The shadow is often a source of creative inspiration and greater self-acceptance. Befriending the shadow makes fear an ally and enables us to live more authentically. It also automatically improves our interpersonal relationships, because we are freed from the need to project our own negativity onto others, and we become more acutely aware when theirs is projected onto us. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e David Richo looks for where the shadow manifests in our personal life, family interactions, religion, relationships, and the world around us. He shows how to use the gentle practice of mindfulness to work with our shadow side, and he provides numerous exercises for going deeper. He is remarkably skillful at making the shadow concept not only easy to understand but supremely practical for enhancing the quality of our lives.\"Deep and spiritually challenging.\"—\u003ci\u003eSpirituality \u0026amp; Health\u003c\/i\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"David Richo has written a big book, much more than a book on the shadow and its context.  \u003ci\u003eShadow Dance  \u003c\/i\u003eis a poem, a paean to the psychological life, written with a great sense of culture and depth.
