The Power of Shadow Work

I've missed you all! It feels good to be back

Hello beautiful listeners!

It’s been a little bit! I had anticipated being off one week this February, but then a snow storm came and thankful one of the WMPG Snow Angels covered my show so that I could stay off the slippery roads. So getting back to my show feels really good, and while I missed producing it, it was nice to have a little break.

Today’s episode is all about shadow work, which helps you learn how to be inclusive of the parts of yourself you reject so that you be your whole self. After all, your shadow offers lessons and gifts that can super charge your personal growth and healing.

I weave together the work of Carl Jung (shadow work) and Richard Schwartz (Internal Family Systems, IFS) to give you a sense as to how I engage personally and professionally with this important theme.

And because 30 minutes is not nearly enough time to do it justice, next week’s March newsletter will dive into the shadow as well. It will include a story of a time in I was totally surprised by what I had put in my own shadow, and an art therapy guidebook you can use to start communicating with your shadow.

But, this episode stands on it’s own. The guided meditation blends the work of Guy Meadows and IFS. This is different from what you’ll get next week AND a lovely way to begin welcoming all the parts of you, even the unwelcome ones. I hope it serves you well!

As always, feel free to hit reply or comment below- I’d love to hear your thoughts and see your artwork if you’d like to share it!

From my heart to yours,

Stephanie
