Jung (Monday, 01/30/2006, 4th Period)
CLASS IS CLOSED
The door, as usual, is closed in order to minimize disruptions from the hallway, and Jenny's got coffee and doughnuts sitting up on her desk by the sign-in sheet. "Today we're going to be talking a bit about Individuation.Yay, Wikipedia! And textbooks saved from college courses. Individuation is also related to developmental psychology, specifically Erik Erikson's psychosocial stages of development, but we'll only be dealing with the concept in relation to analytical psych.
Generally, individuation is the conscious realization of your subconscious personality traits--some people might say your "true self," but I say it's the parts of yourself that are maybe shoved to the side or unexamined. You know? Everyone has them. In the process, you work on both developing your own identity and becoming a whole person. So it's pretty obvious where the term individuation comes from, right?
Couple of vocabulary terms for you guys to know: Egotism is defined here as a realization of your strengths, but a lack of awareness of your weaknesses. Remember, to become a whole person and reduce your subconscious conflicts, you've got to be aware of both. Self-depreciation is the exact opposite--realizing your weaknesses, but ignoring your strengths. Everyone's got both.
So, based on your Myers-Briggs results from our last class session, the one before the quiz, gimme an idea of both how you feel about the concept of individuation in general, and how it applies to yourself."
OOC: I do not have webmail access during the day; the only address I have access to is my work e-mail (which, for obvious reasons, I don't have LJ comment notifications going to). If you need something from me, please ping me in the voice mail or e-mail links below. I will try to check that once in the morning and once in the afternoon, depending on how busy I am at work. I'll check it at least once every morning; however. When I get home at night, I don't log onto LJ or e-mail until after my son has been put to bed around 7:30 or 8 CST (on most nights; however, there are a few exceptions). My IM is in my userinfo and I'll make a point of being accessible on it when I'm at home and online. Tuesday nights I am generally inaccessible; I might be online after my dance lesson, but I need at least one night for non-FH time. Luckily, none of Jenny's classes are run on Tuesdays.
