Shadow work is a term used to describe the psychological activity of uncovering, understanding, and eventually integrating the parts of ourselves that we have denied or repressed.

In this book I explore how our modern culture has influence many of us to behave in ways that cause us and other to feel disrupted. Recognising ourselves in these modern shadow archetypes, we can become more self aware, develop healthier boundaries and feel encouraged to accept and work through uncomfortable feelings. Shadow work allows individuals to gain a better understanding of themselves and to bring out the aspects of the self that may have been overlooked or denied. It can help individuals to gain a better sense of balance, form a healthy sense of self, focus their life in a new direction, and discover a life purpose that feels meaningful.
