Facing The Minotaur - Whangarei


Facing the Minotaur - Whangarei is a 15 week group exploration of the shadow self. 

Facing The Minotaur; Finding your way through the shadow, is a call to wholeness that softens and strengthens, reveals and heals patterns and challenges. 

Initially developed as an online offering I am proud to offer this as an in-person deep dive.

I have come to know that shadow is the place that not only holds our wounds but our immense gifts and tending to it will bring us into a clean and healthy relationship with ourselves and the world around us.
​
In circle we will work the process that encompasses journaling, creativity, visualisation, and discussion so that you will create your own personalised guide to your shadow and create a lifelong practise of meeting and processing shadow. 

As the shadow arises in the unconscious we use the language of the unconscious - metaphor and image - to engage with the work which means you will have a unique relationship and unfolding with the process which will meet you perfectly.

During this process you will have access to a check in call with me once a week to embed your practise and follow any personal ideas and processes.

Wellbeing

You need to be in good psychological shape to do this work.  If you are unwell this work is not suitable.  Please check with your healthcare provider and with me before you start.

I take wellbeing very seriously and the group will have very clear boundaries to support our process, privacy and personal sovereignty.

Why do this work at all?

This work is not all unicorns and rainbows. When we are able to face and make peace with our wounds we are able to stand in our own light with courage and wisdom. 
​
The call to shadow work is a call to wholeness. 

When we make this a priority we will shift our sense of capacity and responsibility, find new ways to engage with the world around us and within us.

Why is it 15 weeks and what do I get?

This is a big body of work.  It is not flimsy or insubstantial because tending to shadow needs deep roots.  A commitment to your inner life  and work is necessary but the rewards are so rich. You will get a rich experience of deep inner work, with a bunch of people who are walking the same path.  You will work using creativity and the unconscious in unique ways that will support your growth. You will have access to a weekly call with me for the 15 weeks as a way of deepening your practise.  You will be held with honour and love.  You will also have access to all online resources and a secret facebook support group for those who are walking the process online.

What will a group provide?

Working in a group means we are able to use our collective energy to shift the barriers and tend with courage to our investigation into shadow.  We will learn together and grow together.  It also helps to encourage us when our energy is flagging.
At the end of our time together you will have an understanding of shadow, a process to meet shadow, a way of digesting what you find in shadow, a personalised guide to shadow and an understanding of how to walk through the world with your shadow as a companion.  This will all be enhanced and deepened by the understanding you have gained by walking alongside the others in the group.

When and where?

We will meet each Tuesday from 5:30 -7:30 at my studio in Kensington.
