Why Shadow Work Is Important
Shadow work is the process of exploring the hidden or repressed parts of your unconscious mind to understand and integrate them, leading to personal growth, self-awareness, and better self-acceptance. Coined by psychoanalyst Carl Jung, the "shadow self" includes traumas, fears, negative emotions, and even undeveloped potential that we try to disown. By bringing these hidden aspects into conscious awareness through practices like journaling or therapy, individuals can identify and regulate emotional reactions, improve relationships, and heal.
We believe that part of shadow work can be done on our meditation and yoga mats. Through the process of moving our bodies, getting quiet/still, opening our inner ears, we allow our emotions, stories and fears the space/time to express, bringing them to the surface of our awareness so we can process them.
We'll be reading Aghora: Left Hand of God by Robert Svoboda, using excerpts from the book for daily inspirations and journaling prompts.
Let's spend the month of October exploring our shadows.

What People Are Saying About Shadow School:
I loved Shadow School and Clara's Lila Flow classes with the themes. When I started, Fear really worked for me; later, Attachment and Maya became my favorites. Rotating the classes for a longer period was also interesting as they changed in their effect on me. Thank you! It was a great journey.

I truly enjoyed this 30-Day Shadow School challenge. I appreciate the authenticity that Clara infuses into all her classes. I liked that we repeated the series of classes throughout the month. I was able to notice something new or feel something different each time. The length of each class was perfect. I feel grateful that I joined and grateful that I made it to my mat every day during the past month. Thank you

This challenge was incredible. The shorter practices made making it to my mat daily attainable and I loved the option to do multiple classes if my schedule/body allowed it. I loved the variety, mixing Hatha/meditation/Nidra into the selection.

Shadow School tackled some difficult topics but Clara made it super accessible and allowed me to observe and integrate those sticky themes in my life in a profound and authentic way. The daily emails felt supportive and encouraging and kept me motivated to keep putting in the work daily, no matter how small. I had so much fun and I'm so grateful for the amazing content and community!
