Know Your Darkness – The Secret of Carl Jung’s Shadow Work

Описание: What if the parts of yourself you’ve buried — the anger, the envy, the shame — are not your weakness, but your hidden strength?
Carl Jung called this the shadow: the side of your psyche where everything you deny in yourself is stored. He warned that until you face it, the shadow will control you from the dark.

In this video, we explore Jung’s secret of shadow work — why knowing your own darkness is the key to freedom, how projection traps you in cycles, and how integration leads not to perfection, but to wholeness.
