Shame

Abstract

Dr. Brene Brown draws upon more than twelve years of investigation to reveal how we can disarm the influence of shame to cultivate a life of greater courage, joy, and love. She invites you to explore: 1. The differences and similarities between the experience of shame for men and women; 2. Guilt vs. shame - why one helps us grow, while the other keeps us small; 3. The four elements of shame resilience - identifying our triggers, practicing critical awareness, sharing our story, and speaking honestly; 4. Empathy as the primary antidote to shame.

Chronic Pain

Abstract

We know that practicing mindfulness in everyday life can help us reduce stress and cultivate deep, embodied well-being, but what about its effects on physical and emotional pain, especially when it seems overwhelming or unrelenting? Mindfulness Meditation for Pain Relief is a soothing program with guided meditations and teachings. It opens with an overview of seven fundamental attitudes we can develop to cultivate mindfulness in relationship to chronic pain and its incessant challenges, and follows with concepts and practices including: mindful breathing, working with intense sensations, befriending thoughts and emotions, finding refuge in awareness, and bringing mindfulness into every life.
