The Shadow Side

Shedding Light On The Dark Side Of Personality

The shadow side of our personalities is everything about ourselves that we do not know or refuse to know. Whilst it is known as the dark side, it is the sum total of both positive and negative traits, light and dark, that we refuse to identify as our own. The shadow holds all our beliefs, feelings and potential that are at odds with our self-image and are incompatible with who we think we are. Our shadow is contained by the fear and non-acceptance of the duality of our natures, but it is only through facing and learning to befriend our shadow that we gain access to our full potential. This one-day workshop is designed to shed light on the dark side of our personalities. Whilst this is a potentially heavy topic it is approached with a light touch, a dose of humour and an underlying compassion for ourselves and others.

  • Define what the shadow side is and how it is formed
