It’s hard to heal what you won’t reveal
Shadow work is a type of inner healing practice that can help us uncover hidden aspects of our identity and gain an understanding of our deeper selves.
It also allows us to move beyond our limiting beliefs and judgments about ourselves, as well as uncover underlying issues we may be unaware of.
It’s a powerful way to get in touch with our deeper selves and release patterns that are no longer serving us.
What is shadow work?
Shadow work is an exploration of the parts of ourselves that we try to repress or hide from ourselves and others.
We must truly know ourselves first and the shadow part is the part we normally operate in. And confronting yourself is not the easiest thing to do.
To confront a person with his shadow is to show him his own light
Carl Jung
This includes painful emotions, traumas, and negative thought patterns that have been buried deep within us.
By exploring these parts, we can better understand why they exist, where they came from, and how they are affecting our lives.

Shadow work can be a difficult process because it requires us to confront parts of ourselves that we might not want to accept or acknowledge.
However, this process can be immensely rewarding as it allows us to understand why certain behaviors or attitudes have been holding us back and gives us an opportunity to heal those wounds so we can move forward with clarity.
