Shadow Work
Shadow Work requires courage and sitting with our uncomfortable feelings, making the uncomfortable comfortable.
Going deep beyond the surface to gain a better understanding of who we truly are.
It's all part of the healing journey to clarity, transformation and empowerment.
What feelings have you been suppressing?
What emotions have you been hiding from?
SHADOW WORK LOOKS LIKE:
Falling deeply in love with yourself
Embodying your essence
Moving in to self acceptance
Healing fear, trauma, shame, heartbreak and pain
Accepting that you are not broken
Recognising patterns of self-rejection and judgement
Transforming self-judgement into DEEP self-appreciation
No longer being afraid and ashamed of your past and shadow
“Shadow Work is the path of the Heart Warrior.”
Carl Jung
Trauma is the parts of us that haven’t felt safe, or seen, or supported, which have been marginalised and isolated. Healing allows these parts to be seen and heard, and is integral to how we show up in the world. How we are enabled to be authentic, visible, transparent and conscious.
We can suppress our trauma in order to fit in and to try and ignore it. Or, we can face it and look for the teachings, highlighting what shows up about our lives, and relationships, and getting to the root cause of our pain.
This for me is where the magic of Neuro Linguistic Programming comes in: creating a safe container to help us recognise, find and take back our own wholeness and sovereignty, to live our truth.
