Details:	Jung believed that the psyche not only contained personal contents, but also collective or archetypal contents, of which 'spirit' is one of the primary archetypes. But what becomes of 'spirit' in a secular culture that has no room for spirit? Jung believed that we end up somatising spirit in destructive ways, because it is repressed into the unconscious, where it becomes negatively charged and impacts symptomatically on our mental health. The cure of the afflictions of Western society, he felt, was to consciously recover and acknowledge the spiritual dimension of our lives.
