Ep 58 Where Psychology and Mythology Meets Ancient Wisdom with Dr. Catherine Svehla
How can we apply mythology to better our well-being?
In episode 58, Dr. Catherine Svehla, a storytelling scholar and consultant in the field of mythology, and creativity coach explains the importance of old stories in understanding the human experience.
She discusses how she helps artists and creative individuals through the exploration of old myths which she describes as the foundation of our world- the source of our ideas, beliefs, values and institutions.
We discuss psychology, specifically the works of Freud, and Jung and how mythic exploration has therapeutic potential. We talk about how engagement and personal reflection on the relevance of these timeless tales in addressing existential questions can influence one’s personal creative journey.
