Sophie Seale is a Jungian psychoanalyst trained at the Zurich C. G. Jung Institute. Currently she is working in private practice in Luxembourg for individual and couples therapy.

She is also a registered Dance/Movement therapist and holds yoga as a precious practice towards the integration of body, mind and spirit.

For this years’ YCL, Sophie choose the topic of YOGA & SELF-EXPLORATION followed by Q&A.

Yoga & Self-Exploration

Why do we find ourselves investing in a yoga practice? No need for words to answer the question: our bodies tell upfront that beyond stretching and strengthening yoga also creates a mental inner shift which can expand our worldview.

Already in the early part of the 20th century, C.G.Jung, the great explorer of depth psychology, upon studying eastern philosophies, came to advocate yoga as a powerful gateway to healing disruptions between body, mind, and spirit. For Jung, these disruptions were caused by western society’s modern lifestyle. The unprecedented upsurge of yoga studios in the West since then tends to prove his findings right.

This talk will discuss what yoga can do, to not only alleviate the stress and anxiety our ever increasing fast-paced lifestyle creates,  but also support and restore the inner harmony, self care and well being necessary for a mature and resilient personality.

Open to all levels.
