Avoidance feels safe
Is easy
Until it isn’t
For What we (un)consciously
Refuse to acknowledge
Face
Just Doesn’t Magically Disappear
It lingers
It simmers
It brews within
It leaks energy
Into our relationships, work
And into daily life
It influences
Our most intimate decisions
And seriously affects
Our fundamental sense of self-worth
Fact is
That the unexamined parts
You keep pushing
Under the rug
Well, don’t stay silent
No, bit by bit
They become louder
And more cunning
In how they keep surfacing
And that’s where shadow work
Comes in
Shadow work
Eh, Nope
Shadow work isn’t about
Reliving the past
Or about wallowing in pain
Shadow work
Is about
Liberating oneself
Liberating oneself
From the silent
But over time
Increasingly debilitating grip
Unresolved trauma
Survival patterns
And suppressed emotion
Can have over one’s life
What if
Hmm
Just imagine
Visualise
What if
The uncomfortable, rebouncing ball
You keep pushing under water
Could be an invitation
Instead of a trigger
To deal
Look at
Acknowledge it
What if
Doing inner work
Dealing with it
Dissolves
Instead of repeats
Toxic patterns, relationships
And has you showing up fully
Authentically
Without apology
This is not a fantasy
It’s the transformative promise
Of shadow work
The price of avoidance
The price of avoidance?
Well, think of
Unhealed wounds
Being revisited
Over and over
Repeated heartache
And increasing Disillusion
In Love and relating
A life lived at half-capacity
Leading to Depression
And/or Illness showing up
Loss of Life Energy
Because of you
Keeping the ball
Of the unwanted
Under water
I know
Trust me
I know
I’ve been there
Done that
Lived it
With several burnouts
As a result of
Undealt with CPTSS
Unhealthy relationships
Non existent boundaries
And heavy times at work
Until a second burnout in 2006
Did help me Wake up
And turn inwards
Starting my journey within
And boy oh boy
It did bring me back to myself
Wake up
So, if you’re ready
Just like me
Stop negotiating with
And being lived by
Your fears
Reclaim your Power
Get into Gear
Step into Your Journey Within
The Freedom you’re Longing for
Isn’t Outside
It is Patiently Waiting
Inside you
To be unleashed
Trusting your journey within
Doing shadow work
Is incredibly rewarding
