What Shadow Work ACTUALLY Looks Like (A Practical Daily Habit)

I have received a lot of questions asking for practical ways to start doing shadow work, so here is one easy to start with method. I see a lot of descriptions and explanations of shadow work online, but very few practical applications. Hope this helps. This is not my original idea and full credit goes to the 4 amazing authors that wrote "Integral Life Practice". An absolutely wonderful book that is extremely practical for shadow work and many other topics too. Book recommendation: Integral Life Practice, by Wilber, Patten, Leonard, and Morelli Auto - self-directed Biblio - books/library Therapy - Healing So, autobibliotherapy = self-directed healing via books In this 3 hour playlist, I will summarise my library down to 15 book recommendations that will significantly impact the effectiveness and depth of your inner work journey.
