DEPTH Work: A Holistic Mental Health Podcast

38. Working with Core Emotional Wounds: An Intimate Process for Getting Unstuck


Listen Later

Recently, as I've been caring for a sick relative in his death process, an old familiar feeling arose for me - the fear and pain of abandonment through loss. As a child of neglect and a trauma survivor, I consider abandonment to be my particular "core wound," a familiar pain or pattern from usually our early years, that arises repeatedly in life in order to be healed. Life gives us many opportunities to work with core wounds, and we can choose to take ourselves through the journey into the underbelly if we want to. In this episode, I take you through my personal intimate process of working with a core wound, and coming to greater acceptance and appreciation of these previously unintegrated parts.


Also in this episode:

  • examples of core emotional wounds & how to identify a core wound
  • how to know when a core wound is being activated
  • dealing with abandonment wounds from childhood neglect
  • what to do when you feel stuck or not ready to let go of an emotional wound
  • how to deal with self-betrayal and forgiveness
