007. Shadow Work: Turning What You’ve Hidden Into What Heals
Manage episode 508272354 series 3672495
Shadow work gets a bad rap. Most people think it’s scary, heavy, or about fighting demons—but in reality, shadow work is one of the most loving practices you can do for yourself.
In this episode of Love is Medicine, Gina and Amber break down what shadow work really means: welcoming home the parts of yourself you’ve hidden, rejected, or been told weren’t acceptable. Instead of pushing them down, you learn to walk hand in hand with them—and that’s where true healing happens.
Together, we’ll explore:
✨ What the “shadow” actually is (and why it’s not as scary as it sounds)
✨ How ignoring your shadow leads to self-betrayal, burnout, and repeating old cycles
✨ Why embracing your shadow brings freedom, authenticity, and self-love
✨ Simple, practical ways to start shadow work in your everyday life
✨ A guided meditation to help you meet your shadow with compassion
By the end, you’ll see that shadow work isn’t about fixing yourself—it’s about becoming whole.
