Shadow podcasts

Below are the best podcasts we could find on Shadow.

The “shadow” is a psychological term for the unconscious part of our personality that is often revealed in our actions but not recognized by us. Jung and Freud first exposed the idea of shadow in psychoanalysis, theorizing that the shadow represents a darkness: our repressed feelings, aggression, evil, and selfishness. Other theories hold that the shadow represents everything in the unconscious mind that we don’t want to identify as self, or part of us. Our shadow aspects—and defenses around them—can often be the source of actions and behavior that cause pain in relationships. Exploring our shadow sides takes learning, openness, and courage, and can yield a sense of wholeness and completeness.
