Description

Some of these traits may trigger or embarrass us, so we hide them from public view. These parts make up your shadow self, and it longs to be heard. However, it’s not always easy to come to terms with our shadow selves. Many people tend to repress those hidden parts of themselves to avoid having to confront that darker side. Even though the shadow still exists, it gets pushed back and forgotten. But repressing your inner shadow can have consequences. Most often, the shadow manifests as our triggers — emotional reactions that we haven’t fully dealt with. But bubble up to the surface under the certain circumstances. It takes time, self-awareness, guidance, and courage to help you face your shadow self in a healthy way. Symptoms of a repressed shadow: Self-loathing or lack of self-esteem Self-deceit or deceiving others Anxiety or depression Offensive behavior Struggling to have good relationships with self and others Self-sabotage Self-absorption Inflated ego Join Aleigha Gudat on an introspective guided meditation to help you connect and understand your shadow self. You will be given a resource of other types of shadow work to utilize on your own time and a writing prompt for after the process. Shadow work is designed to help you integrate and accept every single part of yourself so that you can live and thrive with more clarity and authenticity.
