The Importance of Shadow
The Shadow holds both our "dark" and "light" aspects, often causing unconscious behaviors and anxieties. Working with the Shadow allows for deeper self-awareness, emotional regulation, and a more compassionate relationship with ourselves. Our Shadow, a concept coined by Carl Jung, is a complex part of our psyche that encompasses both our positive and negative qualities. It often manifests in our unconscious behaviors and anxieties, shaping our interactions with ourselves and others.
By exploring and understanding our Shadow, we can gain deeper self-awareness and emotional regulation. This can lead to a more compassionate relationship with ourselves, as we begin to accept and embrace all aspects of our being.
Working with the Shadow can also help us to identify and address any limiting beliefs or self-destructive patterns that may be hindering our growth and happiness. By understanding the root causes of these patterns, we can develop healthier coping mechanisms and cultivate greater self-acceptance.
Overall, working with the Shadow is a transformative process that can lead to greater self-awareness, emotional well-being, and personal growth. By embracing all aspects of ourselves, we can cultivate a more authentic and fulfilling life.

What Our Clients Are Saying
Anka Hoerster
I feel like not just my work as nurse but also my life in a human body has become so much more fluid, translucent and trusting. There is so much more that I need to learn before I’ll be able to effectively support others with the introduction you gave here, but every time I apply some of it already the results are so confirming and sometimes like magic.
Pavani
Overall, I cannot thank enough Dr. Lad and entire AyurPrana team for this amazing process and support. In nearly 14yrs, this is the longest spell of feeling better without dreading the next relapse. This has also allowed me to reap the benefits of my sadhana to remain in awareness. I am beating up myself for not doing this sooner! Will continue this journey…..
Pranayama Participant
I loved the ways in which you explained things to us, the joy and the good energy you transmitted. Thank you so so much! And I am grateful to Dr. Lad, such an honor to practice with him and learn from his expertise! This immersion was worth every cent, glad that I overcame the stingyness of doing something just for myself.
