Shadow Work

When people offer me advice I usually try to do a little research and see if I feel it is something that I understand and agree with. So when a stranger told me that I really needed to do some shadow work I said, “Thanks for your concern, I will check into that.”

I was with others when the stranger offered this advice. After the person left they asked me what shadow work was. I had no clue and I told them so, and I said I would look into it.

Here is what I learned.

“According to Carl Jung, it can be said to consist of energy patterns, known as selves or sub-personalities that were disowned — pushed down into our unconscious in childhood, as part of our coping strategies.”

Now to me that translates to multiple personalities. I don’t believe I have multiple personalities. If they are hiding inside me comfortably and having no effect on my life, why would I want to wake them up!
