Carl Jung Inspired Active Imagination Meditation

Tess Callahan Season 1 Episode 7

“Active Imagination" is a technique designed by Carl Jung to access subconscious wisdom.  Jung recorded his waking visions induced by active imagination in his extraordinary illustrated journal, The Red Book. His meditative technique was recreated by MJ Dorian on his podcast Creative Codex. For deeper instruction, read "Inner Work: Using Dreams and Active Imagination for Personal Growth" by Robert A. Johnson. This meditation is a deep dive to be undertaken with care. If you have a history of schizophrenia or psychotic disorder, consult with your doctor before using this meditation. Relax and enjoy.
