The Dark Side of the Light Chasers

Reclaiming Your Power, Creativity, Brilliance and Dreams

by Debbie Ford

How's your shadow? (You know, that part of yourself you just don't like too much that you try to repress/ignore/etc.) Debbie Ford's great book is a classic at helping us shine some light on our dark spots and live more fully integrated, authentic, compassionate and creative lives and in this Note, we'll have fun looking at how to find the gold in the dark.
