Lesson Summary

A beginning practice offered by Robert Augustus Masters involves exploring your shadow elements by completing spontaneous sentences. Here's how the practice works:

• Finish the incomplete sentences aloud and then write down your immediate responses.
• Revisit your responses and add any further insights that come to mind.
• Reflect on the prompts provided:
• Something in me I often feel aversion toward
• The emotion I am least comfortable expressing
• What I find hard to admit in an argument
• The aspect I am most hesitant to express in a relationship
• What I least want others to know about me
• Admitting that I am...
• My response when feeling shame
• What I tend to judge others for
• When I give my power away
• These responses can reveal elements likely residing in your shadow, partially or fully.
• Embrace the process of looking inside with curiosity and without seeking immediate clarity.

Turning towards your shadow allows for a deeper understanding of yourself and fosters ongoing self-discovery.
