Discover what shadow work really is and how to reclaim and integrate your shadow self for healing and transformation.

Your shadow is made up of everything you hide from the world: your fears, your shame and your wounds, but also your untapped brilliance, unexpressed talents and potential. By learning to embrace and integrate these hidden aspects of yourself, you can unlock profound healing, self-awareness and personal power.

With over 20 practices that blend ancient wisdom and modern psychology, this transformative guide will help you:
  • Recognize the shadow and how you create and project it
  • Find and express the golden or ‘positive’ shadow self
  • Transform fear and shame into loving awareness, energy and power
  • Integrate the parental, sexual, ancestral and childhood shadows.

This book will take you on a life-changing and healing journey of self-acceptance. It’s time to stop running from your shadow and start befriending it. It’s time to do the shadow work.

Part of this book was previously published as Dreaming Through Darkness (ISBN: 9781781807354).
Charlie Morley is a best-selling author and lucid dreaming teacher who has 15 years’ experience in the fields of sleep, dreams, shadow work, and mindfulness. He has been lucid dreaming since his teens and, at the age of 25, became one of the first Westerners officially “authorized to teach” lucid dreaming practice within the Karma Kagyu lineage of Tibetan Buddhism. This offers him a unique insight into lucid dreaming and a rare ability to synthesize both Western and Eastern perspectives on lucidity. www.charliemorley.com
