Why Good People Do Bad Things: Revisiting the Shadow

Lecture: Friday, Nov. 14, 2008, 7 to 9 p.m.
Trinity Church, 8th and James, Seattle
$20 members, $30 nonmembers
2 CEUs offered ($10)

For each of us there are energies, motives, agendas which operate outside our conscious control and sometimes are contrary to our professed values. These energies, which Jung collectively identified as the Shadow, might best be defined not as evil, but as that which makes us uncomfortable with ourselves.  Such energies represent an enormous invitation for greater consciousness, for living more ethically, and whose integration brings a greater possibility of wholeness. This program will define and illustrate the many ways in which the Shadow operates in personal and social life.

Important: For both Hollis events, the normal parking lots will be closed. See the following map for the alternative lot to use. Tell the attendant that you are there for an event at Trinity church.

Trinity Church, 8th and James, Seattle

What is our personal Shadow?  How may we come to know that which is by definition unconscious within us? A series of exercises and questions will help provide greater self awareness. Please bring a note book and pen with which to journal.
