Has your relationship with your body kept you from embracing all that you are capable of?

As women, we receive the message that our bodies are shameful and even dangerous at a young age. We are taught not to trust our bodies and to tame them to others’ expectations.

In today’s episode, I share with you the name I’ve created for this experience: 

The Sacred Body Wound

Almost every woman carries the Sacred Body Wound, and it impacts the way we treat ourselves and interact with the world.

Do you struggle with identifying and processing emotions and feelings?

Do you feel ashamed of your body?

Do you battle with an eating disorder or otherwise self-harm?

Do you avoid exploring your sexuality, or hyper-focus on diets and weight loss?

These are examples of the Sacred Body Wound at work, and it affects each woman differently. 

Regardless of how this wound manifests in your life, its primary goal is to make you forget how sacred, miraculous, and wondrous your body is. 

Combatting this wound plays a vital part in our paths toward embodied healing and self-liberation. And giving a name to this wound is the first step toward winning that battle. 

Join me in today’s episode to learn more about The Sacred Body Wound and how to begin to heal it in your life.
