Vasu Hancock joins the podcast again for another conversation on how our wounding impacts and distorts how we see the world and experience intimate (including sexual) relationships. Today's conversation pivots around the Mystified Child Wound, how we can move from the mystified to the mystical. Vasu outlines various mystified aspects -- hopeful, expectation, hopeless, mistrust, controlling; which are wound adaptations.
Vasu first joined Dare to Listen to share about the Abandonment Wound. Vasu and Nameh explore..
the characteristics of communal versus individual focusing cultures
how the shift to industrialization shifted us
how our mystical self is our true nature
how we can get lost in the suffering
how the journey into our pain can bring us to wholeness
how parents, when in their mystified adult self, unknowingly imprint their wounding to their children
grieving what needs have not been met
defining psychic space
clarifying how we project parts of ourselves onto others
Vasu shares her love of working in groups; specifically when groups come together there's a building of support and intimate depth that offers another way to know ourselves.
