What is shadow work?
Shadow work is the practice of exploring the parts of yourself
you've pushed out of sight, such as anger, envy, fear, or hidden
gifts, with curiosity instead of shame. The idea comes from
psychologist Carl Jung.
Is this a physical journal?
No. It's a digital download: a fillable PDF you can type into,
plus a printable PDF. Nothing will be shipped.
What devices does it work on?
It works best in the free Adobe Acrobat Reader on Windows, Mac,
iPad and Android. You can also use GoodNotes or Notability on
iPad, or print it at home on A4 or US Letter paper.
Can I save my answers?
Yes. Type into any box and save the file. Your answers stay on
your device. They're private and only you can see them.
I've never done shadow work. Is it for me?
Yes. The journal starts gently, explains everything along the way,
and includes grounding tools for difficult moments.
Is this therapy?
No. This journal is a tool for self-reflection and does not
replace professional mental health support. If you're living with
trauma or a mental health condition, consider using it alongside a
therapist.
