Shadow Self.
When your mind and heart are truly open abundance will flow to you effortlessly and easily.
Question:
Hey Deepak, I was watching Super Soul Sunday some time ago on OWN and you were part of the conversation on my “shadow” I found the topic interesting, and I have pondered and identified my shadow, but I don’t know what I’m supposed to do with that information. Do I fight my shadow, accept it, Use it, Share it with others? What is the next step in freeing myself from projecting my shadow?
Response:
Don’t fight your shadow, that is judging it and strengthening it. The shadow is a part of yourself that has become separated from your conscious self through shame, trauma or fear, and until it is reintegrated back into your self, it will undermine, sabotage and conflict with your conscious desires and positive feelings. The shadow must first be seen and acknowledged without blame or judgment. From there, its story of pain can be heard and felt. Then understanding and forgiveness will bring healing and finally reintegration into the larger self. It doesn’t happen instantly and every person’s journey of healing will be unique, but if you proceed with love and compassion, the healing will take place.
Love,
Deepak
