Begin your shadow work journey with me
From feeling stuck and helpless to feeling empowered and alive
Being able to respond to any situation and each moment in life from a place of choice, is the most empowering experience. It results in a feeling energised, alive, capable and mature.
Taking responsibility for your actions and all your experiences is not always easy and comfortable, but it is profoundly rewarding. If you are moving, you are not suffering. Only when you feel stuck, there is suffering.
Feeling whole (again) is a moving from feeling stuck to feeling in flow with existence. A moving from complexity to simplicity. A moving from fear to trust. A moving from depression to joy.
The phases of shadow work
The idea of bringing the unconscious into the conscious.
Awareness
The first step is to shine light on the repeating patterns and habits that keep you stuck. We look at the narrative of your past and reveal and apprehend your mechanisms and dynamics and how these are showing up for you. You become aware that you are triggered / that you are projecting.
Acceptance
The second step is to allow all deeper feelings and sensations related to the triggers and repeating patterns to be there without trying to hide it, fade it or fix it. You accept your experience as it is.
Integration
In the third step you begin to investigate, to inquire into your shadow and begin to integrate the shadow aspect into your behaviour.
Realisation
The last step is to live what was in your shadow so that consciously you can change your behaviour.
“One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious. Shadow work is the path of the heart warrior”
— Carl Jung
Shadow work is something for you if you are:
feeling stuck in repetitive patterns in relationships, in conflicts, in your work
tired of suffering from selling yourself short, not showing up for yourself, of postponing what you want experience in your life
feeling a sense of lethargy and fatigue
longing to come out of hiding, to free yourself from repetitive and unsupportive thought patterns or beliefs
feeling torn between the many wants and needs from the inside and the outside
willing to trade in your suffering for passionate YES to life
yearning for greater authenticity, creativity, energy, and personal development
The benefits of shadow work
Improved Relationships
The more you learn to accept and make peace with yourself, the more centred and grounded you will feel. You will develop understanding and compassion with others as well as feeling less triggered you will respond less defensive and have more openness for yourself and the other . This will make communication easier and you will notice a positive effect in all your relations
Integration, maturity and resilience
Taking the focus from the triggers on the outside and facing what is moved on the inside, in our shadow requires and putting time and energy into becoming “whole” within oneself leads to great integrity and maturity which creates peace and resilience
Clarity
By integrating your shadow aspects you will find more clarity in yourself and develop a more realistic perception in which you are neither too big nor too small. This will allow you to perceive yourself, others and situations with more clarity, kindness and understanding
Enhanced energy, joy and creativity
Consciously or unconsciously suppressing emotions or protecting oneself is exhausting and requires enormous amounts of energy. The more acquainted you become with your shadow the more energy is liberated which is now available for you to be and live.
I am one with all things-
in beauty, in ugliness,
for whatsoever is-
there I am.
Not only in virtue
but in sin too I am a partner,
Not only in heaven
but hell too is mine.
Buddha, Jesus, Loa Tzu -
it is easy to be their heir,
but Genghis, Taimur and Hitler?
They are also within me!
No, not half- I am the whole of mankind!
Whatsoever is man's is mine -
flowers and thorns,
darkness as well as light,
and if nectar is mine, whose is poison?
nectar and poison - both are mine.
-Osho
