Life is layered healing.
You still ache from having a mother who couldn’t love you, or a father that wounded you.
Mainstream self-help says healing is just mindset or self-care. But if you grew up without enough love, love isn’t that simple. You might question what love really means — and even who you are supposed to love. When you became a parent, the old ache didn’t disappear — it reawakened. Your body drifts into survival mode: overthinking, shutting down, or disconnecting. You worry your child will have to earn love like you did.
Self-love is often taunted as both the solution and the problem.
Today’s self-love culture often feels like it’s just about positive thinking or “treating yourself.” But for mother wound survivors, true healing needs to reach every layer of being. It’s a return to wholeness — body, breath, mind, heart, and spirit.
But your fear isn’t rooted in your inability to love yourself — its what you believe about Love.
