Shadow Work Made Simple
Online Course
The key to rapid personal and professional transformation.
If any form of real change is truly desired in life, we must understand and manage the complexity of our inner world - the beliefs, meanings, narratives and stories that shape our identity.
Alumni of Play CoLab courses continue to cite this shadow work process as the fundamental game changer. So we designed this online course to make shadow work accessible to anyone. It can be used by individuals or as a basis of a professional development course.
So what is shadow work?
Shadow work brings hidden parts of a person’s unconscious into their conscious awareness. This begins a process which allows them to release habitual behaviours and patterns of being that have, inadvertently, held them back.
Here are some of benefits of shadow work:
-
It builds rapid insight and lifelong self-reflective capabilities which …
-
enhances self-awareness and emotional maturity
-
It identifies and eliminates trigger points and reactions to other people and so it…
-
transforms relationships even those that are challenging and even dysfunctional.
-
It builds resilience, self-accountability and self responsibility
How this course works:
Shadow Work Made Simple is a ten module online course featuring videos and animations to explain the process as well as meditation and reflections to support the process.
Participants can be part of an online community as well as being able to access free monthly Q and A sessions on zoom with facilitators Jenny Devine and Sandy Burgham.
The course is self-directed and self-paced. While this course can be completed in as little as 21 days, participants have recommended that the chapters and lessons be spread out over a six week period. It’s entirely up to the participant.
