Shadow work

The Shadow as defined by Carl Jung: Is the unconscious aspects of our personality which the conscious ego does not identify in itself. The shadow encompasses all the different processes of our mind that take place outside of our awareness. 

Shadow work, then, is the process of making the unconscious conscious. It’s the process of exploring our unconscious thoughts, emotions and actions. In doing so, we gain awareness of our unconscious impulses and can then choose whether and how to act on them.
