A few weeks ago, several of you lovely folk asked me to write a post about shadow work. I have spoken a little about the process on here (including in my post on the opposite practice of Bright Work), as well as on my podcast The Divine Void, but I wanted to honour my promise of delving into our deep unconscious.
Now that we are firmly in the darker half of the year (Samhain is the beginning of Celtic winter), I wanted to share some of my own shadow work process and give you ways and tips to safely practice dealing with your own shadow self.
This post shares an insight into my personal shadow work, as well as some of the darker aspects of my psyche, while I’ve been going through grief. If this isn’t for you, skip the next section and head straight to “What is shadow work?”
I hope you find this post useful as a guide through the mind (with the bumper rails up).
My own journey through the shadows
