- 0:25do I want a window replaced I
- 0:28don't I think I need like another
- 0:31coffee because I was I I used to have
- 0:34this morning routine where I would wake
- 0:36up every single day at like 6:00 a.m.
- 0:38and I was rocking it granted like my eye
- 0:39bags at that time were atrocious but
- 0:41I've recently been waking up around like
- 0:42like I set the alarm for 6:30 and then I
- 0:44stay in bed until 7:00 and I'm so
- 0:45disappoint to myself but that's what's
- 0:47been happening cuz I've been socializing
- 0:49a lot and because of that I've been
- 0:50staying up very late so you know it's
- 0:51actually my friend's
- 0:55fault hi sisters welcome back everyone
- 0:58today we have another video that I am
- 1:00actually very very excited about if you
- 1:02know me in real life then I talk about
- 1:04this topic all the time if we talk about
- 1:07personal devolvement if we don't then
- 1:08you're not my real friend so so sorry
- 1:11welcome back though guys today we are
- 1:13going to be talking about Shadow work
- 1:16now a lot of people that have never
- 1:18heard of Shadow work before are going to
- 1:20be listening to the first quarter of
- 1:22this video thinking that this is some
- 1:23type of Witchcraft or like some demonic
- 1:25practice this is not this is basically
- 1:28in my opinion a version of personal
- 1:30therapy that does not involve having a
- 1:33real therapist now is this a replacement
- 1:34for real therapy no go get yourself a
- 1:36damn therapist because you are broken
- 1:39but no in my personal opinion Shadow
- 1:41work is basically just a way of healing
- 1:43and figuring out your deeper triggers
- 1:45patterns projections whatever and
- 1:47healing them from the inside out so that
- 1:50you can be happier so that you can live
- 1:53as your highest self and so that you can
- 1:55be more fulfilled in this time that we
- 1:58call living a Human Experience on the
- 2:01planet Earth so let's just start right
- 2:03away okay what is your Shadow Self cuz
- 2:06we're not going to step into Shadow work
- 2:08until we talk about the Shadow Self okay
- 2:10the mind is split up into three separate
- 2:12parts you have the ego you have your
- 2:14personal Consciousness I believe and
- 2:16then you have the collective
- 2:17Consciousness the ego is what we all
- 2:19know is basically Pride it's you being
- 2:21hurt and being a baby and acting out
- 2:23about it it is you being like how dare
- 2:25they do this to me and I'm the victim
- 2:26and I and then you have your personal
- 2:28Consciousness which is good day Day
- 2:30thoughts you blah blah blah and then you
- 2:31have the collective Consciousness which
- 2:33is human genetics and patterns and your
- 2:36fight ORF flight response basically
- 2:38things that we just have because we are
- 2:39human it's like a dog that likes to pee
- 2:42in a bush he does it because it makes
- 2:44him feel better because he's a dog I
- 2:45don't know honestly we got a full Topic
- 2:48in that zone of your mind you have the
- 2:51Shadow Self now the Shadow Self is
- 2:53basically the parts of yourself that you
- 2:55don't like it is the parts of yourself
- 2:56that you tend to repress it is the parts
- 2:59of yourself that are deemed unlikable
- 3:02and therefore are the shadow you have
- 3:04ever seen like Star Wars the Clone Wars
- 3:06there's that one scene with like Yoda
- 3:08and then he's fighting it's like shadowy
- 3:10version of Yoda think of that when you
- 3:11think of Shadow work and I'll put like a
- 3:13little photo up so that y'all are not
- 3:15nerds at like 12 years old like I was
- 3:17can understand the reference that I'm
- 3:19talking about basically it is the part
- 3:21of yourself that is unlikable and that's
- 3:23all that we're going to say for that in
- 3:24order to understand others in order to
- 3:27be charismatic in order to feel like you
- 3:30are connecting to others you have to
- 3:33understand yourself you have to because
- 3:36in Psychology if you one of those people
- 3:38that like watches all those online
- 3:39psychology videos which I absolutely
- 3:41recommend because I do too but then you
- 3:42do not apply any of those practices to
- 3:45you your real life your real friends
- 3:46your real partner your real family
- 3:48whatever you are going to have this fat
- 3:50disconnect and you're going to sit there
- 3:52and be
- 3:53like so I read this online that
- 3:55basically if you are on your phone it
- 3:57means that you don't like me so do you
- 3:59just hate me right now okay
- 4:03okay that is basically how you're going
- 4:05to feel the rest of your life internally
- 4:06and it's not fun cuz we've all been
- 4:08there and we don't want to be there
- 4:10anymore Shadow work in general is
- 4:12basically a practice that you can use to
- 4:14figure out your deepr rooted triggers
- 4:16patterns projections anything that you
- 4:19might deem as unlikable in yourself that
- 4:21maybe you want to change or maybe you
- 4:22just want to be aware of or maybe you
- 4:24want to accept and maybe you want to
- 4:25just figure out why like the depths of
- 4:27it all what is Shadow work basically
- 4:29shadow work is a very personal practice
- 4:32I would say it's different for everyone
- 4:35however there are certain ways to doing
- 4:37it that reap better results so I'm going
- 4:40to be teaching youall the best way that
- 4:42I have found and that Google has found
- 4:45to reap the most rewards in this
- 4:47practice that we call Shadow work so to
- 4:49just talk about the practice real quick
- 4:50without getting like too in depth about
- 4:52it basically whip out a journal has to
- 4:55be a journal if you are one of those
- 4:56people that writes it on your phone I
- 4:58will come and slap the crap out of you
- 5:00pick out a journal make it cute and
- 5:02aesthetic get a fancy little pen get a
- 5:04cute little pencil and you are basically
- 5:06going to title the page Shadow work and
- 5:08then you're going to date it and you're
- 5:09going to do whatever makes you feel so
- 5:11personable and so cute in your little
- 5:14journal and then you are basically going
- 5:15to find a prompt now I in the past have
- 5:18been known to do this in one of three
- 5:21ways number one is you go on Google and
- 5:23you search up oh my God I feel depressed
- 5:25give me a shadow work prompt for
- 5:26depression okay and then you kind of
- 5:28have all these trickling down prompts M
- 5:29and you're like which one kind of fits
- 5:31why I'm depressed and that is the last
- 5:33one that I would recommend out of these
- 5:34three so that's why I went first number
- 5:36two is kind of the one that I used to do
- 5:38a lot more that I think works and it's
- 5:41pretty nice and it's very personal to
- 5:42you you basically know why or what your
- 5:45trigger is I remember when I was I was
- 5:47in this like friend group and we were on
- 5:49this massive vacation and I just
- 5:52remember like I felt so cast it out and
- 5:54so alone and I was just like depressed
- 5:56in the corner I was like oh my God no
- 5:57one likes me and so I basically did
- 5:59shadow to work based on that and then
- 6:01the third one is my favorite and we are
- 6:03going to be using artificial
- 6:04intelligence but basically how this
- 6:06works is you are going to type into shat
- 6:09gbt I am feeling this way can you please
- 6:12ask me some questions to give me a
- 6:14shadow work prompt or multiple so that I
- 6:16can work on this so that I can heal so
- 6:18that I can be aware so that I can level
- 6:20up into my highest version of my highest
- 6:22self and then in your little Journal
- 6:24you'll write prompt and then you'll
- 6:25basically write out the sentence that it
- 6:27is asking you to work on and then you
- 6:29get into this meditative State you don't
- 6:31have to do this I like doing it but you
- 6:32don't have to I like to take like a
- 6:34couple deep breaths very grounding
- 6:36present myself in that moment and then
- 6:38basically you're going to just Journal
- 6:40about that prompt and you're going to be
- 6:42immersed in that journal you're not
- 6:43going to be checking your phone be like
- 6:44so what did Cindy post oh my God
- 6:47Cindy anyways back to why I'm depressed
- 6:50no you're not going to do that you're
- 6:51going to be present in the moment turn
- 6:52your damn phone on do not disturb okay
- 6:54jenzy talking to you and you're
- 6:56basically going to work on it Shadow
- 6:58work is of course a skill you're not
- 6:59going to be amazing at it and you're not
- 7:01going to feel like it is life-changing
- 7:02in the first couple times that you do it
- 7:04and that's why we're doing it is so that
- 7:05you can uncover those deep rooted
- 7:07conscious parts and you can get better
- 7:08at it yay for me personally I've noticed
- 7:11a lot of things that happen when I do
- 7:13Shadow work first off I cry almost every
- 7:16time I do Shadow work which is extremely
- 7:18uncanny for me because I maybe cry like
- 7:20once every other month and so it's like
- 7:23for me to just whip out a journal and
- 7:25write something down and be like not
- 7:27normal well okay I'm not going to say
- 7:29it's not
- 7:30not to me that just shows that it's very
- 7:33powerful you know what I mean that's
- 7:35what we're going to say about that in
- 7:36order to gain more confidence in order
- 7:38to understand others better you have to
- 7:40find the parts of yourself that are so
- 7:42deep that are so rooted that basically
- 7:44no one can even use them against you how
- 7:46many of y'all get triggered when someone
- 7:47like calls you out on your BS and you're
- 7:49like oh my God you're like how dare you
- 7:51see that about myself because I thought
- 7:54I was the only one and now like yall see
- 7:56it too and it just really triggers me in
- 7:58order to not be triggered and in order
- 7:59to not take everything as offensive you
- 8:01have to figure out why you feel that way
- 8:04you're not just this victim you're not
- 8:05just this crybaby and you're not broken
- 8:07because you actually have a reason why
- 8:10you are the way you are so that's why we
- 8:12do Shadow work is to figure that out
- 8:14okay okay I'm just going to read this
- 8:15because I wrote it in my notes and I
- 8:16really really liked how it sounded and
- 8:18then I'll go into what it actually means
- 8:20so in the entire world of Shadow work
- 8:23like the person who made it and
- 8:24everything they basically said the
- 8:25shadow was prone to psychological
- 8:27projection in which a perceiv personal
- 8:30inferiority is recognized as a personal
- 8:33moral deficiency in someone else now
- 8:35what does that mean basically what you
- 8:36find annoying about yourself you will
- 8:39project onto others and find annoying in
- 8:41them have you ever just been living your
- 8:44like best life and then you're just kind
- 8:45of like staring across the room at
- 8:46someone and you're just like pissed off
- 8:48at them you're like I really don't like
- 8:50you I really don't like you and then
- 8:52it's kind of like you kind of sit there
- 8:53and you're like okay but like why don't
- 8:54I like that and then you like come up
- 8:55with the most bizarre answer ever you're
- 8:57like well they're skin is a more fair
- 9:00tone and you know that pisses me off
- 9:02because that means that they're clearly
- 9:03not getting enough sunl and that you
- 9:05know they just don't like supporting the
- 9:09environment Yeah
- 9:11so basically they're doing something
- 9:14that reminds you of yourself and that is
- 9:16why you hate them if you notice that you
- 9:18hate random people for random reasons
- 9:20and you do not actually have a reason
- 9:21why it is because you are seeing
- 9:23something within yourself that basically
- 9:25triggers you and pisses you off and
- 9:27makes you not like the other person so
- 9:29we don't want to live life like that so
- 9:31let's start figuring out why so let's do
- 9:34our shadow work hey hey hey if you want
- 9:36to get the most out of Shadow work I
- 9:38would say do it whenever you are feeling
- 9:41the most triggered in your life for me
- 9:43personally I will have these periods
- 9:44well I'll be doing great and then all of
- 9:46a sudden something will happen and I
- 9:48will just be
- 9:49like so pissed off so Snappy so
- 9:52triggered and basically I'll kind of
- 9:53have to sit there and
- 9:55realize okay this isn't like normal and
- 9:59and I don't like feeling this way so why
- 10:01is it that what Julie said across the
- 10:03room is literally like making me want to
- 10:05like pull her hair out okay and then
- 10:07I'll basically think about it a little
- 10:08bit and I'll be like okay maybe it's cuz
- 10:10of that and then you sit down and you
- 10:11Journal about it for like 10 15 minutes
- 10:13and then you're like oh my God you're
- 10:15like so this actually relates back so
- 10:17when I was four and when my friend in my
- 10:20friend group basically said that I was
- 10:23not going to be it first and that I had
- 10:26to wait until I got tagged to be it and
- 10:29I didn't didn't want to look like this
- 10:31attention
- 10:32seeking person that would run in front
- 10:35of everyone to get tagged cuz I want to
- 10:37be it and I got rejected so thanks Julie
