Owning Your Own Shadow

Understanding the Dark Side of the Psyche

Robert A. Johnson (author)

This powerful work from the acclaimed Jungian analyst Robert A. Johnson explores our need to 'own' our own shadow - the term Jung used to describe the dark, unlit part of the ego. He guides us through an exploration of the shadow: what it is, how it originates, and how it interacts and is made through the process of acculturation. His conclusion is that until we have undertaken the task of honouring and accepting the shadow within us, we cannot be balanced or whole , for what is hidden never goes away, but merely - and often painfully - turns up in unexpected places.

Robert A. Johnson, a noted lecturer and Jungian analyst, is also the author of He, She, We, Inner Work, Ecstasy, and Transformation.
