Healing Shame for Women
We all have shame but because shame itself is experienced as shameful, we rarely talk about it. We do our best to pretend, cover up, stay busy, avoid, but too often it only gets worse.
Healing Shame (Lyon/Rubin Method®) is a targeted way or working with the four physiological responses to shame: Attack Self, Attack Other, Deny and Withdraw. It provides a safe, small-group environment designed to help:
- Anyone struggling to feel good about herself
- Anyone who grew up in a home with addiction/mental illness,
- Anyone who can identify shaming/traumatic events in her history
- Anyone in long term recovery
- Anyone whose grief or anger feels frozen
- Anyone who feels hopeless or unlovable
Through education, skills-building and gentle group process, members will start to identify shame, learn the difference between healthy shame and toxic shame, develop resilience and self-compassion, discover ways to connect with others to receive the support that melts the shame freeze, and gain clarity around whose shame they are carrying and how to give it back.
