Shamanic Journeying & Shadow work
This meditation will help you go much deeper into the lower parts of your chakras, including significant areas such as the solar plexus, sacrum, and root. Additionally, you can also tap into your subconscious mind and engage in important shadow work. The shadows that we encounter in our lives or perceive as external entities are fundamentally connected to our fears.
Often, we mistakenly feel attacked by these shadows, but it is really our own fears that we must courageously face and confront. Imagine your brain as a vast, deep, dark ocean, with you as the diver on a quest to find the glowing pearl hidden beneath the surface. By bravely confronting these deep-seated fears, you can unlock hidden potential within yourself, which ultimately allows you to achieve a greater sense of balance, harmony, and self-awareness in your life.
