A Dialogue with Carl Jung: Do You Dare to Know Your Dark Side?
In a world that demands us to project an image of constant perfection, what do we do with everything we hide in the darkness of our psyche? What happens to our anger, our envy, our fears, and our secrets?In this special episode of Mente Aprende, Dr. Jorge Franco travels back in time to converse with one of the most influential and revolutionary figures in psychology: Dr. Carl Gustav Jung. Together, they delve into one of his most powerful and relevant concepts: the Shadow.Discover why ignoring our "dark side" doesn't eliminate it; instead, we project it onto others, generating conflict, polarization, and deep inner discomfort. Learn how the courageous act of looking at, accepting, and integrating our Shadow is the only path to "individuation": the process of becoming the complete, authentic, and whole human being you are meant to be.In this deep dialogue, we explore: • What exactly is the Shadow, and why does everyone have one? • How does the Shadow manifest in our daily lives, in our relationships, and in society? • Practical tools, like dream analysis and self-observation, to begin a dialogue with your dark side. • Why embracing your Shadow doesn't make you a bad person, but a whole person.This isn't just an episode; it's an invitation to a journey of radical self-discovery. True healing, as Jung would say, doesn't come from light, but from making the darkness conscious.Don't forget to subscribe and follow the conversation on all our social media channels.
