ORIGINAL VOICE ®Getting Unstuck, The Five Heroic Tasks of Full Creative Life, a five day training Intensive with sole teacher, Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estés

“ORIGINAL VOICE®—Getting Unstuck: The Five Heroic Tasks of Full Creative Life concentrates on the in-depth study of personal witness to the challenges of life that adversely affect the creative force— and how to free the creative force and put it to work as each individual is called.

The training moves down past linear logic alone, and into the depths of the personal and collective unconscious, to find great gifts in what Jung called, “the non-rational,” a clear but different logic that becomes apparent during descent into the unconscious—through dreams, anamnesis, symbolic inquiry. This brings insights, connections, negative complexes as well as positive introjects... to light/consciousness again, or for the first time. In this training we learn there is a time to rest, a time to calm and gather oneself, a time to note the wilder impulses rising in oneself, a time to face oneself and tell the harsh and gracious truths needed. All in order to face monstrous and/or radiant forces and bring them into service for one’s creative life.
