In this conversation, we chat to Rob Furlong about 'Facing our Shadow'. Google - The 'shadow' is the side of your personality that contains all the parts of yourself that you don't want to admit to having. It is at first an unconscious side. It is only through effort to become self-aware that we recognise our shadow. Rather than confront something that we don’t like, our mind pretends it does not exist. Aggressive impulses, Taboo mental images, shameful experiences, immoral urges, fears, irrational wishes, unacceptable sexual desires—these are a few examples of shadow aspects, things people contain but do not admit to themselves that they contain.
