the mother wound: sacred scars as a portal to healing

This episode was a labor of love – mother pun very much intended. That’s the only funny part of what we’re discussing here because the Mother Wound is no laughing matter. The exploration and excavation of the abandonment, grief, and pain underneath the festering Mother Wound are necessary to finally free us of the chains of the past. If you’ve ever struggled to understand the mother wound, wondered how to spot signs of the mother wound, or wanted to explore the impact the Mother Wound has had on your relationships as an adult, this episode will help you move toward a place of deeper awareness and healing, even if it’s just dipping your toes in. TIME STAMPS:PART 1 - WHAT IS THE MOTHER WOUND? 02:00 – 10:17: Introduction + Mollie’s initial thoughts on the Mother Wound10:23 – 54:49: Mother Wound (full concept exploration via the work of Bethany Webster)PART 2 – AGE REGRESSION AND RE-PARENTING TASKS FOR THE MOTHER WOUND 54:51 – 58:40: Healing segment introduction + how to make the most out of the exercises and visualizations59:00 – 1:09:20: Tuning into the meditative state (accessing the Mother Wound) [words by philosopher Alan Watts)01:09:21 – 01:13:40: Re-parenting tasks for the Vulnerable Child01:13:45 – 01:29:07: Inner Infant age regression PART 3 – HEALING THE MOTHER WOUND01:29:13 – 01:33:03: The Divine Mother in Myth - Exploring Demeter and Persephone01:33:05 – 1:58:08: Healing the Mother Wound using the power of Myth, mysticism, symbolism, archetypes of the subconscious, and Philosophy (The Modern Hero’s Journey)RESOURCES MENTIONED:★ https://www.bethanywebster.com/ [download her free mother wound healing pdf]★Article: “You are more myth than science” by Dr. Mia Hetenyi★ Book: Homecoming: Reclaiming and Championing Your Inner Child by john bradshaw Enjoyed this episode?
