Thanks! I am curious about jungian ideas but have always had a hard time getting through any of his work. The shorter essays and chapters are easier for me but the longer stuff is hard for me to get into especially if it takes more than a day to read.
If you have an interest, maybe you can find a different method to discovering Jungian ideas than reading his books. We all learn in different ways, so no need to force yourself into something that isn’t working for you at the moment.
I can understand issues with reading. Personally, my problem with getting all my info from reading is that I’m very slow and I don’t have a lot of uninterrupted time in the day to read. Hell, I’ve been reading Jung’s autobiography for months and am just nearing the end now. I guess I sometimes get distracted into reading other things too, so I’m all over the place lol.
If you like listening to podcasts & interviews, there is a really good one that I found. I’ve listened to almost all of the interviews and there are some real gems in there. The website is
