Dr. James Hollis A life of meaning and purpose

Ryan Anderson speaks with Dr. James Hollis about the work of Carl Jung and the exploration of consciousness. They discuss the subjective experiences that lead people to Jung's work, the importance of self-reflection and inner dialogue, and the role of personal responsibility in finding meaning and purpose in life. They also touch on the challenges of the current attention economy and the need to disconnect from distractions to connect with one's true self. The conversation explores the themes of personal responsibility, self-discovery, distraction, and the search for meaning in life. It emphasizes the importance of being present with oneself and cultivating a deeper connection to one's inner voice. The distractions of modern life, such as smart phones and busyness, are seen as obstacles to this process. The conversation also touches on the importance of sleep, gratitude, and the wonders of life. Overall, it encourages listeners to engage in a deeper exploration of themselves and to live with more integrity and purpose.

"The spirit of evil is the negation of the life force by fear. Only boldness can deliver us from fear. If the risk is not taken, the meaning of life is violated." Carl Jung
