the trauma of toxic-shame...

‘Toxic shame is the belief that one is inherently bad, defective, different, or unlovable.

Toxic shame is not just a belief that one does bad things; it is deeply held core belief that one is bad. Survival.

–Robert A Glover

Shame is a soul eating emotion.

–C G Jung’

• I’m not good enough

• I’m fake

• I’m unworthy

• I’m not loveable

• I can’t do anything right

• I’m ugly

• I’m stupid

• I’m hopeless

• I’m broken

• I’m a mistake

• It’s all me

-are the false beliefs set by the wounded/lost/rejected inner-child as self-defenses in a toxic conflicted environment.

These opinions are formed by a blindfolded child as a survival mode (fight/flight/freeze/appease) in a chaotic household.

The ‘toxic-shame’ pseudo perceptions stop us from receiving love/kindness/affection from others and ourselves.

‘Toxic-shame’ sets in while growing up in a house full of discord and friction.

'Toxic-shame' always comes attached with loads of disapproval and condemnation for being who we are.

Toxic-shame is always waiting to get triggered at the innermost core of an adult-child.

We all are spiritual superheroes in our respective universes. 🤗

The ‘dark night of the soul’ leads us to - unconditional love😍, validation, compassion and forgiveness for our inner-child & the adult-self.

It's getting used to love oneself unabashedly.
