Shadow Work Journal Prompts For Healing, Self-Awareness & Growth (Shadow Work & Inner Child)
Description:... Shadow Work in A Nutshell Shadow work is a concept that was introduced in the work of Swiss psychotherapist Carl Gustav Jung.
The notion begins with the persona we present to others that is the "you" you display when you wish people to accept and love you. Any aspects that aren't in line with the ideal image of your self are suppressed. The repressed parts are the shadow.
We are able to effectively suppress the behaviors that aren't in line with our persona, but it doesn't mean that they're not present. These behaviors remain within the subconscious, and influence our thinking and behavior.
The more we deflect our shadow self (either in a conscious or unconscious way) and the more powerful it gets.
Shadow work involves discovering and acknowledging the qualities that we hide and reintegrating the psyche an appropriate manner. This removes the subconscious control they exercise over our actions and thoughts.
