the ancient practice of growing

mental strength & consciousness

Published June 5, 2023

​

In the Golden Shadow Method, meditation is used as awakening consciousness. In stillness and silence, the inner voice of our shadow can be heard. We use meditation to stabilize the mind, to observe habitual patterns, and bring into awareness how we may be sabotaging our full potential. Meditation is used for self study, increasing creativity and intuition, and spiritual growth.  

This journal includes:
* Meditation instruction
* Buddhist quotes
* Journal space for self-study observations and identifying habitual patterns
* Space for creativity, doodling, reflections, insights and realizations
