Dr Sheri Kling – Midwifing Wholeness: Transformative Insights from Jung and Whitehead

Can we understand both cosmos and psyche in a way that promotes integration rather than fragmentation??

Our present societal landscape, particularly in the West and the United States, is marked by fragmentation and division across multiple dimensions. Societally, there is significant polarization. Interpersonally, many individuals face growing loneliness and isolation. Intrapersonally, there is a surge in antidepressant use and a clear link between early adverse experiences and adult challenges. This highlights a deep-rooted crisis in how individuals perceive their existence and connections with others.

The prevailing worldview of materialistic dualism contributes significantly to this fragmentation, emphasizing separation over integration. To foster a sense of wholeness, we must seek an understanding of both the cosmos and the psyche that unifies rather than divides.

Whether the topic is politics, racism, or environmental destruction, the hard truth is that we cannot effect a change in the popular imagination with facts and reason alone. In this talk, Sheri D. Kling will offer a new way to look at both cosmos and psyche that reveals a Reality that shows us that we matterwe belong, and we can experience positive change.
