We all have parts about our personality that we tend to suppress. People also refer to it as the 'Shadow-self'. It's the part where our negative beliefs about ourselves and others dwell.
When we do 'Shadow Work', we shine a light on these dark parts of our being. And while this can be a very difficult and painful practice, exposing and accepting them will lead to enormous personal growth.
Doing shadow work allows us to deal with and overcome past trauma. It can help you realise the source of your negative beliefs and your worst habits. Surface memories you had long forgotten or have been suppressing, and confront them.
Our emotions are not something that should rule us. We should aim to live a more balanced life. Only by accepting our emotions as they arise, are we able to let them go. We don't need to react to our anger or hurt the way we are used to.
Benefits Of Shadow Work:
-Self-love and Self-acceptance
-Overcoming generational trauma
-More awareness of your emotions and triggers
-Peace of mind, general Happiness
-Become more Compassionate towards yourself and others
-Improved Social Interactions & Relationships
-Become 'Un-Stuck'
Learning to sit with yourself in silence is essential in really getting to know yourself and your shadow. It is also the hardest thing to do for many people. But being able to just be with yourself, your thoughts and your feelings is powerful in getting in touch with your (wounded) shadow parts and sit with your emotions and inquiring deeper into your triggers.
Try this for yourself. Appointments available if you need help.
