Approval Name: Bonnie Nish Degree: Master of Arts Education Title of Thesis: Finding Voice Examining Committee: Chair: Allan McKinnon, Associate Professor Carolyn Mamchur Senior Supervisor Professor Celeste Snowber Supervisor Professor David Paterson External Examiner Associate Dean, Undergraduate, Education Simon Fraser University Date Defended/Approved: November 15, 2012 ii Partial Copyright Licence iii Abstract Individuation, as defined by Jung, is a process that we go through which allows us to examine who we are as we delve into our shadows. These shadows both shape and constrain us as teachers, as partners, as parents and as human beings. As we seek to uncover all the hidden meanings, we throw off the constraints imposed upon us by the world. We are then able to mine our inner depths in order that we may discover our authentic selves. Having gone through this process, we as educators and artists, have some profound messages to bring to our students, and the world around us. Through the use of both poetic inquiry and autobiographical inquiry I illustrate how Jung’s theory of the process of individuation works. I examine my own process of individuation as I delve into my own shadows and examine my turbulent relationship with my mother, before and after her death. Keywords: Individuation; poetic inquiry; autobiographical inquiry; authentic self; emotional abuse; youth at-risk iv Dedication For my Father, Abraham Nish, who gave me my words. For my children, Sebastian, Rebecca and Alexandra who are my words. For my family and friends who sustain and help me in the moments of silence to find where my words hide. I love you all. v Acknowledgements Thank you to Professor Carolyn Mamchur for waiting with patience and caring for me to complete my journey. Carolyn’s class was the beginning. With Carolyn’s belief, guidance and patience I was able to embark on what was to be one of the most painful and rewarding excursions of my life. Thank you to Professor Celeste Snowber for adding her voice to the mix and pushing me to continue to explore. Thank you for giving me the gift to play and the power of expressing my own voice. To my children, Sebastian, Rebecca and Alexandra. You are my inspiration always and what keeps me searching for truth. To my father, Abraham Nish, who believed I could do this from the start. I miss you every day. To my brother, Jeff Nish for his continual support and love. To Phyllis Bassett, my dear friend and colleague, who lent her hand, her heart and her keen eye to help edit whenever she could. To Lorraine White-Wilkinson for giving her movement so graciously to the process. To Tara Flynn for completing the circle of creation. To my cohort, Amanda Wardrop, Maria Dimas and Lorraine White-Wilkinson. Your love and support gave me the knowledge that I could push through the doubts to succeed. To all those dear, dear hearts, who have continued to believe and listen all of these years. You are my pillars. vi Table of Contents Approval ............................................................................................................................. ii Partial Copyright Licence .................................................................................................. iii Abstract ............................................................................................................................. iv Dedication .......................................................................................................................... v Acknowledgements ........................................................................................................... vi Table of Contents ............................................................................................................. vii List of Poetry ................................................................................................................... viii List of Images ..................................................................................................................... x 1.

  • The San Francisco Bay Guardian
    Best of the Bay 2004 - The San Francisco Bay Guardian http://www.bestofthebay.com/2004/nightlife.html Signs and spaces By Lynn Rapoport One rainy Sunday night last November in the Mission, two small U-Haul trucks appeared outside the old Armory building on the 14th Street side, rear doors hiked all the way open, a slippery ramp extended between them. Shadowy figures in rain slickers clambered in and out of the trucks, guided by affable guards standing at the portals doling out flashlights. Every so often, someone would carefully pick his or her way from one to the other, hunched over to avoid the drizzle. Inside was just what you'd expect, assuming you'd gotten the e-mail: walls covered with works on paper, photographs, tiny installations — an art gallery encased in metal and ready to roll. Strangers paced the cramped perimeters, politely shrinking to let other visitors pass, trying to avoid tracking in the worst of the outdoors. Taller visitants angled their heads awkwardly in search of perspective. People spoke in murmurs about the provenance of the work, the price range, the materials, the trucks. And perhaps, if we'd all been characters in some multiplex thriller starring Pierce Brosnan or Catherine Zeta-Jones, the whole thing might have turned out to be the staging area for some shady transaction involving an international art-smuggling ring, or a badly operated, overly complex stakeout. In the real world, it was the weekend of "Crosswalks," a many-venued art show taking place in a small cluster of Mission galleries, as well as a book store, a shoe store, an all-vegan boutique, a multiuse performance space, a clothing boutique and gallery, a bike shop and clothing boutique and gallery, a clothing boutique and zine shop, a tattoo parlor, and yes, a couple of U-Haul trucks rented out by a roving art entity called BOB Archives 6 the Budget Gallery.

  • It Changes Lives. Therapy Connoisseur Helen Kirwan-Taylor Braves the Exercise Contorted
    Beauty stomach went into knots. One by one, members of the Helen Kirwan-Taylor, group stood up and confessed to addictions, physical June 2009 and psychological abuse, suicidal depression, infidelity, violent behaviour... Heck, one man had even been in prison. I promise that if someone had said, ‘I burned down a small village,’ I wouldn’t have been surprised. That was the last of anything even faintly familiar to me. By the afternoon we’d been stripped of our name badges (which were replaced with something really odd), and basically I’d been initiated. I say this affectionately. Like the movies, the Hoffman is about the suspension of disbelief. One exercise, involving plastic baseball bats, large cushions and primal screams, All the had me and a brilliant former experimental psychologist suffering from existentialist depression ready to pack up and leave. In the end we decided to ‘trust’ the process. Frankly, that wasn’t easy. The Hoffman is about feelings, not thoughts. Releasing anger and pain was the first few days’ mission. In order to generate a hyperstate of arousal, the Hoffman Process uses tricks r AGe (I speak in code because too much prior knowledge defeats the point – the element of surprise is huge). There’s a reason the Hoffman course has become so fashionable – I couldn’t access my anger easily and found the whole it changes lives. Therapy connoisseur Helen Kirwan-Taylor braves the exercise contorted. My teacher took me aside and remarked that I wasn’t trying hard enough. Furious process and bashes through the shadows of her childhood tragedy at her for telling me off, I went at my cushion like a petulant five-year-old.
