Andean Paqos, or shaman healers, believe that issues such as lack of energy, Toxic Shame, anxiety, relationship problems, or addiction are symptoms of imbalance caused by the loss of energy or soul, or by carrying heavy energies.
By reconnecting with innate wisdom and natural sacred spirits, individuals can access their natural sources of power and divine connection.
Authentic Paqo shamans maintain harmony within and around the person by adhering to Andean principles, which are based on the observation and interaction with sacred nature.
Toxic Shame
It influences your self-worth, relationships, and overall sense of peace and happiness, often manifesting as self-criticism, perfectionism, fear of judgment, chronic self-doubt, and difficulty forming healthy relationships.
Signs of toxic shame may include:
- A persistent sense of unworthiness.
- Self-criticism and excessive self-blame.
- Chronic fear of judgment or rejection.
- Deep-seated beliefs of being fundamentally flawed.
- Intense feelings of guilt, embarrassment, and humiliation.
- Constant comparisons to others.
- Feelings of inferiority and inadequacy.
- Tendency to isolate due to fear of exposure or vulnerability.
- Perfectionism and people-pleasing mentality.
- Difficulty setting boundaries and advocating for personal needs.
Another causes of Toxic Shame:
- Societal expectations
- Cultural norms
- Unrealistic standards can also contribute to feelings of inadequacy and self-blame.
Healing toxic shame involves understanding its complex origins and addressing both mental and energetic aspects. Shamanic healing approaches toxic shame holistically, aiming to track and heal its root causes.
This process supports profound personal growth, self-acceptance, and the restoration of a healthy self-image.
