Love, Psyche and Soul, Hosted by Danielle Burns, Depth Psychologist
Health & Wellness Podcasts
Love, Psyche and Soul is a radio documentary that shows how archetypal numinous experiences facilitate new areas of awareness during life transitions. Experiences of this nature are often characterized as sacred or mysterious, leaving a person to feel frightened, connected to something larger, or with feelings of joy and wonder. The radio documentary explores archetypal numinous experiences in singers, songwriters, musicians, clinicians, teachers, and authors using prenatal attachment-oriented Jungian analysis and stages of development. The project aims to develop a broad understanding of psychoanalytic approaches to healing through multimedia art, music, and film. By exploring this vital intersection between the arts and sciences in such multisensory works as, writing, narration, choreography, theatre, music, and poetry, we bring consciousness to important issues through the power of healing, storytelling, and participatory action research to transform and renew lives.

Encore Gifts of Inner Wisdom
5/26/2020
Many life experiences are fascinating and awe-inspiring, connecting us to something larger to ourselves or to experiences of joy and wonder. Here, the miraculous is felt within the inner workings of self-awareness, having the potential to shift a prefatory way of being into a deep instinctual relationship with the natural and imaginary world. The unique intrinsic meaning to which each person characterizes these significant moments accounts for the possibility of there being “something more” and is distinctly based on individual experience. In this show host, Danielle Burns, explores the gifts of inner wisdom that validate and orient one’s perception of psychological, spiritual, and creative phenomena. To explore this realm of understanding is to delve into Carl Jung’s theory of archetypes, the essential lens through which each person instinctively and intuitively confronts unconscious self aspects through pivotal and life changing experiences, and connection with numinous material.

Encore The Nature of the Psyche
5/5/2020
Show host, Danielle Burns, takes you on a journey where soul-making takes place as much through images as in personal relationships. Within the soul, dreams evolve with imagination built on fantasies and elements of hidden depth - resonating and affecting the senses with tones of invisible clarity. Dreams tell stories, allowing the soul to emerge among a vivid spectrum of hues, at once discrete and intermingled. Color conveys feelings, tensions and dramas, reflecting both the bitterness of existence and the chaotic nature of the psyche, within a pool of disappointments and moral impurities. A core ingredient within the alchemical composition, color gathers sparks of divinity that heat up and activate the process of personal insight and wisdom needed to liberate the sacred amidst a tyranny of injustice or oppression. In this episode, the vibrancy of color is interwoven with stories of victims and a means of expression amidst countless survival journeys that are lovingly analyzed.

Prenatal Attachment - A 'New Earth' Phenomenon
4/24/2020
An “archetypal numinous encounter” is an involuntary or instinctual stimulus defined as a feminine figure that appears spontaneously in the peripheral or physical awareness of a person from the collective unconscious and produces acute sensations, feelings, and behaviors. In this episode, I describe the function of the archetypal numinous from a physiological and emotional perspective. I share an experience in my life to show how archetypal experiences render meaningful connections with the developing maternal consciousness of women. These experiences support the personal aim to acquire the fundamental essence of prenatal attachment as a New Earth phenomenon. Using Jungian theory, I demonstrate how an arousing numinous stimulus sensitizes a person to the presence of an archetypal dynamic situated in the Earth, and how that leads to changes in human behavior.

Encore The Reality of Stillness
11/29/2019
The dialogue between ego and self-identity are essential to the psyche’s movement. Dialogue resembles the process by which individuals explore the meaning and understanding of time and reality as lived experience in the world. During this process, we are supported by the soul’s movement with time, where the idea of stillness radiates with a broader understanding that becomes a source of meaning. We often find ourselves in situations where the reality of stillness created an opening to a new space of time and reality. Where it appears the door opened for us, certain factors no longer play a significant role. One has the capacity to hold within the center of one’s identity a unique reflection of thought and love while the psyche shifts. These meaningful adventures teach us that the human condition is about asking the question: “what is my responsibility to evolve?” This important question helps us explore the meaning of time and reality as lived experience.

Encore: Disconnected Natura Connected
11/8/2019
The symbolic imagery of nature represents both healthy and destructive forms. Distressing mother dream imagery—the essence of a person’s unresolved interactions with their personal mother—commonly occurs. The inseparable unity with the personal mother may strengthen, producing the only experience of wholeness a person may ever encounter. Giving way to something different, the destructive impulses constellated by such imagery may provide glorious opportunities for healing. The images evoked carry a personal sense of fate. Such imagery may represent the inner mother figure of a person’s own psyche, unconsciously informing how to nurture his or her own development. This domain of psycho-spiritual intersection is grounded in processes of reflection and taking responsibility for what can arise in the emergence of self relationships. A person deepening an understanding of self—pregnant on the precipice of growth—can harness wholeness in the progression toward a new way of being.

Encore: Therapy Psycho Holistic
10/25/2019
Yearning for affection and belonging brings together dynamic strands of fear, voyage, and return for the co-creation of life meaning and purpose. As we plummet into the world of feminine self-discovery and return anew what characterized the first of any archetypal virtues, there is strong evidence supporting the idea that the culmination of these experiences are beneficial to the creation of life meaning and purpose in newer and more profound ways. It is the task of the conscious mind to understand these insightful, meaningful, yet mysterious, aspects of the same archetypal womb in order for the process of self discovery to continue through a variety of thoughts and feelings. Psychological tasks and experiences navigated through dynamic experiences, suspended between spaces of the infinite unknowable Self and the realm of one’s ego consciousness, point to such factors as a mother’s relationship with her beloved child and multidimensional concepts of identity.

Encore: The Reflection Seen in the World
10/11/2019
The reflection seen in the world is a journey. We see life as layered with multiple experiences captured in the reflection of creativity that is grounded in the essence of nature. Nature reflects all the areas we are exploring about ourselves, to include our challenges, our lessons, and the ways in which we are growing beyond the embodied realm. The spiritual reflection holds the key to growth, deepening the process of change and helping us learn the game of life that, in time, renders higher understanding. In this episode, we will learn to navigate this journey, requiring us to tap into the cosmic realm where the sound of nature extends life into other sources of living that take in internal messages rendered upon heeding.

Encore: Celebrating New Beginnings
10/4/2019
When an archetype embodies, it takes on a personally meaningful quality within the inner creative spirit or soul-space of an individual. Here, the archetypal strands that unfold may have the purpose of linking one in a participation mystique that at once allows access to a unitary reality. In this instance, the archetype may surface through the process of projecting a symbol of wholeness representative of the higher self. It may also be that the archetypal field constellates and evokes an image of the divine child within one’s psyche, setting in motion a complex interplay of psychic functions. In this episode, we will explore the interplay of archetypal experiences at the transpersonal level. By cultivating the relationship one has with this area of the psyche and responding straight away to degrees of affect felt within, a person paves the way for heartfelt relationships and the celebration of new beginnings.

Encore: Angels Speak Their Blessings
7/5/2019
The realm constellated by what Carl Jung theorizes as the collective unconscious is ripe with potential to transmit messages stemming from a perceived larger intelligence or power. Thought to represent the core of one’s being, the collective unconscious is the ultimate source of sacred experience, the place where personal and transcendent aspects are inextricably entwined. The form and character of these messages are relevant to the psychology of the dreamers themselves, offering information about what is to come, even when the outcomes do not manifest. But for those who do experience announcing dreams followed by positive news, these messages tend to carry an archetypal quality. This episode explores the collective unconscious realm of the psyche in the fulfillment of purpose driven endeavors. Learn how to serve your purpose with passion and enthusiasm to acheive goals inspired by the higher self – the sacred space within all human beings where blessings flow benevolently.

Encore: Everything a Living Music
6/21/2019
Music is a potent tool for fostering sacred awareness. Its ethereal components suggest a reality that is beyond the ability of words to describe, closely resembling the experience of the divine. The experience of music - the thing itself – is an all-consuming force understood in both emotional and human terms. While separated from day-to-day activities, music is the expression of everything in the physical world, bringing about sensations that are not only archetypal in nature, but a confirmation of its accessibility. This episode presents a perspective on creativity and transcendence as an expression of hidden aspects of the self, particularly as they ignite creative fires in the exploration of self-expression on the path to personal integrity. The dimensions of music are natural aspects of what it means to be fulfilled, and is actualized by removing impediments to expression while simultaneously promoting expansive and transcendent forms of adult development.

Encore: A Love from Deep Within
5/31/2019
Freedom begins with how one interprets their psychological situation and angles that understanding with a certain archetypal inflection known as the divine masculine. In this episode, we will explore the masculine energy within the human psyche that makes possible rational decision making and operates as an unconscious ground of being within the inner world of an individual. The essence of this energy is a supreme revelation erupting with a character of a supernatural music that intoxicates the senses. Creations springing from this masculine area of the psyche add an important value therein, endowing the individual psyche with necessity where it exists alongside with feminine aspects. Psychological maturity is about nurturing, honoring, and balancing both sides of one’s nature. Learn how to awaken both types of energy within yourself in a healthy way. When you bring the energy of divine masculinity into your life, you are connecting with a source of love deep within yourself.
