Morning, crew! We've been talking lots on shadow work the past six months. I've seen a lot of questions pop up in the comments around it. This vid will go over the 5 biggest mistakes with shadow work. I have made all these too. Some of these can even make shadow work turn against you if you're not careful! Get the 7 Shadow Work Questions to change your life (free gift for yt subs): www.clarkkegley.com/shadow-work
When you shine the light of awareness on a shadow it ceases to be a shadow just like shining a flashlight on a physical shadow will cause it to disappear but it doesn’t go anywhere but rather becomes integrated into the light. Shadow Integration Work need not be more complicated than that. In the end the subconscious shadows can become your greatest teachers. Then you can reintegrate those soul parts fragmented through traumas or negative programming, Thank you Clark.
I love that you mentioned self compassion! It is so key! Cuz if you think about it too, if you are doing all the work so you don’t beat yourself up and feel you deserve to feel good than your probably likely too judge other peoples flaws too. Self compassion has been pivotal to my life🖤
SO many useful points here that I needed to hear. You’ve totally altered the way I look at my practice of self-exploration and growth. Whew. Thanks Clark.
Clever clever clever! And so true. Thanks for calling us out on things we can really recognise and learn from. And on the excuses that wont help us. Thank you for your honesty and clarity.
Haaaahaaaahaaá!!! Sooo true!!!! I got sooo ill after doom-analysing shadow work!!!!! Hospitalized and literally almost died!!! 🦋Thank you so much for your support and guidance 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 and thank you for speaking from the heart and being so brave to show up and make videos 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 from Belgium, Europe
Ur videos r so uplifting and inspiring I love the way u present thoughts to ponder from such a solid place really enjoy ur channel thanks so much for sharing
@somerandomguy001 he's talking about reincarnation its a religious teaching famously in Hinduism and other beliefs and religions. I personally don't believe your reincarnated so this concept depends on your views and beliefs/religion.
@@princess_zulica you're telling me that a concept like "past life" is straight forward? And ya I am hindu, but reincarnation is definitely not something I've ever been taught
Shadow Work is, for the most part, useless unless you are with someone trained to help you deal with those emotions. Cause then you are stuck either stuck with painful memories and emotions that will lead you to a downward spiral, or emotions you don't know what to do with so you move on without any actual healing.
@@leghtim1 self awareness only goes no far. A lot of times, what you discover in shadow work, is really only the tip of the iceberg. If you don’t have access to a therapist, then it’s better than nothing. But you are doing yourself a disservice if you don’t look for the additional help and guidance needed to find the roots of the issues.
I agree with you, but I wouldn't call it useless, you could discourage a lot of guys from trying this, and it, as you've said, is better than nothing! Thank you for your reply and cheers!!@@Tharsos2099
Recently found you and I like your take on things. It is not "revolutionary" but ..............practical? It is like Mark Manson. He is not saying anything new per se but has a take from the perspective of the skeptic or the person who is tired of platitudes. I have a LOT of catching up to do with your videos but I like your tone so far.
Clark Kegley I know this has nothing to do with this latest video but loads of people are backing you on the video you made about getting your SP to text or call you and using the 5 step method technique where you are sitting on the golf course, I will say some people commented saying you took it down because it didn’t work now for myself and loads of others it worked a treat each and every time and they too are pissed because it’s no longer up. Can you please put the video back up. Cheers
How are you doing today getting nice to see you here I’m I love the video I’m single looking for serious relationship I’m be single for over a good 6 years I don’t see serious relationship I’m looking for relationship
How are you doing today getting nice to see you here I’m I love the video I’m single looking for serious relationship I’m be single for over a good 6 years I don’t see serious relationship I’m looking for relationship if you don’t made I will talk here
my problem is that i want to talk more. but i cant. get called out for and then feel bad about the fact that i cant. to change how i feel would mean i talk more. but i self sabotage myself from talking. now i can do sessions talking. but that doesnt work because then i make a connection with a person, that is different from another person. now. and there doesnt seem to be a source where i can find how to tackle obsticles. with shadow work i only ever find how to understand what you have. not actually tackeling anything in a usuable case. now talking to others is not changing it. i tried. now i think i need to just practice with the people i want to talk to. but hOw do you start with a build up plan
All great tips, and good reminders as I get back into some deep work after a needed break. Because I deal with it constantly and it's endlessly frustrating I must say: number one is practically every woke person I ever encounter on the West Coast. Everything is neurodivergent, I'm this label and that label and this label, usually as an excuse to never have to deal with people that disagree or uncomfortable emotions or to like, have to do work 🤣. It's both sad and amusing
I need help, so I have been in depression quite for a year and even though I am trying to live like a normal person it not easy sometimes, so the thing is that I start living and behaving like I don't exist; like a soulless person, but I must live so I start searching meditation, psychology and shadow work. My shadow work is that I keep thinking about those moments and I don't want to cry anymore whenever it comes into my mind about how my family neglect me or my only friends and roommate calling me dumb, stupid and out of my mind whenever I in that stage. How can I leave this behind, whatever I try to do shadow work on this, I just stuck in me and myself of why am I like this? I am trying to do my best and it's not like I want to die on purpose but why they keep blaming me? please give me some advice.

Woah, the last point about deserving life… goose bumps 👌🏽👌🏽
We appreciate your insights. We admire how you articulate your thoughts and opinions.
Ur videos r so uplifting and inspiring I love the way u present thoughts to ponder from such a solid place really enjoy ur channel thanks so much for sharing
This was really needed. Thank you so much
I now imagine shadow work in my room of groovy shadows in my mind. Keeps it more high vibe
Hello georgous! Thank you for being you Clark ❤❤❤❤
YOU HAVE NAILED IT!!!!!!!!
Sup Clark, just thought I would share some love and appreciation. Stay cool bro, I’ve always enjoyed your videos, thanks my man.
It's always good to see your videos down here in Africa Zimbabwe
Hey! Thank you for the video, I’d love Journal prompts for shadow work more often. Have a great day.
It comes from past lives too, not just childhood
That sounds very interesting
How does that work?

@@princess_zulica bro I'm hindu 💀
@@somerandomguy001 what were u confused ab then it was pretty straightforward. u should know better than me ab past lives and reincarnation.

I don’t agree, it has helped me tremendously, without someone trained, you just have to be self aware and maybe you are not.

Can you please make a guided meditation video for shadow work please 🙏🙏

Almost half way through this, and I am very new to the term shadow work. I was hoping for how to do this, not where to focus on the how-to's.
Clark is underrated 😢
I feel attacked. 😂 That first one stung a little. Probably rooted in my daddy issues. 🤔😉
Great content, thank you.

I'm doing shadow work and felt physical pain and sickness is this normal?

But why my I should even let go?
I guess I have a lot to work on myself.
