Lately, I've been working on a more positive mindset. I've been listening to Abraham Hicks and practicing positive affirmations and meditating and and and. And yet, for every chunk of money or new opportunity I manifest, I can't seem to hold on to that access to source. I've been trying to stay on my Druid's path, but get down on myself when I go days (ahem weeks) without acknowledging my surroundings. One of my best friends texted me an article about shadow work and how focusing only on the positive affirmations denies your shadow self, which in turn, blocks manifestation.
I'm planning on working through this article here on steemit, in real time, working on the aspect of myself that I deny and shame myself the most over: my procrastination/laziness. But first, I wanted to ask, what are your experiences with manifesting/positive affirmations and/or shadow work? Do you have specific examples of habits or situations, that you can share, that you've changed with shadow work or affirmations?
