A lot of people are talking about how to do shadow work these days, but what is it? In this episode, you'll learn why it's deeply transformational, healing self-reflection that is absolutely valuable and necessary for anyone seeking to grow and transcend on this human journey through life.
Meanwhile, when you hear people talk about another buzz word, 'spiritual bypass,' they often do so in a way that kind of shames people who aren't endeavoring into this difficult work.
That's why I've put these two topics together in one episode. Because skipping over the hard stuff in life and not facing the ugliness that lives inside us in order to make peace with it and release it is spiritual bypass. It's easy to sit down and journal your list of intentions or what you appreciate. And it's fun to create a vision board. But positive thinking doesn't get you to the deep, dark, gnarly place of shadow, which is desperate for your attention and love. The irony is, that deep self-love and unconditional acceptance of both the good and the bad inside each of us is what we're all yearning for. And they, in my opinion, are our keys that open the doorway to abundance and happiness.
In this episode, I share some snippets of the shadow work I've done, how you can incorporate these practices into your life, ways you can begin to build a safe and loving relationship with the shadow inside you, and why it's so essential to stop trying to hide and shame her.
