Breaking Free from Maternal Love: Pain and Healing in the Mother-Daughter Relationship

In the past, we were threatened by teachers that the college entrance examination was the only chance to change our lives. Later, we had to take the postgraduate entrance examination, the public examination, and choose a partner. Every option seems like the sky will fall if you choose the wrong one, but life is really not that fragile. The error-tolerance rate in life is so great that you can hardly imagine it. The utilitarian-oriented way of thinking often makes us forget that the essence of life is a process. Countless people have ignored the truth that many things are actually meaningless at all. Eating, drinking and having fun is not a waste of time, and enduring hardship is not necessarily worthy of praise. Life is about constantly feeling and experiencing, loving what you love. But we always like to compare ourselves with others, which only increases our own anxiety and internal friction. You don't have to do what the world thinks is meaningful. If you want to be in a daze, watching the sunset and counting the stars is meaningful. You are just here to experience life, not to perform perfectly. Slowly accept the dark parts of yourself, forgive yourself for your slowness and mediocrity, allow yourself to make mistakes, allow yourself to occasionally cut off the power, bloom with all your shortcomings, keep trying, harvesting, feeling and then letting go. In other words, we can all understand it: in a burger eating competition, winning or losing is not important, because you can eat a burger no matter what.

It can be said to be a healing book for women. People can only cross by themselves. Daughters suffering from unhealthy, toxic mother-daughter relationships can take some inspiration from this book. We can not only get maternal love from our biological mothers, but also from Mother Nature and so on.

Filled with female spiritual guidance. Traditional culture makes parents pay more attention to boys, while girls are given a functional positioning. Most lack patience and attention.

After reading this book, I have a clearer understanding of the unhealthy relationship between mother and daughter. I also let go of some or mourn the maternal love that I will never get. I see my toxic behavior towards my daughter. Fortunately, it is not too late. I will give up what I can't get, work hard to remove the poison, give my daughter healthier love, and avoid my own tragedy.

The situations in this book are very specific and real. It gave me a deeper understanding of my previous relationship with my mother. I should not be obsessed with my mother's love and should look for other people who can give me maternal love.

After reading this book, I learned a lot about psychology, what are the unhealthy mother-daughter relationships, and how can we overcome this unhealthy mother-daughter relationship.

After reading this book, I realized that an unhealthy mother-daughter relationship may have a profound impact on myself and my children. The cases and solutions in the book are very practical and helped me learn how to maintain boundaries with my mother and how to heal myself. I am going to recommend this book to my other friends, especially moms who are going through similar problems like me.

Mourning yourself, alerting yourself, and jumping out of the cycle of fate.

Very well written and highly recommended.

It's particularly good. You can see the shadows of yourself and your mother in many analyses.

Be honest with yourself, love the world seriously, and have more connections with society.
