In life, some patterns of change are created by our force, our power moving it forward and some patterns of change are created because they simply can't go on anymore.
Sometimes we need UnShame your Anger, Speak your Truth and Unearth your Power and other times we need to tap into the energy of Death, Deadliness and Renewal.
Join us this summer for two TRANSFORMATIVE master classes with David Bedrick.
MASTER CLASS ONE:
ANGER, TRUTH & POWER
UnShame your Anger, Speak your Truth and Unearth your Power
Most people meet anger with a shaming attitude.
In this class your anger will be honored - not treated it as a secondary emotion, but instead as a POWER and a seed that, once taken root, can open doors, erect boundaries, speak truths to power, and give support to life long agendas of relationship with self, with others, and your calling to live a purposeful and authentic life life.
The class recording is now available for instant access.
In our class we will:
Explore and talk about anger— What’s it like? What do you know about it? What are the somatic experiences of what people call anger? What does anger sound like and how can it be expressed in sounds and in words?
Learn about the shaming witness— What is against anger? Why not be angry? Who says you shouldn’t be angry and to allow the angry energy to speak back to that? How can we use somatic experiences to speak back to the internalized shaming witness?
Work with the radical soma - not just the somatic feeling exprience but also movement and voice. Why? Because anger moves through you and it’s very hard to feel our anger when we’ve been taught to hide it, to suppress it in a way that our body isn’t free to move with it.
Be guided through exercises to tap into, feel, move and express your anger AND learn how to integrate this into your life.
MASTER CLASS TWO:
DYING TO BE BORN:
Death, Deadliness & Renewal
If I asked you now, “Do you know you're going to die?” You would say yes.
But then if I asked, “Do you act like you're going to die soon?” Most would say no.
We live our lives like we have many years left, infinite time for all of the plans and goals we have for ourselves. There’s nothing wrong with that BUT the intimate sense of our mortality proceeds differently.
Change can come through action and intention; AND change can come by letting go, by “DYING."
Would you be open to taking this journey with me – learning to die and integrate aspects of your own ‘deadliness’?
The class recording is now available for instant access.
In this class we will:
Die. Ok, I don’t mean literally die. BUT, You will actually be led into the somatic experience of being dead. This can be done; I’ve done it 100’s of times, including with people who are literally near the end of their life. AND, don’t worry, I’ll make sure you come out of it :-)
Discover your deadliness: You’ll make contact with the energy, the spirit, that could kill you. It’s a shamanic ally. And that will allow you to build a relationship with that source and even integrate it.
Discuss issues of suicide, hopelessness, chronic difficulties that don’t change, depression, and changing life long patterns.
And OF COURSE, as always, you will get a chance to watch David do his magic by facilitating indivduals, modeling his Unshaming
What Past Students Are Saying…
“David Bedrick is a gentle warrior. His methodology is phenomenal. The most kind, soft, powerful vehicle I’ve ever encountered to heal trauma and release shame. I wish everyone would adopt this way of helping people through pain. Known and unknown.”

“I’m savouring every moment of being in the program, and slowly feeling those deep internalised beliefs and voices shift.
This is life- changing work and the reverberations are enormous. Thank you for sharing your life’s work and experience with us ❤️”
“David, this experience has been shifting bedrock level things inside me in ways I can sense are only just opening. It’s beautiful!
I feel like I’m birthing a new me. And I’ve shared ideas and the exercises with my mom who was abused as a child and she’s finding healing she’s never felt 😭 Thank you for these gifts!”

MEET YOUR FACILITATOR:
David Bedrick, J.D., Dipl. PW, is the founder of the UnShaming Way — a depth-psychology approach built on one conviction: your symptoms, struggles, and survival strategies carry intelligence, not pathology. He is the author of five books, including The Unshaming Way (North Atlantic Books), endorsed by Gabor Maté, MD. He has trained hundreds of clinicians and taught thousands of individuals. Before psychology, he practiced law; before law, he survived the home that taught him everything the books later confirmed. That is his deepest credential: he knows both harms — the violence, and the denial of it — from the inside. His work has appeared in Psychology Today and reaches hundreds of thousands of readers through his essays on trauma, shame, and the witness.
