Unravelling Shame

Join Siân Williams, Michael Ryan and Saoró in September for a series of explorations on the topic of unravelling shame.

In this period between Lughnasadh and Samhain as we move from the light towards the darker half of the year, we invite you to join us to shine the light together into the darkness of the shame that we each carry.

I started my journey with cacao in 2020. My journey brought me to Galway by packing up and just leaving. Galway is medicine to me and it's where I would go to escape for breaks until I knew I had to be there in order to survive.

Read the powerful new piece “Shaking off Shame: 5 Ways to Shed Shame” by Yvonne Doherty  @daretolivecoaching as part of our Unravelling Shame series

Yvonne talks about her personal experience of shame and also shares how 5 ways can help us unravel the shame that we carry

“Shame stifled my expression, perpetuated the anxiety I was feeling and made sure that I would not gain any confidence in myself. But as someone who highly values expression, as well as authenticity, growth, and freedom, I eventually realised I couldn’t allow shame’s hold to continue keeping me stuck. On my healing journey, I started questioning the shame, learning about its roots and committed to do what I could to melt it away…

Here’s what helped me most:
1. Name it to Tame it
2. Embrace Vulnerability	
3. Practice Self-compassion 
4. Practice Self-Forgiveness
5. Practice Empathy

…Navigating shame can be a challenge as we unravel the many layers of it buried within us, but it can be done. Like all of our emotions, it carries a signal and message and points us towards the places within that may be lacking our compassion, acceptance and empathy. It calls us into deeper wholeness, inviting us to meet the parts of ourselves that need us most.“

**new poem on Saoró**

Read a new poem “Tender Around the Eyes” by Kieran Coogan  @kieran.coogan as part of our Unravelling Shame series… 

I was born with tender eyes
That strained to see the blackboard
and a voice box that never ran smooth
‘Take your time’ teacher said
But I was always out of breath
When it was my turn to recite

I grew tall
too quickly
Almost as quick as my inferiority.
No amount of sloping and flat shoes
Could hide
my head above the parapet
Until
one day
I called the naked Emperor out
I caught the flash of the kingfisher
Fish in mouth
My eyes -clear and focused
On the next breath
I began my recitation
I looked down
At my slack jawed tormentors
My own words pouring forth and
Standing in front of them
I could see for miles and miles.
