Séances d’accompagnement en danse thérapie : témoignage d’une stagiaire de Per Se Nota©

admin2125 — Tue, 16 Jun 2026 08:15:34 +0000

Ces séances d’accompagnement en danse-thérapie, M. V. les a vécues de l’intérieur — en tant que stagiaire en formation chez Per Se Nota©. Elle nous livre ici un récit authentique de quatre interventions auprès d’élèves de collège, entre méditation guidée, improvisation et création chorégraphique.

Se lancer pour la première fois en danse-thérapie, c’est entrer dans un espace où tout ce qu’on a appris en formation doit soudainement se traduire en présence, en écoute, en improvisation. C’est ce passage du studio à la réalité du terrain que M. V., actuellement en formation danse thérapie chez Per Se Nota©, a accepté de nous partager à travers ce récit.

Son contexte : intervenir auprès d’élèves de collège, dans le cadre d’ateliers de danse autour de l’expression des émotions, en binôme avec un professeur d’EPS au profil bien différent du sien. Quatre séances, quatre expériences distinctes — et une évolution sensible, tant du côté des enfants que de la praticienne elle-même.

Ce témoignage dit quelque chose d’essentiel sur la pratique de la danse-thérapie : ce n’est pas une méthode qu’on applique, c’est une posture qu’on habite, séance après séance, en ajustant, en osant, en s’affirmant. Nous vous laissons découvrir son récit, dans ses propres mots.

Partage d’expérience — M. V.

Dans le cadre des ateliers de danse au collège, je fus sollicitée pour accompagner un professeur d’EPS afin d’animer des séances de danse pour des élèves de 12 ans. Comme le thème était « exprimer ses émotions », je fus vivement intéressée et inspirée. Ce fut pour moi un petit challenge : d’une part, il s’agissait d’un groupe de 25 élèves, et d’autre part, le professeur était un homme très charismatique et directif.

Première séance — la méditation comme point de départ

Pour ce premier cours, il m’a demandé de proposer un échauffement sous forme de méditation, dont le but était de ressentir une émotion ou de conscientiser un état intérieur, pour le traduire ensuite en mouvement. Sachant que je ne maîtrise pas bien la méditation, j’ai stressé en amont — d’autant que le public était jeune et certainement peu expérimenté pour la plupart.

J’avais préparé un texte appris par cœur, que finalement je n’ai pas trop suivi. Je fus agréablement surprise de constater que la majorité était réceptive. J’ai invité les enfants à poser une main sur leur ventre pour prendre conscience des mouvements liés à leur respiration, puis je les ai guidés à travers les couleurs pour voyager dans leur corps en douceur et de manière imagée.

Un moment délicat : la réaction du professeur face à deux élèves qui riaient nerveusement — il leur demanda fermement de se mettre de dos. Je me suis permis de leur parler discrètement pour les réintégrer dans le groupe, à condition qu’elles respectent leurs camarades. Ce qu’elles firent. Le professeur reconnut que cette approche fut bénéfique, bien qu’il n’aurait pas agi ainsi.

À l’issue de la séance, j’ai demandé aux enfants si une image leur était venue pendant la méditation. Plusieurs se sont exprimés, dont trois m’ont particulièrement touchée : « Je me suis vue petite, bercée dans les bras de ma maman », « Je me voyais sauter sur mon lit en rigolant », « Je caressais mon chat ». J’ai pu leur faire prendre conscience que ces images étaient une ressource précieuse — qu’ils pourraient y revenir en cas de stress pour se recentrer et mieux gérer leurs émotions.

Je suis sortie de cette séance contente d’avoir tenu la méditation, mais frustrée de n’avoir pu faire danser les enfants.

Deuxième séance — s’affirmer et laisser le corps parler

Pour cette séance, je me suis risquée à m’affirmer davantage. Le professeur souhaitait sensibiliser les enfants par le biais d’images : j’avais apporté des photos de peintures et d’œuvres d’art. Chaque enfant choisissait une image pour s’en inspirer, puis nous avons travaillé en petits groupes avec des exercices de miroir et de question-réponse.

Afin de préserver la confidentialité émotionnelle de chacun, j’ai demandé aux élèves de me glisser en privé un mot en lien avec leur image. Je disais ensuite ces mots à voix haute, et tous dansaient le mot ensemble — sans que l’on sache à qui il appartenait. Ce fonctionnement a libéré les corps : même les élèves les plus réservés se sont pris au jeu.

Nous avons aussi travaillé sur le ressenti par le dessin : chaque enfant dessinait rapidement ce qu’il avait ressenti, puis échangeait son dessin avec un binôme. L’exercice consistait à dire ce que le dessin de l’autre évoquait — non pas à le juger, mais à y projeter sa propre sensibilité. Puis chaque groupe a créé une danse en cercle, chacun proposant à tour de rôle un mouvement repris par tous.

Troisième séance — danser dehors, se connecter à l’espace

Pour cette séance en extérieur, le professeur m’a confié la préparation de A à Z. J’ai choisi un lieu paisible avec pelouse, arbres et escaliers — un espace qui permettait à la fois de se connecter à la nature et d’utiliser les différentes architectures pour créer.

La séance a débuté par un moment de concentration intérieure : yeux fermés, respiration profonde, puis écoute de ce que le vent ou le chant des oiseaux pouvait faire résonner dans le corps. Les enfants se sont mis en mouvement progressivement, portés par la nature elle-même comme playlist.

J’ai ensuite proposé un exercice sur la notion de « place » dans un groupe : par équipe de 5 ou 6, chaque enfant (numéroté) venait tour à tour prendre une position dans l’espace, en lien avec celle du précédent sans le toucher, jusqu’à former une sculpture vivante collective. Puis le premier se déplaçait à nouveau, entraînant une nouvelle recomposition du groupe.

Ce qui m’a le plus émue : certains enfants ont dit avoir l’impression que leurs corps formaient une sculpture qui se mettait en mouvement pour prendre une autre forme ailleurs. Cette capacité à percevoir leur propre expression corporelle collective m’a profondément touchée.

Quatrième séance — créer ensemble une chorégraphie

Pour cette dernière séance, le professeur m’a demandé de créer un petit fragment chorégraphié, destiné à servir de refrain entre des improvisations réalisées tout au long du trimestre. J’ai choisi une musique entraînante et des mouvements simples, faciles à mémoriser.

J’ai commencé par montrer trois pas de base, répétés plusieurs fois et ajustés au niveau de chacun. Placée face aux différentes lignes (les 25 élèves répartis en 4 rangées), j’ai guidé le groupe en comptant le rythme et en leur faisant repérer un accent musical pour partir ensemble. Les enfants se sont montrés enthousiastes et fiers du résultat.

La séance s’est terminée en beauté : les enfants ont dansé librement sur I’m So Excited des Pointer Sisters. Une ambiance festive, collective, joyeuse — exactement ce que la danse peut apporter.

Ce que cette expérience m’a appris

Je suis plutôt ravie de cette expérience auprès d’enfants. Même si le but n’était pas thérapeutique à proprement parler, j’ai pu observer une évolution réelle : certains élèves, très en retrait au début, se sont révélés de plus en plus participants au fil des séances.

J’ai également beaucoup échangé avec le professeur sur nos approches différentes — notamment sur la notion de consentement dans le contact physique, que j’ai défendue avec conviction. Cela m’a permis de gagner en confiance et de valider quelque chose d’important : la méthode apprise en formation Per Se Nota© fonctionne. Elle s’adapte, elle invite, elle transforme — même là où on ne l’attendait pas.

Danse Thérapie et Psychologie : Jung, Winnicott et l’Exploration du Mouvement

admin2125 — Wed, 01 Apr 2026 14:28:20 +0000

The dance therapy est une approche psychothérapeutique qui utilise le corps et le mouvement comme outils de transformation et de développement personnel. Elle s’appuie sur des concepts issus de la psychologie analytique de Carl Gustav Jung, des travaux de Donald Winnicott, mais aussi des approches comportementales, cognitives et existentielles. Dans cet article, nous explorons comment ces différentes perspectives se rejoignent pour enrichir la pratique de la danse thérapie.

Qu’est-ce que la danse thérapie ?

La danse thérapie repose sur l’idée que le corps est le reflet de la psyché. En utilisant le mouvement comme langage de l’inconscient, elle permet :

d’exprimer des emotions difficiles à verbaliser
de libérer des blocages anciens ou inconscients
de favoriser l’intégration psychique et le développement personnel

La danse thérapie est une psychothérapie intégrative qui promeut le bien-être émotionnel, cognitif, physique et social à travers le mouvement.

Les fondements psychologiques de la danse thérapie

1. La psychologie analytique de Carl Gustav Jung

Jung a développé la psychologie analytique, qui se distingue de la psychanalyse classique de Freud par :

La notion d’inconscient collectif : ensemble d’archétypes et de symboles universels partagés par l’humanité.
L’individuation : processus de développement personnel intégrant toutes les parties de la personnalité (ombre, lumière, émotions, contradictions).
La symbolique et l’analyse des rêves comme voies d’accès à l’inconscient.

En danse thérapie :

Les mouvements spontanés révèlent des émotions ou désirs inconscients
Le corps devient un canal pour intégrer des expériences symboliques et émotionnelles

2. La psychanalyse et le transfert

La danse thérapie intègre également des notions psychanalytiques, comme le transfert :

Le transfert est le processus par lequel les désirs inconscients se projettent sur autrui, particulièrement dans le cadre thérapeutique.

Le mouvement permet d’exprimer ces projections dans un espace sécurisé, facilitant la reconnaissance et la transformation de ces dynamiques inconscientes.

3. Donald Winnicott et le développement du self

Winnicott insiste sur l’importance de la relation et du holding pour le développement :

Le balancement maternel rappelle le rythme intra-utérin et initie la construction de l’individualité.
La danse recrée ce balancement originel, permettant de reconnecter le corps et le self.
Le cadre sécurisant du groupe ou du thérapeute favorise l’expression libre des émotions et la créativité.

Approches complémentaires en psychologie

1. Comportementalisme et cognitivisme

The thérapies comportementales corrigent les comportements inadaptés par des exercices pratiques et l’exposition progressive.
The approches cognitives permettent de déconstruire les chaînes de pensées qui génèrent anxiété, phobies ou stress.
En danse thérapie, le mouvement agit comme une immersion corporelle dans les émotions, facilitant la reprogrammation comportementale de manière plus intuitive.

2. Psychologie existentielle

La psychothérapie existentielle se concentre sur l’ici et maintenant et la quête de sens :

La danse permet d’explorer la liberté, la responsabilité et la créativité personnelle
Elle favorise la maturation émotionnelle en donnant du sens à l’expérience vécue

Conclusion

The dance therapy est un pont entre psychologie analytique, psychanalyse, psychologie existentielle et développement personnel. Elle permet :

l’expression des émotions et de l’inconscient
l’intégration et l’individuation du self
le développement de la créativité, de la confiance et des relations

En combinant le travail corporel avec les concepts de Jung et Winnicott, la danse devient un véritable outil de transformation personnelle et psychique, favorisant l’épanouissement global.

Danse intuitive vs danse thérapie : cette comparaison revient souvent chez les personnes cherchant à améliorer leur bien-être par le mouvement. Bien que ces pratiques partagent une base corporelle, elles ont des finalités, des cadres et des accompagnements très différents.

Explorer librement avec la danse intuitive

La danse intuitive invite à se reconnecter à son corps sans contrainte. Elle s’appuie sur l’écoute intérieure pour laisser émerger des mouvements spontanés et libérateurs. Cette forme de danse est particulièrement utilisée dans les approches créatives et holistiques.

Les bénéfices d’une pratique intuitive

Liberté d’expression corporelle sans chorégraphie
Accès facilité à l’émotion et à la détente
Renforcement du lien corps-esprit

La danse comme outil thérapeutique structuré

Ce que la danse thérapie mobilise

Objectifs thérapeutiques définis avec le participant
Approche intégrative : psychologie, corps, émotion
Outil complémentaire en santé mentale validé par la recherche

Pratiques différentes, bienfaits complémentaires

Danse intuitive vs danse thérapie : ces deux pratiques diffèrent par leur cadre, mais convergent dans leur capacité à apaiser, libérer et transformer. Elles peuvent se compléter dans un parcours de mieux-être ou de formation professionnelle.

L’expression de ses émotions avec la danse

admin2125 — Mon, 31 Jul 2023 16:07:00 +0000

Express their emotions with dance

You need to express your emotions? The dance allows you to express your emotions in every cell of your body, through your skin, your eyes, your gestures...

The dance is an incredible expression of the body that allows us to express our deepest emotions. In fact, the dance mobilizes my body, my senses, my creativity, my unconscious.

When I dance, I feel alive, I feel free. I can invent my own way because I have the space to invent things that, strung together, that stop. Every movement, every step, every turn is a manifestation of who I am. Dance enables me to convey emotions that words, at this moment, can not express. Dance is a great way for me to meet and meet the other with its emotions.

When I'm sad, I dance to meet this sadness. I'm from the place in me to let my tears turn into movements. When I'm happy, I dance and celebrate life, to let my body radiate joy. When I'm angry, I dance to explore this powerful energy and transform it into strength.

The dance is an invitation to explore all the facets of our being. In effect, it allows us to connect with our emotions buried, and express them without a filter. This is a real therapy for the soul.

So, join me in a dance hall and let our emotions come through in each gesture. Dance is a universal language that unites us all. Share with me your experiences of dance and the emotions that motivate you. Together, let's vibrate our body and touch people's hearts.

Express the joy with the dance

The dance unfolds, the joy in us

Let me tell you about a passion that lights up my heart and thrills my soul : dance !

When I dance alone, in a room of dance with others, in a show and the music turns up, I feel transported into a magical world where anything is possible. Every movement, every step, allows me to express myself and connect with my deepest emotions.

Dance is more than just a physical activity for me. It is a true source of joy and happiness. She allows me to release all the tensions and me to connect to my body in a unique way. I feel alive(e), light(e) and totally present in the moment.

But what makes the dance even more extraordinary, it is his ability to bring people together. Whether in a group in a dance class or on a stage during a performance, the dance creates a special connection between the dancers and the public. We share emotions, we communicate without words, and it creates some magic moments together.

So, if you have not tried it yet, I encourage you to dive into this world of grace and movement. Regardless of your level or your age, the dance is an activity accessible to all. It will allow you to escape, to express yourself and to discover a new facet of yourself.

The dance unfolds, the joy in us, it makes us shine from the inside out. Then, put on your dancing shoes, let yourself be carried away by the music and let your body express !

Je rentre en contact avec le Ciel dans la danse de l’Air

admin2125 — Wed, 28 Jun 2023 08:20:00 +0000

In the dance of the Air, I am in contact with the Sky and the dreams. Explore this Item lightweight and powerful that carries our deployment in the world.

I dance in the Air, I breathe

The Air is the breath of life, the oxygen in the lungs. Connect to the Air to return to the essential : I'm alive as I breathe. And it is the air, filling my body allows me to move around and gives me the life force. The emphasis on the expansion of the chest, and swelling of the belly makes us aware of the close relationship between our breath and our awareness of our body and our feelings. L’ Air sublime work of integration by opening yet the sensory perceptions.

I throw bridges between Earth and Heaven

In the egyptian mythology, the Air (Shou) fills the space between the earth (Geb) and the sky (Nut) and prevents the sky from falling. Far from being intangible, it dilates the spaces in which it has penetrated, and brings stability. In connection with the Air, it spreads out and takes its place. The Air is also is a mediator, " amount prayers to heaven, walking down the light and heavenly orders up to humanity ". You can imagine then place it on an updraft, and rise gradually to a profound peace of the body and the spirit, in a feeling of communion with the world.

Air is the Element connected to the heart chakra. In fact, it symbolizes that connection to the larger than the self and the infinitely small, that is in the Universe. This state of communion allows access to the feelings of compassion and love for self and others.

I dance in the Air, I deploy my wings

It is also with the Air that touches the world of dreams, the impossible and the fantastic. The Air student, in fact, the concrete to its symbolic significance, and suggests the deployment of its wings and soaring high above terrestrial stresses. In freeing himself from the limits of concrete, we dare to give shape to what we saw from the foot of the mountain as impossible, impracticable, insurmountable. Perched at the top, the perspective is different and everything seems more simple, more fluid and more accessible.

How to dance in the Air ?

Open the chest and " spread her wings ", in the language of the body, means contracting and expanding the space between his shoulder blades... as one would do if you had actually wings in place of arms. The mobilization of this area of the body brings a feeling of freedom and generosity significantly soothing and ultimately leading to a form of fullness.

You've read an excerpt from the memory of Viviane, The power of the symbolic dance-therapy. Viviane teaches at the school Para La Salsa and was formed via the method Per Se Nota. You can find it on his account Instagram : @dance.with.the.fire

Danser le rythme, se connecter à la pulsation de l’Origine

admin2125 — Wed, 21 Jun 2023 08:00:00 +0000

I especially love dance to the rhythm of the beat, the beat, the boom boom of the music of african origin or techno music. It makes it easier for me to let go and be in contact with a movement more primary and intuitive, and it connects me to a feeling of trance. This is not a coincidence ! Dance has the power to reactivate movements genetically programmed, related to the primary functions of survival, of social relationships, communication, etc.

We are beings of rhythms

France Schott-Billmann explains that the human is a being of rhythms. This construction will begin as soon as the design of the fetus in the uterus, with the pulsation of the original to the heartbeat of the mother... The beat, the beat connects so at this rate, the original heartbeat. She comes to speak to a part of us also original, which echoes the genesis of our relationship to the world.

These vital rhythms – heart beat, the rhythm of the breath – transmitted by the beat of the drum and the beat of the music, connect the dancer directly to this vital energy, and primitive. And this energy spreads throughout the body. In fact, of course, we mark the rhythm with his hands, his feet, his head, his chest and her pelvis. It is as if the body was reacting naturally to the recall of this rhythm first.

On note également le pouvoir du balancement sur la pulsation. Il évoque cette fois le bercement du nourrisson par la mère, et procure une sensation de plénitude, d’abandon et d’union qui encourage au lâcher-prise et à la connexion à ce quelque chose d’originel. Célébrer l’origine fait remonter à la surface un imaginaire « primitif […] sous la forme d’une fête dansante-chantante ordonnée, ludique et poétique, célébration anthropologique qui revisite les sources humanisantes, et écologique qui médite le rapport à la nature ».

An exploration of the origins : the primitive

The dance of primitive built by Schott-Billmann takes its roots in the work of anthropological and artistic of Katherine Dunham. It is not restricted to the symbolic power of the pulse. On the contrary, it develops the contact with the primitive by symbolic gestures that will embody the union of man with the earth and the cosmos. Dance of the earth and the sky (we find the famous double direction), honoration of the four points of the compass.

And it is a time linked symbolically to these original elements that we will be able to summon the symbolic gestures and the archetypes that give meaning to our dance. It will involve, for example the representation of actions, interactions, animals, things... The connection to the heartbeat of the original wake up and the images present in our unconscious and unlocks our creativity, and our power of representation.

Je danse la Terre pour favoriser mon ancrage

admin2125 — Fri, 02 Jun 2023 16:00:00 +0000

The dance of the Earth evokes the report to the soil and to anchor. Explore this element that connects us to the roots, to the interiority reassuring and fertility and Mother Earth.

Dance to the Earth, to meet its roots

Look at our roots. The consciousness is directed to the feet and the contact with the ground. The root softens the notion of contact with the depths, because his role is going to look deep into the soil to bring them back to the trunk and leaves of the nutrients necessary for the development. It is a virtuous circle. She also invites to the perception of the ground as a safe space and allowing any time to return to the anchor and the concrete.

A session of dance therapy can be dizzying : it is therefore essential to propose key to return to the material for the students. The physical contact with the soil is a part of these safety devices. Moreover, to stimulate the touch through the thematic of the Earth promotes the feeling of anchor. Automassage, for example, allows you to play with the body as with a material that is malleable, clay, or clay. We brought a report playful touch.

Find a space of security and fertility in its Cave, inner

Down in the depths with the roots, it progressively comes into contact with the Cave, the protected area of our essence. The Cave is the place of intimacy, the secret place in which you take refuge and guarantees the security. The awareness session allows you to return at any time, if the experience is too intense or simply because one is tired. We may, in independence, retire in our space of homeland security if you feel the need. In the Cave sleeps also the Bear, the defender inside of our integrity.

In the Cave are also all the seeds of our resources, waiting to be planted and watered to germinate. We put ourselves in contact with our tools, our strengths and our dreams. We can thus initiate from the Cave to a dynamic ascent to break through the surface of the earth and unfold to the world. The Earth is a symbol of fertility, abundance and luxuriance : the contact between the depths and the outside world is permanent.

How to embody the dance of the Earth ?

At the body level, the energy is concentrated in the feet. There is an awareness on the body weight and the effect of gravity by movements of swinging. The legs are bent, the muscles of the thighs engaged. The upper body is relaxed, relaxed. The head follows the movement of the pendulum with the release of the nape of the neck. One hand close to the ground, and it brought up the energy from the soles of the feet to the legs, and then in the pelvis, spine, shoulder and arm to the tip of your fingers, until finally the root of the hair. The body deploys such a plant and just connect to the sky, to the sun, to the light. Because the plant derives its nutrients from the soil, but also in the light of the sun !

The Earth is, finally, an Element reminiscent of many images scent : the smell of the earth returned, of cut grass or the smell of flowers. It connects us to the proliferation of life and a feeling of abundance. It is an energy of quiet strength, deployment, powerful and confident, self-confidence and in its inner resources.

Se débarrasser du jugement en cours de danse

admin2125 — Wed, 22 Feb 2023 16:00:00 +0000

One of the main difficulties when we take a dance class, it's to face the judgment : that of the other (ah bon ? we'll come back to that...) but also and above all his own. How to emancipate themselves from the gaze of the other and be able to dance “like no one else is watching” ? How, especially, to get rid of his own judgment to dance in freedom and with pleasure ?

No, the other does look you are not

The first belief to be demolished, it is this : “everyone looks at me and is going to judge me”. If this may be the case in some areas of dance, built on the competition, this is not a reality in most of the dance classes. Just like you, the other students are taking courses to spend time, enjoy the music, connect to their body, and give free rein to their artistic bent, or for any other reason pleasant and enjoyable.

No one takes over to look at his neighbours of an evil eye ! It is quite probable that this severe judgment that you are paying others to be in reality... yours.

Not judging yourself : a program

“Okay, so what I need to do to evolve, this is the way I look at myself ?” Easier said than done, you say. It is true, but it is precisely this that we learn how to dance-therapy.

Carry a look that is soft and caring, this is a learning process. Our teachers accompany you on this path, in three different ways :

by encouraging you to connect to yourself : close your eyes, go to the meeting of your feelings... at this moment, what would think the other has much less importance.
helping you to deconstruct what you consider as “good,” “not well”: - all movements are fair and interesting !
in being guarantors of a framework of safety and kindness that invites you to soften your look.

Evolve in a secure and caring

We make it a point of honour to our spaces may be spaces of safety, autonomy, and evolution. This is why our teachers remind us at the beginning of each course of our basic principles :

Everyone comes here to discover and explore. The respect of each one is absolutely essential.
Each student is self-contained. You know better than anyone what is right for you : do you give permission to listen to you, respect your own limits.
We all move at a different pace. The progress of others is not a slap in the face, but rather a reminder of the wonderful diversity of people that will visit you every week !

In summary

The courses are collective : it is normal to look at what is happening in the other. But the difference is a wonderful source of human wealth. To get out of the judgment in the course of the dance, I suggest you answer these three questions at the end of your next course :

That is what I have learned from me during this session ?
What am I proud after this session ?
That is what others have inspired me during the session ?

Maybe you have already read phrases like "I leave my light, I am light..." ; and maybe you are-you said : "the light of course, but I also parts of shadow. Am I a horrible person ? "

The balance in each of the darkness and the light

From the point of view of mental health such as personal development, and hosting his dark parts and the knowledge is also essential that make up their inner light.

That means "welcome its dark parts" ? This is used to recognize the parts of self that are wounded, offended, to which we do not let the voice to the chapter because it operates in a society that asks us to be joyful and light continuously. This part of the self will, for example, a part of you that has lived a traumatic experience. If you store in the closet this facet of you who suffers, and is not heard, it is highly likely that she will express in spite of while you are so uncomfortable, even downright painful. Interpersonal relationships toxic, feelings of physical pain, the feeling of great sadness that you don't know the origin... These symptoms can be the sign of a suffering that is within you and which is for the moment ignored.

Travel through internal states

It is not, in dance therapy, exposing suddenly your injuries and force your consciousness to put the spotlight on these units painful to you. Quite to the contrary, all the work is done in a subtle way, and always keeping in touch with your light.

Light and shadow are two sides of the same coin. Dance, when you connect to your body and your powers of creativity, you can identify closely what is your light. And your light, it is your individuality, qualities that are unique to you, your strength and your power. Once equipped with these attributes of light, one can venture on the side of the shadows. Not to kill or to the " transform "... But rather to take them by the hand, and tell them that they are welcome in your inner realm.

This balancing game is a part of life. The chinese philosophy has beautifully represented through the symbol of Yin/Yang. Each of these polarity door in it a little of the other (a black dot in the white, a white dot in the black). It reminds us that the world is not black and white, or all white or all black. Not more than our inner world. Your shadows speak of you as much as your light, and deserve as much kindness and tenderness.
