How to Work With Your Shadow – with Connie Zweig

Shadow work requires us to confront the parts of ourselves we've hidden away – often since childhood – to gain approval and avoid rejection. Each of us develops shadow characters with specific thought patterns, feelings, and bodily sensations that emerge in our relationships.

By recognising these patterns, we can uncover the valid needs behind our seemingly negative behaviours and heal the vulnerable feelings of unworthiness that drive them.

Connie Zweig, PhD is a retired Jungian therapist and author of Meeting the Shadow (a new edition is now available) and Romancing the Shadow (a new edition is also now available).

Her award-winning book, The Inner Work of Age: Shifting from Role to Soul, extends shadow-work into midlife and beyond and explores aging as a spiritual practice.

Her book, Meeting the Shadow on the Spiritual Path: The Dance of Darkness and Light in Our Search for Awakening, extends shadow-work into religion and spirituality.
