For the Love of Shame

This course allows you to slowly and gently have peace with your most shameful thoughts. By making the hidden visible, we will discover their true nature and their true power. Only when we are able to meet them with love, compassion and understanding, can they loosen their grip.

"I entered this course with no real expectation of change (having worked on this issue for many years)... but during this course, something clicked. There was a realization that beneath the shame & judgment of myself, there was an innocence of intention. I was able to offer compassion to that part of myself and say, "It's not your fault." Learning to accept this part of myself is a completely novel concept as I've always just fought it- but fighting it never worked. Fighting was not helpful because fighting isn't healing. I leave this course with a renewed sense of self-acceptance and self-love."

“If you are looking for the real deal for inner freedom, then give yourself the gift of this course. This course will give you everything you need to journey inwards to your beautiful self in the gift of safety. You will travel from shameful to shameless and if you are open to it, you will see with your mind’s eye what the gift of shame has to offer you”
~ previous participant

“The energy I put into hiding shame throughout my life was phenomenal and played out in many other areas of my life as stress, tension, and anxiety. I know this now because with the release of shame, I experience peace instead of anxiety, trust instead of stress and compassion instead of tension.”
