When doing spirit work, you must be prepared for difficult conversations. To be challenged. To hit hardship. This is part of this work. It doesn’t “go away” through bypassing. It will simply build until it erupts.

When looking at yourself and other spiritual spaces, ask yourself the following questions:

- Are difficult conversations held here?

- Am I allowing my shadow to be challenged and my medicine to be elevated?

- How are personal and collective shadows addressed in this space? Or are they simply ignored?

This work is meant to strengthen your spirit, not derail it. Remember your intentions and ground into your medicine. This will be your pillar ⚡️

This live is HEAVY on responsibility and accountability. The greatest question you can ask yourself and your practitioners is “what is your medicine?”

This must go deeper than certifications and titles. Ask them what are the spirits that work with them. What are the ancestors, plants, guides, etc. that work with them? This where we move from empty modalities to potent medicine.

🩸 If you’re ready to learn your medicine and hold it in responsibility + reverence, this is for you. Cardinal Shadow Work’s waitlist can be found in my b1o. Applications are being sent out now.

In this live we go deep into how mainstream spirituality has us half-hazardly using our spirits. Whether it’s through plant ceremonies or modalities, we need to create more awareness and protection for our spirits.

A big reason you’re drawn to the next certification or healing is because you are half assing the real work needed. The work required to cultivate that connection you Spirit you desire is within your shadow work. It’s addressing your pains, disconnection, and ancestral shadows.

This live we go deep into understanding the importance of learning your medicine and not another certification (breathwork, reiki, plant medicines, etc.)

We get emotional yall 🔥 Bring your pen and paper, this live got a lot of nuggets.

🩸 If you’re ready to learn your medicine and stop chasing empty certifications, this is for you. Sign up for my waitlist on Instagram @thecreatorcole

This live is for everyone. From spiritual practitioners to those of you just beginning, this is a message for you.

Mainstream spirituality has created a world where we think the next certification, plant medicine, or healing is going to fix us. The real solution to all of this is learning your medicine and your shadows.

Many of us are familiar with the shadows. We’ve spent our whole lives there. We begin to fear medicine and mistaken it as bad because all we know is shadow. We are blind to the medicine.

In this live we go DEEP into the importance of learning your medicine. Of what is medicine. And how to apply your medicine to your healing journey.

Let me know your thoughts in the comments after you watch. Lets talk. ⚡️🪶

There’s a big misconception around shadow work and what constitutes a shadow. Shadow work is more than journal prompts. It’s more than bad feelings and behavior.

In this live we go into what it truly means to know your shadow:

- What is your shadow’s name?

- What is its language?

- What is its actions?

- What is the pleasure you gain from your shadow?

- What is it’s purpose?

Shadow work has many layers and nuance. It’s time to do the real shadow work and bring in big medicine 🪶⚡️✨

In this life I GO DEEP into understanding the four phases of healing. So many of us don’t understand that there are phases to our healing. Instead, we listen and follow New Age rhetoric that keeps us stuck and plateaued in our healing.

The four phases go as followed:

1.) Awareness - the mind. Therapy, breathwork, sound baths, tarot. Concepts of the mind and curiosity.

2.) Body - Somatics. Plant medicines. This is where main stream spirituality is currently at. An explosion of nervous system work, trauma stored in the body, plant medicines.

3.) Shadow - Deep innerwork. This is the part of the healing journey many of us are at yet refuse to acknowledge. This is the phase we try and spiritually bypass. Main stream spirituality has yet to catch up here.

4.) Spirit - Wisdom. A deep knowing. Where lessons are imprinted on your spirit. There is a deep knowing that is gained here.

Join the conversation and let me know where you’re at in your healing journey after watching. Let’s do this work.

Too much bullsh*t has been projected within spirituality. The belief that affirmations, rubbing crystals on our third eye, and taking plant medicine every week will heal us.

No.

This is an extreme form of extraction and privilege. Real healing is in the mud. It is where you are confronting the darkest parts of yourself and pushing through anyways. Shadow work is for the warriors. It is for those of us who hold strong spirits and understand the urgency of confronting the shadows and learning how to heal them.

🪶 My work here is not to sip mimosas in Puerto Rico on stolen land, consume plant medicines, and call it a retreat. No. My work here is to get us uncomfortable. It’s to look at what we’ve been running from. And through that process our spirits learn a deep level of humility, reverence, and integrity. We discover the medicine that we hold in our spirits and that of our ancestors.

There’s a misconception that medicine is all love and light. Our deepest medicine is hidden in our shadows. It is what has been buried, not only ancestrally, but also by ourselves. Shadow work is the process of digging these pieces out and learning how to hold the medicine in a GOOD and REVERENT way.

We discuss:

🌿 Knowing medicine without shadow is illusion

🪶 Our shadows hold our medicine

⚡️ How to reclaim your medicine within the shadow

& much more

This is the part of the healing journey that many don’t talk about. The part where we must confront our darkness. The part where we are asked to sacrifice our comfort in order to progress in our wheels / journeys.
