How do individuals turn their lives around after addiction? Father Bill W. takes listeners on a journey through the depths of Carl Jung's psychology in the latest episode of his podcast, focusing on the challenges and transformations encountered in recovery. With a blend of personal stories and scholarly insights, Father Bill W. unpacks the concept of 'Living Between Worlds,' drawing from Dr. James Hollis' book to explore how understanding our psyche can guide us through life's transitions.
He highlights the importance of listening to our inner selves, or 'daimon,' which Jung describes as a spirited entity bridging the conscious and unconscious realms. Father Bill W. discusses how aligning our ego with our soul's purpose can lead to a more meaningful life, particularly in recovery. He explores the duality of human nature, where fear and lethargy often become our greatest adversaries.
The podcast encourages a dialogue between the ego's perception of the world and the soul's deeper understanding of life, emphasising the need for spiritual practices like prayer and meditation to foster this connection. The episode also delves into the hero's journey, a metaphor for overcoming life's hurdles and achieving personal growth. Father Bill W. draws parallels between this journey and the path of recovery, urging listeners to embrace their spiritual experiences and let go of fear-driven behaviours.
With light humour and profound reflections, this episode offers a unique perspective on how depth psychology can enrich one's recovery journey. Are you ready to explore your own 'second half of life' and discover what your soul has to say? Tune in to find out more.
