In this episode, Enneagram guru Seth Abram returns to the show for an in depth conversation about Shadow Work. The shadow refers to the unconscious aspects of ourselves that we hide or deny. \u201cReally the concept of the shadow is all about what elements in our psyche are unknown to us, what\u2019s outside of our regular awareness [...] it\u2019s not just what\u2019s outside of our awareness, but it\u2019s also what discomforts the sense of self we wish to have,\u201d explains Seth. \u201cWithin me, it\u2019s what is true of me that when it\u2019s brought to my awareness, I find it super problematic. It\u2019s threatening to me, it\u2019s contradictory to what I profess my values are.\u201d

Only by welcoming and integrating our shadow aspects, can we grow our definition of ourselves and become more authentic and whole.\xa0

We\u2019ll explore:\xa0

• What the shadow is\xa0

• How self-examination through the Enneagram helps with shadow work

• What each type denies to be true about themselves

Today\u2019s discussion offers valuable insights for anyone interested in shadow work and self-discovery. \xa0To hear the rest of our conversation with Seth where we explore practices and tools to help you with your shadow work, become a Typology Institute Member to gain access to our exclusive membership podcast and watch January\u2019s town hall with Seth where members were able to ask Seth their questions live.
