Not Alone: Finding the Inner Companion

DREAM WITH US, and we’ll teach you how to interpret them!⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠When you’re down, and in trouble, and you need some loving care...

You just call out my name, and you know wherever I am,

I’ll come running to see you again…you’ve got a friend.

Carole King song

The companion has a beloved place in our hearts. Famed modern-day teammates include Captain Kirk and Spock, Frodo and Samwise, Batman and Robin, and Sherlock Holmes and Watson. The companion serves and supports the hero, contributing quieter gifts of guidance, capability, and devotion. Every companion is an image of the inner Other, and is present whenever gifts of wisdom, care and guidance are received. Our bodies, instincts, and feelings recognize and respond to the companion: a night’s sleep and dreams ease anxiety, a quandary melts into resolution, a new idea shines in mind. The Companion is already and always there.
