Shame v. Guilt

Spilling the Thera-Tea

Ever grapple with feelings of shame or guilt? It's an often misunderstood emotional terrain that we're excavating in our enlightening discussion. We're navigating the key differences between these two emotions and their significant impact on self-perception and self-esteem. We unravel the power of guilt as a moral anchor, and reveal the potentially devastating impact of toxic shame.
As we delve deeper, we focus on the critical aspect of managing toxic shame. Discover how mindfulness can aid us in challenging our shame-based thoughts and cultivating healthier thinking habits. We emphasize the importance of fostering a support network, and opening up to a friend, partner, or mental health professional about shame and the journey to overcome unprocessed trauma.
