Overview

Our Shadow comes from what we've learned throughout our lives--our drives, habits, values, preferences, and needs--and comes flooding up from our nonconscious selves to our conscious selves, even before our conscious selves are aware, often resulting in responses that we otherwise might rather carefully consider. Personal development is largely growth of our Shadow selves--our adaptive unconscious where our deepest senses of self, morality, intimacy, vulnerability, and spirituality live. Shadow Light: Illuminations at the Edge of Darkness offers a wealth of research, ideas, and practices to help us grow our Shadow selves and accelerate our personal evolution. This is the companion write-in workbook to Shadow Light. In it, lessons from each chapter are organized into exercises with write-on lines for responses and reflections.
