Lesson 3: Illuminating Dark Emotions:
About this Essay:
A lack of emotional clarity can create a doppelganger that can destroy your life.
In the previous essays, we explored the origin of life’s negativities and the various efforts to overcome them. That’s prepared us for Lesson 3. Here we’ll investigate what our emotions can reveal to us about who we are, as well as the subconscious narratives that give birth to those emotions. How are we to gain insight into our obscure emotions? As the psychologist Theodore Reik recommended, we must learn to listen with the "third ear."
Does all this seem to be a rather circuitous route to the mystical? Not at all, for as C.G. Jung observed, “One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious.”

Small Group Meetings:
These ongoing groups have, on average, ten or fewer participants each week. Each group meets once a week for at least 2.5 hours. We won’t know the exact times until we survey participants, like you, who have a potential interest. Weekdays, from 7:00PM to 9:30, have always been popular, especially Monday and Tuesday evening. Sundays from 2:00PM to 4:30PM is also a popular time. Weekday mornings are also a possibility. What days and times might be convenient for you?
The cost is $35 a session (or only $120 a month.) Most of our groups meet online, via Zoom. Some meet in person at our center in Louisville, KY. Therefore, wherever you live you can attend.
