The Mother Wound: A PsychoSpiritual Healing Guide | TCM #136 (Part 1)

The mother wound is one of the deepest wounds we can have. Having a mother wound can affect your self-esteem, your relationships, your relationship with your body, food, sexuality, how you approach life and almost every factor of life. We discuss the signs that you have a mother wound, how it shows up psychologically and spiritually, what we need from our mother, what it means to have a good enough mother, common core wounds of the mother archetype, and, most importantly, how to heal the mother wound psychologically and spiritually, including exercises to do that. In the second hour, we will cover how we reenact the mother wound in relationships, how the mother wound shows up in popular culture (left and right), how overly political correctness and censorship relate to the "devouring mother" archetype, and how the red-pill manosphere movement is related to anima projection and the mother wound. We discuss the anima (the inner feminine) in men, how it affects men's relationships with women and who they attract and are attracted to, how to confront the shadow of your mother within you, and much more.
