How to Let Go of the Past Using Shadow Work

Letting go of the past isn’t just a mindset — it’s a process. Shadow work helps you uncover what’s been buried and transform it into peace.

In this post, I’ll walk you through how shadow work can help release pain from the past, reframe what happened, and create space for emotional healing.

🟣 What Is Shadow Work?

Shadow work is the practice of facing the parts of ourselves that we avoid — fear, shame, guilt, old stories, and wounds. By bringing them to light, we begin to soften, heal, and rewrite those inner patterns.

🔮 My Go-To Process for Letting Go:

1. Identify the memory that still feels heavy  
2. Journal honestly — what story did I take from that?  
3. Ask: is that story still true today?  
4. Use a tarot spread to explore emotional blocks  
5. Reframe the story with compassion and new language  
6. Use affirmations daily to replace the pattern  
7. Visualize yourself at peace with the past
