  9. 0:31coffee because I was I I used to have
  10. 0:34this morning routine where I would wake
  11. 0:36up every single day at like 6:00 a.m.
  12. 0:38and I was rocking it granted like my eye
  13. 0:39bags at that time were atrocious but
  14. 0:41I've recently been waking up around like
  15. 0:42like I set the alarm for 6:30 and then I
  16. 0:44stay in bed until 7:00 and I'm so
  17. 0:45disappoint to myself but that's what's
  18. 0:47been happening cuz I've been socializing
  19. 0:49a lot and because of that I've been
  20. 0:50staying up very late so you know it's
  21. 0:51actually my friend's
  22. 0:55fault hi sisters welcome back everyone
  23. 0:58today we have another video that I am
  24. 1:00actually very very excited about if you
  25. 1:02know me in real life then I talk about
  26. 1:04this topic all the time if we talk about
  27. 1:07personal devolvement if we don't then
  28. 1:08you're not my real friend so so sorry
  29. 1:11welcome back though guys today we are
  30. 1:13going to be talking about Shadow work
  31. 1:16now a lot of people that have never
  32. 1:18heard of Shadow work before are going to
  33. 1:20be listening to the first quarter of
  34. 1:22this video thinking that this is some
  35. 1:23type of Witchcraft or like some demonic
  36. 1:25practice this is not this is basically
  37. 1:28in my opinion a version of personal
  38. 1:30therapy that does not involve having a
  39. 1:33real therapist now is this a replacement
  40. 1:34for real therapy no go get yourself a
  41. 1:36damn therapist because you are broken
  42. 1:39but no in my personal opinion Shadow
  43. 1:41work is basically just a way of healing
  44. 1:43and figuring out your deeper triggers
  45. 1:45patterns projections whatever and
  46. 1:47healing them from the inside out so that
  47. 1:50you can be happier so that you can live
  48. 1:53as your highest self and so that you can
  49. 1:55be more fulfilled in this time that we
  50. 1:58call living a Human Experience on the
  51. 2:01planet Earth so let's just start right
  52. 2:03away okay what is your Shadow Self cuz
  53. 2:06we're not going to step into Shadow work
  54. 2:08until we talk about the Shadow Self okay
  55. 2:10the mind is split up into three separate
  56. 2:12parts you have the ego you have your
  57. 2:14personal Consciousness I believe and
  58. 2:16then you have the collective
  59. 2:17Consciousness the ego is what we all
  60. 2:19know is basically Pride it's you being
  61. 2:21hurt and being a baby and acting out
  62. 2:23about it it is you being like how dare
  63. 2:25they do this to me and I'm the victim
  64. 2:26and I and then you have your personal
  65. 2:28Consciousness which is good day Day
  66. 2:30thoughts you blah blah blah and then you
  67. 2:31have the collective Consciousness which
  68. 2:33is human genetics and patterns and your
  69. 2:36fight ORF flight response basically
  70. 2:38things that we just have because we are
  71. 2:39human it's like a dog that likes to pee
  72. 2:42in a bush he does it because it makes
  73. 2:44him feel better because he's a dog I
  74. 2:45don't know honestly we got a full Topic
  75. 2:48in that zone of your mind you have the
  76. 2:51Shadow Self now the Shadow Self is
  77. 2:53basically the parts of yourself that you
  78. 2:55don't like it is the parts of yourself
  79. 2:56that you tend to repress it is the parts
  80. 2:59of yourself that are deemed unlikable
  81. 3:02and therefore are the shadow you have
  82. 3:04ever seen like Star Wars the Clone Wars
  83. 3:06there's that one scene with like Yoda
  84. 3:08and then he's fighting it's like shadowy
  85. 3:10version of Yoda think of that when you
  86. 3:11think of Shadow work and I'll put like a
  87. 3:13little photo up so that y'all are not
  88. 3:15nerds at like 12 years old like I was
  89. 3:17can understand the reference that I'm
  90. 3:19talking about basically it is the part
  91. 3:21of yourself that is unlikable and that's
  92. 3:23all that we're going to say for that in
  93. 3:24order to understand others in order to
  94. 3:27be charismatic in order to feel like you
  95. 3:30are connecting to others you have to
  96. 3:33understand yourself you have to because
  97. 3:36in Psychology if you one of those people
  98. 3:38that like watches all those online
  99. 3:39psychology videos which I absolutely
  100. 3:41recommend because I do too but then you
  101. 3:42do not apply any of those practices to
  102. 3:45you your real life your real friends
  103. 3:46your real partner your real family
  104. 3:48whatever you are going to have this fat
  105. 3:50disconnect and you're going to sit there
  106. 3:52and be
  107. 3:53like so I read this online that
  108. 3:55basically if you are on your phone it
  109. 3:57means that you don't like me so do you
  110. 3:59just hate me right now okay
  111. 4:03okay that is basically how you're going
  112. 4:05to feel the rest of your life internally
  113. 4:06and it's not fun cuz we've all been
  114. 4:08there and we don't want to be there
  115. 4:10anymore Shadow work in general is
  116. 4:12basically a practice that you can use to
  117. 4:14figure out your deepr rooted triggers
  118. 4:16patterns projections anything that you
  119. 4:19might deem as unlikable in yourself that
  120. 4:21maybe you want to change or maybe you
  121. 4:22just want to be aware of or maybe you
  122. 4:24want to accept and maybe you want to
  123. 4:25just figure out why like the depths of
  124. 4:27it all what is Shadow work basically
  125. 4:29shadow work is a very personal practice
  126. 4:32I would say it's different for everyone
  127. 4:35however there are certain ways to doing
  128. 4:37it that reap better results so I'm going
  129. 4:40to be teaching youall the best way that
  130. 4:42I have found and that Google has found
  131. 4:45to reap the most rewards in this
  132. 4:47practice that we call Shadow work so to
  133. 4:49just talk about the practice real quick
  134. 4:50without getting like too in depth about
  135. 4:52it basically whip out a journal has to
  136. 4:55be a journal if you are one of those
  137. 4:56people that writes it on your phone I
  138. 4:58will come and slap the crap out of you
  139. 5:00pick out a journal make it cute and
  140. 5:02aesthetic get a fancy little pen get a
  141. 5:04cute little pencil and you are basically
  142. 5:06going to title the page Shadow work and
  143. 5:08then you're going to date it and you're
  144. 5:09going to do whatever makes you feel so
  145. 5:11personable and so cute in your little
  146. 5:14journal and then you are basically going
  147. 5:15to find a prompt now I in the past have
  148. 5:18been known to do this in one of three
  149. 5:21ways number one is you go on Google and
  150. 5:23you search up oh my God I feel depressed
  151. 5:25give me a shadow work prompt for
  152. 5:26depression okay and then you kind of
  153. 5:28have all these trickling down prompts M
  154. 5:29and you're like which one kind of fits
  155. 5:31why I'm depressed and that is the last
  156. 5:33one that I would recommend out of these
  157. 5:34three so that's why I went first number
  158. 5:36two is kind of the one that I used to do
  159. 5:38a lot more that I think works and it's
  160. 5:41pretty nice and it's very personal to
  161. 5:42you you basically know why or what your
  162. 5:45trigger is I remember when I was I was
  163. 5:47in this like friend group and we were on
  164. 5:49this massive vacation and I just
  165. 5:52remember like I felt so cast it out and
  166. 5:54so alone and I was just like depressed
  167. 5:56in the corner I was like oh my God no
  168. 5:57one likes me and so I basically did
  169. 5:59shadow to work based on that and then
  170. 6:01the third one is my favorite and we are
  171. 6:03going to be using artificial
  172. 6:04intelligence but basically how this
  173. 6:06works is you are going to type into shat
  174. 6:09gbt I am feeling this way can you please
  175. 6:12ask me some questions to give me a
  176. 6:14shadow work prompt or multiple so that I
  177. 6:16can work on this so that I can heal so
  178. 6:18that I can be aware so that I can level
  179. 6:20up into my highest version of my highest
  180. 6:22self and then in your little Journal
  181. 6:24you'll write prompt and then you'll
  182. 6:25basically write out the sentence that it
  183. 6:27is asking you to work on and then you
  184. 6:29get into this meditative State you don't
  185. 6:31have to do this I like doing it but you
  186. 6:32don't have to I like to take like a
  187. 6:34couple deep breaths very grounding
  188. 6:36present myself in that moment and then
  189. 6:38basically you're going to just Journal
  190. 6:40about that prompt and you're going to be
  191. 6:42immersed in that journal you're not
  192. 6:43going to be checking your phone be like
  193. 6:44so what did Cindy post oh my God
  194. 6:47Cindy anyways back to why I'm depressed
  195. 6:50no you're not going to do that you're
  196. 6:51going to be present in the moment turn
  197. 6:52your damn phone on do not disturb okay
  198. 6:54jenzy talking to you and you're
  199. 6:56basically going to work on it Shadow
  200. 6:58work is of course a skill you're not
  201. 6:59going to be amazing at it and you're not
  202. 7:01going to feel like it is life-changing
  203. 7:02in the first couple times that you do it
  204. 7:04and that's why we're doing it is so that
  205. 7:05you can uncover those deep rooted
  206. 7:07conscious parts and you can get better
  207. 7:08at it yay for me personally I've noticed
  208. 7:11a lot of things that happen when I do
  209. 7:13Shadow work first off I cry almost every
  210. 7:16time I do Shadow work which is extremely
  211. 7:18uncanny for me because I maybe cry like
  212. 7:20once every other month and so it's like
  213. 7:23for me to just whip out a journal and
  214. 7:25write something down and be like not
  215. 7:27normal well okay I'm not going to say
  216. 7:29it's not
  217. 7:30not to me that just shows that it's very
  218. 7:33powerful you know what I mean that's
  219. 7:35what we're going to say about that in
  220. 7:36order to gain more confidence in order
  221. 7:38to understand others better you have to
  222. 7:40find the parts of yourself that are so
  223. 7:42deep that are so rooted that basically
  224. 7:44no one can even use them against you how
  225. 7:46many of y'all get triggered when someone
  226. 7:47like calls you out on your BS and you're
  227. 7:49like oh my God you're like how dare you
  228. 7:51see that about myself because I thought
  229. 7:54I was the only one and now like yall see
  230. 7:56it too and it just really triggers me in
  231. 7:58order to not be triggered and in order
  232. 7:59to not take everything as offensive you
  233. 8:01have to figure out why you feel that way
  234. 8:04you're not just this victim you're not
  235. 8:05just this crybaby and you're not broken
  236. 8:07because you actually have a reason why
  237. 8:10you are the way you are so that's why we
  238. 8:12do Shadow work is to figure that out
  239. 8:14okay okay I'm just going to read this
  240. 8:15because I wrote it in my notes and I
  241. 8:16really really liked how it sounded and
  242. 8:18then I'll go into what it actually means
  243. 8:20so in the entire world of Shadow work
  244. 8:23like the person who made it and
  245. 8:24everything they basically said the
  246. 8:25shadow was prone to psychological
  247. 8:27projection in which a perceiv personal
  248. 8:30inferiority is recognized as a personal
  249. 8:33moral deficiency in someone else now
  250. 8:35what does that mean basically what you
  251. 8:36find annoying about yourself you will
  252. 8:39project onto others and find annoying in
  253. 8:41them have you ever just been living your
  254. 8:44like best life and then you're just kind
  255. 8:45of like staring across the room at
  256. 8:46someone and you're just like pissed off
  257. 8:48at them you're like I really don't like
  258. 8:50you I really don't like you and then
  259. 8:52it's kind of like you kind of sit there
  260. 8:53and you're like okay but like why don't
  261. 8:54I like that and then you like come up
  262. 8:55with the most bizarre answer ever you're
  263. 8:57like well they're skin is a more fair
  264. 9:00tone and you know that pisses me off
  265. 9:02because that means that they're clearly
  266. 9:03not getting enough sunl and that you
  267. 9:05know they just don't like supporting the
  268. 9:09environment Yeah
  269. 9:11so basically they're doing something
  270. 9:14that reminds you of yourself and that is
  271. 9:16why you hate them if you notice that you
  272. 9:18hate random people for random reasons
  273. 9:20and you do not actually have a reason
  274. 9:21why it is because you are seeing
  275. 9:23something within yourself that basically
  276. 9:25triggers you and pisses you off and
  277. 9:27makes you not like the other person so
  278. 9:29we don't want to live life like that so
  279. 9:31let's start figuring out why so let's do
  280. 9:34our shadow work hey hey hey if you want
  281. 9:36to get the most out of Shadow work I
  282. 9:38would say do it whenever you are feeling
  283. 9:41the most triggered in your life for me
  284. 9:43personally I will have these periods
  285. 9:44well I'll be doing great and then all of
  286. 9:46a sudden something will happen and I
  287. 9:48will just be
  288. 9:49like so pissed off so Snappy so
  289. 9:52triggered and basically I'll kind of
  290. 9:53have to sit there and
  291. 9:55realize okay this isn't like normal and
  292. 9:59and I don't like feeling this way so why
  293. 10:01is it that what Julie said across the
  294. 10:03room is literally like making me want to
  295. 10:05like pull her hair out okay and then
  296. 10:07I'll basically think about it a little
  297. 10:08bit and I'll be like okay maybe it's cuz
  298. 10:10of that and then you sit down and you
  299. 10:11Journal about it for like 10 15 minutes
  300. 10:13and then you're like oh my God you're
  301. 10:15like so this actually relates back so
  302. 10:17when I was four and when my friend in my
  303. 10:20friend group basically said that I was
  304. 10:23not going to be it first and that I had
  305. 10:26to wait until I got tagged to be it and
  306. 10:29I didn't didn't want to look like this
  307. 10:31attention
  308. 10:32seeking person that would run in front
  309. 10:35of everyone to get tagged cuz I want to
  310. 10:37be it and I got rejected so thanks Julie
