our shadow points us to our core wound
Our shadow points us to our core wound.
When we’re doing shadow work, we will pull up parts of our self that we don’t like. Parts that are uncomfortable to see.
Our shadow is the ego layer on top of a core wound.
Our shadow is just a shell.
Our shadow points us towards something deeper — usually a core wound or core narrative that has been playing out for our entire life.
In doing the work and chipping away at the shell, we reveal the truth of what is underneath.
And then under that truth?
Our soul essence.
