Intensive Session: Healing Toxic Shame in Yourself and Others
SESSION INFO
Sunday, January 5, 2020
1:00 PM - 5:00 PM
Session Type: Intensive
Shame as a healthy human emotion can be transformed into a state of being. As a state of being shame takes over one’s whole identity, which becomes toxic and dehumanizing. Toxic shame essentially the “murdering of the soul.” Recent research has found that pervasive, toxic shame can manifest into personality disorders in adulthood. In this session we will bring shame out of hiding by examining its many faces and exposing its origins and major cover-ups. We will discuss why the healing of toxic shame is critical for therapeutic and restorative interventions with offenders and victims of crime. In addition, participants will learn techniques for reducing toxic shame they can use themselves or with individuals they are working with.
