soul
Definition:
In Jungian psychology, the soul is a metaphor for the deeper, emotional, and spiritual aspects of the psyche. It represents the individual’s inner life, encompassing feelings, values, and the connection to the Self and collective unconscious. Jung often used the term interchangeably with anima to describe the feminine aspect of the soul in men.
Example:
Engaging with the soul in therapy helps clients explore their emotional depths and uncover their authentic selves. For example, reconnecting with soulful experiences, such as through art or nature, can restore a sense of meaning and wholeness.
