Knowing Your Shadow: Becoming Intimate with All That You Are

Why are the people around me so difficult? Why do I keep getting in situations like this? Our shadow side, teaches Robert Augustus Masters, contains the emotions and desires we've disowned, neglected, or hidden from ourselves. If not skillfully worked with, it can easily direct our lives on every level.

With "Knowing Your Shadow," this acclaimed psychotherapist and author shows us how to illuminate and wisely engage with the endarkened aspects of who we are. Join him to explore in depth the areas where shadow work can most benefit us, including: Discovering and cultivating intimacy with the endarkened aspects of yourselfIdentifying and healing your core woundsWorking effectively with anger, fear, shame, guilt, and other difficult emotionsUnderstanding how your shadow influences those around you, often beyond conscious awarenessGuided practices, meditations, and exercises for developing more authenticity and wholeness in your personal and workplace relationships, your sexuality, and your spiritual path
