Shadow Work: Embracing Both the Dark & the Light in You
Bringing awareness to what is unconscious in us and facing our fears, comes from a deep place of self-love.
"Awareness is like the sun. When it shines on things, they are transformed."

How do I get started?
If you are reading this, then I imagine that you have already began considering the possibility of going deeper into your personal work in order to live a more authentic, healthier, and purposeful life. Today, may be the perfect day to begin asking the hard questions, such as:
- What am I most afraid of?
- What am I ashamed of?
- Is there something that I have been unwilling to face because it’s too painful to consider?
- What do I not want others to know about me, both pleasant and unpleasant?
- What makes my heart sing?
- When do I feel most alive?
Shadow Integration Work
Self-inquiry is only the beginning of Shadow Integration Work. Willingness to befriend the shadow and embody the light within requires a deep commitment to ourselves that usually stems from feeling sick and tired of feeling sick and tired of the same old fill-in-the-blank.
At first, it may seem quite counter-intuitive to move towards the pain, the anger, and the anxiety. After all, who wants to feel these feelings? However, the more you are able to summon and welcome back the parts of yourself that have been denied, rejected, unloved, abused, shamed, hidden, or forgotten, the more whole and supported you will feel.

The truth is, no one can do the work for you. You’ve got to take charge of your life and embark on the hero's journey yourself, if you haven’t already, and discover and face your dragons, one at a time. In my own Shadow Integration Work, I have found that the bigger the dragon is, the bigger the treasure. If we were to decide to work together, I will help you get to know your dragons, from a supportive, safe, compassionate, embodied presence, and encouraging space.
