Takeaways

• Shadi's method combines depth psychology, Eastern philosophy, social neuroscience, and emotional energy work to guide clients through the transformative process of awakening to their true selves.
• The journey to becoming whole and awakening to our true selves is called individuation in Jungian psychology.
• The personal unconscious, or shadow, is formed through childhood experiences and conditioning, and it contains repressed emotions and traits that we deny or reject.
