Movement Class – Shadow Integration

The Nature of the Shadow

Shadow is the part of us that we are not aware of about ourselves. We usually perceive it as inappropriate, unacceptable, or unlikable. For that reason, we can’t identify with it, and we toss it into the corners of our unconscious.

The shadow is a living and breathing energy inside of us. No matter how much we reject it, it haunts us. It comes in the form of annoying people, difficult situations, or the general NO we feel toward life and our vitality.

Integration for Wholeness

Shadow work is a crucial part of any personal growth because without acknowledging and accepting these parts of us, we live a fragmented life. In other words, what we perceive as real is our unconscious parts. What is real, then?

The definition of enlightenment is the integration of all parts of us. It is when we realize our Self’s true nature and see reality in all things.

Shadow integrated is becoming one with all that we are. Our shadow, once brought into the light of consciousness, transforms into a potential we weren’t aware of. Our shadow is the way to our essence.

What is a movement class?

The body-oriented and mindfulness-centered approach lies on two principles- the first is that the body and the psyche are inseparable, and the second is that healing exists within us.

The purpose of movement practices is to be fully present in the body and connected to what is real and alive within.

By consciously moving the body, we increase awareness, and we allow the flow of energy to open. With regular practice, we open the door to authentic expression and start living as we are at the core of our being.

Movement  practices stem from the origins of body-centered psychotherapy and have developed throughout the years. We use structured movement and breathing exercises that focus on emotional regulation and expression. We use conscious dance, storytelling, meditation, and guided fantasies. We also use authentic movement which means that we allow the wisdom of our body to find a spontaneous way of reaching balance and expression.

Movement classes can help you to:

• be present in your body
• move through some issues
• feel connected to your essence/soul
• regulate your nervous system
