SUMMARY:The Alchemy of Adolescence
DESCRIPTION:The Alchemy of Adolescence\nPresented by Beth Anne Boardman\, R
 N\, MA\, PhD\nlink to audio file\nSunday\, 4:00 PM - 6:00 PM\, September 2
 3rd\, 2018\nExploring images\, music\, science\, and the wisdom of depth p
 sychology\, this presentation discusses adolescence as a phase we all tran
 sit on our way to adulthood. Our adolescent bodies initiate the prima mate
 ria. Neurologically\, hormonally\, musculoskeletally\, one's body begins a
  transformation into physical maturity\, bidden or not. Wrapped in uncomfo
 rtable\, even painful bodies\, possessed by a mélange of hormones\, confu
 sed by rapidly morphing neurons\, we feel a need at some point to mourn th
 e loss of childhood or the dreams of innocence. With or without the permis
 sion of adults\, we feel compelled to delve into the sad\, dangerous\, and
  even horrible aspects of life. The nigredo rules adolescence. Through art
 \, music\, movies\, gaming\, as well as fashion\, body markings\, and adve
 nture\, we learn at adolescence to express our experience of grief\, disil
 lusionment\, and exhilaration. Adults can provide understanding and guidan
 ce through modeling\, mentoring moments\, and practicing the art (and terr
 or) of letting go.\nCourse objectives:\nIdentify at least three cultural\,
  hormonal\, or neurological factors affecting the behavior of adolescents 
 in the United States.\nBecome familiar with Jung's concept of nigredo\, th
 e "darkening" phase of an alchemical transition.\nRecognize the potential 
 patterns of alchemical transitions throughout the course of life.\nBeth An
 ne Boardman\, RN\, MA\, PhD\, lives in California and New Hampshire. She t
 ravels and lectures on the Mythology of Sport\; Women and Myth\; and the A
 lchemy of Adolescence (her dissertation topic)\, in addition to consulting
  as a writer to websites. Recently\, she has served on the board of the Pa
 cifica Graduate Institute Alumni Association and as Regional Coordinator f
 or local alumni. Her career spans work as a registered nurse\, grant-write
 r\, the study of world dance and music\, and the profound joy of raising t
 wo children. Her writings may be found atotherworldpoetry.blogspot.comandm
