Shadow Work and Looping

  • In this video, I'll be talking about the topic of Shadow Work and phenomenon that I call Looping.
    Looping is the phenomenon where Shadow Aspects bring you through the same patterns again and again. This topic is very important to know about for the sake of integration.
    Carl Jung said, "Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate."
    This episode of The Diamond Net explains why that statement is true.

    As you were explaining this, I recalled hearing someone say that, if you have an earworm (a song that keeps running through your mind that you can't seem to stop hearing) sometimes you can make it stop by listening to the song from start to finish. It's like your brain can't get rid of the piece of the song until it can have its resolution and completion - sort of like allowing it its peace so it can stop.

    thank you for making these videos. like a lot of people, I was carrying around emotional baggage, tried therapy, that did not work, yet I read Jung and that worked better than years of therapy.
    Here is one example of how reading Jung helped me. (something a long the lines of integrating the shadow). I started to take a "serious look" at parts of my personality, even the parts I did not like. I accepted, that these parts, may just be part of who I am, and must accept it. Before, I would be been scared to admit, even to myself that I might be lazy or lacked ambition. However, by accepting even the "negative sides" of my personality, things got better. I day dreamed less and was able to let go of unrealistic goals.
    Reading Jung is more than just good food for thought, it can save people from therapy that goes nowhere.

    Wow, I’ve been watching your videos for about 2 years off and on through my own self exploration and “journey”
    I have to say, you are incredibly articulate with your words and intention. I am currently going through my own self exploration and also studying to hopefully one day become a psychedelic integration coach. It is clear you have done a lot of internal work on yourself, otherwise you wouldn’t be able to articulate as well. I found that once I started REALLY loving myself, my words came out so much easier and I was able to communicate on a different level. Thank you for your openness and compassion to help others find their true selves. Looking forward to the 2 hour shadow work class!

    This describes me and my whole life. I don't even know how to uncover who I am because it's like I am entirely in shadow or something. It's very odd. With kids now, it's become super important that I understand these things. It's really difficult like all my behaviour is simply the shadow. so much so that I think I need to live alone in the woods. Being validated is a huge thing for me. I keep failing to progress in becoming better myself, because I don't get any validation from others. I don't know how else to measure whether I am a good person and doing the right thing.

    The validation is exactly my loop. I've known this for a while and I have told myself that my ideas, input and efforts are extremely valid, but I still feel unheard at times or like I'm seeking validation... like in my head waiting to hear acknowlegement for, say, creating a delicious tasting meal and dying to hear the person TELL ME that it's delicious and feeling disappointed if they don't. How can I stop that?

It didint happen a normal beauty girls just beatiful girls. The question I asked myself but couldn't find the answer to is this: Is it because of a relationship I had in the past or is it just a desire to be accepted by a beautiful woman? Cuz its too weird while I don't need affection in a normal woman, but when I met beatiful woman suddenly that appears

    dear Emerald re: the term or concept of 'looping' is that something you created/invented or is it a known aspect of Jungian psychology? ... and further is 'looping' in any way associated with 'reincarnation' or genetic ancestral memory?
    also would it be possible for you to be not so animated using your hands to assist in what you are saying?
    (I do ponder if you have Italian genes in your ancestral jeans?)
    the mind is the hand and the hand is the mind ... thus this brings us back to how 'looping' is something human fruit loops do who are stuck in perpetual recursive fractal patterns that in fact DO help define humanity and the evolution of what consciousness is ...
    science supports that our "chiral hands are the asymmetrical mind and the chiral mind is the asymmetrical hands"

    But if shadows are unconscious how they can see better than us childhood patterns and put us in same scenarios?

    • @TheDiamondNet
      @TheDiamondNet  2 роки тому +7

      Great question! Shadow Aspects are unconscious from the standpoint of the conscious personality. But they have their own perspective, agendas, wisdom, memories, and strengths. And they're very much part of us. So, if an aspect was repressed at age 5, that aspect will try to lead you to what they need... but using the strategies you would have used at age 5.
      So, they will often intuitively pick up on external patterns that match the internal patterns and try to steer the conscious personality into them. But it's usually more emotional than it is logical and intellectual. It's not to say that they are calculated. They do these things the way a 4 year old might intuitively throw a tantrum to try to get a sense of power.

    This is pretty crazy, because I was actually discussing this phenomena yesterday with the Internal Family Systems subreddit, and now here you are with this video!
    But speaking of Internal Family Systems, or IFS, do you know of it? There's a lot of similarities between this particular school of thought and Jungian psychology. I actually wanted to get your opinion on it.

    • @TheDiamondNet
      @TheDiamondNet  2 роки тому +1

      Yes, IFS and Jung’s idea of the Shadow are quite similar. I haven’t read extensively into IFS but from what I know of it, it seems to address more user-friendly notions of how to work with the Shadow. Basically viewing yourself as the needs manager for many different parts.

    • @childofgod5153
      @childofgod5153 2 роки тому

      @@TheDiamondNet Yes, that's exactly right! And according to Richard Schwartz school of thought, that 3 year old girl you spoke of was most likely an Exile. But if that's the case, there most likely was a Protector part for that Exile, either a Manager protector or a Firefighter protector, or both. Idk if you know what those are or not, but since you looked into IFS before, I'm just gonna assume you know what those are, lol. So, I guess what I'm leading up to is, if that was indeed an Exile part, did you come into contact of its Protectors? And if so, what were they, and if not, do you think Schwartz was wrong about this idea?
      In one of your videos you mentioned the notion of protector aspects, is Richard Schwartz idea of Protectors what you were talking about? Or were you thinking of something different?
      I guess what I'm trying to do is merge the two schools of thought together. Schwartz methodology is more simplistic when it comes to the unconscious compared to Jung (as you said, it's a more user-friendly approach), but both Schwartz and Jung may be completely right about it all, or one may be off and the other not. It's just hard to know who I should believe, so I go for both, lol.
