SHAME, THE ‘S’ WORD
Shame is something that is not talked about much in our society in the true sense of the word. We use language like ‘Shame on you’ when someone does something ‘bad’ and e.g. in South Africa ‘Ag shame’ is meant as ‘Poor you’, as in pitying someone.
Seemingly a taboo subject in many ways, I hope that this article will help shine some light on what shame is, where it comes from, how to identify it and most importantly, effective ways of healing it.
If you’re wondering if shame can be healed then, quoting Leo Buscaglia totally out of context, ‘Yes you can!’
Whether you work with people that experience shame or you are working through your own, the main purpose of this article is to convey the message that with appropriate awareness and skill and using energy psychology techniques, even toxic shame can be lifted to allow people to freely express themselves and their creativity.
How do I know? Because I’ve done it and I’ve helped clients to do it. Everything I present in this document is based on my own experience except where indicated otherwise. Shame has played a significant part in my life thus far and despite having shifted metaphorical tons of it, it is something that I remain passionate and vigilant about as it still trips me up and shuts me down from time to time.
This document is based on a presentation I did at the EFT Gathering at Ilkley in January 2010 and as such the intended audience is EFT and other practitioners. I have taken the liberty of adding information to this document that did not fit into the allotted time frame for the presentation.
Please use and distribute the information in this document freely as long as you do so in context; forward any feedback, comments or questions to info@deepliving.com.

Many thanks and safe travels,
