- About -
This course will guide you towards turning your attention inwards, to your feelings, emotions, thoughts, and to your earliest memories – the parts that you have blocked, repressed, and ignored.
Once you identify these aspects of yourself, you are invited to sit with them. To feel them. To listen to what they have to say, and then to offer them the loving kindness, wisdom, and guidance you have fostered in the proceeding years.
This is the process of hunting the shadow; we make an intention to actively seek out and identify the parts of ourselves that we have kept hidden, that we repressed, that we put aside, and lovingly invite that part back in – as we would to an old friend or family member that we thought had passed out of our reach.
Put simply, this course will act as a guide, offering insights, prompts and suggestions that will help you to identify and release the limiting beliefs that no longer serve you.

- Course Content -
Each week you will receive a new module, with the following features, all geared towards the exploration of the same theme.
Email Coaching
You are encouraged to share your insights and ask any questions that arise as as a reply to this email. This is an opportunity to go deep and receive personal guidance from me, so please don’t miss out!
Guided Audio Contemplation
These are downloadable mp3 files that you can listen to.
Each one begins with a short meditation designed to give you a toolbox of practices to help you calm the mind, relax the body, and open you up to expansion, healing and growth.
From there you will be encouraged to open your mind up to a question to contemplate, to approach it with possibility, potential, and an inner attitude that leans toward freedom. You will be encouraged to become aware of any internal contractions and push back that arises and then share those with me.

Introspective Prompt
This is a question or scenario, that will encourage you to explore and reflect upon the more hidden aspects of your subconscious, personality, and past. With each prompt, you will move closer to a deeper understanding of yourself, fostering personal growth, self-acceptance, and inner harmony.
Write down your responses – how you are feeling before, during, and after as well as any memories that arise - and keep them. There is tremendous benefit to be found from repeating these prompts and then comparing your responses over time.
Expansion Challenges
Here you will be encouraged to expand your comfort zone, to interact differently with the world, perhaps pushing against some preconceived notions of who you are, both within yourself, and relative to other people.
By changing your behaviour, even just once, you will begin to see that who and what you are is not static. You are free – if you can take the steps to get there!
I encourage you to note down your internal response three times: before, during and after completing the challenge. What are you feeling? Has anything hidden been brought up? What is happening within your body?

- Pacing -
This course is designed to be completed over 12 weeks, but you are free to pace yourself however you like. The best way to get the most benefit from any course (or positive habit change) is to, well, complete it. If you miss a week or life happens, that is okay, just start again when you can.
Slow progress is better than no progress.
- Warning -
This course is not for the feint of heart. You will be pushed and encouraged to dive deep into yourself, to turn the lens of awareness inwards and to begin the process of reintegration with parts of yourself that have previously been hidden.
The rewards for such a practice are immense and ongoing – namely the identification and removal of blocks that are holding you back and no longer serve you.
But this practice may also be taxing. Shadow work, even when done right, can be confronting and potentially overwhelming, tiring, and even triggering – so make sure that you are practicing self-care and are taking steps to return yourself back to a state of grounded, mindful clarity before you proceed with the rest of your day.
It is for these reasons, that at the bottom of each email I will share with you some further resources including grounding meditations that will help you to return yourself back into the present moment and regulate yourself.
- Mindset Primer -
I invite you to commit yourself to the transformative process facilitated within this course and want you to consider the following question as you engage with each week’s content:
“What attitude do I need to take in order to get the most I can out of this session?”
Take it.
