Welcome to season 5 episode 4 where this season we are bringing you personal stories and deep teaching into Curt’s book, The Soul of Shame). This week we are looking at chapter 3, “Joy, Shame and the Brain”.
We were made for joy.
The bible and our greatest literature attest to this. But not only this: research in attachment reflects that joyful human relationships are the key to our well-being.
No wonder, then, that shame targets our experience of joy as its first priority in disintegrating us, disconnecting us from ourselves and each other.
This week we examine why joy is so important to practice—yep, you read that right: practice—and how shame will do anything it can to rob us of as much of it as it can.
