#6 - Family Estrangement - Poor family bond & Bowens family system theory - Deciding to leave family - Long-term disconnection - Emotionally immature parents - Lilith and womankind (mythology that relates to now)

If you feel alone inside the family, you might as well face the loneliness, that comes from estrangement. This episodes has no moral about what you need to do in your personal context - but I am offering a voice of permission to seek relief from a constraint biological relationship by distancing. For me that means choosing my own family made up by friends and role-models. It takes a long time - I have not found any easy route to this. But it is my invitation to not preserve familial contract at any cost. Make the choice that is right to you and know that there are better people for you out there. The more you heal, the more you will meet them. In this chapter I touch on: • Circling back to the theme of prostitution • Women as descent into matter • Lilith - Black Moon lilith but mostly the myth • a bit more of my summary of Jeffrey Wolfgreens lecture on sexuality- to be continued! • Bowens family system and cut off • Closeness - distance - Individuality- togetherness • Differentiation of self and Triangling • Definition of estrangement, it can be physical and emotional (Family estrangement - a matter of perspective) • Raising relationship complaints and being met by vulnerable parents who forgot/deny what your account of what has happened • Self-doubt versus a SOLID self • Learned helplessness • FAMILY OF CHOICE • A long good night story but actually need to be quite awake in order to get the meaning (reading from the book, Lilith - Keepers of the flame, Mary Blue) Thank you for listening.
