Becoming Conscious: Finding Freedom from Patriarchal Conditioning

Terms and Conditions

Please read this carefully. Buy participating in Becoming Conscious, you agree with the terms & conditions outlined below.

Becoming Conscious

The course will be run by Dr Rebekah Shallcross in the capacity of Facilitator.

Becoming conscious will consist of 1 weekly pre-recorded education video and 1 live group session.  It is not a group therapy programme.  It is not a substitute for therapy or a replacement for qualified mental health care and is intended for participants in an emotionally resourced place in their lives. If participants feel that their mood is very up and down, or they are worried about their ability to keep themselves safe, or are having thoughts about harming someone else, they should seek urgent care from their GP or another health care professional.  Similarly, the course is intended for those who are in safe environments and relationships in their life. If you are worried about your safety in terms of domestic violence or abuse, including controlling behaviour, please seek support from your GP or another trusted health professional.
