WelcomeIreland, rich in myth, spirit, and archetypal significance, is a land where the past is inextricably woven with the present. Its beauty and mystique once again provide the setting for our annual Jung in Ireland programs.

These programs, open to individuals from all fields as well as mental-health professionals, offer an exceptional opportunity for you to meet and exchange ideas with others from diverse backgrounds, interact with an internationally known, dynamic faculty of Jungian analysts and authors, and experience the magical and alchemical setting of Ireland.

We invite you to join us for one or both of these unique offerings!

APRIL 13–19, 2015 COUNTY LIMERICKDevotion & Betrayal: A Program with the Monks of Glenstal Abbey

APRIL 19–26, 2015 COUNTY KERRYResilience, Hope & the Gift of Adversity: A Seminar


Devotion & Betrayal: A Program with the Monks of Glenstal AbbeyApril 13-19, 2015 County Limerick

Join us at Glenstal Abbey and engage in stimulating discussion and dialogue with Jungian analysts, internationally known Biblical scholar Amy Jill Levine and the erudite monks of Glenstal. During the course of our program, we will have the opportunity to enjoy the serene surroundings of the abbey, visit its extraordinary Icon Chapel, join the monks for a festive dinner, and have ample time to walk about the grounds.

Additionally, those interested are invited to participate in (or observe) services that include traditional Gregorian chant sung by members of Glenstal’s famous choir. A highlight of the week will be experiencing Nóirín Ní Riain and the beauty of her voice. When not at the abbey, our home for the week will be the deluxe Dunraven Arms Hotel, located in the charming village of Adare.



Devotion & BetrayalWe can be devoted to many things: family, friends, community, God, our work, causes, and our country. But what does this actually mean? To most of us, it means commitment, loyalty, and faithfulness. Alternatively, when we are let down, lied to, or disappointed by those we feel devoted to, we often experience this as a betrayal.

On a personal level, when we do something for ourselves, which may mean rejecting the traditions and values that have been instilled in us by our families and others, this may also be a betrayal.

On a spiritual level, can we be devoted to our faith and also be true to ourselves in a way that goes against the laws or teachings of our traditions? Or, do we have to blindly obey our religious leaders to prove our devotion? Does deviation from doctrine and ritual mean a betrayal of our religion?

On an archetypal level, one might say that this dilemma began with Abraham, whom legend and tradition has it, broke his father’s idols, left home, and paved the way for monotheism as a religious path. Additionally, one could say that Abraham betrayed his son Isaac in order to show his devotion to God. And the most famous disloyalty in Western history is, of course, Judas’ betrayal of Jesus.

Are our commitments without end? Where does devotion end and betrayal begin? Must they be considered opposites? Can we be devoted to someone and also “betray” them? Can we be loving and devoted to our partners yet at the same time have other intimate relationships — romantic or otherwise? Can we be true to our own process of Individuation without some sort of necessary betrayal along the way?

During the course of this program, we will explore these complex questions together.


GLENSTAL ABBEY, home to a unique community of monks (with many renowned scholars among them), is a Benedictine monastery on the southwest coast of Ireland. It is known for its hospitality, world-famous choir, remarkable collection of Russian Icons, and prestigious public school. The abbey sits on 350 acres, with streams, lakes, woodland paths, and an enchanting walled garden. Surrounding a castle built in the romantic Norman style, it also houses one of the most important private libraries in Ireland, with a substantial collection of antiquarian books (many dating back to the 15th century) on Irish history, Irish literature, biography, and art.

This (optional) daylong outing will be led by Nóirín Ní Riain and Brother Colmán, who will share the secrets and treasures of the Burren.

Resilience, Hope & the Gift of AdversityCounty KerryApril 19-26, 2015

Join us in County Kerry, affectionately known in Ireland as “God’s Kingdom.” Located in southwest Ireland and facing the Atlantic Ocean, it features the famed Dingle and Iveragh Peninsulas. Our 2015 Seminar will be based in the town of Killarney, County Kerry’s most vibrant town. In this seminar, we will explore the themes of resilience and hope and how the experience of adversity, although unwelcome, nevertheless has the potential to enrich our lives and turn our so-called lead into gold.

Our week includes the option to join in two unique excursions: a journey to the Iveragh Peninsula guided by renowned Irish archaeologist Michael Gibbons, and an outing to the remote and rarely visited Beara Peninsula – led by Celtic expert Rob Vance.


Resilience, Hope, & the Gift of Adversity

What is resilience? Is it something we are born with or can it be developed? Why is it that some of us are able to bounce back after a major setback, often becoming stronger, while others cannot seem to survive life’s disappointments. Some of us are able to overcome adversity, lack of success in life, and rejection in relationships yet not allow it to forever define our lives. Notwithstanding catastrophe, a devastating trauma, or the kind of personal tragedy that may scar us forever, some of us may utilize adversity to grow, find spiritual meaning, and enhance our lives.

Does resilience mean forgiving God, our parents, or others for our personal tragedies and pain? In the face of adversity, can acceptance help us move on, change, create new visions, goals, and create a more meaningful outlook on life?

Examples abound of famous individuals overcoming adversity and setbacks in life – including artists, influential world figures, performers, athletes and authors. Well-known people like Victor Frankl, Elie Wiesel, and Nelson Mandela not only survived war, trauma, and personal tragedy, but were able to find joy in life and be inspirations for others. And of course, Carl Jung confronted his personal demons to create the Red Book and pioneer a creative approach to the psyche.

Through a combination of presentations and experiential workshops, our faculty will help us understand more about our own psyches, the plasticity of our brains, and the potential we all have for change and finding hope and creativity in the face of despair. Drawing on the spiritual and the psychological, the physiological and the philosophical, it is possible to look inward for direction and move from life’s setbacks to personal transformation.

A human being can bear almost everything and no one knows when and where happiness will overcome him.”— In the Illuminated Dark:
