Professional webinar exploring shame responses using the Memory Re-Solution® framework to understand how earlier experiences organise identity-related meaning and influence self-perception, behaviour and emotional responses.
Shame is often misunderstood as guilt, insecurity, or low confidence.
Yet shame operates differently. It can persist independently of behaviour or circumstance and may influence how safe it feels to be visible, successful, or fully expressed.
This Memory Re-Solution® orientation workshop explores why persistent shame can remain active even when there is no present cause — and why affirmation, confidence-building, or reassurance rarely resolve it.
The session introduces a structural explanation for how shame becomes organised at identity level, and what changes when that organisation updates.
This is a professional exploration workshop and is not a therapeutic group, personal development session, or clinical intervention.
This workshop is intended for:
It assumes professional training and is not designed for a general audience.
To maintain clarity and appropriate boundaries, this workshop is:
No personal disclosure is required, and participants are not expected to work on their own material.
This working with persistent shame workshop provides a structured professional exploration of how shame patterns are commonly organised and why they can persist despite insight, reflection, or regulation strategies.
Topics explored include:
The focus is on understanding what changes when resolution occurs, rather than how to perform the process.
Application contexts referenced
While this workshop uses anger as the primary lens, reference may also be made to other common organising patterns, including anxiety, fear, sadness, and guilt.
These references are used to illustrate how different patterns are organised, rather than to provide topic-specific training.
Format, duration & fee
This workshop forms part of a wider series exploring common patterns of experience through a Memory Re-Solution® lens.
Attendance does not confer accreditation, certification, or permission to practise. Where further training or registration may be appropriate, this will be discussed separately.
This working with anger workshop builds on themes introduced in the article “When Shame Persists Even Without a Current Reason” in our Patterns & Experience Learning zone.
For those interested in the wider training background from which this work has emerged, Memory Re-Solution® has its roots in NLP and may be of particular interest to practitioners trained through Congruent NLP. For those seeking a broader, non-therapeutic and facilitator-led approach to understanding patterns of experience and change, the CongruentMind framework offers an alternative orientation grounded in alignment, resilience, and professional development rather than technique-based intervention.
Paul McGowran is the current rights holder of the Memory Re-Solution™ methodology and is actively developing the process further. His work is focused on integrating the approach into the CongruentMind framework, extending its application beyond individual change work into leadership and organisational development contexts. If the listed webinar date is unsuitable, additional sessions may be available via the Memory Re-Solution® events page.
