Managing your emotions may be one of the most important challenges to overcome in your lifetime. Once you have mastered your emotions, you are able to express yourself fully and authentically, overcome rejections, help others, and most importantly, find the self-love within so you can stay grounded, confident, and consistent.
Start journaling to feel your feelings and relieve your pain.
To get out of your feelings is to first go through your feelings. This is the Jedi training you need to move through your emotions. To master your own emotions is to know both shadow and light and to integrate these two parts of yourself into the Shadow Integrated State.
Begin the Shadow Work through online journaling.

The Love Story's Three Introductory Programs
The Love Story offers three Shadow Work Expressive Writing Programs designed to help you transform the pain of suppression into the passion of expression. You will begin to transform into the integrated state of knowing both your shadow and your spirit. Each Program reflects the progression of Shadow Work and is staggered to the intensity and frequency of how deep and how urgent you want to reveal the unconscious parts of yourself.
Benefits and Features of Expressive Writing

We believe pain can be transformed into creative expression through Artist-Inspired Expressive Writing. To reveal our tragedy is to transform it. Shadow Work is the beginning of bringing the unconscious to the surface. It is only when we have self-awareness that the power of choice is once again returned to us.
We believe connection, compassion, and catharsis can be created through an intimate community of kindred Journal-Artists as apprentices, mentors, pen-pals, and producers.
We believe that the mystery of love will heal the deepest parts of ourselves that have been repressed and suppressed. We believe that expression will transform depression, that anchor will transform anxiety, that narrative drama will transform trauma. We are a community of Artists & Journal-Artists committed to the act of revealing, feeling, and healing.

Testimonials About Expressive Writing
“You have the ability to just be like, ‘you know, this is my truth and if anybody doesn’t like it that’s fine because as far as they are concerned, everything that I’m saying is not real.’ It’s really helpful to know that people aren’t gonna to know what’s real, what’s not real, with what you write. You can release things and nobody will be the wiser about it.”

“I want to go back and explore. Why did it happen when it happened. …Women often suppress their emotions…we think, ‘if I just swallowed that back, it’ll go away,’ and it’s like ‘Nope! Still here.’ and so I think I’m starting to really figure, I can’t swallow that back. I need to let things out.”

“The point of journaling is to really just look inside and be like, ‘okay, what is this? Why am I feeling it? And what do I do with it?’ And that’s sort of what you have to ask yourself when you are journaling.”

When you repress the shadow, it will become louder and stronger. When you try and destroy the shadow, you will hurt yourself (who is shadow, soul and spirit) in the process. The only way to master the Shadow is to Integrate it with the Spirit. We call this, “Shadow Integration,” and this is the aim of our Expressive Writing Program, also known as “The Producer’s Playbook.”
The aim of a Journal-Artist is to illuminate and integrate one’s Shadow and Spirit so that the Power of Choice is once again returned to the Soul. The Producer’s Playbook is a creative and interactive expressive writing program designed for the Journal-Artist to transform one’s life tragedy into a divine comedy by first revealing the tragedy (the Shadow) in three acts, told in fiction, based on a true story.
As a Journal-Artist, you will journal your past and present through journaling sessions, peer-to-peer mentorships, and workshop lessons so that your shadows begin revealing itself in creative expressions. This is designed to help you discover scenes of your past to inform your present and to help you hope for a better future. It is designed to reveal the duality of your desires, designs, and destinies so you may become inspired and encouraged to choose the desire, design, and destiny of the Spirit that always aligns with love.
The Shadow’s root is fear and the Spirit’s root is Faith.
We all have a shadow to contend with, but it is illusive.
Shadows by nature are shape shifters, both seductive and secretive.
It does not want to be found because its nature is to remain hidden while creating insidious havoc in our lives.
Act One is designed to illuminate the Shadow’s cry.
Rather than fighting or feeding the shadow, our goal as Journal-Artists is to have compassion for and to accept our shadows.
Love works in paradoxes.
The way out is in.
The way for the pain to move away is when we are willing to move through it.
The way we can master our shadows is to become mindful of it.
Only through acceptance and grace can we integrate both Shadow and Spirit together so that the Power of Choice is once again returned to the Soul.
The Soul is the Soul-Journer, the Journal-Artist who chooses.
The way of illuminating a shadow is through a mirror. We all serve as mirrors because we all have shadows to contend with. While it is difficult to see our own shadows, it is relatively easier to see our shadow in another person. Illuminate the Shadow so that our Spirit may integrate with it.
