Publisher's summary

Shadow work is the key to unleashing the best version of yourself.

The Shadow incorporates all our disowned, unhealed parts that are hidden deep within the unconscious. These parts of your being that form your Shadow stem from emotional pain and trauma, forming a tangled web of repressed emotional wounds. If not dealt with, the Shadow can cause us to enact its contents in our daily life, often with very harmful consequences. Shadow Work is a tool you can use to uncover these parts and live a healthier, happier life as your true self.

An encounter with your Shadow Self is essential in order to move forward, grow, and stop repeating the same unhelpful patterns. Within these chapters, you will find a guide to lead you safely and peacefully on this journey, as well as discover a shame-free place to explore your inner space. You will learn how to tackle the obstacles to embracing your Shadow and how to sit comfortably and confidently within your own self. You will also be offered an array of tools and prompts to help you prepare yourself to begin this process.

This guide will offer you invaluable methods of unearthing repressed emotions and memories in order to begin healing from suppressed trauma and generational wounds. Dive into the mystery that is your being, uncover the wonder of your soul, and dare to tap into the infinite power of your subconscious mind.

This complete guide will offer you all the tools you need to do the work, including:

  • The foundational principles of Shadow Work and how to spot your Shadow
  • Releasing emotional wounds and trauma and tools to give up self-judgment and rebuilding your emotional body
  • Inner Child healing
  • Awakening to your infinite potential through the unconscious
  • Meditation and mindfulness practices, as well as Shadow Work journaling

Wisdom awaits, along with a myriad of life changing possibilities.

Are you ready to face your Shadow?

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Insightful!

I have heard about shadow work and was always interested, but I had no idea how to start. I found this book to be the perfect guide. I enjoyed learning about the principles of shadow work. This allowed me to have a deep understanding of how it really works.
The section I loved the most was the meditation and mindfulness practices. This was an emotional journey that I recommend to everyone. This book was well thought out and well narrated.

ENLIGHTENING

This Author takes us on a fascinating & enlightening journey of introspection to a place where we don’t really ever go.
This book delves into the shadow parts of our psyche, shedding a needed light on the various personalities & traumas that live below our consciousness. It’s about doing incisive research & awareness of Self. As it is only from that point that personal development & healing can happen.
Great read.

Great addition!!!

Though this book, you will find a useful tips and a personal guide to your journey to inner peace, you’ll learn to embrace and own your darkness, to healing and embracing your wholeness. .A truly wonderful book, and with impeccable timing. The book is well written, and very informative, the passion and knowledge found through the text added depth and enjoyment. The author explained the terms, what they are about, and how to put it into practice. A well needed addition. Will recommend!!!

Extremely Helpful!

I had heard about shadow work and how helpful it could be, but never had a clear understanding of how to do the work until now.
The book helps you understand so much about the things that trigger you or the things you don't necessarily like about yourself and how to process these things in ways that are life-changing.
You will have plenty of guidance to help you along the way from journal prompts to questions to ask yourself when certain emotions come up during your day-to-day activities.
It's a guide that has practical applications you can use every day to help you embrace and love who you really are, and I strongly urge anyone who wants to learn to love every part of themselves to get the book!

Excellent book

I just started my shadow work journey and I appreciate how clear and concise this is. Especially the descriptions of our shadows. I’m a therapist and have read the 12 shadow descriptions to my clients many times and found it very helpful. Thank you for writing this book. I look forward to experiencing this journey.

Insightful Book on Spiritual Growth

I have done a little dabbling in shadow work here and there, but never to this extent to what the book covered. I really appreciate how the author made the book beginner friendly for those who have never done shadow work before and really goes into how childhood can affect our psychologiacal development as adults. Best of all the healing! There are so many helpful tools in this book to aid in self healing, creating a private practice, and journaling mindfuly. Amazing book!

Educational

This audiobook offers a thorough exploration of the inside effort required to gain freedom and clarity. It outlines how to change, heal, and develop new beliefs and attitudes using Shadow Work in a step-by-step manner, opening the door to one's suppressed genuine self. I had never heard of the term "shadow walk," but this audiobook has expanded my knowledge.

Intriguing

This was a new topic to me, and Im glad I as introduced to it. Women all over can use this guide to intuitively awaken their spirituality and empower themselves through the use of positive forces deep inside. There are ways that we can awaken our inner strength and be who we want to be, however, we are ignorant of many of these things. The author has delved into this world that will make us blossom into the beautiful and strong creatures that we are. This book will make a great gift too. Good job!

Great guide for beginners

I really enjoyed listening to this book and learned a lot. I think it’s an excellent guide for spiritual growth and healing. It helps to understand our “shadow self” and spiritual growth. I believe it’s essential to look further than our daily life; we sometimes have to look for other alternatives, and this book breaks down the different ways we can do so. I think it would be an excellent book for a beginner like myself and for people who already practice shadow work.
