Shadow Work Explained: The Shadow Self as Your Pathway to Divinity In this episode of A Soulful Rebellion, I delve into the transformative practice of shadow work, highlighting its importance for anyone healing from religious trauma. I explain what shadow work is, exploring its roots in both psychology and spirituality, and how it can guide us toward deeper self-awareness and acceptance. I also share practical steps you can take to begin this work—like journaling and self-reflection—while addressing some of the common misconceptions that surround the practice. I close the episode with a gentle reminder that shadow work is not a one-time fix, but a lifelong journey toward wholeness and self-acceptance.
