Hitting Rock Bottom: How Much Pain to Start Loving Yourself? - Inner Work Library [07/500]

You don't need to suffer unnecessary pain. Hitting rock-bottom is a common experience, but a thankfully avoidable experience. This video shows you how to avoid hitting rock bottom by applying the principles of trauma therapy, transpersonal psychology and full-spectrum addiction recovery. In this episode of Inner Work Q&A, we look deeply into the unconscious trauma, shadow dynamics, and the wounded places which keep us trapped in compulsive loops. This video explores the psychological origins of our addictive patterns by integrating several different perspectives, including: Shadow Work / Jungian Psychology; Transpersonal Psychotherapy; Trauma Therapy; Addiction Recovery and Cathartic Release.
