Ready to embrace your shadow and shift to the positive in your life? What this workbook According to the psychoanalyst Carl Gustav Jung, every person has an inner ‘shadow’. The Shadow is the dark side of consciousness that operates beneath the surface of our awareness. This Shadow has developed as a self-defense mechanism against unwanted thoughts and feelings, and it carries suppressed emotions such as hatred, anger, envy, greed, jealousy, or deceitfulness. This 'shadow' has developed as a self-defense mechanism, serving you at some point in the past. People, rather than accepting the so-called ‘negative’ aspects of their own personality, tend to point towards another person and show how that individual contains those ‘negative’ traits. This "shadow self" manifests in your life as self-sabotage, taking hold of your emotions, and causing irritability, anxiety, or depression. Shadow work is the process of identifying the features we repressed and reintegrating them into our conscious personality. Through Shadow work, we can free ourselves from the chains of the uncontrolled and irrational power of our shadow self. By looking into how we have created this dark zone inside us, we'll be able to uncover hidden fears and heal past traumas. Rather than striving for perfection, we should aim to become a whole person, with all that it implies. Being whole involves both light and darkness, positive and negative, and this calls for integrating our shadow aspects into our conscious life. By bringing the unconscious and conscious sides together, we can reach our full potential.
