Healing The Shadow – Deep Process Psychotherapy
An Invitation into The Transformational World of Shadow Work
What if the parts of your personality you most dislike hold the key to finding joy and fulfilment in your life? What if there is gold to be found in the darkest and most challenging aspects of yourself?
In this exciting new book Marianne Hill explores these ideas along with many others as she takes us on a journey into the transformational world of shadow work.
Marianne brings this work to life in tangible and engaging ways, using realistic examples and accessible explanations to help us enter into this remarkable world. The contemporary method of self-development work that she describes weaves together a powerful set of concepts – parts work, process work, shadow work and a current-day understanding of the archetypes – to create a dynamic form of healing known as Deep Process Psychotherapy. We are invited to explore our own lives through the lens of this comprehensive framework.
Timely, radical and above all effective, this modern approach to personal development brings about profound and lasting change in people’s lives. This book is important reading for anyone – layperson or professional – who is interested in exploring something beyond talking therapies. It is also designed for those wishing to pursue a career in therapeutic work and looking for a way forward that is innovative, embodied and experiential.

WARRIOR, MAGICIAN, LOVER, KING
A guide to the male archetypes updated for the 21st century
This exciting new book by Rod Boothroyd (Healing The Shadow practitioner and trainer) is a guide to men’s archetypes, emotions, and the development of the mature masculine in the world today. Here Rod describes the male archetypes of Warrior, Magician, Lover and King in a way designed for a 21st century audience. He explains the characteristics of each archetype in its balanced form, as well as the inflated and deflated forms which can result from the emotional wounding we experience during childhood. If you’ve ever had difficulty understanding why you behave in the way you do, this book will provide you with clear answers.
FINDING THE KING WITHIN
How to access and embody the leadership, power and authority of your Inner King archetype.
This book is probably the most detailed explanation of the King archetype so far written. It offers everyone, regardless of their level of experience or knowledge, new insights and new perspectives, and provides a detailed yet easily understood description of the role of the King archetype in men’s psyche and the wider world today. As author Rod Boothroyd points out early in this book, what our modern world requires is not autocratic, controlling or even dictatorial kings, but a new model of Kingship which combines personal power, leadership and authority in a heart centred framework.

THE LITTLE BOOK OF SHADOW WORK
Transform your life through shadow work
Shadow work involves delving into your subconscious to meet and heal your ‘shadow self’ – the ‘darker side’ of your personality. This often includes aspects of your self that you have repressed out of fear and shame because they do not conform to the environment around you. However, the memories we repress do not simply go away. Our emotional reactions and behaviour in the present day are often influenced by past experiences. For example, if you are often quick to become frustrated, angry or defensive, then this may be a sign that you need to address your shadow side.
With clear explanations, simple exercises and journal prompts, this pocket-sized guide is the perfect book to help you address, accept and overcome your shadow.

ARCHETYPES JOURNALS
NEW ARCHETYPES JOURNALS NOW AVAILABLE!
After several years of exploring and refining this concept we have now developed a very powerful, effective and user friendly way of exploring issues and challenges in your life.
These journals are designed to support you in exploring what is really going on for you, and allowing your shadow sides to speak. The journals are based on the four archetypes that we work with in Healing The Shadow. The modern day names we use for these archetypes are: The Heart Centred Leader, The Action Taker, The Transformer and The Feeling Body. The traditional names are: Sovereign, Warrior, Magician and Lover.
The top image shows the journal with the modern names and the bottom image shows the journal with the traditional names. Each double spread in the journals allows space for you to explore a particular issue by encouraging each of these four archetypal parts of you to speak.
The journals come with a book mark that contains guiding questions to help you to get in touch with each of the archetypes in turn and to ensure that this part of you has been fully expressed. There are also eight introductory pages explaining how to use your journal and to get the most out of it. The journals are printed on recycled paper, wire bound, A4 sized and cost £15 each plus postage. If you would like to order one please email Marianne on mariannehillshadowwork@gmail.com
Comments from a happy journal user: ‘On first seeing Marianne’s Archetypes Journal I was struck by how straightforward it is. The journal is structured in a way that makes it easy to engage with. Having done some Healing The Shadow sessions with Marianne I was excited to read the introduction; the example provided in the journal made it an easy process to follow.
When I embarked on my first entry, I was feeling quite down; whenever I write something down in a book that looks really beautiful I put pressure on myself to write the right thing- but with this journal I felt I was granted permission not to be perfect! I found myself dealing with my ‘Feeling Body’ first (lots of tears and grief came up). I then turned to the ‘The Transformer’ who was fearful of making a mistake. Next, there was the ‘The Action Taker’ who was definitely very angry. I had no idea that I was thinking and feeling some of these things.
I couldn’t face writing from my Heart Centred Leader on that day but the next day I sat down and read through what I’d written and with the prompts from the bookmark my HCL was able to stand in her power and write from that place. What she wrote was very inspirational- I had no idea that she could be so supportive and helpful.
A sense of calm came over me with a feeling of goodwill toward myself. It was such a great process and really helpful- it was like doing a Healing The Shadow session in the Green Room with Marianne. Thank you Marianne for bringing your Archetypes Journal into being.’ Julie Grey, Healing The Shadow client.
