The Dominion Psyche, the Reciprocity Psyche and Borderland Consciousness: The Compensatory Thrust of the Collective Unconscious to Heal the Western Psyche’s Suicidal Split from Wholeness

Borderland Consciousness and the Global Warming Crisis- Interview with Jungian Analyst Jerome Bernstein

Jerome Bernstein’s extensive work with the Navajo and Hopi people has deeply informed his clinical understanding of the Western psyche’s suicidal dissociation from Nature.

In this interview with Bonnie Bright, Mr. Bernstein discusses how this dissociation has led to Global Warming, and he explains how an emerging compensatory “Borderland consciousness” acts as the meeting point between the Dominion psyche of the West and the Reciprocity psyche of Native peoples.   To view the video go here: http://www.depthpsychologyallianceu.com/courses/earth-climate-dreams-jerome-bernstein-video-interview.  Then, click “Enroll for Free” and sign up.
