Lecture: LIVING THE UNLIVED LIFE
Friday, MARCH 16, 2012 at 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM

Dr. Ruhl's lecture explores the essential task in the second half of life - rectifying the loss of abandoned dreams and unrealized potentials to achieve our ultimate life meaning and purpose. What is unlived life? It consists of those potential aspects of ourselves that have not adequately entered into our experience. We all carry with us a vast inventory of unlived life. For everything we choose (or that has been chosen for us), something remains "unchosen." We can hear the distant drumbeat of life in the mutterings that go on in the back of our minds: "Woulda-coulda- shoulda."

Workshop: THE POWER OF THE SYMBOLIC LIFE
Saturday, MARCH 17, 2012 at 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM

Drawing upon the myth of the twin stars in the Gemini constellation, this workshop explores the unity that exits behind every duality. The ancient Greek myth of Castor and Pollux has extraordinary wisdom and relevance for us today. Dr. Ruhl will present this timeless story as a prototype and navigation point for all humans on the journey into wholeness. This workshop will provide practical tools, drawn from Jungian psychological concepts, to help you:

  • Surrender old limitations
  • Enliven friendships, relationships and career
  • Unlock new life options and hidden talents
  • Seize the "dangerous" opportunities of midlife
  • Master the art of being truly alive in the present moment
  • Revitalize a connection with the higher Self, and thereby achieve peace and purpose in your mature years
