For the past few weeks, I've been feeling low energy and a bit depressed, and tried to ignore how I feel / distract myself with productivity. But as we all know, this usually does not solve the issue, so I finally decided to spend the day exploring my feelings and trying to understand where they came from after starting the Artist's Way by Julia Cameron. Otherwise known as shadow work, this practice allows you to observe and learn from whatever childhood wounds you may be carrying in order to heal from them. This ended up being super transformative for me, so hopefully this helps you if you're wondering how to do shadow work or are looking for some shadow work prompts to help you on your healing journey!

Have you tried shadow work? If so what has your experience been like? Love learning from y'all💕
I’ve never done it before. You actually inspire me to try it for myself. I really needed to see this.
I appreciate how vulnerable you are being on camera and you deserve all the success coming your way. You are a star and you inspire people like me to be stars just shining in your own light.
Thank you for all that you do. You are brilliant. 💖✨
Yes I’ve been doing it for two years now and it’s made so much come clear for me. I understand myself a lot better and it’s helped me to become an observer about my beliefs, emotions, and behaviors. I am so thankful I started. The whole reason I started was because of the program Awaken Her Soul by Madison Moorigan. Her program changed my life! Did it during quarantine and it’s the best thing I did for myself in my life so far. I have been so thankful to find myself again by going inward. I can relate to you so much that coming back to your inner knowing and source is so beautiful and comforting. Thanks for sharing! ❤️❤️❤️
My latest shadow work and new moon release was pretty deep. I was feeling off and rather than ignoring it, I kinda followed the cookie crumbs of negative thought after negative thought. It was funny how my brain really didn't want to admit things, as if I really didn't want to tell myself the truth because when I finally got to the truth, it hurt so bad to admit.
The activity I did specifically was if I had a triggering thought, I would write down the thought that I had, what was going on when I had it, and why I thought I had the triggering though (right or wrong answer, I just needed something to track). I would go back to the journal page and use these like clues (the "cookie crumbs"). It took a few weeks to get to the end where I was able to put enough pieces together to work with the problem, but it was worth the effort.
@@chillwithCourt Wow! You are so brave to do that! Its powerful when we understand our triggers and can help ourselves by changing the narrative. I have done this myself as well and I found it super hard but helpful also all at the same time. :)
shadow work has honestly changed my life for the better! i wish everyone gave it a try because it has brought me so much healing and clarity
If you read this, know that you are worthy of being successful, worthy of being loved and worthy of going after your dreams! ❤️
Sending you so much love and strength!

Thank you beautiful you as well !
LYNETTE! I just came to the part where you said you feel that people will find you fake and will eventually stop watching your content! I want a word with you! YOU ARE THE ONE OF THE REALEST CREATOR ON THE PLATFORM RIGHT NOW! Hope you heal and believe the love around you! Always here if you want to talk ! ❤️❤️❤️
AWWW thank you so much Rutvik you;re the best🥺❤️❤️❤️
I 1000% agree with that !!!
Just discovered her now. I love her realness and she does not act like she has her shit together. Its like she going through this journey of manifesting and changing my life with me. She is an old soul. Calm, vulnerable and smart. And for that I am new subbie.
You're dropping real gems for the people. Powerful stuff. Keep pushing, you got this!
Wow thank you! Love your content so this means a lot 🙏🏽

I’ve been needing to watch a video like this. Thank you for your honesty. This will help me find the root cause of my negative beliefs. I want to get to a point in my life where I feel free from the constant negative thoughts/feelings that surface when I try to live my purpose.
I'm so glad this found you at the right time! We all need this in our lives❤️ wishing you the best!
I am so sorry to read that you are facing recurring negative thoughts... I can really relate to that. I have studied medicine for several years and felt really out of place in medical school. I felt really lost and thought that making a living from a passion was working out just for others. I felt so stuck that I did not know where to start.
I embarked on the journey to overcome my fears, limiting beliefs and internal conflicts in regards of giving myself a chance to do what I really love.
Today I am going all-in and creating my own business as a coach and I am happier than ever!
I really wish you all the best on your journey and know that you are not alone!
If you ever want to have a chat about this topic let me know! I love connecting with inspiring women 🌞
There is a really great meditation on UA-cam called Shadow Work & inner healing // Guided Meditation by Aaron Abke really recommend it, it was a great experience!
Checking this out, thank you for the suggestion!
@@LynetteAdkins You are so welcome! 🌞 You are such an inspiration, you have such an authentic and comforting energy. Also I love that you are thinking about eventually offer 1:1 coaching, I believe that it could be very transformative to work with you.
I'm gonna look this up as soon as I am done watching this video.❤
I love the authenticity and vulnerability you bring here. It is very much needed in this stressful social media. Your videos remind me to be intentional and present about my actions, online and offline.
This video is just what I needed. Needed inspiration to start shadow work! I even bought a separate journal took keep the energies different. How you read my mind Lynette!! 🤯🤯
Omg we are on the same wavelength!😂❤️
Same
Thank u sm for this video❣
I’m in therapy right now and my therapist does shadow work with me, I literally LOVE therapy sessions 😍 also your videos are amazing. Keep posting 👏🏼🦋✨🧿
I got this book 'The Artist's Way', about 20 years ago. It's a course and the author Judith Cameron, ex-wife of the great film director, Martin Scorsese, is totally original and a great writer. I enjoyed doing 'the Morning pages', which is another way of meditating.
This video was everything for me. I totally could relate to the upbringing portion about being mixed and facing racism/bullying as a child and that translating into feeling the need to prove yourself, which then domino effects into how we show up in our adult life through content creating. I haven't made this direct connection through my shadow work so that you for sharing your work vulnerably with us. Shadow work can be so exhausting but it's so worth it when you take the time to slowly work away at it. I recently found your channel and I love what you share, thank you Lynette
Literally started the artists way two weeks ago and the morning pages are helping so much!! Creativity is backkkk 😩😍 love this for you!!!!!
Can we all agree that Lynette helps us all feel less lonely????
LOVE LOVE her raw realness
and if you’re like me don’t think always have to plan out an entire day or a few hours to do shadow work. sometimes it’s just taking one negative thought or feeling that you tend to have and sit with yourself in that moment and break it down and ask yourself why you feel this way and where those feelings came from. you’ll be surprised how deep you can go at a random unplanned time. and ALWAYS do it with love and understanding. think of yourself as your own therapist that you would want to be vulnerable and comfortable with. blessings 🙏🏽🤍
*If you don't sacrifice for your dream, your dream will become the ultimate sacrifice.*
If you saw this comment, *I hope you have a great day...* 🖤
i NEEDED this
yooo thank you, i'm putting this in my commonplace journal
@@SIRKISSHY commonplace journals are awesome!
it's so completely adorable that you go "happy new moon!" like, it's so freaking cute that you know and care about this - we all should do that more. and you can absolutely continue to be vulnerable with us online, it's courageous and inspiring!
AHH Lynette, I literally love your content so much! It's so transparent and real and I can relate so much to what you talk about. Thank you for being so open about your emotions and just your journey in general!
yess i love how open and honest you are through your process! be proud of yourself for being so vulnerable and helping others this is so real 🙌🏾
I’m sooo glad I ran across your page. The energy shift from the beginning to the end of video is beautiful and shows the authenticity of the inner work you are doing! I’m so excited to see you blossom! Keep up the amazing work!
very authentic video, 💚💚 i think these types of vids r so rare to find. imo. even tho masses dont usually prefer them..
rly calming.. 😌💚
that’s so crazy because me and my friend was literally talking about doing shadow work together last night and I love that you just made this video thank you
I appreciate the transparency and useful information!
Thank you!
Thank you for sharing your experience. I think we are so similar. In each job I have had for the past 10 years, I am so productive so consistently that I always burn out. My partner asked me why I work that way. But I had to dig deep and realized it stemmed from childhood events of not feeling wanted or valued. I always felt like I had to prove myself so hard- extreme imposter syndrome.
You're so enlightened, grounded, and thoughtful. I love your work, sharing thoughts that change the way we think and live - never stop! You're changing lives
I have reserved The Artist's Way from the library and am going to pick it up today. This video made me so excited to read it and do some inner work! I love your channel and the emphasis you place on spirituality and working on yourself and dealing with past pain. Thank you!🙏
Thank you for being vulnerable! Your content is definitely helping me!
Lynette!! you are one of my comfort influencers who i love to just watch or even just listen to!! I appreciate all of your amazing content that u put out and ur one of realest fr
Your videos is the best example of perfect timing! You explain exactly what I’m feeling and all of your content is so authentic. Never stop please. There’s not many like you
you are the biggest inspiration and its so nice to watch the rawness of your videos. its a very comforting feeling watching you.
I literally love u I just notice u & I have most of the same fears .I am also twice your age & u just opened my brain up & healed it ..never stop helping people heal..
you are helping me just by opening up and talking about how you feel. that alone can be terrifying, especially when youre sharing yourself with the world. thank you for this. i'm not someone who feels comfortable talking to people about anything thats seriously afflicting me, but i still need people to go to for answers sometimes, and you, as well as others who make similar content, help me SO much. thank you.
I felt so understood when you said u constantly have to prove something to be loved/accepted especially online…thank you💖
I know for a fact your content will never fall off. you were made for this path and this journey that you are on🦋
I am so glad that I found your blog because every other creator who talks about manifestation and affirmations kind of go about it in a snobbish kind away. You go about it from your perspective and your journey you’ve gone through to reach ur higher self. The people who find you “fake” maybe they’re the ones that really need to do the shadow work and really figure out why they think that. Can you put it out there I really appreciate your content. It’s helping me tremendously and I have just started. Thank you so much.
We honestly enjoy just you, regardless of what you post. It’s a love thing
I love your content, watching your videos when I dont feel productive or motivated really help! You hit many topics that are very relevant to my life and I appreciate this channel so much! ❤️🔥
"This video is so helpful Lynette...I will be getting this book as well thanku. The 5year breakdown is just so transformational in itself, you are inspirational and I appreciate you love thanku."🙏🏾
I just bought “the artist’s way” recently so this video came right on time. 💜
Hey Lynette, your videos have come to me at the perfect time. I have been struggling with low self esteem and negative self talk for over a year now and I’ve been needing to do the work. I haven’t been able to bring myself to do it until now. I’m not happy with who I am right now so just want to say thank you for giving me the push to do the work, heal and become a better person! Sending u light and blessings , we will never get tired of your content ❤
This is wonderful work. I’ve just found you after looking at shadow work. I’m doing a lot of work at the moment and being in a grey area a lot rather than a more secure black and white. I’m accepting that others have their journey as well and I’m trying not to judge others who project onto me. It’s exhausting but I’m so happy to find your channel -you’re doing great work. Thank you 🙏🏼
Thank you for being so vulnerable and open with us. This is what i needed today. Thank you 😢💙
Lynette, I NEEDED this. So relatable. Thank you Thank you!!! Being a creator every single one of your doubts are what have been blocking me recently. I'm so glad I came across this!
Watching this really broke me down because I relate so much.
You are a gem and a light that has been sent to me at the right time.❤
your content is amazing and it is only getting better queen! found your channel about 2 weeks ago and you've helped me so much into getting into alignment with my higher self. THANK YOU. all the way from Brownsville, tx next to the border of Mexico :)
Lynette, thanks for always being so transparent and honest... I'm not familiar with this book... so I'm def going to check it out.... A big "AHA" moment for me in shadow work came after hearing a profound insight by Dr. Bruce Lipton... He stated that, "95% of our life comes from the subconscious programming we received in the first seven years for life." He also went on to say that, "our life is a print out of this programming." The game changer in my shadow work came after understanding this idea of subconscious programming (The shadow operating system)... Meditation has been my primary tool in shadow work because meditation develops this skill of present moment awareness... which allows you to see these negative thoughts in real time and not place so much importance on them... It's like seeing your thoughts as a spoiled child wanting attention... put them in time out by not focusing on them and "do you." The more you do this the less these shadow thoughts have control over what you do and how you feel. Your channel is changing lives, so don't give up. Hope this helps.
I’ve always wanted to meditate but I genuinely find it so hard, is there something you’d recommend or how you began?
I've heard so much about the Artist's Way from other YT'ers but its always about morning pages, this is the first video I've seen where it talks about other stuff like shadow work and you did it ... you finally got me to purchase the dang thing and read it lol. I feel a lot of those same feels about content creation like feeling if I'm not on my game 100% of the time people will figure out I'm a fraud or feeling like I'm creatively stuck ...
It's so nice seeing you doing so well!
Thank you for talking about shadow work … it’s so important !!
I been watching your videos and I just want to say that you are absolutely helping people. thank you so much for your content. :)
Love love love watching your videos sis!💖 I can always come to your channel and get inspiration & encouragement. Thanks for the Gems 💎!!
Lynette! loveee this video, I resonate soo much with the blockages in content creation and within myself. I ordered this book after we talked about it, still waiting for it to arrive, but I can't wait to dive in. Shadow work had been something I keep getting called to but haven't focused on or had real clarity with, but you explained it so well. I think this is the next step to take! sending you LOVE
I'm so glad this resonated! Our conversation really helped me realize I needed to go inward some more to realize these things so can't wait to talk to you about your experiences with the book!!
I love the activity that you mentioned, I think I will give it a try. You’re probably the only person I really resonate with on UA-cam and I just want to give you a big ol hug and let you know that you are not alone. Your content helps alot of people, Thank you again for being so open a and honest.
Thank you for being open and vulnerable. Much love. ♥️♥️♥️
thank you for inspiring me so much! I feel so much of what you say in these videos! So glad I found you. Keep going girl, you are amazing ✨
yeah ! you're literally helping you're amazing thank you so much
Your videos immediately resonated with me. Please keep up your great work. It's really helpful.
algorithm must know me really well because it pushed you to me and I’m so happy it did! Feeling so connected to your path and your content ♥️
Your energy radiates. Thank you so much for sharing your content!
this video brought me so much comfort! much love
loveeedddddd this Lynette and love love loved the LA Times Article on you! Keep going sis you transparency and willingness to share is AHHHHH-MAZZZING!!!
This helped motivate me so much!! I’m right where you are in this video, hearing some things from a different perspective was so refreshing, thank you!!!! Can’t wait to see more from you✨🌙
Thank you super excited to go along with you on this new journey!! Blessings on top of blessings beautiful queen!! 🤩😍🤩😍🤩😍🤩😍
I needed this! Thank you for sharing 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Hi Lynette, it’s my first time visiting your UA-cam channel and I want to start off by saying THANK YOU, for being you! I sensed that you were being honest and transparent too. The people who are meant to be touched/moved etc by your content will experience just that! It was a bit much to unpack in this video for ME, and so I’ll probably watch it once more lol, but thank you again for sharing! I’m looking forward to doing my own “shadow work.” ♥️
Another comment!! Just, thank you! Your book recommendation I feel will be perfect and this gives me inspiration of where I could go with questions I've recently had. Once again thank you ❤️
I don’t comment on your vids a lot but girl you are one of my faves! I know you’re full y able to reassure yourself but I know it never hurts to read it from your viewers. You’re relatable as hell, you’re authentic and that’s why I fw your content. I could def see myself clicking with you, not a lot of people seem to have depth these days and aren’t able to be to vulnerable about it, out loud. Keep going girl we ain’t going nowhere!
So glad I stumbled upon this channel. The content really resonates with me. Thank you!
I'm so happy for and proud of you sis, keep up your beautiful work over there! 💯💜
I'm seriously going to devour your videos! Absolutely love it!!! And I love you. ❤️ Give yourself a huge hug for me!! Thank you ❤️
i'm about to start week 10 of the artist's way! just reading back my 9 weeks of journalling as i watch this 🥲!
This is EXACTLY what I needed right now! I’ve been putting it off for soooo long, I think it’s time 💛 I myself feel like I’ve been feeling this blockage as a content creator and this couldn’t have come at a better time
We appreciate and love you lynette!
I bought the artist way and ive never been able to stay consistent with it. I really be in the way of my own betterment. The morning pages really helped me also
I loved this so much and deeply related
I-... Wow. I don't have the words to describe how I feel rn but I really needed this video. You share some extremely essential tools, thank you, a million times. 🙏
When I watch your videos I feel like Im hearing and watching myself. Makes alot of sense because we are both Aries lol. Thank you for much such amazing content. Your light is needed in a world of creators that puts up a facade.
I realize a collective wound and not feeling like we are enough or not worthy. A affirmations I love is I am worthy and deserving of all the good things I want in my life. And another when I feel I feed into these limiting things I lovingly and peacefully call my power back to me . We are entitled to amazing lives god have us these gifts so it wants us to use them!!
Also another thing Lynette u are one of my favorite influencers and the deeper you go within yourself the more I love u Man!!U are truly an inspiration and ur content is amazing ! U are love and so goddamn lovable!!!!!!
Thank you for the transparency!
Omg I CANNOT wait for you tu post the behind the scences video because I want to do exactly the same and start my online business with building a UA-cam community on my spirituality channel and then make courses and coach people! Also you are so loved Lynette and you show me that my dream is possible, thank you so much🙏🏻
love the content
6:25 that's exactly how I felt and it causes me to question a lot of my video ideas at times. Great video!
So glad this resonated!!
this topic and work really resonates with me. ty for sharing. i'm interested in checking out that book now
Please consider getting a complete physical and blood work for your exhaustion
Breaking down my life into 5 year segments 🎯 thank you 🙏 you are appreciated 🌹🦅🌹
can you make videos again talking about basically the behind the scenes of an influencer ? :( specifically how you work with brands and get paid n not gifted, how you are doing now to make it a full time job, etc ?
I def will keep making these every few weeks! Here's my latest one in case you haven't seen it :) ua-cam.com/video/3AMnxVk5ib8/v-deo.html
I watched your content and liked it but this is the first time I’m connecting with you as a person!
your negative thoughts couldn't be further from the truth! You've helped me through so much long-term and there's no such thing as peaking, this is just the beginning of your beautiful abundant journey
Thank you for sharing queen !! You are truly on a beautiful journey ! Thanks for showing up and shinning your light !!! 🦋🦋🦋🔥😘😍😘😘🥰
Such an amazing video. I watched it till the end and made me feel very good
Wow this was so personal, I related to this so so so much. Thank you
That course is gonna be fire!!😤
Thanks for the recommendation for the book. Shadow Work is something that I’ve been meaning to get into.
This is exactly the video I needed today.
Yo the way this video went out at the right time... divine timing never fails❤️
❤️❤️❤️
shadow work is important. something that helped me out was wim hoff breathing as well(which i have to get back to)
Shadow work has to be one of the hardest things I've done in my life , and I'm jsut starting out . Thanks for making this vid , love from South AFrica
Feeling like you need to be productive all the time in order to be worthy... that is so huge and so common! I totally relate to that and it's so crazy what comes up when you actually look under the surface. It's like, wait what?? That's why I do that every dang day?? 🤯
Thank you so much for all of your beautiful videos💓
Whenever you are making a video that you put out to the world and you put your whole self into it, you are gods messenger to all of us that watch, content creators can very easily underestimate their presence on their viewers, i see most of my favourite UA-camrs as best friends and they don’t even know me you know but they make such a big difference just by posting a video and doing what they love and what they feel is right , the right people will find you and hear what you have to say so long as you keep putting it out :)
