Author Kara Hudson's recent book, "WHO AM I? A DEEP DIVE THROUGH SPIRITUAL WOUNDING TO IDENTITY", helps readers heal from religious and spiritual trauma.
Who am I? Who gets to decide who I am? What experiences indicate my worth? Were my childhood family relationships supportive of my true identity or destructive? Did my family culture and belief system support LOVE for myself and for others?
What do I do with the forbidden questions that I wasn’t allowed to ask? What happens when I’m terrified to question my beliefs? What happens when I do what I’m “supposed” to do and my body is falling apart? How can my body help me find peace?
The author will read portions of "Who Am I? A Deep Dive Through Spiritual Wounding to Identity" that will allow these questions to surface. Non-judgmental opportunities are provided to explore identity and belief. You will learn meaningful, psychologically-sound ways of connecting to mind, emotions, body, and spirit in the context of LOVE.
Both my Great-Grandpas on my Dad's side migrated to the U.S. from Southern Europe around the turn of the century, very early 1900s. I have ancestors on my Mom's side who helped construct Yale and Harvard back in the 1800s. My Mom's family tree goes back to the 1700s.
Quite enlightening! Deep down I always had reserves about some of the dogma taught to me at the Christian Churches. Much of it didn't set right with me, but for years I just ignored it and tried to sweep it under a rug, often out of fear......
You've always been so gracious in sharing this journey, Sheila. That has helped so many people! Thank you so much for that gift! I can hardly wait to get book--it's supposed to arrive Monday!!!!
A rare avoidant hi can not only see the problem but will take responsibility and face up to yourself. I still wouldn’t believe it till I saw it in action, too ideas. Avoidant people are highly destructive in relationships. I just ended one, nipped it in the bud after several seemingly perfect months with a woman. Then for no apparent reason she shut down. I recognized the behavior and three days later ended it completely. I have zero tolerance having been in such a relationship many years ago. I’m here wondering how it was I tripped up and didn’t recognize it from the start. At least I got in before she did the inevitable, even though for months she said it was the relationship she had always dreamed of. Avoid avoidant at all costs.
Wow! The youtube algorithm gods are really working today as I'm also dismissive avoidant and it sent me your video just now. Being DA is exhausting. I want nothing more than to be in a secure committed relationship but (with the exception of one relationship that sadly didn't work out) I have never felt ''all in" despite wanting to. I get the common FOMO experience that people get, the doubts about new people that inevitably creep in, but I have another issue where I am terrified of being responsible for someone else's emotional pain and after two rough breakups since 2020, the first 11 years and the second 1 year, I am absolutely terrified of hurting someone again and have pushed people away while dating after just a few weeks now. It's really an awful way to be. Would love to know what realisations you had to get past the feelings of FOMO and if the "responsible for someone else's emotional pain" aspect rings through would love to know how you dealt with that. Thanks for sharing!
Christ said, And just as you want men to do to you, you also do to them likewise. (Luke 6:31) He existed before the foundation of the world. Define "Christianity" not all "Christians" are "true" believers. There are many different "gospels" being preached many according to man, and not whats written in the scriptures. Those who love to share their "opinions" and write their own book's
