The Body, the Subtle Body, and the Psyche with Erica Lorentz
New Thinking AllowedAug 10, 2026
Jungian analyst Erica Lorentz joins Jeffrey Mishlove to argue that Western culture has turned the body into a 'shadow', a neglected and distrusted part of ourselves, and that Carl Jung's methods offer a way back into embodied healing. She describes how Authentic Movement, a Jungian form of free association through the body, helped cure her chronic headaches through a sudden kundalini-like energy release. The conversation ranges into the 'subtle body', the imaginal realm of the Sufis, a client who believes she communicates with her cancer, levitating mystics, and the possibility that we survive death in a subtle body.
