Romancing the Shadow by Connie Zweig Phd
Once in a rare while, a book emerges that promises to reshape our understanding of this human mind. Romancing the Shadow is one such work. In this groundbreaking book the reader is given a clear and accessible guide to understanding the dark side of the personality which we so often disown. It is in this part of our psyche that we hide our forbidden feelings of rage, envy , sadness and shame which can erupt in such uncontrollable behaviours as addiciton, depression, lying and self-criticism. Romancing the Shadow is the definitive work on how to live consciously with the widespread issues of the dark side in life's most sensitive arenas. The authors draw on Jungian psychology, myth, folktales and insightful stories gleaned from their own clients' lives to trace the development of the shadow from its birth within the family crucible to its emergence in every aspect of adult life, - love, sex, marriage, work, money, - and also its manifestation in today's most difficult social issues, such as racism, child abuse and violence. And they invite readers to romance the shadow, to draw it out of hiding, to discover its hidden treasures, and to re-energize our connections with creativity and the soul.This book enables you to peel away the layers of your soul and get in touch with the purity of being that lies within you
