Personal Childhood And Past Trauma Stories:
Shadow Work Explaination
September 10, 2022
Okay, so healing is a lifelong kind of thing. I remember when I first started doing really deep shadow work for myself — where you just look at what comes up and ask, Why does that make me feel some type of way? Is this inner child? Is this past life? Where is this coming from?
When I first started, I was like, There’s no fucking end to this, and why would I even want to do it? But now it’s effortless. Does it ever end? I don’t know. I haven’t gotten to the end yet. But it’s not an all-day, every-day kind of process anymore.
Now, I don’t yell at my kids. I don’t care about passive-aggressive stuff. When someone tries to trash my name or talk down to me in the comments, I can respond lovingly, kindly, and with help for them. So it reaches a point where you’ve healed enough that it’s not painful anymore.
When my family/friend group went to Connecticut to visit my sister, I had stabbing pains in my gum line. Just a healing didn’t take care of it — we had to look at three past lives connected to it, plus inner child work and healings. But we were able to fix it, heal it, and it was good. It just took a little digging, but I knew where to dig. That’s the point — knowing where to go.
The process of shadow work isn’t to get it to where you never need it again. It’s to get it to where you know exactly where to go, what to do, what to look at, in order to rectify a situation.
Like right now — there’s an energetic attack on my business. On my ability to contact clients. Lots of technical stuff. So I’ve done a lot of clean-offs, felt a lot of movement, and handled what I needed to energetically. Then I went the physical route — turning the phone off and on, calling the service provider, all of that.
It’s about being able to navigate through all of it calmly. I know the next step I need to do, and I was able to energetically clean off what needed to be cleared. That’s part of shadow work too.
We don’t do it to heal completely. We do it so shit doesn’t F us up anymore. So we can live a happy, calm existence, and know exactly where to pinpoint to rectify a situation.
Yeah, I think that makes sense. Okay, bye.
