Marian writes:
“Currently I am privileged to be working online with a small group of Ukrainian analysts and training analysts. Our meetings bring me into contact with the most basic value of our shared humanity – our ability to listen and to be present to the other’s experience.
This I feel has been a learning curve for me . The simple act of showing up and receiving the other’s experience transforms suffering – brings strength and hope in a time when the centre
seems not to be holding. We all benefit from meeting each other on the edge of hope and resilience.“

Olena writes:
“I appreciate what Natan Schwartz Salant said:
“With the realisation of hatred, we often begin the process of “awakening”.”
Olena Brante was born and grew up in Ukraine, but for the last six years she has lived in Ireland. Elena trained as a Jungian analyst with the Ukrainian Development Group and her main areas of interest are: trauma (in all its varieties), narcissism phenomena and immigration processes.
She very much appreciates art techniques and is interested in the impact of cold swimming on
the psyche.
Remembering Nathan Schwartz Salant, Olena believes that every Self provides its own experiment during the life, seeing the life of the soul as very difficult but also miraculous.
