What is shadow work?
2
It is probably the most controversial theme discussed in the psychological circles and all of those deeper into their spiritual work.
3
It is needless to say shadow work can get confusing and that the term shadow work doesn't bring much clarity.
4
Today I will tell you what shadow work is.
5
Due to the term shadow work, one can easily think it holds all kinds of dark and sinister things.
6
Many of us think it involves dark spiritual practices or maybe a process that involves native and malevolent aspects of the personality.
7
But this isn't the case.
8
So what exactly is shadow work?
9
We are born whole, but our wholeness is short-lived because we are also relationally dependent as children.
10
It is natural as babies to need others for support.
11
We are born with this dependency into a family that will socialize us into a society.
12
A society that is too young to understand we are at the early stages of development
13
and haven't reached much past the ego.
14
You can imagine this will cause some trouble.
15
They will teach us that some aspects of ourselves are loved and accepted, while others are not.
16
What is acceptable or not acceptable about us really depends on the perspective and mindset of the family we are born into.
17
Our family will judge and reject all of the aspects of us, they find unacceptable whether they are positive or negative,
18
and will encourage those they find acceptable.
19
And with being relationally dependent, in order to survive, we will do whatever we can to deny and disown those aspects in ourselves that we're disapproved of,
20
while we will be exaggerating those that we're met with approval.
21
So in order to survive, we tend to dissociate from the parts of us that we're disapproved of.
22
This will create a fracture within a psyche and it is the first coping mechanism we will develop.
23
This fracture is what we today call conscious and the subconscious mind
24
and is the first self-preservation coping strategy we develop in childhood.
25
Famous revolutionary psychologist Carl Jung, during his studies with Freud,
26
noticed that people had conscious and unconscious aspects of themselves and that there were certain things a person can be aware of,
27
and then other aspects about themselves they would be completely oblivious to.
28
Being aware or being conscious of something really means to shed light on that aspect.
29
Consciousness historically has been referred to as the light.
30
So to be able to see something means that this something was illuminated in the light of consciousness.
31
If something is unconscious, we cannot see it, therefore we are unaware of it.
32
If something is left in a dark room, we cannot see it due to darkness surrounding it.
33
This is where Carl Jung gave birth to the idea of
34
the term shadow to name all of those aspects of a person.
35
They themselves are unaware of.
36
So human shadow is any aspect of the self that we are unaware of.
37
The reason why human shadow mostly contains the negative things is due to our tendency to deny and suppress aspects of ourselves.
38
We or others found negative.
39
But this doesn't at all mean that shadow consists of negative aspects entirely.
40
This is one of the biggest misconceptions about the human shadow.
41
Although it is more likely we will suppress jealousy rather than a talent we have, shadow is also filled with rejected aspects that are truly positive.
42
This is actually mostly true for those who carry shame and struggle with low self-esteem.
43
How can something positive end up in our shadow, suppressed?
44
Let's go by an example.
45
Let's say that a little girl was born with a good sense of self, aware of what she likes and doesn't like, and with a tendency to openly speak her mind.
46
She is honest like most kids are, but let's say she was born into a family where girls should be quiet and obedient.
47
She should be sweet and presentable, but in no way should she assert her opinion if she wishes to be accepted within this family.
48
The family will reject her when she shows assertiveness and confidence, so for the sake of survival,
49
she will start to reject the same aspect within herself as this guarantees her the acceptance of her social group.
50
She will suppress that aspect of herself first intentionally in order to receive love, and in her adult life,
51
she will show up as sweet and obedient, probably live life on other people's terms.
52
Her life will be painful because parts of her personality have remained trapped.
53
Her psyche divided and parts of her consciousness are actually not present in her up-to-date life experience.
54
Those aspects of her are now hidden so deeply that they don't even get to experience life.
55
This can impoverish everyday life experience and depending on the degree of dissociation, this will put her into working on her feelings.
56
After working with her feelings, she might discover that these limitations and conditions for love were in her subconscious
57
and result in her realizing she isn't obedient little girl, rather confident and assertive, just as she once was.
58
Once she embraces and embodies that aspect of herself again, she will awaken the confidence to create a life as she finds good.
59
This will give her the assertiveness she needs to sort herself out, instead of remaining obedient to her family and everyone around her.
60
How does a negative aspect end up in the human shadow?
61
I will give you an example.
62
Let's say you have a child.
63
This child starts getting really angry
64
and it is born into a family where anger is not an okay emotion to express or even feel.
65
This child gets shamed and punished for the anger and will then make effort to not show this emotion again.
66
At first it will be a conscious effort until it becomes so habitual it goes into the subconscious mind.
67
This child will suppress and deny this anger to a point they won't even see the anger in themselves.
68
As an adult, they most likely won't even be aware of their anger and will have trouble saying no.
69
Since he has denied that aspect of himself to show up, he will not be able to look at himself clearly.
70
Might even relate to himself as a completely easygoing person.
71
If others point out his passive aggressiveness or pathological niceness, he might want to work with someone to discover and release any suppressed feelings.
72
As a result, he might become aware of his anger and the way it damaged his relationships.
73
By then facing his anger directly all of his other coping behavior will stop running his life
74
and his relationships will now become more meaningful and fun.
75
The important thing to have in mind is that when we suppress a certain aspect of ourselves, it does not disappear, it does not go away with time,
76
it only fades from our awareness.
77
This is why we do so many rash things in life where we don't even understand why we do what we do.
78
This fragmentation is the reason we have no control of ourselves.
79
As adults we are expected to do better, have a better grip on reality, but instead we fall into same behaving patterns,
80
self-destructive behaviors, and all because of our shadow.
81
Now, many resist to do shadow work.
82
Some of them think if they allow themselves to feel these difficult emotions
83
that they will end up attracting more of the negative into their life.
84
And some are just afraid, because it takes a lot of courage to come to face the pain of having to split yourself into pieces
85
and lose a piece of yourself for the sake of being loved and accepted.
86
Reality is that the original pain you endured, that feeling of rejection, will come to the surface each time you approach shadow work.
87
The same feeling of rejection you felt your first time with your parents.
88
It will make you feel like you will be punished again.
89
And for those who fear to attract more of the negative if they allow themselves to feel negative emotions, it is understandable.
90
This is a very common confusion amongst the people who exercise the law of attraction consciously.
91
but fearfully I must add, what we attract is what we unconsciously or consciously believe.
92
To do shadow work is to excavate
93
and finally feel those emotions we have been avoiding for
94
so long because those suppressed emotions have been the ones attracting painful circumstance in your life just to be seen.
95
This is why you feel like law of assumption or attracting good things into your life doesn't come easy.
96
Our shadow is a point of attraction because the purpose of this life is to become whole again.
97
For this reason, contents of the shadow can emerge through different situations where we will be confronted with those difficult emotions we have been avoiding,
98
or it can emerge in our conscious efforts to do shadow work.
99
These difficult emotions are energies inside our bodies, so confronting them can feel risky.
100
This is why self-awareness is not an easy task.
101
This fragmentation of self is fate of everybody on earth as
102
we have all undergone the process of splitting into parts due to socialization.
103
We have split into conscious and subconscious.
104
This is the birth of self-hate that shows up through self-rejection.
105
The emptiness we feel is what is left of us after leaving all of those suppressed aspects of ourselves behind.
106
The fact that we disown them means we have lost them.
107
This can even feel like we aren't really living our lives.
108
It can make us dissociate from ourselves and stop feeling joy.
109
But the entire universe is on our side and wants us to become whole again.
110
Everything in the world is headed in the direction of expansion and growth, and the split self is seeking to be unified again.
111
During our life, we will be presented with every single opportunity to see
112
and feel into those aspects of ourselves we have suppressed, denied, and disowned.
113
Just like the shadows in our physical life, our shadow self is always chasing us, us, hungry for us to see it.
114
It doesn't matter how fast or far we can run, our shadows will chase us until we are willing to do the work that must be done.
115
This is what shadow work really is, it is the process of becoming aware of what you can no longer see.
116
This work has become quite controversial especially with those in think positive communities.
117
This is why I would like you to watch my video called false versus true positivity and how to integrate your shadow.
118
We as human beings naturally have a tendency to avoid pain so doing shadow work might seem counterintuitive.
119
But avoiding pain is not a long-term strategy
120
and we must be brave to become aware of those aspects of ourselves
121
if we are ever to integrate the pain and the emptiness within.
122
The only way out of the pain is into the pain.
123
So shadow work is the only way to a free life.
124
Shadow work is a popular term in psychology circles to describe a process of integration of the unconscious.
125
The more you become aware, more it will feel like life is a brand new experience,
126
because those suppressed portions of your consciousness now return to you and join you in your present life experience.
127
A lot of illness is healed through the integration of suppressed emotions, and we can even prove that most of the illness today resides in the unconscious mind
128
because the unconscious mind is equal to our body.
129
And ultimately, this work is about bringing awareness
130
and love to those parts of yourself that have been rejected and denied for so long.
131
So, if you ask me, there is no greater form of light work than diving deep into shadow work.
132

Thank you for watching.

Что такое техника Shadowing?
Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
