Healing of shame

Shame is the most complex emotional suffering one experiences in a lifetime. Every dimension of one’s life from relationships to one’s professional identity and being a part of one’s social reality can be influenced by shame and yet it remains unknown to many among us. Shame is the intense feeling of undeservingness to be loved and to exist. To begin with, the workshop intends to explain healing as a change which needs to transpire in one with the ultimate goal being to outline how we can bring about a change when one is consumed by shame. We will delve into the specific ways shame manifests across different layers of consciousness, and discuss targeted interventions that can address shame at each layer.

The workshop is hosted by Dr. Nimesh and Dr. Gokul, both practicing psychologists based in Bangalore.
