Introducing The Shadow
Manage episode 425968832 series 2371507
The Shadow is all those parts of ourselves we’ve shoved into the dark because we were told they’re unacceptable. This is what we call repression – unconsciously hiding these aspects to fit in and feel loved. And no shame. This helped us survive as kids. But as adults, we take it a step further with suppression – consciously choosing to hide these parts, leading to inauthenticity.
Resources we mentioned to start engaging in your own shadow work:
Book:
Falling Upward by Richard Rohr
