Discovering the Inner Mother: A Guide to Healing the Mother Wound and Claiming Your Personal Power by Bethany Webster
4.0
“For generations, wounded mothers have been unconsciously asking their daughters to compensate them for what patriarchy and their families would not give them; sense of purpose, control, and personal validation.”
PHEWWWW!!! This book was incredible and I’ve already been recommending it to folks.
I wanted to give this 5 stars, however the author at one point names the Hindu Goddess Kali as well as Baba Yaga as the same apocalyptic mother archetype. This felt really strange to compare a holy religious goddess to..a Slavic mythic old lady. It was goofy and off-putting. And trust me. I love Baba Yaga.
Even though this book relies heavily on gender specific pronouns for the person needing to be healed, I think this book would be amazing for anyone.
