5.0 out of 5 stars I really enjoyed this tape..., April 21, 2000

This review is from: Holding the Tension of the Opposites (Audio Cassette)

Marion Woodman is wonderful and wise and her work is very thought provoking. She talks about our relationship to our shadow sides, the dark aspects of ourselves and how this gets developed, why it's important, how to integrate it with the rest of our lives. She is a Jungian analyst and teaches through the use of metaphors and dreams. Some of what she was saying about addiction was particularly insightful. At the end of her lecture she takes questions from the audience and this helps to further develop the ideas she is presenting. I thoroughly enjoyed this tape and look forward to listening to more. Also check out her work with Robert Bly - I love what they do with their interpretations of fairy tales and the way they tell stories together and are so invested in helping people to understand what goes on beneath the surface of their lives.
