Meeting the Shadow.
What is Shadow?
The term "shadow" was first used by Carl G. Jung to
describe the repressed or denied part of the Self. Robert
Bly popularized this idea in A Little Book on the Human
Shadow.
Bly says that we were each born into a "360-degree
personality." As infants we expressed the full breadth of
our human nature, without editing or censoring.
As we grew up, however, we learned that certain slices of
our 360-degree pie were unacceptable to the people around
us. Maybe we were shamed for crying or punished for being
angry. Maybe we were ridiculed for wanting attention or
acting proud of ourselves. So, we learned to repress those
slices of our pie; the ones that got us hurt. According to
Bly, it was as if we threw these unacceptable qualities
over our shoulder into a bag, which we've been dragging
around behind us ever since.
What
to expect in “Meeting the Shadow”
This one-day workshop has been designed as a personal
growth process, which brings your hidden powers out of the
shadow and into the light. We all have these hidden powers
within us. But we don't always allow ourselves to use them.
We have all been hurt, and we have all learned to hide
parts of ourselves so we don't get hurt again.
In this workshop you will have a way to explore the inner
landscape and discover the gold that is hiding in the
shadows. It is a way to become more of who you really are.
You will see how to face the hurt, fear and anger, and
learn how to live more fully.
Carl Jung said "Enlightenment is not imagining figures of
light but making the darkness conscious” and this truly is
the way to love ourselves for the journeys we have chosen.
