Journaling Toward Wholeness, A Workshop With Susan Tiberghien

29 Jun 2024
PAST EVENTS

There is something in the depths of our being that hungers for wholeness.

                                              - Thomas Merton

The attainment of wholeness requires one to stake one’s whole being. Nothing less will do.
                                              - C. G. Jung

My journal became a mirror in which I could see and hear my truth resonating in my own daily experience.
                                              - Marion Woodman

Wholeness had been the goal of spiritual seekers from earliest times. What did these seekers – from Hestia and Plato to Jung and Merton – mean by wholeness? How can we approach our longing for wholeness through journaling? How can we today radiate wholeness in the world around us?

This workshop will have three parts:

Part 1: What is wholeness? From Hestia and Plato to Jung and Merton, we will see how wholeness is defined as the revelation of the oneness of everything.

Part 2: How can we answer our longing for wholeness? We will look at how Jung and Merton journaled toward wholeness. We too will journal and actively imagine our wholeness.

Part 3: How can we plant seeds of wholeness? We will find ways to radiate our wholeness in our broken world today. 

There will be handouts and time for writing in each part, for following our own way toward wholeness and to sharing it. I hope you will join and contribute . . . to our oneness!
