Complimentary Teleseminar with Life Patterning Expert Dr. Michael Conforti and Olympic Coach Hank Lange

Elie Wiesel spoke of the hero as that truly unique person who cares more about the spiritual welfare of their community than for their own personal needs.

So how is it that despite the perennial wisdom on heroes taught to us by Wiesel, Joseph Campbell, Jung, and M. L.von Franz, that we persist in bestowing this mantle of importance on individuals unable to carry this archetypal pattern and mandate on their all too human shoulders?

Is the saga of Lance Armstrong yet another story of our need to both inflate and glorify values that in truth are far from heroic? When this happens, both the individual and the collective are left with disappointments, betrayals & loss of hope, leaving all involved in terribly compromised positions? In this two part series, we will look at the personal & archetypal factors driving Lance Armstrong's fall from grace, & the patterns which reveal the deeper story.

In Week 1, Dr Conforti will be joined by Hank Lange, a professional athlete who rode with Lance Armstrong and who now trains athletes from around the world, including many Olympians.

Week 2 will focus on the archetypal processes involved in Lance Armstrong's life, his request for forgiveness, our collective hunger for heroes and the symptoms and consequences when, as in all too many of our mythic tales, one aspires to be- like the Gods.
