77. Understanding Shadow Work & Emotional Wounding
In this week’s episode of The Alcohol ReThink Podcast Patrick is joined by Rod Boothroyd. Rod is an experienced counsellor, life coach and group facilitator.
He’s the author of: Warrior, Magician, Lover, King - A Guide To The Male Archetypes Updated For The 21st Century: A guide to men's archetypes, emotions, and the development of the mature masculine in the world today. In this episode, Patrick and Rod are discussing shadow work and emotional wounding. They explore how experiences in our childhood can have lasting effects into adulthood and lead to addictions and more.
Some of the cool things they also cover are:
- Understanding what ‘shadow’ work is
- Accepting all parts of you
- How beliefs of the world are formed as children and drive our lives as adults
- When you shine a light on your shadow, it starts to release the shame or fear attached to it
- Discover how you can work with your shadow
- Healthy ways to express (often surpressed) emotion
