First is the detachment phase which is the letting go of expectations. This is divorcing and cutting the cord of unhealthy trauma that was connected to your experiences with your mother.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your mother&#8217;s role was to nurture you after giving birth to you. If she failed to nurture you as a child  then you can begin receiving nourishment  through the power of the Holy spirit.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can detach from an unhealthy soul tie with your mother by saying a simple prayer like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dear God,&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I acknowledge that I have mother wounds and I need you to heal me.&nbsp; I detach from the trauma of not being loved, nurtured, and cared for by my mother.

But that nurturing needs to continue after the infancy stage.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But how does this happen?<br><br>It is by the power of the&nbsp; Holy Spirit who will nurture your heart so that you can nurture your child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Partner with the Holy Spirit to self-soothe in healthy ways. It may be very painful to experience negative feelings as these feelings often feel intense as an adult. You can self soothe in several ways:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>When you feel negative feelings ( pain, rejection, shame) put your hands on your belly and take a deep breath\u2014in through your nose and out your mouth ( 3x)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Speak your feelings aloud to yourself. Sometimes it helps to hear your reasoning in third person.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Journal your feelings. Your thoughts if not addressed manifests itself into anxiety or even nightmares. It is important to put your thoughts down somewhere and the safest place is in a personal journal. I have a journal that I have titled therapy with the Holy Spirit.&nbsp; These journaling moments&nbsp; with the Holy Spirit have been so therapeutic because the Lord knows how to heal in ways that only He knows how to do.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide is-stacked-on-mobile has-background\" style=\"background-color:#efd4cb\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"840\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/simplestepsbyjen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/poppie-pack-jAVlGc_mUW4-unsplash.jpg?resize=840%2C600&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2644 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/simplestepsbyjen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/poppie-pack-jAVlGc_mUW4-unsplash-scaled.jpg?resize=1024%2C732&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/simplestepsbyjen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/poppie-pack-jAVlGc_mUW4-unsplash-scaled.jpg?resize=300%2C214&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/simplestepsbyjen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/poppie-pack-jAVlGc_mUW4-unsplash-scaled.jpg?resize=768%2C549&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/simplestepsbyjen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/poppie-pack-jAVlGc_mUW4-unsplash-scaled.jpg?resize=1536%2C1097&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/simplestepsbyjen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/poppie-pack-jAVlGc_mUW4-unsplash-scaled.jpg?resize=2048%2C1463&amp;ssl=1 2048w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/simplestepsbyjen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/poppie-pack-jAVlGc_mUW4-unsplash-scaled.jpg?resize=84%2C60&amp;ssl=1 84w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/simplestepsbyjen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/poppie-pack-jAVlGc_mUW4-unsplash-scaled.jpg?w=1680&amp;ssl=1 1680w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/simplestepsbyjen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/poppie-pack-jAVlGc_mUW4-unsplash-scaled.jpg?w=2520&amp;ssl=1 2520w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 840px) 100vw, 840px\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p>Learn to heal the mother wound by self-soothing.

If this sounds like your childhood, then you more than likely have a mother wound. It is important to give these fears of abandonment and rejection to God. I learned that I was not an orphan but a child of God when I learned about my inheritance and identity as a daughter.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Highlighted_Scripture_Verse\"><\/span>Highlighted Scripture Verse:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You have received a spirit of adoption, through which we cry, \u201cAbba Father!\u201d The Spirit itself bears witness with our spirit that we are <strong>children of God<\/strong>, and if children, then heirs, heirs of God and joint-heirs with Christ, if only we suffer with him so that we may also be glorified with him\u201d (Romans 8: 15-17).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7_Self_judgment_self-_criticism_and_comparisons\"><\/span>7)  Self judgment, self- criticism, and comparisons&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>Mothers with mother wounds will try to pass on the burden of self-judgment and self-criticism onto their daughters as a self-preservation technique.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;A&nbsp; mother that is very hard on herself will think about the many mistakes that she made overtime in her life. She will continue to live in that place of being overly critical to protect herself from making more mistakes in life or she&nbsp; may compare her daughter with another child to list things that might appear better, more beautiful, or exciting.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can overcome self judgment, self-criticism, and comparisons by doing the exact opposite:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Instead of criticizing yourself for any shortcomings, speak words of positive affirmations. Counteract any lies with the truth of God\u2019s word.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Stop comparing yourself with others accomplishments, beauty, or fame and start comparing yourself to God\u2019s standards of purity, love, and joy.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Do whatever is lovely, pure\u2026Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable\u2014if anything is excellent or praiseworthy\u2014think about such things (<strong>Philippians 4:8 NIV)<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"8_Fear_of_displeasing_your_mother_or_you_look_for_her_approval\"><\/span>8)  Fear of displeasing your mother or you look for her approval&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>If your mother would get upset easily with you for not sacrificing your own wishes or needs for her or if you would ask her before making important life decisions than this a sign of mother wounds.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> It\u2019s okay to make your own decisions and choices without your mother\u2019s approval. The healing strategy is believing that it is&nbsp; okay to just BE who you are and not strive to be the version of your mother\u2019s wishes. It is important to realize this need to please your mother is derived out of FEAR and not love. God is love and with Him He can remove all fear from your heart if you let him.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Mother_Wound_Journal_Prompts\"><\/span>Mother Wound Journal Prompts<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As you are going through this journey of healing from mother wounds, it is important to process the pain in a safe way.

I learned so much about myself ( true and false self), my fears, and who God called me to be.

When you are nurtured and loved by God, you will be able to  nurture and love your child without any reservations or things in your past holding you back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"791\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/simplestepsbyjen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/2.png?resize=791%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Mother wound journal prompts\" class=\"wp-image-1657\" style=\"width:497px;height:643px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/simplestepsbyjen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/2.png?resize=791%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 791w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/simplestepsbyjen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/2.png?resize=232%2C300&amp;ssl=1 232w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/simplestepsbyjen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/2.png?resize=768%2C994&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/simplestepsbyjen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/2.png?resize=1187%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 1187w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/simplestepsbyjen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/2.png?resize=46%2C60&amp;ssl=1 46w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/simplestepsbyjen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/2.png?w=1545&amp;ssl=1 1545w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 791px) 100vw, 791px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"791\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/simplestepsbyjen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/3.png?resize=791%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Mother wound journal prompts\" class=\"wp-image-1658\" style=\"width:499px;height:646px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/simplestepsbyjen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/3.png?resize=791%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 791w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/simplestepsbyjen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/3.png?resize=232%2C300&amp;ssl=1 232w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/simplestepsbyjen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/3.png?resize=768%2C994&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/simplestepsbyjen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/3.png?resize=1187%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 1187w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/simplestepsbyjen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/3.png?resize=46%2C60&amp;ssl=1 46w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/simplestepsbyjen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/3.png?w=1545&amp;ssl=1 1545w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 791px) 100vw, 791px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide is-stacked-on-mobile has-background\" style=\"background-color:#f0d5cc66;grid-template-columns:35% auto\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" height=\"1024\" width=\"791\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/simplestepsbyjen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/mother-wound-pics.png?resize=791%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2797 size-full\"\/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Do_you_have_Mother_Wounds\"><\/span>Do you have Mother Wounds?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Get Your <strong>Free Prayer Journal Prompts <\/strong>to help you on your journey of healing.
