The Hidden Function of the Shadow Self

The idea of casting a shadow is meaningful. In psychology it is a way we understand hidden parts of ourself.

Maybe you’re grieving a dream you abandoned and feel resentful of someone chasing theirs.

Maybe you have abandoned your voice or shrunk to make others comfortable and now you are irritated by someone elses confidence.

Maybe you’re remembering how often you were told to be quiet.

Maybe someone else expressing boundaries hits a nerve because you don't feel you have a right to your own.

Every uncomfortable emotion asks a question.

“What important part of me have I forgotten or what is this trying to enlighten me about”

The shadow is never the problem.

Ignoring it usually is though.
