Refuse
La emotional wound of rejection it is one of the most profound. It does not lead so much to the rejection of others, as to the non-acceptance of oneself and the devaluation of one's abilities. Not loving yourself, however, leads to not being able to love others and the situation becomes even more tragic in this way. People with the wound of rejection would like to always live hidden and feel almost invisible. They flee from challenges. Usually they are intellectuals who choose solitude and who struggle to manage emotions by letting themselves be overwhelmed by them. They are introspective people, endowed with a strong capacity for observation and great intuition.
abandonment
People who carry the wound of abandonment they hardly manage to spend time alone in life. They suffer a lot from loneliness and are always looking for someone who can keep them company. They find themselves in a situation of strong lack of affection which at times they are unable to explain either to themselves or to others. They tend to worry a lot and well in advance if they know they will have to deal with a problematic event. They want to commit to a common goal and often like to be part of groups and associations that reflect their ideals.
Humiliation
Who has the wound of humiliation he usually tends to be fully committed to his own projects and to give his all in teamwork. The preference of these people is for practical and artisanal jobs, in which they can express their skills by giving life to something concrete and visible that can attract the attention of others. At the same time, the wound of humiliation can lead to shame and a sense of inferiority. There may be a tendency to first of all to satisfy the needs of others instead of giving priority to your own needs. Empathy and hypersensitivity are among the main characteristics of people with the wound of humiliation.
Betrayal
The emotional wound of the betrayal is related to confidence which at some point failed. For example, you could be the victim of a broken promise or an unfulfilled expectation. Those who have the wound of betrayal within themselves demand a lot both from themselves and from others and do not like to show signs of weakness. Rich expectations for the future can sometimes become an obstacle because they prevent you from living the present to the fullest. People with this injury often try to keep events and those around them in check.
Injustice
People who have suffered an injustice and who have been deeply hurt by it live too concentrated on their duty and tend to deprive themselves of all pleasure because they believe they do not deserve something beautiful in life and because they are convinced that by always completing their tasks in the best possible way they will achieve perfection and a kind of ransom. Sometimes emotional wounds manifest themselves in the physical structure of people. The wound of injustice leads to a stiff, erect and proud bearing. People hurt by injustice tend to be very neat and tidy.
To deepen the topic of the five emotional wounds, we recommend reading two very interesting texts: "The five wounds and how to heal them" by Lise Bourbeau and "Resolve the five wounds" by Maria Rosa Fimmanò.
