Daughters of Narcissistic Mothers - Restoring Your Strong Sense of Self

Narcissistic mothers are non-parents. They are incapable of emotional and psychological intimacy. They cannot attach and bond with their children appropriately. They use their children as puppets to mirror them perfectly.  At some point you know that your mother cannot and will not and did not fulfill your deepest needs. This is a time of reckoning when you know that you must act for yourself and learn to nourish and take care of yourself first. This is not selfish; it is essential. This self healing begins with small steps. Get the sleep and rest that you need and deserve. Eat nourishing food, organic if you can, that keeps you healthy and strong. Develop a spiritual practice using your definition, turn to Nature, the great healer and source of great beauty, experience the solitude of your own company, listen to music that appeals to you and moves you into the parasympathetic restorative mode, move and exercise in the way that works for you.  Be very kind to the small child inside of you. You are a wonderful individual: empathic, persevering,  resourceful, authentic, creative.  Click the link below for my books on Amazon: https://tinyurl.com/2p92ymam Click the link below for the Mental Health News Radio Network, a Global Network of Shows by Podcasters on Mental Health www.mhnrnetwork.com
