I really love this book! It is very helpful for those who want to learn more about shadow work and working more on themselves

I'm glad I could read this book. I've wanted to delve into shadow work and never been quite sure of where to start. Kirby gives readers a wonderful and safe place to start.

I have always been intrigued but also somewhat daunted by 'shadow work' this book is not only beautiful - but it's easy to follow, and feels very gentle and a good way in.

I didn't know much about Shadow Work and appreciate how this book guides the reader through it. It's very aesthetically pleasing and I loved the look of it. I would definitely want to buy one one for my shelf.

I value this book. It's in equal parts informative and questioning. Beautifully illustrated, it gets you take a good luck at yourself, including the aspects of yourself you'd prefer were not there. There are lots of points to consider provided and action steps you can take to understand yourself better, treat yourself better, and to be and feel more authentic. It's a good book for anyone who's been through trauma. There's a handy collection of journal prompts and further reading references at the end.

There were some yoga poses presented which, to me, didn't feel relevant. And I felt that it was a shame that the book didn't include room to write your responses to the prompts and questions, since I feel this is the key element to carrying out shadow work.

Pretty woo-woo. Some of the journaling prompts were okay though. I do not know if I will try any of them going forward, but I did save some of them for future consideration.

Thank you NetGalley for the ebook in exchange for an honest review.

After reading Manifestation by the same author, I was eager to dig into Shadow Work. Shadow Work was a topic I knew way less about than manifestation, and thought if it was like Manifestation then I would really enjoy this but I found it quite repetitive. However, it was a good read in general, with good prompts and exercises.

This is another book I read to the end to get a feel for it.
Pictures are really pretty, paragraphs set out so it’s easy to reads d understand. It does go into depth of a lot of parts which is good so you understand what you have to do and why.

I will be going back over the book to the notes, ready to bring this work into my own life.

A very interesting introduction and overview of Shadow Work. I liked how this book was broken up, and the descriptions are very digestible. It's a must-have for anyone interested in getting started!
