The most difficult aspect of becoming a whole person psychologically, i.e. becoming authentic and real, requires an honest and often painful engagement with disowned and split off parts of our personality. We cannot grow into our full potential unless we are willing to make such an effort. This seminar will explore the ways and means for such a transformation.

Seminar will meet Saturday Feb 21 10am to 3pm in room 105 Seelye Hall, Smith College. To register either sign your name and tel# on a sheet available next Friday (2/6) at the lecture about Contempt & Shame in Seelye Hall Rm#106 or call my Home number 413-253-9343 and leave a message with your name and tel#. The suggested contribution is $30 but but give what you can. You will be welcome.

She taught literature at both Wellesley and Mt. Holyoke. After a year living in Rome, she became interested in classical art and became a museum docent at both Mt.

She has had a year of Jungian therapy but has done most of her psychological reading on her own.
