The Integrated Shadow - Becoming Fully Yourself


Listen Later

I want to speak with you about becoming more fully yourself through the integration of your Shadow. Dr. Carl Jung defines it this way:

"The Shadow personifies everything that the person refuses to acknowledge about himself" and represents "a tight passage, a narrow door, whose painful constriction no one is spared who goes down to the deep well." 

Quoting from my book: Recovering and Healing After the Narcissist:

"The Shadow not only contains the painful, sad, traffic elements of the psyche. Within the Shadow are powerful, vibrant images of beauty, humor and truth."

Access your Shadow through writing down your dreams, which are jewels of the night.  Write down your dreams and discover the pure gold of the unconscious. Sometimes there are fragments. Be patient with yourself and discover the treasures there.

Another way of accessing your Shadow is through unedited writing with pen or on your computer. Be unjudgmental with yourself and discover the treasure of the unconscious in this way.

Listen to beautiful music that is personal to you as a form of letting the unconscious flow. Go inside of the music and see what occurs. It is a wonderful mystery.
