When you start working on yourself watch out for the nay Sayers. Think about how static that is to stand in the way of people who want to do well, and be a light in the dark. It's just that your light is casting a shadow on them, it's easier to point a finger than to walk in the light too. Pride keeps people where they are stuck, and it's intimidating to see others press forward. They thought they had all the answers. These same people who tell you your goals are dumb have made knocking others down their goal. They missed their dream and they can't stand to see you get yours.
Don't worry about the nay Sayers, if they trigger you that just means you have some nay saying in yourself that needs to be seen and healed ❤ they are innocent, just unconscious souls that need love and encouragement too 😊
Facing inward, questioning how your identity was molded throughout childhood. Those external influences; your parents, your siblings, and your peers...their unhealed wounds were most likely, unintentionally projected upon you as a child, creating your belief system about the world around you and about yourself. As you peel away the false beliefs, biases and insecurities you will discover hidden all along, your greatest strengths, growth, and your purpose.
Incredibly sesinked and accurate. Thank you! I feel like I've been a receptical for others unhealed wounds, like a leaf blown angrily to nothingness at their storms. So when they look at me all they see is a reflection of their ugly open wounds staring them in the face and forcing them to confront what they're desperately trying to suppress. How do I start to peel away all that?
I wish I could meditate. I’ve tried, I’ll keep trying of course, but man my mind won’t shut the hell up. The thoughts are never finished. It’s just noise. I’m not sure how to deal with that, as I feel some thoughts slip through without me noticing only to then fester into something destructive. I know practice is often the only way, I guess I’m just wondering what you would suggest to work on first when learning how to meditate.
@nocturne000 what helped me is to just meditate 5 min a day in bed before you fall asleep. It's a good start. Keep it simple, observe your breath. When distracted by thoughts, emotions, sensations just return to the breath. Keep doing it. In time your focus will grow, you can meditate much longer and you become more relaxed. Beginning is frustrating with the feeling you dont succeed. But dont be easily defeated. Play the long game. Make it a habit. Dont read a million books about it. Eventually, mindfulness originates from buddhism. Buddha said it is simple. You don't have to be wise or learned or experienced for meditation. It's for everyone. Just observe your breath, see reality as it is. This also means the distractions, thoughts, and frustrations you have about it. Its not about becoming a euphoric person. Its about accepting reality as it is. That is what's the breating exercise all about. Observe your breath, when you notice you are distracted, return to the breath. Thats it.
@@REL602 the shadow is “the hidden aspects of your psyche.” Basically, the opposite or the unknown aspects of who you think you are.It’s basically trying to help you pinpoint your strengths and weaknesses, so you can become that person you admire and are afraid of being.
Wow, thanks for sharing this incredible content on Carl Jung's psychology! It's so thought-provoking how Jung emphasizes the importance of confronting our dark sides for personal growth. His insights into the shadow self and the concept of individuation really resonate with me. Can't wait to delve deeper into this!
The greatest work in life, the greatest journey, the greatest purpose....is an internal one. To learn about one's self, understand one's conditioning, to dive deep into one's psyche and soul. I've been doing more mindfulness to help with this, using books like 30 Days to Discover Who I Am by Harper Daniels and The Power of Now.
I find it is most terrifying to choose and step into our most idealistic and best self. This takes the most work and sacrifice. It is truly scary and yet is what haunts us when we know we shortchanged ourselves. The shadow is childsplay in comparison. Giving into ones desires when it doesn't require sacrifice is a cakewalk
Absolutely. This is quite scary as it can truly break things in your life that you’ve considered important. Maybe they’re not truly important, but that’s a hard pill to swallow for me.
It is nice to see a content creator talk about this subject using their own experience. Thank you! I've seen others use and twist Jung's content on shadow work to create fear and illusion. If you fail to know your shadow self you are very susceptible to the trap of influence outside your own experience. Bernaysian psychology can be dangerous and Knowing yourself allows you to know the pitfalls of man and the shadow self triggering influence of others which can provoke you to coagulate with the irrational madness of the mindless beast mob. R.D. Laing's work involving subconscious game theory was also helpful in understanding myself in order to understand others better as well as myself, driving compassion and understanding. Those that haven't found it yet check out Adam Curtis's three part series called "The Trap" you won't regret it.
Every single one of this world Has a dark side As well as A Divine Light side Dark side is not your true self It's the side which you need to Conquer And Your Divine Light side 🕯️ Is your true self Which is inbuilt within you Which is need to be Explore 🌼🌺
I don't see that as the message at all. (here) It's about integrating that dark side and not totally conquering it. Make it benefit you to be more authenic.
Incorrect, both the dark and the light side constitutes your true self. The dark side is not conquered but redeemed. You do not kill the light for the dark nor the dark for the light. You find harmony and balance between both. It's all about bringing the dark to light.
This was quite in depth and a nice reminder. It would have been nice to get a bunch of examples of what a shadow side is, more actionable advice and maybe journaling prompts.
Great video. Different moments for all of us, glad to have dived deep in my 18-20s on this topic and have keep those key notes of wisdom into my life still and forever.
My goodness. Your message is great, of course, but I was mesmerized by your voice and your artistry! Thank you for sharing all those things with us, Amir.
I am in conflict with my values often because of my success. I can’t get into what I do, but my biggest fear is becoming a monster. A lot of lives are in my hands as a result of my success and if I ever decide to stop caring, there are no consequences. I think this may be good advice first those who need to make the first few jumps to success but so many of us that are successful have walked a path to the precipice of darkness. I can’t let myself validate the abyss.
I feel like you acknowledged your darker self then. The best way not to fall is to remind yourself how close the cliff is. Know that you can slip and then remind yourself every day what happens if you fall into that abyss.
Im just starting with shadow work myself to resolve trauma and build a secure attachment style. Unfortunately it´s getting harder and harder to find professional help so all I have r channels like urs. Tysm !
My shadow is a destroyer. The person described as psychopath. Intent on eliminating any one or thing that stand before me. It is always there tempting me to do as I wish.
What is the underlying trait of the destroyer / psychopath? That is something you must integrate. Imo it may be logic/rationality. Your shadow may want you to be purely objective without any morals like a robot. I would suggest playing chess or some other competitive activity that allows you express this trait or act of destroying someone. It may be a problem with your self worth. In that case you can integrate the shadow by finding activities that allow you to be selfish.
Ive read a lot of Gabriella burnstein this is a lot of where she relates to and infirms about.. Facing your fear.. ect. She is so inspiring.. I found her when she first came to england over 20 years ago.. guieded me severaly time over the years. She has written many books, May cause Miricals is a good one.
The crucial question is how to do this while working a demanding job? Our brains can't process dedication to two different deep things at the same time. It's why we have sayings like 'If you put your feet in two boats you'll fall in deep water', possibly because they would go in different directions. I struggle with this cuz just when I need a little more time to figure something out about myself, I am pulled away to attend to something I only care about because it brings in money to pay the rent.
Sometimes I wish I had the Superpower to stop time for *everybody else* so I can go and ponder and read the necessary books and do the necessary work. I’d love to pull back and be a hermit for awhile, but life would still go on and there would be holidays and birthdays I’d miss and other important things with the people I love and value.
@@XTRABIG I find it difficult to focus when I have to keep switching between tasks. My problem is the impending work-related task acts like the elephant in the room and when I try to do one thing and focus on it, I completely forget that the world exists let alone the other task/work-stuff. I am so on edge about forgetting my work that in the end I can't do anything. It's more of my ability to 100% completely focus on a thing gets in my way and since I live alone I don't have anyone (apart from alarms) to nudge/poke/remind me that other things exist. It is easy for me to get stuck in doing a thing in full focus and deep detail like the protagonist of Tolkien's Leaf by Niggle. Any ideas? I am aware that for certain types (personality types?) of people this seems easier to do than for others.
I am impressed by your tone, soothing; the depth and conciseness of your expose! And your illustrations, amazing, wjat is the software? Is it your drawing? On the content reach, i appreciate the Yung's horizon summary that you provide here. Much love...and Integration! 🎆
I feel multidimensionally constipated. Our society collectivizes as instructed by media and the ensuing dog-pack mentality. I wish there was someone i could talk to who knew the roads to navigate. I feel so alone, yet know there's plenty of others in the same situation. Good luck to everyone in limbo.
To fully grasp Jung, I recommend studying Kant and the Gnostics. Both shaped Jung . John Vervaerke has an encredible 50 segment lecture series on “The Meaning Crisis” that touches on this
I do agree with the power that lies within the shadow. Fifth year into shadow work, and I have developed a sort of shadow persona, that's an amalgamation of all my trauma. Its so good to let the little rat out once in a while, especially when people ask for it😂 (I'm not violent, just a bratty lil twink)
I just don’t like the reference to dark and light which means good and bad. It just is. To me I don’t like negative and positive, good and bad - judgement. They are all real and just are there, all mixed up together one reflects the other.
The darkness is where everyone including you came from. There is no light in a mother's womb. Only darkness. The darkness is the "unrevealed". Darkness has been demonized by those attempting to oppress and control peoples minds.
You ever become who you really are, then turn back from your real self to your old self? Knowing that one day you may need the new self, you keep him on a shelf? I’m a combat vet…. I’m a father of 3 and a husband…. I’m not the guy I used to be, but he’s certainly in standby in the event he’s needed. I carry a pen because it’s mightier than the sword…. But I always carry a sword….. sometimes diplomacy fails, and when it does, I’m your huckleberry.
Carl Jung began to call his work Analytical Psychology so he could differentiate his work from Freud. Freud continued to call his form of psychology “Psychoanalysis”. In short, Jung was so dope he outshined Siggy & the neurotics!
My shadow is being average, normal, nothing special. I wasted countless opportunities in life due to lies , i lie to myself and others im more, better, that i am in fact. I would hide, change jobs , manipulate... Literally anything to face myself, my average performance, maybe a little below average... I nearly ruined my whole career, .. i almost lead myself to death not to reveal the scale of this catastrophy. Thre. Meet my shadow. Avarage man. It took me 30+ years to name it. Finally. Im speechless. Really don't know what to do with it. Wish me luck. Be smarter then me. Bless you stranger.
I dont think we are able to grasp our entire personality at once it's paradoxical. To be both creative and organized. To be logical and psychic, empathic and happy. Yes, They're gray areas between these. balanced finely... sure but I haven't found a solid middle point on the fence that isn't shifting one way or the other. Like there are paradoxes between these two even. Areas between the poles uncharted. Like the coin flip paradox, using historical coin flip data to predict future flips does increase probability of correctly guessing above 50%. And that's logic and intuition or psychic skill combined. Can I change my bone structure from a 6'0 man to a 5'7 woman? Im not saying its impossible, Im saying the opposite. I Encourage discovery of the shadow. If quantum physics is a paradox to Newtons and with every piece of new knowledge attained, all previous knowledge is more moot today than yesterday... how long does it take to rewrite the universe where things seen impossible today become possible? What do we have to forget in order to learn something more fundamental and more true?
It takes a lot of work to be a complete, well-rounded, disciplined, insightful, emotionally balanced, compassionate, spiritual person; countless hours, more intensive than any university course, a lifelong endeavour, I'm still working on it.
This is something trans people used to teach within indigenous cultures as berdache shamans and healers, and in the current time they embody that journey openly for all to see. So we could witness what it takes to embrace our shadow, because if it does not destroy the norms or beliefs, it is still a victim of the sociert afraid to come out. Our shadow hides our highest potential to rewire the nature of reality and bring great destruction to the world in order to re-build it from the ground up. Our shadow is a beast that is needed because it contains the fire necessary for the passion to lead one's life.
In reality, our dark🌑side,🤔is the unknown🕶️ part of Our🧘Selves. It doesn't necessarily mean that it's evil 🙈, but only because WE=mc2 do not 🚫 know "IT" yet, but once IT is known, "IT" should cheer, not scare US. WE=mc2 are "IT"!

I’d love to pull back and be a hermit for awhile, but life would still go on and there would be holidays and birthdays I’d miss and other important things with the people I love and value.
@@daisyviluck7932 IKR!! I'm glad to have found a fellow who thinks the same. I just said this exact same thing to my therapist yesterday.

Our brains can!! The limitations are yours. Created by you. Accepted by you.
@@XTRABIG I find it difficult to focus when I have to keep switching between tasks. My problem is the impending work-related task acts like the elephant in the room and when I try to do one thing and focus on it, I completely forget that the world exists let alone the other task/work-stuff. I am so on edge about forgetting my work that in the end I can't do anything.
It's more of my ability to 100% completely focus on a thing gets in my way and since I live alone I don't have anyone (apart from alarms) to nudge/poke/remind me that other things exist. It is easy for me to get stuck in doing a thing in full focus and deep detail like the protagonist of Tolkien's Leaf by Niggle.
Any ideas? I am aware that for certain types (personality types?) of people this seems easier to do than for others.
This is a good video. Thank you.
That which you were is the womb of your becoming
Brilliant take on the “shadow”.
I am impressed by your tone, soothing; the depth and conciseness of your expose! And your illustrations, amazing, wjat is the software? Is it your drawing?
On the content reach, i appreciate the Yung's horizon summary that you provide here. Much love...and Integration! 🎆
Ultimate BEST video ever. Thank you for the knowledge and TRUTH.
Well done ... very well done
my shadow is an absolute monster.
I feel multidimensionally constipated.
Our society collectivizes as instructed by media and the ensuing dog-pack mentality.
I wish there was someone i could talk to who knew the roads to navigate.
I feel so alone, yet know there's plenty of others in the same situation.
Good luck to everyone in limbo.
Incredible wisdom
Great video my brother!
My👣shadow is light✨because my☀️Soul is🕯️Bright🎺😎!
Thank you so much! I like to listen to your beautiful voice

i love carl jung so much what i love more about him is that he is deeply rooted in christianity and god
To fully grasp Jung, I recommend studying Kant and the Gnostics. Both shaped Jung .
John Vervaerke has an encredible 50 segment lecture series on “The Meaning Crisis” that touches on this

Thank you ❤😊
Amazing content, thank you so much!
I do agree with the power that lies within the shadow. Fifth year into shadow work, and I have developed a sort of shadow persona, that's an amalgamation of all my trauma. Its so good to let the little rat out once in a while, especially when people ask for it😂 (I'm not violent, just a bratty lil twink)
How do you know if what youre believing is false or not? How do you find your way back?
Well done. Thank you : )
Thank you for your work bro
I just don’t like the reference to dark and light which means good and bad. It just is. To me I don’t like negative and positive, good and bad - judgement. They are all real and just are there, all mixed up together one reflects the other.
Simultaneously 'One and Different'
Darker as in hidden or unexpressed rather than negative
Observation is not judgment...eliminate self importance
The darkness is where everyone including you came from. There is no light in a mother's womb. Only darkness. The darkness is the "unrevealed". Darkness has been demonized by those attempting to oppress and control peoples minds.
Think SPECTRUM.
Even with such things as love, hate; ice cold, extreme heat, etc.. 🤔
Wow!!! How profound! And also what a treat for my eyes and ears! 🫶
If I fave my shadoe does it mean ill I get a cool ghost I can summon for battle?
My shadow likes Doritos.

You ever become who you really are, then turn back from your real self to your old self? Knowing that one day you may need the new self, you keep him on a shelf? I’m a combat vet…. I’m a father of 3 and a husband…. I’m not the guy I used to be, but he’s certainly in standby in the event he’s needed. I carry a pen because it’s mightier than the sword…. But I always carry a sword….. sometimes diplomacy fails, and when it does, I’m your huckleberry.
i am learning that my shadow needs to express himself and thats why i often feel imbalanced and anxious. What is my shadow telling me?
Carl Jung began to call his work Analytical Psychology so he could differentiate his work from Freud. Freud continued to call his form of psychology “Psychoanalysis”. In short, Jung was so dope he outshined Siggy & the neurotics!

My shadow is being average, normal, nothing special. I wasted countless opportunities in life due to lies , i lie to myself and others im more, better, that i am in fact. I would hide, change jobs , manipulate... Literally anything to face myself, my average performance, maybe a little below average... I nearly ruined my whole career, .. i almost lead myself to death not to reveal the scale of this catastrophy.
Thre.
Meet my shadow.
Avarage man.
It took me 30+ years to name it. Finally.
Im speechless. Really don't know what to do with it.
Wish me luck.
Be smarter then me. Bless you stranger.
Love you mate
I would have liked to have heard some practical advice for the intergration part though
Beautifully sums up Jungian theory 🙏
Thank YOU ❤
I dont think we are able to grasp our entire personality at once it's paradoxical. To be both creative and organized. To be logical and psychic, empathic and happy. Yes, They're gray areas between these. balanced finely... sure but I haven't found a solid middle point on the fence that isn't shifting one way or the other.
Like there are paradoxes between these two even. Areas between the poles uncharted. Like the coin flip paradox, using historical coin flip data to predict future flips does increase probability of correctly guessing above 50%. And that's logic and intuition or psychic skill combined. Can I change my bone structure from a 6'0 man to a 5'7 woman? Im not saying its impossible, Im saying the opposite. I Encourage discovery of the shadow. If quantum physics is a paradox to Newtons and with every piece of new knowledge attained, all previous knowledge is more moot today than yesterday... how long does it take to rewrite the universe where things seen impossible today become possible? What do we have to forget in order to learn something more fundamental and more true?
Thank you for the video..
I had two shadows. A father and a son I believe within. They were only trying to help me. I know that now.
It takes a lot of work to be a complete, well-rounded, disciplined, insightful, emotionally balanced, compassionate, spiritual person; countless hours, more intensive than any university course, a lifelong endeavour, I'm still working on it.
It's more of a journey that you can enjoy, rather end goal
Thank you for this powerful share
This is something trans people used to teach within indigenous cultures as berdache shamans and healers, and in the current time they embody that journey openly for all to see. So we could witness what it takes to embrace our shadow, because if it does not destroy the norms or beliefs, it is still a victim of the sociert afraid to come out. Our shadow hides our highest potential to rewire the nature of reality and bring great destruction to the world in order to re-build it from the ground up. Our shadow is a beast that is needed because it contains the fire necessary for the passion to lead one's life.
Man. this is tuff. how i do tap into this power?
