Carl Jung, The Shadow and the Key To Your Hidden Potential
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 1 มิ.ย. 2024
- The shadow is one of the most well-known pieces of Psychiatrist, Carl Jung's philosophical legacy. This dark, unconscious part of the psyche is both deeply fascinating and incredibly misunderstood, not to mention difficult to make tangible. How do you explore or work on something you aren’t conscious of?
That said, it can be done, and doing so is vitally important for knowing who you truly are, healing, and reaching your potential.
So in this transmission, we’re going to explore the shadow and the philosophy of Carl Jung from a number of angles in an effort to both help shed light on it and to begin to understand how we can actually work with it.

Reverse engineering projections is highly beneficial and so easy to do once you become more aware. I use this all the time. Key thing to remember is whatever causes an immediate, visceral, emotional reaction, whether positive or negative, is a projection. For example, a few years ago while driving I noticed I'd always get frustrated by a car in front of me taking too long to make a right turn, causing me to slow down excessively. I found myself beeping my horn and yelling, "Let's go already!" Taking a deep breath, I immediately knew this was projection. Was I seriously upset with someone taking too long to go in their desired direction? No, I was upset at my own inability to do the same. I needed to change course in my life. I knew where I wanted to go, I just had to get on with it and "make the turn already!" This projection related to frustration over wasting free time on things that didn't matter instead of writing more. These habits no longer served me yet I would not let them go. I said the truth to myself out loud in the car, and felt the tingle the body gives when reciting a truth that needs to be made conscious.
Thoughtful stuff. Thank you!
Incredibly helpful, thank you for this wonderful personal example. That’s the tricky thing with shadow work and reversing projections- we often don’t know what we don’t know! Dissolving shadows is as complex (and as easy) as taking a flash photograph of the night sky. 🌌
I read lets go already in benders voice by accident 😂
wow never knew the tingle was a truth made conscious, really puts it in a whole new perspective. Always thought i was acknowledging the soul in my body each time.
Thank you for sharing that. Right on time
First rule in shadowwork:
don't lie to yourself.
💯💯💯💯
It also be fair with yourself.. be kind is a bit too cliche,sometimes we need tough love, even from ourselves but be fair
At the core of the shadow is self loathing. That is where all of our negative emotions and behavior comes from. If you can figure out why you feel inferior, incompetent or unworthy, then you can begin to heal yourself. And your healing starts with you validating your own worth. You choose the standards that you evaluate yourself by. You decide when you've done your best. Learning to approve and appreciate yourself is truly the most important and liberating thing you can do.
Wow man. Thanks
What if self loathing is a major problem. I’m 50 but have suffered from this my entire life. Never good enough, fast enough, strong enough, pretty enough, smart enough, not thin (I’ll never and have never been thin. I want to be healthier. I have long Covid and have gained about 50 pounds from prednisone tapers and immobility. My body is a prison physically and mentally).
How do I heal my shadow self?
Wow. Thanks for that.
@@got_glintsp963good question. I’ll look at my own shadow and try to find a way to answer that.
@got_glintsp963 Hi,I would start by defining your own standards of good enough, pretty enough, smart enough, etc, because your opinion of yourself should matter more than anyone else's opinion. Then if you decide you want to make some improvements, seek out information on how to do it. No one program, method or course of study is going to fit everyone, so modify whatever you need to so that it fits you and your goals. Be consistent and keep trying until you see the results you want. The very fact that you are making a sincere effort to improve will help you feel better about yourself. Best wishes ❤️
Last year i was battling thoughts constantly, fighting thoughts with thoughts. So much overthinking actually made me lose a lot of my hair. Suddenly i woke up one day, had the realization that it don't matter. I slowly dived deeper into the spiritual and got introduced to the word shadow-work. It's so crazy, theres such a huge difference between the mind and your conscious self, when you adress things from the mind with your conscious words and find a solution, it all comes together. So with the awareness of shadow-work i suddenly got a thought that i wasn't good enough, and really said to myself "What would make me think such thoughts about myself" and as i relaxed and just focused on the question, memories from my childhood popped up, in where i was neglected. Looking at this, and realizing it was so long ago, and made me the person i am, today put it in a whole new light. Told myself it was okay and i am safe now, just completely lifted a heavy burden on my mind and body.
The shadow stems from unadressed trauma.
Well said! 🙌🏽🙏🏾
I had a moment like that, it was so bad I remember the time exactly. December to mid February. School is such an unstable environment for me, so at the time I decided to graduate early
@@celinasjourney I know you’re at a better place now, we are destined for greater things🙌🏽
Have ya been in the period of absurdism or nihilism
@@projectfear22 No never, have always been a person that would rather see the whole world win!
The ultimate end goal of doing shadow work as with any type of spiritual or psychological work is to attain peace of mind and a clean heart. These two things are invaluable tools that allow you to flow through life with a certain natural high. You also gain other spiritual/psychological tools but that is for those who push into it. And for the love of understanding words. Dark doesn't mean evil and light doesn't mean good. Dark/shadow simply means the unknown and light means the known.
Wonderful, darkness is just absence of light ✨️
@SoulShift777 I love your comment, beautiful simplicity 🥰
Facts 44
I love the dark❤️
The problem is people tend to avoid what is negative and to find the real light we need to embrace the shadow as heavy as it may be.
I feel like I’ve searched TH-cam for almost a year trying to find a good explanation for Shadow work and I finally found it here. Much love and thanks 🙏🏻
🙏🙏🙏
The teacher appears once the student is ready...
You came from the shadow into the light ✨️
I have started doing shadow work 3 1/2 years ago. I was broken from a heavy childhood and at the age of 44 i decided it was time to go to the darkest places in my mind and heart and do whatever it takes to bring them into the light. It was so hard but worth every single moment of the pain, tears and shocks after discovering the truth. Life is so much better now. Life becomes normal once you pass through your personal dark forest.
Also i wanna add to this the fact that if my mother would have done her shadow work, i wouldnt have had to do it now. If her mother would have done it, neither my mother nor I would have to do it. So i am taking responsibility for myself but also for my children and their children. The more i can uncover and heal, the less shadow work will they have to do. If everyone would do this, the coming generations would have a much better life
This is so spot on and exactly what I how I feel going through my own journey ❤ sending lots of love & light.
@@jasminegrey8691 Thank you Jasmine. Sending you love.
How interesting when I was just talking about generational cycle yesterday. Someone need to break it. Thanks for sharing.
Im 45 and im now diving deep into the abyss so i can actually end this lineage of women repressing their voices! ❤ i got no kids but i would do it for my kids and their kids if i had to. Blessings
Remember when you heal yourself, not only do you heal the shadow side of your future lineage , but you heal your ancestors also since you are connected even in different timelines since there is no time or space beyond this dimension. This is probably more than you asked for but it’s a spiritual side to this healing.
Your shadow is basically everything wrong you've ever done and your childhood trauma (unconscious beliefs based on how your parents treated you), if you've cheated people, taken advantage of people, wronged people or animals, committed any "sins" all of that lives in your subconscious so you have to make peace with yourself and the bad things you've done and also work in yourself so you don't do those bad things anymore. Be kind to even the people who are unkind to you because they represent your shadow. If you can do that your life will begin to change for the better. Namaste 🙏
You could also view your shadow as the imprint you've made on the world, both good and bad. If you pay for someones meal and later on someone pays for your meal you could view that as your positive shadow. The imprint you've put on the world with your behavior. You are the universe experiencing itself so when bad things happen to you think of it as the universe trying to trigger you to see how you will react. Transmuting the negative energy is alchemy. Always be the bigger person and make peace with your mistakes so you can continue to grow and evolve as a person ♥️
actually that is just a part of the shadow. The shadow is all that is out of the light of consciousness, also your repressed authenticity, creativity and essence
🐸🌻👍!
What if you find someone who will constantly feed you negatives
E.g. a person spending his life in cowardice can actually be courageous however he needs to dive deep into his psyche via meditation.
Shadow work, ego death, dark night of soul are all related and leads to one thing, cosmic wholeness.
That Jeffery Dahmer show really helped me. I was personally so terrified of becoming like him one day. Then when I saw that show I realized I could have been an amazing friend to him. Understood and talked to him. At that point I saw more media about parenting your inner child. I kind of realized I was doing that at one of the lowest points of my life. Now when I have kids, a wife, and a farm. I will know exactly how to talk to my children. Just by listening to them and thinking about their words. I will continue to explore the demon. He gives me great things to write about. I found a part of my source. I'm excited to communicate with him in a waking dream one night.
"Consciousness succumbs all too easily to unconscious influences, and these are often truer and wiser than our conscious thinking. Also, it frequently happens that unconscious motives overrule our conscious decisions, especially in matters of vital importance." - Carl Jung
To me, the dark or the shadow is anything that not in your conscious thinking. You could be a really negative person and have a positive shadow. The golden shadow. Even jung said that not all evil is totally bad for you. How else can one be assertive enough to have healthy boundaries.
Agreed
It's true a lot of the most outwardly negative personas were formed out of pushing the vulnerable kinder qualities into the shadow. People take advantage of or ridicule the kind and our brain is tracking who has the most power in each interaction, especially traumatic ones. We lose bits or pieces that are deemed as weak and then they stay immature compared to our more conscious attributes.
I think it's just your body trying to protect you from pain. Your body is designed to protect itself. But sometimes to get what you want you have to work hard or face set backs. This made me love my body more instead of just hating myself.
Thank you for this video! I’m a psychotherapist/hypnotherapist and you’ve done a great job summarizing the work I do with people. The unconscious mind is such a vast space for learning about ourselves and the world. Great video!
when i first tryd a technique of carl jung instantly someone tried kill me from inside when i asked with closed eyes if other side want contact a technique was named in a video about carl jung then god told me you should never connect with the other side because it means you stand to satan not god
Shadow work consists of us analyzing our rejected reflections of self. The rejected reflection is seen outwardly through others. When we have difficulty accepting who we are we project it. If we we've done painful things we may project it into others. So we speak beautifully to ourselves to understand it better an vs we strive to find beautiful truths in our memories. Shadow work leads to light work
Very beautifully explained. Thank you! ❤️💜💚
Something very cool to see is how positive and informative the comments are here.
You work with your shadow. There’s no need to overcome it. Once you realize your triggers, you acknowledge them from 3rd person view. Then when you learn how to accept the trauma, you then learn how to love/forgive.
Our shadow is our “weights” (so to speak) for developing spiritual strength.
I def agree that the shadow self should not b feared or kept hidden in shame for doing so gives it a more negative power over the whole self. Finding a middle ground, a compromise with the shadow self, to walk with it confidently without shame, guilt, fear, nor doubt will uncover arcane wisdom of the universe within the self, creating internal balance that will ultimately lead to creating external balance. 💐💛⚔️
When I've watched this video, Michael was happy that he surpassed 1k views.
I've came to see how the channel is doing, and the biggest smile that I've gave today emerged from my soul.
So happy to finally see this magnificent channel getting the love it deserves!
Shadows basically being behind someone for a long period of time without them knowing that you're there
Authoring has proven the most engaging arena for my Shadow to come out to play. My villains write themselves. Their words and actions come to mind all too easily, to the point that I almost have to tell them to shut up when I have had enough with a writing session. They have the freedom to say and do some of the most heinous things I would never do...except they are I just as much as I am.
Neglect. Me too. But it made me who I am.I made so many mistakes and missed out on so many opportunities because I felt I just wasn’t good enough, but I told myself I will give myself the best I can that I never had as a child and because I looked so good no one could tell how worthless I felt inside. That I think saved me along the way a little.But I also over gave and had no boundaries because I didn’t want to feel that neglect and lack I felt as a child. Now at 34 I began to heal and am not afraid anymore. Thanks for your comment ! all the best !☀️
This is crazy how such qualitative and insightful content gets so few views! Thanks a lot for the video
Thanks for diving in. I’ve got a couple other Jungian wonder dips you’ll probably enjoy as well.
Agree, 35k views no subs? Wtf?
I read a lot of the comments. I learnt just as much from the comments as from the video. Thanks to all who take the time to share and guide the rookies with your experience.
ALWAYS REMEMBER- THE OTHER SHADOWS
"The future of all of our tomorrows
will be reflected by how we react
to the mediocrity and apathy of others today"
I have been reading The Red Book & doing some weird inner work. I appreciate the way all of this is verbalized here. I’ve listened to a few people talk about “shadow” and had to dismiss their Jungian ideology because of yet again, personal interpretation. This held my full attention through the entire video - loved this!
Thanks my friend. Best of look with the high weirdness of the psyche. Yes I agree, people who talk about this topic without understanding it’s Jungian origin are mega cringe.
@@THIRDEYEDROPS hey thanks! The weirdness may be the driving force that keeps pushing me forward, it’s an amazing experience! I agree with you wholeheartedly, in the past I‘ve been mega cringe. Yikes!
I find myself separating from a few people because as far as I can tell, they maybe don’t have the grasp they thought.
You should be proud of yourself! Give yourself a pat on the back. Would you recommend the red book? Just saw it after googling carl jung but I'm a bit confused as to what it exactly covers.
@@shockedpikachuface7376 I would recommend the book to anyone who is working on themselves or recovering from life’s various versions of trauma. (Depending on their reading level, actually.)
The book itself is a collection of Jung’s personal writings that descriptively annotate this conversation he has with himself through his subconscious. It’s profound! It would be wise to read the book in portions and let each journey he shares resonate before moving on to the next.
It’s one of my favorite books I’ve purchased & it’s something I will reread several times.
The shadow is everything in you that you have been conditioned to ignore and subdue- things that other people don’t value.
Remember: The reason for the split of a personality into Self-image and Shadow is... _fear._ We start out life as helpless dependents; so we're terrified of abandonment - which would equal death/oblivion. As we grew we were repeatedly taught that we must subjugate many natural aspects of ourselves, or else we would risk rejection from our parents, and later from society as a whole. The specter of abandonment is terrifying; and as adults that fear still keeps us rejecting large swathes of our natural selves. So if we want to reintegrate our rejected self, we first have to re-encounter - and _reprocess_ - the fear. Gulp. ~8^{
I left all my material belongings behind left my apartment and went living out of a book bag at a homeless shelter. I started to experience the presence of archetypes in my thinking and I started to experience sychibicity some as well. I started to see patterns in numbers particularly at this time I didn't use plant medicine but wad using amphetamines. I started doing deep shadow work in my artwork keeping mist of the room in my bag for my sketchbooks . I spent the next six months drawing only with black ink while I deeply introsoected often mumbling to myself. Shadow work took me to the edge. I had flashbacks of past experience with near death I thought about philosophy and time and space the afterlife and death and my fears plated a huge roll. I thought about language and linguistics all while sketching. All I did was draw and think I often had restless sleep and felt I was in touch with spirits because I had seen the void been there and back before. The shadow work I did during this time has reshaped my psyche some will say it I was experiencing psychosis from the amphetamines but they helped my journey through the dark sun conscious minimalism I found to be very important for me as well. CHEERS
Wow intense! Hope you’re doing well.
Cheers
One of the best explanations of the “own shadow”. When you mentioned reverse engineering our own thoughts, the name of Rudolf Steiner popped in my mind as Steiner’s technique of reverse engineering our day meticulously every night before sleeping.
Oh yeah! I’m familiar with that one!
Steiner is very interesting person! I went to Waldorf school my whole life and Mom is a teacher. Those schools are basically alchemical schools and pump out sooo many artists, musicians, and drug addicts lol. I loved it! I only in hindsight realize how lucky I was and wish I paid more attention!
@@zachadelic8110 the funny thing is you didn't have to "pay attention". The work is done on such a subtle level through hearing the archetypal myths and legends that connect you at every stage of childhood
I'm surprised to know I've been doing shadow work for most of my life and yes this is ongoing in my journey. I've just realized that the months of May and November are the best time for my shadow work after I went back through dream journals over the years. Thank you for sharing this.
When I began looking in 15 or so years ago, I could only have wished to have videos such as this. So well put, succinct, and with relevant examples to simultaneously extrapolate and condense these very, very deep topics. To see conversations about these topics and to see videos such as this come up more and more nowadays is quite refreshing. Keep it up!
Thank you!
@@THIRDEYEDROPS I'd love to be able to vlog/content create like this - I could go on forever. These concepts were swirling around my head and reconciled (and are still in process) for years before I was able to consume such great content like yours. Keep it up!!
22:22 My shadow work consists mostly of freeing trapped emotions. I just realized I have trapped emotions for an ex from 16 years ago! 🤯 Ive been with my current GF for over 15 years, I never realized I hadn't fully grieved losing the ex. The breakup was do to knocking up the current GF. I was so disappointed cause I loved the ex more back then but my current gf is amazing. I'll never go back!
It's so hard to sit in the old energy of liking and losing my ex. 😢
Forgot to say that I also believe the shadow is key because my darkest times in life all ended up being my greatest starts. Darkness + ending = new beginning. We need a fresh start to begin a new trail.
Book 33
Shadow Projection - may it be healed in this Nation! May America be the first, to turn, and heal all rightly! It can be done! In true love! ♥️
Best introduction to Jungs shadow work I've ever viewed. Thank you.
🙏🙏🙏
Once the fears are overcome the potential arises. Our hearts need to be in our efforts.
Thank you for unpacking the shadow and the work we all need to do. Carl Jung taught us so much!
very easy to work with your shadow: if you feel uncomfortable, instead of distracting just stay a little longer with this feeling. Just aware how and where it is in your body, what thoughts come up, what emotions.
Thanks for your content. One must learn to sit with themselves… with our shadow.. make your shadow your ally. If you don’t give the shadow what it needs, it will indiscriminately take what it wants.
Shadow work is paramount to light work. Shadow is not the absence of light it is an opposing force. It's necessary and it is in balance like all things. (Cannot be conquered)
“Seeing through the matrix, the real matrix, the matrix of the limitations of your mind”
Shadow work has been the most painful dark psychotic work I’ve ever done. For me personally it’s been the most fucked up thing I’ve ever done in my life. I am in the midst of this fair warning I’ll update once things go up but warning. For me I have a lot in my ancestry, past, family and culture that adds to this. It’s different for everyone but when you said psychic sickness? Bro. I feel like I’m in a mental hospital sometimes. It’s really fucked up and I have a psychologist and a meditation teacher. Again, different for everyone but it’s definitely not some nice love and light thing. It’s complex and painful and brings up things you never knew ran so deep. I’ll update when my life does a 360 and I rise from the ashes 😂
Oh and random thought. If you smoke marijuana. Stop. It’s subtly an anti depressant and puts you in a haze that makes the shadow much larger and you don’t even realize it from How subtle it is.
Sounds like you’re really doing the work. Godspeed to you ✨🙏✨
I ended up in the psych unit twice. Take care of yourself ❤
Do u believe raising a child u can do this work? Is separating from your child for a time beneficial long term?
You don't plan things. It just happens
Yes love yourself completely. As well as those around you at any time.
I took a year off work to find my shadows to come to find I'm now stuck in some realm of projections reacting to everything in my experience 😅. I'm not able to stop judging myself for being able to step out of my shadows and just live from fear and deep shame. Stuck in all my past traumas, dissociated and unable to feel forward. I appreciate having 'woken' up but now I'm stuck in my head instead of reality. I'm still unemployed as no career seems to have any meaning.. it's just do, be, have robotically tasking. Perhaps I'm not consciously aware enough to get out of my dissociated trauma states. But I feel trapped and numb. I used to live from my ego and was rich. Now it seems I'm destined to becoming homeless, because it all seems pointless 😅. Each human I encounter shows me a piece of me I can't stand. So I just want to isolate because I can't control them and I can't stop my own patterns. I go 'offline' and repeat them... only to become aware to it again and again. Its like a delusional Groundhog day. 😂 Thank you so very much for this incredible account ❤️ Really enjoyed the entire video. The connections were clear and valuable 🎉
Sounds like are on the path. You’ll eventually have break through! 🙏
I'm only 10:45 minutes in and I had a memory come to me... there are sometimes when I allow myself to feel the depths of suffering with the planet/people, or a specific person... I well up with emotion and switch it to a loving embrace and imagine an explosion within me that sends out an emotional wave of love around the 'Earth/person.' I would love for more people to practice this. 🙏💖💫
Sounds a little bit like metta/loving kindness meditation. Definitely one of my favorite practices. 🙏
@@THIRDEYEDROPS do you have a soap box or q & a ? lol
That is lovely, good on you, Amanda!
I recognise the 'explosion' part, but it happens differently for me, as I expect it is highly invidiual.
And I too 'file' it under metta/ loving kindness, and wish more folks were into it. But it's good to be reminded there are people doing it😊
This happened to me, and I befriended the dark so I can appreciate the light. I am writing songs now, doing art and I am living in harmony. But there is so much thing to do.
The Shadow knows!
Wow! That hit me
You are gifted in teaching. I have heard many talk of shadow work and how they healed from it, went through the dark night of the soul etc but none ever explained the process. Many thanks to you I did as asked, liked, subbed and commented!
Glad it resonated and thank you!
Jung is why I went back to school. ~ THIS video, although the shadow anima/animus isn't new to me, I will continue repeadetly listening to this until it is completely assimilated. I simply can't thank you enough.
I love this! What you said really resignates with me. I had so many life goals, worked in many different fields, have a large knowledge of health- (physical, bio chemical, automical) felt drawn to so many aspects of helping others, I've felt the urge to stray from my path so many times. Feeling drawn to art but never feeling or seeing my path form before me. When I look at the path I'm drawn to the most.. I see home. I see a place waiting for me. I see my old self and
all my dreams I left off waiting for me at the door welcoming inside because I prayed for this and it's success long before I chose it as mine. I can't wait to find my way home. 😌💖
You and me both. Good luck! You will find it.
Lovely said... bon voyage
Resonates not resignates
I've heard thru the years that when we break a bone. That when it heals , it actually becomes stronger than the bone itself. Think this Analogy applies here. Take care 😊😊
I am a designer and painter, the shadows are very important,
This was such an informative video. I wish I found it years ago, but I don't think I would have even realized how important and powerful it is. Thank you for making this video. I plan on sharing with those that I believe will benefit from it.😊
I've never ever believed that I am limited... maybe certain people feel limited because they do some things in a way that doesn't work for them... you just have to find ways that work for you.
It’s easy to follow the herd, do what you’re told.
No challenge, no growth.
'The laws of human nature' by Robert Greene is a good book for help with this :)
Thank you for producing this content, and speaking from your heart with wisdom, Michael. You are generating light making light.
🙏🙏🙏
Thank you
Carl Jung got his concept of the shadow and other concepts from his exploration of Asian spirituality, namely, Indian, Tibetan and Taoism.
Yeah so ? Not relevant to the video unless you want to make it sound as though indian philosophy or hinduism is above all.
Pretty relevant if one is interested in both, and/or studies global psychologies & systems in view of overlaying them, to see in what way ideas, concepts and words are synonymous, and to extend understanding of what one thinks one knows.
This is probably the best video I've ever seen about this subject. Really great!
Big thanks my friend. Glad you enjoyed it.
@@THIRDEYEDROPS You're welcome! I subscribed to your channel and will be watching more in the future. ☮
Shadow work... I walk with my shadow... and I see where it comes out. Sometimes, however, the shadow can help in situations that are not ideal. Merging with the shadow can help many people in survival. I have much work to do but this step has helped me... as well as others... so much more to go. Still trying to create in any way I can with what I have available to work with.
So grateful to have crossed paths with you and your podcast. Everyone I've listened to thus far has been right where I'm at one way or another. Very awesome! 💖💫
🙏🫶🙏
Here's a good example.
There's a saying that you can't run from your shadow.
It's everything you're trying to escape.
It’s deep
And mystical
I have had multiple NEDs
By integrating the shadow you can change this reality
If you understand Eckhart Tolle’ book The Power of Now it’s easier to understand Jung’ work and vice versa.
Read the book " The Pathwork " by Eva Pierakkos. It did more for me than Jung ever did. You got to be ready to dig into yours worst cancers and dance with your darkest demons.
You did a beautiful job of explaining the shadow and that even the name is in some sense a 'misnomer' cuz it's not necessarily all negative, it's also not necessarily about achieving conventional success, which is a mistake that I think a lot of other 'manefestation' youtubers make. I liked your channel before, but it'll keep a special place in my mind/heart now. Thanks 🙏
Our minds are the dictionaries we speak = 376 = 6, English, In Chaldean = 121 = 4. (The dictated English language - mind control)
Day to day hour to hour Week to week = 377 = 8, English, In Chaldean = 121 = 4.
Astrology maps it out (Jung referred to the birth chart as a map of the psyche). You just look below the horizon at what's there and that gives you a place to start.
Speaking of dreams, my favorites have been those of being chased through a building. Rather than being scary to the point of outright terror, they were just as thrilling as playing a game of hide-and-seek or maneuvering through a haunted house. My Shadow and I will live happily ever after. ☠
Lmao 😂
Ive been on this journey for near 3 years it all started when i lost my job i had for 18 years but i knew i had a rough couple of years coming i dnt no how but i just knew its defly been a journey i wont forget
Treasures are always hidden so our own treasures are hidden within our shadow.
I’m very thankful that I found you on here. Thanks for all your videos.
Welcome! 🙏
Mindfulness meditation is great for shadow work… if I have repeating behaviour around me that I don’t like… I go within… often to the origin event… in childhood. Once I see the origin… the external evidence clears from my life.
Do yourself a favor, don’t journal. Get out of your own head. Be honest with yourself, allow your thoughts to be authentic. There is no glamour or ego in this mindset
Ty, I'm trying to do better and figure out how my gifts can help others
"FREE WILL" mostly blurred by unconscious determinants suppressed and repressed by one's own negative experiences. "CHOICE" when truely informed is the WAY !!!
I released my memoir last month and this definitely all resonates. Thank goodness for self awareness and willingness to do the work. Or I’d be still in a very dark place of untapped potential, or possibly death.
I am on a Third Eye Drops loop today and my advice is: longer videos - tune into your higher aspect and let it flow! ❤Great work! Thanks for sharing such great content!
Thanks for watching :)
Thank you for sharing your wisdom.
I have never been on the well worn path so I'm not afraid PLS let me be aware, let me feel it, let me understand, let me heal it💕
CONGRATULATIONS MY FRIEND thus video this work your work, like this one, is one of the best videos off all time, about this subject!!! RESPECT. Just my opinion. 💚🍃🌱⚡THANK YOU 🙏
Really appreciate that. Thank you!
OMG I went through this without knowing wtf was going on. Talk about feeling like I was going crazy! Now I’m helping others who awaken in a similar manner. Each path is unique and different but we find God the Creator/All that Is within our similarities! ❤🎉
Thank you for this video.
This is excellent content as usual. Unfortunately Jung never made the full jump himself. He did not know that once the shadow is fully mapped, the ego is rendered redundant and the perfection of the self is followed by the destruction of the self. He felt this reality deeply, but only had psychoanalysis in his arsenal, no energetics or bodywork.
Beautiful🎉
And what follows the destruction of the self?
@@lordofd7111 my current opinion is it will rebuild/be reborn. Only to go full circle, until it is again - reborn.
This is a great video, dude! You have killer struture. Great takes 💪
Hey, appreciate you homie. Love your stuff, too.
I dig your channel dude.
Thank you for the words of wisdom, first of all I enjoyed admiring your beauty
Shadow is simply just what we're unaware of.. i.e. there's no light. Taking all judgement out is the only way to look at ego bc the ego is the only one capable of judgment. I do really love the quote from James Hillman.
Terrific! Just what I've been looking for!
Thanks to the algorithm I found this video... And I'm gonna try out some shadow work now just for the Jung of it! But in all seriousness this is very excellent presentation of this very abstract idea. (Trying to attain self actualization before I die). But honestly I have had to endure enough trauma that I have been forced to come to recon with the past. So thank you for introducing this concept to me as I do not recall learning about it during my BA in psychology..
What a great video! Greatly appreciated, thank you. 😊
I am very glad to have found this channel. Thank you for doing this and I hope you can continue to grow and reach many more people.
This was for me! Thank you from San Diego
Very good explanation of shadow work! Psychedelics, namely mushrooms have been so helpful for my own shadow work. Thanks

Third eye drops 🥰 Love that name
Very good content + I like the way you present it
Thank you for this thoughtful breakdown of shadowwork and hor to practice the philosophy
This is the best video on the shadow I’ve come across. Your way of explaining it and the pace made it easy to grasp. Personally I think mourning for self is the way to access one’s shadow.
Excellent video. Thank you for sharing. 👌
