In spirituality, shadow work is the process of bringing to light the dark or hidden aspects of the self that we keep out of our conscious awareness. This can be done through practices like journaling, meditation, and therapy. By doing shadow work, we can become more aware of our own shadows and learn to accept them as a part of ourselves. We can also begin to heal the wounds that these shadows represent. When we do shadow work, we are ultimately working towards self-acceptance and wholeness.
