The Trap of Codependency + How to Break Free
In this comprehensive video lesson, I cover everything you need to know about codependency and how to overcome it.
What is codependency?
Codependency is an over-reliance on other people and relationships in order to gain self-esteem. It is due to childhood trauma and conditioning that damages our ability to love ourselves fully, and so then we source our self-worth externally from others in order to fill a void inside of us.
Codependency causes an inability to cope without others/a partner, enmeshment, and a loss of self/identity in the relationship. It often involves caretaking or rescuing other people at the expense of your own needs.
Codependency is the most common form of relating that we see all around us. It is most commonly modeled to us by other people, characters on television/movies, in songs, etc. This is how most of us learn about love and relationships, and unfortunately, it is a dysfunctional way of relating that we desperately need to transcend collectively.
This video lesson is a 2+ hour deep dive into what codependency is, how it shows up in relationships, where it comes from, and how to overcome it.
After watching, you will have a comprehensive understanding of codependency and how to break free.
The vast majority of people have codependent tendencies, so we all need to understand this.
Codependency programming is all around us, and it's a trap that's blocking us from stepping into the next level of relationships - conscious relationships and divine union.
This is BIG work...and it is 100% possible to transcend this dysfunctional way of relating.
