Book description
Everyone can present themselves as kind, decent and good-natured
people to the world, but beneath the surface there is a dark side in
everyone. This emerges when we least expect it, and releases our
shameful fears and fantasies that we usually try to hide. Although
this shadow self is buried in our unconscious, it will release itself
in many forms - jealousy, anger, selfishness.
Through trying to
hide this dark part of our identities, we lose touch with our true
selves. Vivianne and Christopeher Crowley suggest confronting your
dark side in this ebook, and through facing these negative elements of
our personalities, we can learn to embrace our fears, transform
ourselves, and bring new energy into our lives. The book includes a
light-hearted quiz to see how well you know your dark side.
