Description

The shadow is an inner fragmentation that occurs within you. It’s almost like two different people are operating your life. Have you ever met the most gentle, sweetest, and kind person, and in the blink of an eye something happens, and this person turns into someone else? They become mean and scary; they throw the biggest tantrum or freak out. How did this sweet person turn into a crazy psycho? That’s because they have two parts of themselves operating their life and the shadow part took over when they got triggered. We often underestimate the shadow, thinking it has no power over us. But that’s wrong. The shadow is very powerful! It can turn your life upside down and destroy your most cherished relationships. Shadow work is nothing but to make the unconscious conscious and the unacceptable — acceptable. That’s all you are trying to accomplish. The goal of shadow work is integration. The integration of the unconscious leads to complete and total awareness. To do shadow work is to bring your shadow closer to you. It is part of who you are, after all. The goal is to bring your shadow into the light or to shine a light onto the shadow. The more you shine a light on your shadow, the smaller it gets.
