It is easy to become so focused on healing that we lose sight of our larger Heroine's Journeys. Is healing the Mother Wound the completion? These are my thoughts on healing in the larger arc of the Journey of our Souls, and a beautiful Jewish Women's holiday that courageously and joyfully helps us move forward after seasons of grief and healing.

Is there a link between healing the Mother Wound and your marriage? Yes! If you have an unhealed Mother Wound, it is very likely that this will be expressed in your marriage. In this post I share 4 Wisdom Lessons my Beloved and I have learned through 30 years of loving connection in our marriage. These insights and lessons go beyond conventional self-help books, or professional knowledge.

They are Wisdom that show clearly why healing the Mother Wound is the healing that changes everything, and the doorway to soul-satisfying love and partnership in your marriage.

Attuning to the Wheel of the Year is a beautiful, natural way to live in sync and harmony with nature’s rhythms, and to draw down the seasonal energies that are meant to support you in living well through out your life. There are seasons in the annual turning of the Wheel that are especially potent for new beginnings, especially when you hunger for healing and renewal.

Imbolc is one of those seasons. As winter is beginning to end, and the earliest signs of spring are beginning to show, we can use this season prior to the Spring Equinox for self-reflection and preparation, to begin a season of healing your Mother Wound, well.

Learn about this time-honored season, and how you can use it well. Learn also about the Celtic goddess who can be a powerful archetypal source of inspiration, support and strength, championing you on, on your Heroine’s Journey.

Part II in the Healing Your Mother Wound Series.

The Mother Wound is an injury and sorrow perhaps unlike any other.  It’s private and deep; many women describe it as an emptiness and aching in their heart they have felt their entire lives.  It’s an injury that hurts like complicated grief that comes from carrying an unknown, hidden burden all by yourself.  It’s been described as yearning for a “certain quality of love – a nurturing, safe inspiring love – the kind of love we think of as maternal love.”1   

It’s an unconditional love that no friendship, romantic love or other kind of love can replace.

Healing your Mother Wound is the qualitative healing that many women seek to experience for years, even decades, even without knowing what it is that they need. All other personal and relationship healing and growth ties into this healing of our hearts, leading us to finally be prepared for it, often in our mid to late forties and beyond.

I’ve taught for years, that healing your inner child will transform your life in all areas of your life. Healing your Mother Wound is the crucial heart of this healing for countless numbers of women. This post introduces my holistic, depth-healing approach to healing your Mother Wound.

Healing your heart of this injury is the most deeply liberating and joy-filling personal work you may ever achieve in your life. It will transform your life, and transform your relationships with your spouse, children and grandchildren, and ultimately transform the legacy of your Mother Line.
