I just wanted to thank you for posting this thread Trailrunner. It has had me thinking about my own mother wound and today in therapy I was surprised to find myself "sitting in on" a part of us telling her story about her mother wound to the therapist. It was painful and the therapist heard her and afterwards she felt so much lighter.
We had to go to the grocery store to get something for dinner and somehow we ended up with several bags full of treats and candy. I think that child in us felt like celebrating. It was helpful to do some work around this topic. So thank you!
