Visit Salt Lake

Salt Lake is the place where the Wasatch mountain peaks frame city streets. Sure, Salt Lake's famed for our winter powder ([four legendary ski resorts](https://www.visitsaltlake.com/things-to-do/skiing-snowboarding/) just 30 minutes from downtown), but that's just one season's story. Summer brings families [hiking through wildflower meadows](https://www.visitsaltlake.com/things-to-do/outdoor-recreation/) before cooling off at a Jazz game or the Gateway fountains. Autumn paints our mountain canyons in gold, perfect for morning strolls that end at local coffee shops. Spring? That's when you might spot baby bison on Antelope Island before heading to the Eccles Theater for a Broadway show. Our soaring Wasatch Mountains rise dramatically from downtown Salt Lake, creating a place where every day offers both natural wonders and urban energy. And while we sit perfectly between the [national parks](https://www.visitsaltlake.com/things-to-do/outdoor-recreation/state-national-parks/) with Yellowstone's geysers and Utah's red rock country, the real magic happens right here, where everyone can [discover the history](https://www.visitsaltlake.com/plan-your-visit/about-salt-lake/) of the city as they find their own rhythm between mountain adventure and city life.

Sports Salt Lake

After an introduction where we'll be discussing some 'tools', we'll use them as clues to find what the planet needs from us.NOTE DIFFERENT WORKSHOP TIME AND LOCATION FOR THIS EVENT.\*\*\*\*\*"Forever, that is long before Brigham Young brought Mormons to the Salt Lake Valley in 1847, Great Salt Lake was one vast presence. Then progress and commerce and railroads and in 1902 a long trestle from old-growth redwood (because it could withstand the saltier-than-the-sea water) was built across it, saving trains time in getting across America, because time had in fact become money.For fifty years, water flowed freely both ways beneath this massive bridge, until it was replaced by the rock causeway that exists today. Flow through the causeway now occurs beneath a massive 180-foot-long bridge, controlled by an adjustable earthen berm.Forever, our human psyches were intact, undivided. This changed as we began abandoning the lifestyle that worked miraculously for over 200 thousand years for civilization. This massive shift, “the grand mistake” precipitated a division in our psyches, a causeway, if you will—our conscious, everyday modern reality on the south side, our unconscious, evolutionary material we share with every human who ever lived on the north.This side, our wild side, is made up mostly of what psychologist Carl Jung called the 'collective unconscious' which contains our entire evolutionary history, including everything we ever needed to save ourselves. Now, modern life no longer requires that we acknowledge our unconscious at all, since much of what is found there becomes less and less attractive (read 'bad for business'), as we become more and more convinced that we've made evolution obsolete. To our peril, I believe.We still have access to our unconscious, our own balancing, 'adjustable berm.' Many believe, like Freud, that this north, wild, unconscious psychic side threatens society, and sealing it off may be what's best. The North Arm, like our unconscious (both darker, murkier, and still wild) needs to live as though our survival depends on it, because it does." ~Brooke Williams5 continuing education credits available for mental health professionalsThis calendar listing is brought to you by NowPlayingUtah.com, Utah's one-stop, online website for arts and entertainment events, powered by the Utah Cultural Alliance.
