Have you ever heard this one : "The Nile is not a River in Egypt". Wait... What? It IS a river in Egypt!!! ... Alright my bad, psychotherapist joke courtesy of Woody Allen, and it should have read "Denial is not a river in Egypt"... Makes sense now? Denial is a strong theme in the field of psychology, and it points at something deep that stops us from looking at what hurts. It usually revolves around something strongly at the foundations of our beliefs, something so deep that merely touching it would cause our entire being to shake. As a result, we usually have such strong reactions that it can leave others wondering what's up with us. Now we're not here to discuss who is and who is not in denial, but when it comes to shaking the foundations of our entire being, is there really anything deeper and more primal than our connection to our mother (or the lack thereof)? If things don't go so well, our childhood can leave us with a scar, which we discuss today in the 1st part of this conversation about Mother Wound. Enjoy.
This is Reality Check, where we discuss important topics and concepts that form the foundation of our lives, and yet need to be contemplated so that perspectives may open the way to fresh new takes and hopefully help us deal with that nagging feeling of being stuck. Facts matter for sure, but equally or even more importantly, we want to put all options on the table and relate openly about what we may have missed as a result of our unescapable biases and other horse blinders. This is a place where we revisit what we thought we understood or knew, in order to spark new growth.
As usual, please note that this is not a replacement for adequate treatment, so please get in touch with someone qualified to help you if you are struggling more than you should. This includes seeing a doctor for medical attention or seeking therapy for affective and mental health challenges.
