44. A Guided Shadow Work Session with Michaela Carlin

In Part 2 of The Psychdelic’s Mom’s exploration of The Shadow, Michaela Carlin offers a guided somatic journey into hidden aspects of ourselves to help illuminate and integrate them into our wholeness. Guiding us through a mesmerizing shadow work exercise, Michaela leads us to find a tranquil space, close our eyes, and attentively focus on bodily sensations so that we can begin to contact and connect to different dimensions of our shadow. By exploring uncomfortable sensations and emotions with open acceptance, compassion, and curiosity, we invite them to be felt without judgment. Throughout this exercise engaging in a dialog with our unconscious and subconscious, Michaela highlights the significance of embracing all parts of ourselves, including resistant protector parts. Delving into memories, images, and emotions that surface, we gain insight, while working with child parts nurtures the holistic healing of deep wounds.
