Until You Face Your Shadow, It Will Destroy You | Carl Jung Original

Have you ever felt a deep, unsettling reaction to someone else’s behavior? According to Carl Jung, what you judge most harshly in others is a mirror of your own unconscious shadow—the repressed, denied, and unintegrated parts of your psyche. This profound lecture delves into Jungian psychology to explore the shadow not as an enemy, but as the key to individuation, personal power, and true spiritual wholeness.
Discover why your hidden darkness holds your greatest potential and how to transform it from a source of self-sabotage into your most profound guide.
