“After all, in essence, good people!” — once again we are amazed when faced with an unsympathetic behavior or act of familiar people. We are even more perplexed when we have to feel shame for our own mistakes: “I don’t understand how it happened.”
“After all, in essence, good people!” — once again we are amazed when faced with an unsympathetic behavior or act of familiar people. We are even more perplexed when we have to feel shame for our own mistakes: “I don’t understand how it happened.” Jungian analyst James Hollis in his book gives a simple explanation (“a truism for depth psychology”): the human psyche is not something whole, unified or uniform, as the Ego would like to believe. It is divided and multifaceted. Further, the author focuses on the Shadow (a concept first formulated by Carl Gustav Jung) — an unconscious complex, which means the repressed (repressed) properties of the conscious part of the personality. This book is dedicated to how to recognize your «shadow sides» and how to work with them. “The intertwining of conscious life and the shadow world promises great riches, as it involves a wide range of our humanity in this game,” promises Hollis.
