About

Shame makes us hide, while guilt makes us mentally return to our actions. Psychologist Anna Belyaeva will help to understand why these feelings arise, what role they play in relationships and society, and how to stop being governed by them while maintaining the ability to notice mistakes, take responsibility for our decisions, and support closeness. An awkward phrase, refusal, mistake, or someone else's disapproval can linger in memory for a long time. A person replays the incident, harshly evaluates themselves, and tries to avoid similar situations. In the seminar, participants will learn to distinguish these states and understand what message lies behind each of them. Psychologist and business coach Anna Belyaeva will explain where complex social emotions come from and why they are necessary for people. A separate topic will be the influence of these feelings on relationships. Out of fear of appearing bad, a person may justify themselves, attack first, agree against their will, or avoid conversation. Participants will explore why such reactions increase distance and how to transition from painful self-evaluation to a specific question: what happened, what am I truly responsible for, and what can I do now.
