Mindful Shadow Work: For Unconditional Self Love

Your Shadow is the pathway to unconditional self love for holds within it the unloved and unseen aspects of your soul. Within this first lesson, we are going to be defining and exploring your Shadow so you can begin healing it.

As you grow and evolve on your spiritual journey you transcend to higher levels of consciousness. You learn to detach from conditions and patterns of the ego and heal shadow aspects and wounds within. Within this lesson we explore your path as you become aware of your healing journey.

When you awaken on your spiritual journey, your Shadow often becomes revealed to you. Denial and self-doubt are common and natural responses; however, it is essential to look within and inquire about what these new truths mean for you and your life. Within this lesson we explore your conditioning and ego as you discern what is right and true for you. Disconnect from your mind as you reconnect with your Soul.

Jungian archetypes are defined as universal, archaic symbols and images that derive from the collective unconscious. Within this lesson we will explore the archetypes as you use them to identify shadow aspects within you.

The Archetype of the Innocent begins in childhood, when we perceive the world as beautiful and perfect. As we grow, we become marred by experiences in our lives which cause us to become pessimistic and cynical. This can become amplified during the awakening process, when illusions are shattered and we come to terms with the divine matrix of the world in which we live. Within this lesson we explore the Shadow of the Innocent and the evolving of consciousness as you transcend on your path.

The Orphan Archetype is the aspect of ourselves which has experienced the pain of neglect, abandonment, or abuse. Often we are wounded by those who are unawakened, or tragedy causes us to experience loss at an early age. Initially, the Orphan may feel victim to circumstances, resort to manipulation, and resist taking ownership. Within this lesson we explore the Shadow of the Orphan and the evolving of consciousness as you transcend on your path.

The Warrior Archetype embodies the energy of the Masculine that is within us all, regardless of gender. It calls us to have courage, strength, and integrity as we live by the values of our Soul. The early Warrior operates from the Shadow of conditioning and is often reckless, aggressive, and excessively guarded. Within this lesson we explore the Shadow of the Warrior and the evolving of consciousness as you transcend on your path.

The Caregiver Archetype embodies the energy of the Feminine that is within us all, regardless of gender. In this helper role we provide unconditional love, often without recognition, to anyone in who is in need. The early Caregiver often becomes a martyr through self-sacrifice, enabling, or rescuing. Within this lesson we explore the Shadow of the Caregiver and the evolving of consciousness as you transcend on your path.

Wounds are often passed down through the family line which is why it is essential to break the karmic family patterns. As you heal the wounds within your family, you also clear the path for the generations to come.

Love and Forgiveness is the birthplace for all healing. Within this lesson we explore the process of ho’oponopono as you learn to forgive yourself and let go of all that no longer serves you to begin truly loving yourself.

This only causes you more pain and suffering, to truly embrace unconditional love, you have to love all those neglected and unloved aspects of Self. This exercise is about being raw and honest with yourself so you can embrace unconditional love within as you strive towards wholeness and unification.
