Shadow work is a buzzword nowadays.
Deep stuff, right?

I remember when I first heard the term shadow work.
It was shortly after my breakup (perfect timing!)
and I was so fascinated by what shadow work was and how it could help me heal.
Quite frankly, I was tired of my own bullshit.
I wanted to understand why I kept attracting the same partners and situations over and over again.
I wanted to learn how to step into my power and set my boundaries.
I wanted to be in a relationship that helps me grow and spiritually evolve.
Taking responsibility is KEY here.
We cant change what we arent willing to look at.
The next step is to write down the negative traits all your previous partners had.
What were the things that pissed you off?
What were the things that you couldnt stand?
The final step is to release judgment towards your ex partners and yourself.
This work isnt about blaming or shaming others and ourselves.
Take a look at the positive and negative aspects that you wrote about your previous partners.
Are these traits a reflection of you?
Do you find that you also possess these behaviors in one way or another?
Everyone we date is a mirror.
