"Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves"
Carl Jung





"I can feel totally myself in a room full of people and be totally authentic thanks to the skills Ian has as a facilitator. He works in a very calm and unobtrusive manner, creating a space for everyone to present their true selves and enter what I call the “Healing Space”.

Shadow Work

a Two-Day Workshop with

Ian Watson

in Cairo

Ian will be presenting another two-day workshop on this fascinating subject. The term 'shadow' was introduced into psychology by Carl Jung, and refers to certain aspects of the psyche which we are mostly unconscious of yet powerfully affected by in our daily lives. The shadow has both negative and positive qualities which have been repressed or denied, and becoming aware of your own shadow-nature has a powerful transformative effect on your whole life.

One way of discovering how the shadow is influencing your life is to pay attention to your dreams. Another way is to look in the mirror of your relationships with other people, and this is perhaps the most obvious, and yet also the most difficult area to encounter your shadow.

We also reveal our shadow through non-verbal communication and 'slips of the tongue', when we say what we really mean without ever meaning to say it! In this workshop we will explore all of these areas and much more besides, enabling you to gain greater insight and awareness into the unconscious forces that are running your life.

There are many benefits of shadow work, including:

• Discover how and why certain people can 'push your buttons' and upset you more easily than others

• Realize how your shadow qualities get 'projected' onto other people who then reflect them back to you

• Recognize how and why you have repeatedly attracted similar kinds of people into your life

• Learn how your 'family shadow' allocates certain traits and tendencies to specific family members

• Find hidden resources and undeveloped potentialities within yourself

• Take full responsibility for your life and empower yourself to change the relationships or circumstances that are no longer working for you

• Resolve conflicts & handle 'emotionally charged' situations in new ways

• Transform difficult relationships with friends, colleagues and family members

• Overcome destructive patterns of behaviour and relationship

• Reduce stress and release 'emotional excess baggage'

• Increase peace of mind, inner freedom and creativity

Ian's workshops are not only
informative but also transformative, providing you with the skills and tools you need to engage with the material and participate fully in your own personal development.
