  Self-Compassion for Shame, with Chris Germer (April 2026)

April 25 @ 11:00 am - 2:15 pm CDT
Self-Compassion for Shame, with Chris Germer (April 2026)
Shame can occur when we feel judged by others or when we judge ourselves. It can happen when we do something wrong and when we’re entirely innocent of wrongdoing. Whenever we feel bad about ourselves, for whatever reason, there is a touch of shame.
Shame makes us go small, go silent, or go away. Ironically, shame itself is not the problem. The problem is that there is often no one home to work with shame.
Self-compassion is the antidote to shame. In this 3-hour workshop, we’ll take a unique, non-pathological look at shame through the eyes of self-compassion.
After learning about the theory and research on shame, you will have an opportunity to explore the personal and cultural causes of shame in your own life within the context of self-compassion, then to resource yourself in the midst of shame as it arises in the moment.
At the completion of this activity, participants will:
1. Explain the theory and research on shame and self-compassion.
2. Describe how self-compassion is an antidote to shame - the 3 paradoxes of shame.
3. Identify individual childhood and cultural disconnections that lead to shame.
4. Apply new self-compassion practices to relieve the burden of shame in daily life.
  Who can benefit from this workshop? This workshop is open to anyone interested in learning more about shame and self-compassion. It is an introductory workshop that starts the conversation on shame. It is important to note that it is a resource-building workshop rather than actual psychotherapy. This course is also open to professionals, such as psychotherapists, mindfulness teachers, and educators, who wish to bring fresh insights and skills for working with shame into their work activities.
CE credits are available; see below for more information.
