EP12 The Intersection of Dance and Jungian Psychology with David Pressault

Boundless Body

We welcome David Purcell, a Jungian analyst and former professional dancer, to discuss the fascinating intersection of dance and Jungian psychology.

David shares how his background in contemporary dance and a deep interest in mythology led him to Jung's work. He emphasizes the significance of imagination, feeling, and sensitivity in men's mental health.

The conversation highlights the importance of reconnecting fragmented aspects of the psyche and the role of dreams in this process.

David and Brian advocate for men to explore their interiority and attune to their bodies and feelings. They caution against the extremes of dominant and neutering masculinity, promoting instead a balanced and embodied approach to masculinity.

Join us for this insightful discussion on the complexities of men's mental health and the transformative power of Jungian psychology.
