Topic: Prelude to Training

Home, Homelessness, & Immigration


What might contribute to our subjectively feeling at home in the world? What leads to the loss of one’s psychic sense of home which in turn results in us feeling psychically unmoored in the world? These are some of the questions we will ponder together. Focus will be on the psychic loss of home even though the structural (literal) loss of home will be addressed by looking at the impact of immigration on the sense of belonging.
