Existential Kink
Published in 2020, Existential Kink: Unmask Your Shadow and Embrace Your Power introduces Lovewell's meditation methodology known as "existential kink". Existential Kink uses the Jungian idea of the shadow to encourage introspection on repressed dark parts of the self[1] and challenges the individual to consider how they might find pleasure in seemingly undesirable circumstances.[3]
Existential Kink received positive reviews from the New Age crowd,[4][5] as well as broader self help audiences.[6] The book focuses on the role of power[7] and fear, encouraging a practice called the "Deepest Fear Inventory" where participants record and state internalized negative assumptions about their desires to help dissipate them.[8] Lovewell's approach of examining the unconscious assumptions in life has helped readers struggling with self sabotage.[9] Examining pleasure gained from discomfort has been found to be a useful therapeutic tool.[10] Lovewell's approach removes the power of the shadow by acting without guilt or shame.[2]
Magical Work
Lovewell is the founder of the online magazine, Witch.[11] She also runs Electric Yes, an online community teaching occultism and Lovewell's "existential kink" meditation methodology.[12] Since 2022, Lovewell has hosted an in-person program called Sleep Over Mystery School, an immersive experience styled after Greco-Roman mysteries.[13]
