Elixir of Life: The Flowing Waters of our Soul and of our Planet |
||
| Can the planet sustain the use of water that humans require, or is the burden too great, the demand far too large, the pressure on the earth too extreme? Can individuals even in our hectic and overly mediatized times find ways to bathe their souls in the waters of life? These are critical questions that impact every corner of the world today.In this seminar, we will look at the water issue from the psychological and the ecological points of view. At the center of this discussion is the issue of “psychecology.” Approaching ecology from a psychological perspective is a new area of increasing importance and emphasis in analytical psychology and in other schools of psychology that are sensitive to planetary issues. The name of this interdisciplinary work, “psychecology,” has been created by Jungian analyst Brigitte Egger, who holds a doctorate in ecology from the ETH in Zurich as well as a diploma in analytical psychology. Psychecology weds ecology and depth psychology, doubling the perspective by taking outer and inner nature up on an equal footing.
Join us on April 4th for this 3 hour internet seminar live from Zurich as we discuss the root of the environmental crisis as a psychic crisis and explores the psychic and symbolic dimensions of ecological issues and themes. |

Psychopharmacology can be a terribly complex subject. Serotonin, norepinephrine, dopamine, acetylcholine, presynaptic receptors, postsynaptic receptors, up regulation, down regulation and an endless array of neuropathways can make your head spin and your heart sink. While all these theories are important, many of the core concepts can be distilled down to a very understandable and clinically useful set of constructs.
Psychiatric medications can be separated into 4 key groupings: Uppers, Downers, Squeezers, and Heavy Downers. Uppers include antidepressants and stimulants. Downers are sedatives and sleeping agents. Squeezers are mood stabilizers and antipsychotics, and Heavy Downers are high dose antipsychotics. Categorized in these ways, psychopharmacology can be broken down into quickly understandable concepts and clinically useful strategies.
