EMOTIONAL WOUNDS are more than just scars from the past, as they often leave unconscious imprints on our souls. Unresolved traumas can develop an existence of their own and become our excuses for why we cannot live a fulfilling life. Yet these wounds can also serve as catalysts to nourish and transform our experience of life.

Experienced psychotherapist Gina Goldfeder explains the origin of an emotional wound and how our identification with it can obscure our self-perception. Sharing many case studies from her practice, she highlights tools for transcending pain and to facilitate healing, such as mantras, emotional ceremonies and rituals, and journaling. One of our most important challenges is to let go of our emotional wounds and create a new identity, and doing so will change the way we experience life. Grounding and stabilizing practices such as encounters with ourselves and working with the body/soul connection help to keep us anchored in our new existence.

Centered on the process of acknowledging, honoring, and learning to release the original wound, this guide will support you in turning former trauma into new opportunities for expansion and happiness.
