The Dark Side

We all have a part of ourselves that we don’t like, a part that we try to hide from society for fear of not being accepted, a part that we reject in ourselves. We see our shadow side in others, but it’s harder to see the dark side of our own heart. Jung called this the “shadow side.” When we discover the dark side in ourselves, our mind tries to hide it in the darkest corners of our subconscious, as if it doesn’t exist. To come face to face with our shadow is to let more light in, and now more than ever the world needs this “journey to self.”
