Your shadow holds the parts of you that have been neglected - the parts told they’re unworthy, unsightly, unaccceptable. Can you meet those parts and claim them? Bring them into the light with curiosity, understanding, and love. The anxious one, the controlling one, the jealous one, the self sabotaging one, the doubting one. They’re just parts of you, hiding and cold, waiting for your big and comforting hug. When you can see all of yourself, that’s when true “self-love” begins 🤍
There are so many ways to access these parts. I’ve worked with therapists, read many books, and met my shadow in meditation, breathwork, yoga, sister circles, retreats, somatic practices - and lately, even while doing something as simple as washing the dishes.
Always choose the modalities that feel safest and most supportive for you. Shadow work can be confronting, especially at the beginning. But I believe in you - and the relief, understanding, and love on the other side is worth it ###
