Psychedelic Therapy Frontiers

What is shadow work?

July 17, 2024 Numinus Episode 162

Has there ever been a time when you didn’t feel like yourself? Maybe somebody did or said something to you and you overreacted in a way that left you feeling embarrassed or confused? Well, today we’re going to examine experiences like this through the lens of what Swiss psychotherapist, Carl Jung, called the shadow. You’re listening to Psychedelic Therapy Frontiers–the podcast devoted to exploring the frontiers of psychedelic medicine and what it takes to cultivate a healthy mind, body, and spirit. Psychedelic Therapy Frontiers is brought to you by Numinus and is hosted by Dr. Steve Thayer and Dr. Reid Robison. In addition to explaining what the personal shadow is, Reid and Steve explore the function of the shadow, how shadow content reveals itself to the conscious mind, methods of doing shadow work, the importance of self-compassion and acceptance when doing this work, how psychedelics are used in shadow work, and much more.
