Work-Life Balance, Stress and the Process of Individuation—Mary McGuiness

October 8, 2022 @ 11:45 am 12:45 pm Australia/Sydney

The individuation process is a term used by Carl Gustav Jung to describe the process of becoming inwardly whole, discovering one’s true self, beyond the mask of the persona and ego-centered life. Individuation generally has a profound healing effect on the person. It is a process that allows us to be our most creative and to fulfil the soul’s deepest desire.

Our busy lives sometimes hinder our growth towards wholeness as the stress reduces our cognitive functioning and emotional intelligence. Work-Life Balance is essential in reducing stress and allowing the process of growth and individuation to occur. We will explore how research has suggested some ‘best practices’ that can help us to prevent stress and improve resilience so that we can function at our best. We will look at these practices and some suggestions Jung gave us on how to facilitate our own growth and individuation.

Type & Stress: Your type and mind-body connections – Katie Jones

November 14, 2021 @ 10:15 am 11:15 am Australia/Sydney

Our minds and bodies are intricately connected, and our brain’s main job is to keep us alive and safe from threats. In this interactive workshop, we will use an understanding of both the Myers Briggs Type Indicator, as well as research about how the mind and body are connected, to better understand unique stressors and ways to proactively and reactively respond to stress through both of these tools.

Developing a deeper understanding of stressors and how to recover from stress is important for self-understanding, leadership, and growth, as well as a key to understanding others. Leaders at all levels can use this information to help create psychologically safer spaces for their teams, which Google’s Project Aristotle found as one of the keys to team success. Stress is inevitable, but it is not the end of the story!

Stress and Resilience in the World of Covid-19 – Mary McGuiness

November 13, 2021 @ 2:45 pm 3:45 pm Australia/Sydney

The world has experienced enormous change and stress in 2020 and 2021. Covid-19 has impacted on our personal lives, family life, work life, social life and, for some, our physical and/or emotional health. People have responded in many different ways. Type theory suggests that each type will experience the stress differently and will likely use different strategies to cope. Let’s explore how the changes have impacted on us to see what impact personality type has had. We will also look more broadly at what Jung and type can tell us about stress and resilience. What does the theory say about stress for each type? And, more importantly, how do we take care of ourselves, and each other, so that we keep some balance in our lives and can learn something from the experience.
