Episode 1 Guided Meditation — Meeting the ShadowWhat if the parts of yourself you’ve hidden or resisted were not enemies, but guides? In this first meditation of the Shadow Program, you are invited into a safe and gentle encounter with your shadow.Through breath, presence, and imagery, Patrick Ryan guides you into a contemplative journey where you meet the shadow not as something to fight or exile, but as a source of wisdom, energy, and wholeness. You’ll be supported in noticing what the shadow carries, how it speaks, and what gifts may be waiting for you when you turn toward it with courage and compassion.This meditation is not about forcing change. It’s about creating a container of safety, curiosity, and respect where the shadow can reveal what has been hidden. It offers a chance to feel the first layers of integration — a step toward reclaiming the energy, creativity, and authenticity often locked in the parts of ourselves we’ve denied.Whether this is your first exploration of shadow work or a deepening of long-standing practice, the meditation provides an entryway into shadow integration as a lived, embodied experience.Note of Support: This podcast is for reflection and education only.
