Episode: S1 Ep151: Episode 151 - Trauma Bonding
Description:
We all do it, and most of it is unconscious. We "seek" out relationships - friendships and love relationships - that mirror unresolved ones from childhood. Sometimes people treat us with neglect, abuse, shaming, gaslighting, judgement. Sometimes they are overidentified with us, enmeshed, codependent. Whatever we are used to (but also were hurt by) tends to be what we unconsciously seek in order to try and "do it right" this time. This process is one that can rule us until we wake up to it. Today is a day to take a closer look. Sending much love to you...
