Join us for a powerful talk by Jane Clapp on the alchemical intersection of the body and psyche!
We are excited to bring Jane Clapp, expert in Jungian Somatics, to Salt Lake City for this engaging look into our own psyches, through the lens of the body.
Opening Poet: Angelika Brewer, Ogden Poet Laureate
Live Music: Mindy Dillard, Musical Alchemist
Featured Artist: Emma Goldgar
Schedule:
6:30-7:00 pm Live Music & Mingle
7:00-8:30 pm Immersive Talk

1.5 CEUs available (Additional $5 )
Combining depth psychology principles with an understanding of the neurobiology of chronic and traumatic stress, we can develop a deeper relationship with ourselves with somatic awareness as a door into the unconscious psyche. Stepping into a more conscious relationship with our moment-to-moment bodily sensations and autonomous nervous system states allows us to work with parts of ourselves that evade our minds and make more conscious choices about how we relate to others and how we participate with the collective conscious and unconscious forces around us and in us.
About Jane Clapp:
Jane is a psychotherapist, an advanced candidate with the Ontario Association of Jungian Analysts, and an expert in the intersection of the body and psyche. For over twenty years, Jane has been a movement and somatic coach and embodiment educator working with a diverse clientele all over the world. Bringing together many years of somatic study and clinical experience, along with extensive personal Jungian analysis and professional training as an analyst, Jane developed Jungian Somatics™.
Don’t miss the companion Depth Workshop on Saturday, March 11th (4 CEUs, Early Bird Discount)!
Join us for a special workshop to experience the intersection of your own psyche through your body, in a small-group environment with Jane Clapp, the creator of Jungian Somatics.
Due to the space requirements for the experiential nature of this special workshop, spots are limited and this one-time experience will likely sell-out.
4 CEUs included for Utah Mental Health Professionals
Join Jane Clapp for a 4-hour learning experience to be introduced to the 6-pillars of Jungian Somatics: a foundational overview of this emergent and potent body of work that explores the inseparable relationship between somatics and Jungian psychology.
Be introduced to the anatomy of the psyche and how it is mirrored in the body. Experience practices that Jane has evolved from 20 years of working with movement therapy and somatics, and training in Jungian psychology.
The Six Pillars:
1. The process of embodied active imagination to explore unconscious material via the body through intuitive movement and symbolic image creation.
2. Principles of archetypal somatics and trauma as an embodied spiritual injury.
3. The neurobiology of spirituality and the embodiment of the Self.
4. The neurobiology of creativity and the unconscious psyche.
5. Somatics of transference and countertransference and the shared field via the unconscious psyche.
6. Introduction to the somatics of dream interpretation.
Don’t forget to join us for the Immersive Talk on Friday, March 10th!

Join the Utah Film Center on Wednesday, March 15 at 7 pm at the Rose Wagner Performing Arts Center for a screening of the newly premiered film, The Right to Read, featuring local Utah filmmaker Jenny Mackenzie.
Presented as part of the Utah Film Center’s Through the Lens Spring Series and in partnership with KUER’s Radiowest, The Right to Read highlights the challenges of improving literacy rates in the US among children, particularly, those from Black and Brown communities.
The Right to Read follows Oakland NAACP activist, Kareem Weaver, who believes literacy is our most important civil right. With a focus on Black and brown children, Kareem demands Oakland schools bring in science-based reading instruction. First-grade teacher Sabrina Causey becomes one of his most critical allies. Despite heated debates on reading instruction, parents and advocates work to increase literacy rates throughout the country. In Virginia Beach, Teresa trains parents in oral language skills to prepare their children for kindergarten. In rural Mississippi, where only 21% of children can read, Melinda looks at educational technology to help her child receive vital reading skills.
Join us afterward as KUER’s Radiowest host, Doug Fabrizio, hosts a lively discussion with film director, Jenny Mackenzie talking about the challenges of improving literacy rates in the US among children, particularly, those from Black and Brown communities.

Join the Utah Film Center on Wednesday, April 5 at 7 pm at The City Library in downtown Salt Lake for a free film screening of the award-winning documentary, All That Breathes.
Presented as part of the Utah Film Center’s Through the Lens Spring Series and in partnership with KUER’s Radiowest, All That Breathes documents the story of two brothers who fall in love with the black kite bird in one of the world’s most populated cities, New Dehli.
This mesmerizing story follows the “kite brothers” as they care for thousands of creatures sick from smog-choked skies in their makeshift bird hospital inside the tiny basement of their home. As environmental toxicity and civil unrest escalate, the relationship between this Muslim family and the neglected kite forms a poetic chronicle of the city’s collapsing ecology and rising social tensions.
We invite you to stay after the screening as KUER’s Radiowest host, Doug Fabrizio, hosts an engaging conversation with film director, Shaunak Sen about the restorative efforts despite dealing with some of the world’s poorest air quality.
