Carl Jung was well known for his work on bridging psychology and spirituality. His split from Sigmund Freud was because Jung saw the unconscious as a spiritual place full of powerful forces beyond just neurosis. 

 

Jung coined the term “the Shadow” as a metaphor for all that is hidden from our awareness - this can be dark or golden light tendencies. Shadow work is the active state of integrating every aspects of who we are so that we may become all that we are meant to be.
