This article will quantify the larger benefits of two techniques created by Tina Packer of Shakespeare & Company. The first technique, being the application of "massage" to text work. I will explore ...how this process, engages what Stanislavski referred to as the three impelling energy centres "mind", "will" and "feeling" and how in turn, this process towards "embodying the role", engages the actor in a process of chakra experiencing. The second technique is a process entitled "Dropping In," by comparing the four-step process practised in psychotherapy technique Eye Movement Desensitisation Reprocessing (EMDR), to the witnessed four-step process contained within the "Dropping In" technique, I will highlight the parallels between the two techniques and the therapeutic relief from trauma that participants may experience, when participating in this technique.

First-generation Jungian analyst, Jane Hollister Wheelwright (1905-2004) found the transition into young adulthood challenging. During her formative years, she lived in the coastal wilderness of the ...Hollister Ranch in Santa Barbara County, California. The Hollister Ranch allowed Wheelwright freedoms unusual for women of her time and shaped her psyche. When she reached marriageable age, Wheelwright was expected to conform to the societal norms for a young woman of her era, norms that were too constraining for Wheelwright and did not affirm her values and experiences. Wheelwright was caught between the primitive values of her early years and the civilized values of the world she was expected to enter. After her freshman year at Bryn Mawr College, Wheelwright searched for a life path that would allow her to be herself. At this difficult time, her uncle, muckraking American journalist, Lincoln Steffens, mentored Wheelwright. He affirmed her gifts and brought her into the sophisticated world of the American expatriate in Europe in the mid-1920s. Wheelwright believed that her uncle Steffens had rescued her, and she credited Steffens and C. G. Jung with freeing her to be herself.
