Jung discovered this method between the years of 1913 and 1916, a period of disorientation and intense inner turmoil which he called his confrontation with the unconscious. He searched for a method to heal himself from within, through the power of the imagination. Active imagination is a dialogue with different parts of yourself that live in the unconscious. In some way it is similar to dreaming, except that you are fully awake and conscious during the experience.
If we honestly want to find our own wholeness, to live our individual fate as fully as possible; if we truly want to abolish illusion on principle and find the truth of our own being, however little we like to be the way we are, then there is nothing that can help us so much in our endeavour as active imagination.

When washing my dishes, I have imagined being interviewed on TV. For example, the interviewer might ask me what the causes of depression are, and solutions. Absolutely brilliant inspired answers would flow through me.

This is how I stopped having panic attacks and I didn’t even realize it. I used to have bad anxiety and panic attacks as a teenager. Over time every time I felt the anxiety coming up, I’d begin imagining a dialogue between logical self and my fearful self. And in these daydreams my logical self was in a white lab coat and glasses in a dark office sitting behind a desk, and my fearful self was the patient expressing his fears and symptoms. I started being talked down from panic attack until one day I just stopped having them

I often imagine I’m the only soul in existence. Everything and everyone that surrounds me are but mere reflections of myself. This is an experience for myself by myself to avoid being lonely in the void of nothingness.

I've lived most of my life doing this. I grew up alone so I used to have to talk to myself a lot. Than I would imagine myself in alternative worlds where different teachers would help me learn new things about life. Its funny I learned a lot more from them than most people in real life. It can seem like mental illness to most but if you let them know what your doing they tend to understand at least a little. I've sought council from all different kinds of beings challenged demons till they revealed they were angels & wrapped myself tightly in several deep wisdom filled journeys. It can be fun. If your sane going a little mad can actually be quite healthy. Everyone should be atleast a little crazy.

For anyone struggling with fear of facing the unconscious I tell you what helped me. Approach you’re unconscious from a place of love and friendliness. If you focus on feeling love when approaching your scary unconscious characters I guarantee they will no longer scare. You have to love and accept them for who they are because they are apart of YOU. When you focusing on loving scary unconscious material they will drop any attempts to attack you and they will respect you. They will be receptive to friendly discussion. If you approach them with fear they will feed on it attack you. It’s sounds cheesy but choose to love them, and at the very least they will respect you while being open to civil discussion.

“Until you become conscious, the unconscious will direct your life and you will call it fate.” - Yung This phrase made sense the first time I entered this state of introspection, as it seems to me it was the condition that Da Vinci ''was'
There is a very interesting article by Alain de Botton about this heightened state of consciousness, mentioning Da Vinci

I use active imagination all the time, I use it to try and solve my inner problems I am going through and something I have noticed that in these sessions where I’m essentially imagining my conversations with people in my life, I tend to be way more articulate and able to present myself in a more clearer way, than I do in real life and with conversations with people in my life.

Active Imagination is something I, and I'm sure other people, have been practicing for a while without actually knowing the term for it. Thank you for making this video going into detail about the subject. Not that I care, but I feel less crazy. My art is a direct reflection of my dreams and active imagination. And thanks for the resources in the video as well. I'm gonna be more diligent in my practices.

Having ADHD, being introvert and having almost no friends in my life, talking with myself in my mind is one of the insane things i do in my life to keep me sane, not quite the same thing described in the video but it's still a way of learning about myself.
Doing this saved me from going into deep depression, i still think i'm depressed but in a much more superficial way than i once was in, i used to always be in a downer mood, but not anymore. These conversations aren't me talking with myself literally, they're usually me imagining myself someone asking me something, and then i start talking, i discovered many things about myself that i would only find out if other people confronted me about it otherwise.
Beyond the psychological effects this does, it actually helped me learn english. Since i had no one to talk to in english, when i was starting to learn it i'd talk in english in my mind, and whenever i hit a roadblock i'd try to find ways to fix it, and it's how i learned english by myself with the help of video games as a kid.

I always have the seconds of maximum creativity when I'm about to fall asleep. Not quite awake but also not quite slumbering yet. I wonder if there's a name for this phenomenon and if other people also share this experience. It's so powerful to the point that I get lyrics for new songs and plot structure for novels.

Did this coupled with breathing exercises for about 3 hours once. I was walking out of a dense Forrest on a path that climbed many small hills in a meadow. It was easily the most vivid experience I had had up to that point and after walking awhile I decided to sit and meditate at the top of one of the endless hills. After a while someone told me to get up. Around me were three shadow people. I asked who they were and one introduced himself as the creeping death and the other two as the fearful and noble deaths. I asked why the others were not speaking and he told me he spoke because I was currently in his domain. He was very insistent that I get up and keep walking the path. He said that one day one of them would come for me but for now I needed to keep moving. I walked for a short while after that talk but before anything else happened my then infant son woke up from his nap and pulled me out of it. It was insanely realistic and I still remember it vividly feels crazy to talk about.

Once I was complaining in my head about the neverending laundry and dishes...I heard a female voice saying, "at least you have clothes on your back and food on the table." It was very humbling. My mind went to the struggles my Irish ancestors had and I realized that I should be grateful.

I cried so much listening to this… my culture insists on ignoring these “voices” as they are another entity seperate from me. But as I grew older I learned that these are in fact parts of ME and I NEED to understand them…. This video just made me cry because it just relates so much and doesn’t alienate the inspiration we have.

In my life I have been addicted to many things. Drugs, Sex, Internet. After watching this video, I am quite confident that I need to use this technics in my whole life. Because my addicton seem to be so powerful by all this 13 years.
Every day I feel feelings like emptiness or beeing unreal.
Hope to connect all my archetypes and personalities living inside me.
Greetings from Poland.
You are very smart person.
All videos are very interesting and clever.
great respect for You and all good for You :)
Thank you

When I watched Inception for the first time, I thought I was going crazy, seeing similar dream techniques to my own on a screen. Years later, I now actively write fiction, and have used this technique in writing since I became what I consider profficient in the art.

Throughout history scientists and artists have used their dreamscapes to create and make groundbreaking discoveries, it’s as if our dreams are part of grand structure that relates to the entire universe, somehow knowing more than we do. If only more could access that world in a conscious state, I wonder what the world would be

Seven years ago, literally due to an accident, i started drawing... i was so absorbed in reality that i went into a deep place (unconscious)... after the first 4 or 5 drawings, i looked at them and i was surprised and thought: "who drew 'this'?" since then I find myself in that 'place', alone in the room, completely surrendered to creativity, and putting in my drawings the various visits and dialogues that are present through the unconscious. it's a lonely path... however it allows me to cleanse the ancestral cells. I like this channel, thanks for sharing. greetings from Portugal.

I'm jumping back and forth between Jung's Red Book, Archetypes and the Collective Unconscious, and Ellenberger's The Discovery of the Unconscious. My point is, to write and narrate this video took a tremendous amount of study. Thank you for your effort! I can't imagine how long it took you to prepare for this.
