Pranic Healing for Shame

Wow. This past week, the dark shadows of shame have crawled out of the corners of my psyche into broad daylight. It’s cool. I’m grateful to finally see it so I can address it and practice deeper levels of self-compassion and self-love.

From the newly published Atlas of the Heart, Brene Brown shares that “shame is the intensely painful feeling or experience of believing that we are flawed and therefore unworthy of love, belonging and connection.”

She writes that it’s a feeling about your own inherent worthiness, not just about an action or choice you made. We all have it and it pushes us into silence and secrecy, out of which the shame multiplies and slowly eats away at us.

To help melt it away, I’ll share my newly discovered shame with you.

I started reading Quiet by Susan Cain (it came out ten years ago but I finally got to it!) and wow, did it open my eyes to the shame I have for being an introvert in an extroverted society. From loving being alone to naturally being more quiet to feeling drained and overwhelmed in bigger social situations, I’ve always kept these tendencies guarded and hidden in shame. 

Also, in the past week my financial situation has drastically changed and I need to make more money. More than what my new business can cover right now. I’ve been able to scape by and stay optimistic up until this point. But I knew if something blew up financially, I wouldn’t be able to cover it. Yet I ignored that reality and here I am, in a financial pickle and catching myself berate myself with the occasional “so stuuuuupid!”

To start making more money now, I’ve chosen to wait tables again and man, I didn’t realize how much shame I’ve carried from being a server for over a decade. I grew up in a middle class family that prized education and more esteemed professions in subtle ways. I mean, I went to an expensive private school which literally prepares you to go to an ivy league college to work in an elite profession (which isn’t a bad thing if that fits your personality and what you want to do). 

I realized that with each scenario, I had a choice- do I continue to feel shame about myself or can I choose a more compassionate, gentle and frankly, realistic perspective?

So, I chose to try to be proud of my introversion. After all, it makes me a fantastic listener, come up with wildly creative, original ideas and understand the world on a very personal, deep level within my own mind.

I chose to be compassionate about my financial faux-pas. It’s taught me to take money seriously. Now you can watch me manifest massive abundance, invest and get a sick property with my partner within the next ten years.

I chose to be proud of my side-job and serve people with integrity. I’m grateful to be earning at least $40 an hour at a job where I’m pretty darn good at making people happy.

To accompany my mental shifts, I’ll also be doing some Pranic Healing on myself to remove my deeper levels of shame. Shame exists as an energetic frequency and if we possess it, it will be present within our energy system (hint– most people have it). 

In Pranic Healing, negative thoughts and emotions can be removed layer by layer energetically. To replace it, positive energetic frequencies are channeled into your energy system. From the start to the end of a typical session, clients typically feel quite different mentally, emotionally and physically. Click here to learn about Suzie’s healing services.

In this short Pranic Healing video, I’ll channel healing energy to help remove shame from your energy system. It’s only a taster– a one-on-one session goes much deeper and is more thorough for better and longer results. However, this healing video can help take some of your load off.

To receive the healing energy, lay down in a comfortable place and stay connected to the video energetically. The more you surrender yourself to it with an open mind and heart, the more effective it will be.

During receiving, I’ll ask that you practice looking at your shame with curiosity– is it something that you need to feel bad about? Does it make you an inherently worthy person?

After you logically receive the answer, practice showering yourself with compassionate, loving and gentle thoughts and feelings towards yourself. Examples include I didn’t know enough information then and now I do or I choose to love myself for who I naturally am or So many other people have felt this way so I’m not alone.

You have nothing to feel shameful about. You don’t need to be suffering and secretly carrying the heaviness of shame. We’re all imperfect, we’re all learning and we’re all endowed with natural, unique qualities that don’t fit into the mainstream culture. 

Now I’d love to hear from you in the comments below: What shame are you struggling with that you seek healing for in this video?

Sending you love, light and letting you know that you aren’t alone! :)
