Description
Do you sometimes notice that you have feelings or impulses that you believe are not acceptable? Do you turn away from yourself or abandon yourself when you make mistakes or don’t have the level of mastery that you long for? Are there parts of yourself that you keep hidden so that you will be loved? These experiences are often grouped together under the name, “the shadow self.” In neuroscience, these experiences arise from conflicts between the verbal, conscious cortex and the very non-verbal, non-conscious brain parts that hold drives and habits: the amygdala, the basal ganglia and the brainstem. In this 85-minute webinar with Sarah Peyton, we will meet the shadow self with the humility and gallows humor that allow for integration and acceptance. Facilitators will gain more ease with their own and their clients’ shadow selves.

Please Note:
- Your tuition payment is non-refundable (but it is transferable).
- This course will be recorded for those who want to learn asynchronously for some or all sessions.
- This work is not therapy and is not a substitute for therapy. If you have a sense that you would be destabilized by yourself or others speaking about difficult events, then this course may not be for you. While we hope that the processes and information that we share can be of use in your journey, we do not have the resources to support extreme psychological difficulties.
