A Jungian Wisdom School of the Heart Presents – Earth, Cosmos, Psyche: Navigating Planetary Initiation

The Practice of Planetary Wisdom (Workshop)

The session on Saturday will offer the opportunity to dive deeper into the concepts explored the previous evening, particularly with regard to the idea of the evolution of consciousness and its relation to the nature of planetary Wisdom. It will also include a simple but powerful cosmological qigong practice along with some experiential exercises from the ‘Work that Reconnects’ developed by Joanna Macy.

Sean Kelly, Ph.D. is Professor of Philosophy, Cosmology, and Consciousness at the California Institute of Integral Studies (CIIS). He is the author of Becoming Gaia: On the Threshold of Planetary Initiation; Coming Home: The Birth and Transformation of the Planetary Era; and Individuation and the Absolute: Hegel, Jung, and the Path toward Wholeness; co-editor (with Richard Tarnas) of Psyche Unbound: Essays in Honor of Stanislav Grof; (with Donald Rothberg) of Ken Wilber in Dialogue: Conversations with Leading Transpersonal Thinkers; and (with Sam Mickey and Adam Robbert) of The Variety of Integral Ecologies: Nature, Culture, and Knowledge in the Planetary Era. Along with his more academic pursuits, Sean has trained intensively in the Chinese internal arts (taiji, bagua, and xingyi) and has been teaching taiji since 1990. He has also worked closely with Joanna Macy and is a trained facilitator in The Work that Reconnects.
