SUMMARY:Brush\, With Death
DESCRIPTION:Brush\, With Death\nPresented by Charles Zeltzer\, PhD\nSunday\
 , January 13\, 2019\, 4 - 6 pm\n(this program was not recorded)\nEach one 
 of us\, as we age\, encounters death in increasingly intimate ways. Almost
  five years ago I endured a heart attack — an acute and dangerous event 
 that was a powerful psychological and spiritual encounter with my mortalit
 y. Prior to the attack I had a number of dreams\, which in retrospect I re
 alized predicted exactly what occurred. Several dreams post- attack deepen
 ed my understanding of the meaning of the event. While recuperating I pain
 ted these images that arose from the depths. One day\, while I was sitting
  with paintbrush in hand\, the thought came that I would give a presentati
 on based on my experiences. And then the title popped into my mind: Brush\
 , With Death. In this presentation I will discuss this fateful and numinou
 s encounter\, how I worked with this experience of the living psyche\, and
  its implications for both my life and death. I hope to further open the d
 iscussion of these matters in all of our lives\, and to give a glimpse of 
 how one person\, who is engaged with the unconscious\, works with deep and
  fateful inner material.\nCourse Objectives:\n•  Describe the relationsh
 ip between current traumatic experience and past trauma.\n•  List exampl
 es of archetypal imagery that arise as precursors to physical illness.\n
 •  Analyze the creative material produced in relationship to the trauma 
 experienced.\n•  Demonstrate how the creative process develops the meani
 ng of the images that arise from dreams.\n•  List the core features of s
 hamanic initiatory experience.\n•  Explain the relationship between sham
 anistic experiences of ecstasy and experiences of life-threatening trauma.
