Jung Whatsapp Group
Hi there,
I am looking to start a WhatsApp Group principally based around Jung's ideas, but if possible incorporating Buddhism and Christianity too.
The idea isn’t to create anything overly structured or formal, but rather a space—probably on Whatsapp—where people can drop in and out of conversation when they have the time and energy, while still maintaining a consistent thread of depth and honesty.
A few things that feel important for this to work:
- An ability (or at least willingness) to move beyond surface-level persona early on
- Comfort sitting with opposing ideas without needing to collapse into one side
- Genuine interest in Jung, Buddhism, Christianity, or related perspectives—but grounded in personal experience, not just theory
- Openness to vulnerability, without turning the space into venting or seeking to be “fixed”
For context, I’ve personally found these frameworks really useful in understanding my own codependent patterns and how they’ve developed, and that kind of grounded, self-reflective exploration is very much the spirit of what we’re aiming for.
If this resonates with you, feel free to message me and we can have a conversation first to see if it’s a good fit. But please note, it’s not therapy, just individuals attempting to work things out. It would be an informal space, for people to add and contribute to at their own leisure, one to make friends and inspire new thinking/ perspectives, largely based around Jung's collected works.
I feel that such spaces are very difficult and rare to find beyond surface level talk and it would be great to get a range of international students of Jung to provide as much wisdom and curiosity as possible. A range of introverts/ extroverts is ideal but its not essential to get the discussion flowing.
Millennials would be preferred because we believe this (our) generation is going through an interesting psychological development currently. I believe that the pressures of maturation into adulthood have / are very difficult currently and whilst there is a great attitude to learn more about ourselves from within, it is not being mirrored on the outside (due to economic realities). That being said I'm of course not bias against any age group.
The group should be no pressure, and no expectations—just seeing if the right few people might want to build something meaningful together.
If you feel interested drop me a message with a brief intro and ill set something up.
Thanks
