The Hidden Power of Shadow Work: 3 practical exercises to change your life, heal your childhood trauma, and achieve personal freedom from your unconscious habits Paperback – December 14, 2022

I began this book from a perspective, of already finding myself on the far side of this journey. My own life having been put back in order in many of the same ways described and with all the benefits this book suggests will happen. THIS IS WORTH DOING.Still, I was continually surprised by the new perspectives and insights offered in this book ND saw many things I wished I had come across in my own process . These insights were brought about by seeing new maps, or ways to think about various aspects of self, and that in my mind this is the greatest benefit of this book. Both in the micro sense I have just described, as well as for the book and the process it describes as a whole.One of the biggest challenges of self discovery in my opinion is knowing how to think about what you have now, and what exactly it is that would be more beneficial. You really need a map which shows you where you are, where you are going, and what you need to do to get there. A living map that uses you as a key. That map is this book. It asks you as much as it tells you, and it's beautifully done.The author is very good about giving you a fantastically relevant set of terms, history, and general familiarity with what you need to do to have this kind of conversation with yourself and its done so in easy clear language.Its the kind of book I want to keep a copy or two of on hand, to give out to people in my life who could really benefit from its gifts.

I love how this author broke the book into three parts, for easier reading. Part one introduces you to the concepts of shadow work. Part two enables you to meet your “own shadow”. Part three talks about methods to try to find inner peace. The emphasis is on acceptance, whether you are feeling good or bad emotions. Identifying your feelings and triggers is the first step. There are exercises where you ask yourself questions that require you to think about how you react in certain situations. Here you can identify your behavior patterns and habits. This self-awareness is key toward understanding and addressing how you perceive yourself. I appreciated the helpful acronyms to remember methods when doing shadow work. By getting to know yourself better, you can focus on your positive characteristics and be prepared to manage any repressed or negative feelings you have buried inside. There are several easy exercises you can implement into your daily life to help you and the book has great suggestions.

This book is very informative, one of the best I've read. It immediately got me engaged and caught my interest. I felt like the author was talking directly to me, describing the various shadows that lurk within. The author goes into detail about what your shadow is and why we have them. He talks about the different Shadow Types, and He offers different techniques to work with your shadow, embrace it and get to know it well. There are numerous exercises that help you thru identifying and understanding the shadows within yourself. I like that the author gives you plenty of information on the subject without going on and on with repetitive info. He also offers several techniques I've not read about before. This book is very well written and thoroughly researched. I highly recommend reading this book and doing the exercises if you want to get to know your shadow better and work thru problems you mite not even realize you're still holding onto.

I've been hearing about Shadow Work on social media and through word of mouth, but I wasn't entirely sure what it was or how it could be used to heal.This book helped me understand what shadow work is and how I can apply it to my everyday life.It helped me learn more about myself while providing clear instructions on how to perform the work and what I'd need to do to get the most out of it.I LOVED the exercises!What separates this book from others is the level of detail and the easy-to-follow steps in performing the work.I'm hardly an expert, but in time, I think I'll get there—Thanks for sharing such a beautiful work with the world!

There are many books written about shadow work from the very deep esoteric underpinnings to the cutesy journal kinds of things that belie the importance of the topic.This book hits exactly the right note in introducing the concept and then helping the reader apply it to their own life. Info is good but unless you engage with it, nothing changes. And that's what I especially like here.You're offered practical exercises that you can do in your own time to look at the parts of yourself that need some extra love ALONG with the foundation so you know why you're doing what you're doing.Well-written with a friendly tone, this book is an excellent place to start your shadow work journey. Highly recommended!

This book is a breath of fresh air in the self-help realm. It doesn't just throw prompts at you; he breaks down the core of shadow work, making it accessible for both newcomers and those already on their journey. The step-by-step techniques are very helpful, and I appreciate the blend of clinical psychology and mysticism. Overall, it's an engaging guide, full of effective tools for self-improvement.

This is a great workbook to explore our shadow-selves and learn to heal from traumas or limiting beliefs that hold us back from our full potential and from being happy. I'm really finding the work deep and thorough and exactly what I need to unpack certain thought processes that happen within myself and others around me that I'm trying to understand better. Great book, highly recommended.

Although I conclude this book to not be for everyone, the guidance described within may serve greatly those who are in need of it.

A complete self-help system, deepening our "shadows" and awakening our consciousness to accept and work with our formerly dark side.

I’m enjoying this book, the author put great efforts into producing it, and I find it engaging and professionally edited.I was interested in beginning my own practice of shadow working for some time, and I jumped on the offer to preview a copy pre-release. I’d recommend anyone to give an honest effort to the methods set forth here in well crafted guide to shadow working. We often carry the results of previous generational trauma, often our ancestors never even thought to spend the time on introspection or to learn and integrate their shadow for emotional healing and wellbeing.Thank you!

This is an excellent book for shadow work. This book provides simple, easy and practical tools that can lead to real healing. I had a few aha moments while doing the exercises. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who would like to work on integrating the shadow self.

I wholeheartedly recommend this book! Although English is not my mother tongue, it is easy for me to understand. Furthermore, the book is easy to read and easy to understand. You don't need any prior knowledge to work with it. I would call it beginner friendly. In terms of subject matter, it is more of a magickal book, but it is also suitable for positive personality development if one is spiritually inclined. I look forward to more works by the author.

Its realy helpfull and motivative, identifying shadow traits
