Shadow Work

I had a coach once suggest to me that I needed to "swallow my own razor blade" while I was in the middle of some story about my unhappiness and how I was behaving like I was because I felt "dead inside" even though how I was behaving was not in integrity with what I wanted to create in my life.

She didn't tell me what moves to make like "leave the job" or "If I was you I would..." nope. She asked me "what would it be like if you swallowed your own razor blade?"


Wait, what?
Ummmm.. Ma'am.
She was more or less asking what would happen if I faced my shit rather than turning away from it. ☠️

It is probably one of the better questions I've been asked in my life so far. I was able to get into that question. Getting into questions like this is a part of what Carl Jung referred to as shadow work.

When I read energy this is partially what I am looking at because your aura holds much of this information. I can see what you're feeling, those around you, what you're avoiding; creating...it's an incredibly vulnerable space to be in. I'm grateful for those of you who come in for sessions and who are open to exploring the multifaceted being that you are. Xo
