Remembering the Way an Enquiry Into a Journey Of Remembering the Way An Enquiry into a Journey of Loss, Healing and Emergence Jenni Harris 2011 Remembering the Way An Enquiry into a Journey of Loss, Healing and Emergence Jennifer Rae Harris MA Experiential and Creative Arts Therapy (MIECAT) Dip. Transpersonal Art Therapy (Ikon) Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Professional Doctorate in Creative Arts Therapy November 2011 MIECAT, Melbourne, Australia To arrive where you are, to get from where you are not, You must go by a way wherein there is no ecstasy. In order to arrive at what you do not know You must go by a way which is the way of ignorance. In order to possess what you do not possess You must go by the way of dispossession. In order to arrive at what you are not You must go through the way in which you are not. And what you do not know is the only thing you know And what you own is what you do not own And where you are is where you are not. T. S. Eliot, Four Quartets (1952, p. 127) ii Abstract The opportunity to undertake a professional doctorate in process-oriented research coincided with my need for a period of deep reflection into my life and my experiences of death and loss. The resulting heuristic, arts-based research enquiry, based on a journal that I kept during this time, will provide the basis for my ongoing creative arts therapy practice. I offer this thesis as a resource to people practising in the areas of therapy, trauma, life review and qualitative research. I discovered that my enquiry, which took the form of a labyrinthine inner pilgrimage, had five intertwined aspects: therapeutic, archetypal, spiritual, professional, as well as its essential research function. It falls within the traditional archetypal framework of a heroine’s journey or a process of initiation: premonition, accepting the call, setting out, the descent into darkness, the return, and integration of a deeper knowing. My methodology has been emergent, arts-based and autoethnographic - an approach that is consistent with intuitive, organic enquiry methods. I have addressed the challenge of communicating a personal story and transpersonal ideas by using various forms: journal entries, visual art, poetry, dream work, evocation of memories, and review of lived experiences. In this way the thesis offers readers the opportunity to achieve both a felt-sense and an intellectual understanding of my exploration. In this enquiry I initially drew on a wide selection of sources from poetry and spiritual texts to popular psychology. In the later chapters, which deal with my return to the world, I engage with academic literature to consider methodologies, and the conceptual and practical implications of this research. My quest took me to many places: myth, mysticism, spirituality, uncertainty, vulnerability, courage, homage to the past, and the finding of meaning after complex loss and grief. Each played a role in the process of discovering a truer sense of self, gratitude, joy and blessing. As a longitudinal case study in itself, it sheds light on the process of transformation after trauma. Findings from my research include the potential for arts-based work to assist in the process of making meaning and new integration. I conclude with a discussion of factors involved in posttraumatic growth and the demands, dangers and potential of research and therapeutic journeys such as this. iii For Alan He was my North, my South, my East and West My working week and my Sunday rest My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song I thought that love would last forever, I was wrong W. H. Auden (1991, p.141) … for showing me that love does last forever. And for our children Rhan, Gretta and Lincoln And to Lainie, Francis and Madelene And Luca, Aliya, Marlo, Harry, Keala, Boomer and the babes to come. v Psyche’s Fifth Task Psyche was given four tasks, which she undertook to prove herself worthy. By ingenuity and determination, and with some help, she succeeded. Her fifth, and unspoken task, was to thank her helpers. This fifth task is one that I will never be able to perform adequately. There are always those for without whom this could have never been written: Jean Rumbold, David Byrne and Rachael Feather To each of you, I turn and bow, in gratitude and love. You have given me the gift of a life renewed. I honour and thank you. vi I have thought deeply about how to acknowledge the many worker ants, reeds and eagles that loyally came to my aid, just as they did for Psyche. Along the way, there have been many who have supported and loved me. You have forgiven my reclusiveness, given counsel and offered hands-on help. You offered yourself and your skills unstintingly, and inspired me by the values by which you live. Please accept my heartfelt gratitude for your contribution to this work.

Significant and essential understandings have trickled into the caverns of my being. These gleanings - too numerous to mention - nourished seeds that lay dormant inside me until the conditions were right for them to spring into life. To all who helped fertilise those seeds, (sometimes without knowing) I thank you. May the generosity you showed me return to you, manyfold. And thanks to the tea growers around the world who supported my habit. viii Declaration This is to certify that: • except where reference is made in the text, this work contains no material published elsewhere or extracted in whole or in part from a work submitted for the award of any other degree or diploma. • no other person’s work has been used without due acknowledgement in the text. • this work has not been submitted for the award of any other degree or diploma in any other tertiary institution. • ethics consent was granted by the MIECAT Ethics Committee on March 30, 2007.

    Episode 28: Phil Cousineau— The Art of Pilgrimage Thursday, May 14, 2020 [music] You are not moving, you are being moved. You are not singing, you are being sung. You are not praying, you are being prayed Prayed at the speed of love. Janet Conner You are not moving. Now, that's a pretty funny thing to say right now because it's true. None of us are moving [laughter]. But nevertheless, even when you're inside your own home, walking from room to room, the truth is you are not moving; you are being moved. This is a radical, 180 degree different understanding of being alive. You are not moving; you are being moved. You are not singing; you are being sung. You are not praying; you are being prayed, prayed at the speed of love. Welcome. I'm Janet Conner, Prayer Artist, and you have arrived at perfect timing—I like to call it speed of love timing—to episode #28 in Praying at the Speed of Love. This, my new podcast, is dedicated to very unusual, very intimate conversations about prayer, a topic that not a lot of media is interested in talking about. But I'm talking about real prayer, deep prayer, body prayer, mystical prayer, original prayer. And when I say original prayer… that's such an interesting word, "original," because it means simultaneously both, well, way back when, "originally," and at the same moment, anything an artist creates is original, right? And so in one word prayer has these two wings of being forever ancient… I'm madly in love with prayers that probably go back to Paleolithic times, the Labyrinth, the Rosary, which has nothing to do with any patriarchal Christian religion.

This widely distributed pattern was described by Campbell in The Hero with a Thousand Faces (1949).[1] An enthusiast of novelist James Joyce, Campbell borrowed the term monomyth from Joyce's Finnegans Wake.[2] Campbell held that numerous myths from disparate times and regions share fundamental structures and stages, which he summarized in The Hero with a Thousand Faces: A hero ventures forth from the world of common day into a region of supernatural wonder: fabulous forces are there encountered and a decisive victory is won: the hero comes back from this mysterious adventure with the power to bestow boons on his fellow man.[3] Campbell and other scholars, such as Erich Neumann, describe narratives of Gautama Buddha, Moses, and Christ in terms of the monomyth[citation needed] and Campbell argues that classic myths from many cultures follow this basic pattern.[citation needed] Summary In a monomyth, the hero begins in the ordinary world, and receives a call to enter an unknown world of strange powers and events. The hero who accepts the call to enter this strange world must face tasks and trials, either alone or with assistance.

  • Beyond Forgiveness, Reflections on Atonement with Phil Cousineau
    Beyond Forgiveness, Reflections on Atonement David Van Nuys interviews Phil Cousineau Shrink Rap Radio Episode #264 Phil Cousineau: When we attempt to say we're sorry and we seek forgiveness, well what happens is very often the world doesn't believe us, we don't believe ourselves, but there's this missing key. Atonement says you need to sacrifice something. You need to prove with an actual act, a human act, that you can put things right again. David Van Nuys: That was the voice of my guest Phil Cousineau speaking about the importance of atonement in the process of seeking forgiveness. Phil Cousineau is the editor of the 2011 book, Beyond Forgiveness: Reflections on Atonement. Phil is an award-winning writer and film maker, teacher and editor, lecturer and travel leader, story teller and TV host. His fascination with the art, literature, and history of culture has taken him from Michigan to Marrakesh, Iceland to the Amazon, and worldwide search for what the ancients call the soul of the world. With more than 25 books and 15 script writing credits to his name, the omnipresent influence of myth in modern life is a thread that runs through all of his work. His other books include Stoking the Creative Fires, Once and Future Myths, The Art of Pilgrimage, The Olympic Odyssey, The Hero's Journey, and Wordcatcher. Now here's the interview. David Van Nuys: Phil Cousineau, welcome to Shrink Rap Radio. Phil Cousineau: Good morning. I'm happy to be with you. David Van Nuys: I'm really happy to have you here and to have this opportunity to meet with you and to discuss your work.
