Shameful Shadows? Or Opportunities for Healing? Reflecting Upon Our Shadow Integration Work Episode #16

from Brown & Spiritual AF · host Dr. Isela Garcia and Mark Sanchez

"Our shadow is made up of all the parts of ourselves that we hide, deny, suppress, and don’t see in ourselves – both the positive and the negative. Our shadow is all the aspects that we reject out of shame, fear or, disapproval. It is made up of any part of ourselves that we believe is unacceptable, will be met with disapproval by others, or that annoys, horrifies or disgusts us about other people or about ourselves. As the great Swiss psychologist C.G. Jung said, 'Our shadow is the person we would rather not be.'” --The Ford Institute In this episode, Isela and Mark reflect upon the shadows they are consciously aware of and share the ways they continue to integrate them.  As they share their experiences through their storytelling, take time to reflect upon your own shadows. Think about the purpose they serve as a part of your spiritual journey.  Mark's Contact Information Mark's Instagram: mark_my_magnificance Isela's Contact Information www.iselagarcia.com Isela's Facebook: LoveBeingSpirituality Isela's 2nd Facebook: Embracing Soul's Journey Live Free Mini Readings with Tina Trinidad 5:30 PM Pacific Time (8:30 ET) Music by Mark Sanchez
