Shadow-Work: Embracing the Dark Side of the SElf
C. G. Jung established the term “Shadow” to refer to the personal unconscious. It is within the shadow that we carry our rejected aspects of the self. These rejected aspects are inclusive of feelings, beliefs, aspirations, and behaviors that have been deemed unfavorable or unacceptable. Though cast aside, unconscious parts of the self still often surface in repeating patterns of destruction and sabotage. In this course, we will explore the individual shadow - its operation and limiting quality - to gain familiarity with how it erupts in relationships, how it narrows our possibilities, and often leaves us feeling disconnected and disillusioned. With shadow-work, we can learn to identify the eruptions of the shadow, work with instead of against emotions, release guilt and shame, recognize our projections onto others, and hold genuine self-acceptance.
