Summary
In this guided meditation, recorded on the day of the US midterm elections 2018, I invite a creative exploration of the shadow self and its integration. Courage isn't bravado, control or domination. Rather, true courage is the ability to self-reflect, to admit to one's failings, to forgive others, and to choose compassion over competition. This meditation is a practice of externalizing, then (re)internalizing our shadow selves so that we can work with them skillfully and make choices rooted in courage.
