Discover Carl Jung's "shadow" through engaging activities exploring personality, perception and self-awareness. Recommended for ages 16+.
About this Event

Have you ever met someone who instantly gets under your skin, even though you can't quite explain why? Or wondered why a personality trait that one person admires can completely frustrate someone else?

Join us for a friendly and interactive workshop exploring Carl Jung's fascinating concept of the "shadow" - the hidden aspects of ourselves that can influence how we see and respond to others. 🌗

Through engaging activities, group discussions and everyday examples, we'll explore why certain behaviours trigger strong reactions, discover that every personality trait has both strengths and challenges, and learn how approaching ourselves and others with greater curiosity can lead to more understanding and compassion.

This is not a therapy group, and you won't be asked to share personal experiences. Instead, it's an opportunity to learn something new, reflect on human behaviour, and enjoy meaningful conversations in a warm, welcoming environment.

During the workshop, you'll:

✨ Discover what the "shadow" really means (it's probably not what you think!)
✨ Explore why different people react differently to the same behaviours
✨ Challenge the idea that personality traits are simply "good" or "bad"
✨ Take part in engaging activities and small-group discussions
✨ Leave with a fresh perspective on yourself and the people around you

Enjoy a refreshment break with tea, coffee and light refreshments - an opportunity to relax, chat and connect with other participants.

Whether you're interested in psychology, personal growth, or simply curious about what makes people tick, this workshop is for you.

No previous knowledge of psychology is needed - just bring your curiosity and an open mind.

We look forward to welcoming you to MindLink HQ for an afternoon of conversation, reflection and discovery.
