Overview

When we don’t allow ourselves to accept our parents, we feel a huge emptiness inside.

ACCEPTING YOUR PARENTS


We all carry some hurt towards our parents.

Some of us are aware of it and understand it, while others have pushed these feelings deep into the subconscious mind and no longer feel them. We try to justify them or want to “forgive” them..

Whatever we do, carrying these feelings within ourselves prevents us from accepting our parents as they are - and it has a profound impact in all areas of our lives.

How does it show up?

When we can’t accept our parents (our roots), we can’t feel whole. We don’t truly know who we are, we can’t find our path, and we wander through the world unable to find our place.

Because we are missing them - we feel an inner emptiness, an unexplainable sadness, which we try to fill with other people, achievements, or money.

When we push our parents out of the place that rightfully belongs to them, we start to play roles in our relationships - becoming a daughter or a mother to our partner, or the other way around - the man becomes a son or a father to his woman.

It also happens that we try to punish our parents. Through our partner. Because we project one of our parents onto them.

Or, if we feel a great deal of anger and hatred towards our parents and do everything we can not to be like them, we often don’t even notice how we become just like them - or end up creating lives that look exactly the same as theirs.


At some point in life, many people have said to themselves:
“I will never be like my mother…”
“I will never be like my father…”

But somehow, life ends up leading them down the same path, and they create a life that looks very similar - or even exactly the same.

We are part of our family system - and that system is our family. Everyone in it - has their own rightful place.

When we carry deep hurt toward our parents - when we’re angry at them, when we hate them or blame them - we try to push them away and desperately want to be different from them.

But when we don’t allow ourselves to love and accept them, the only way to feel close to them is to become like them. We unconsciously create our lives in ways that reflect theirs - sometimes almost exactly.

Because the more we run from them, the more our inner child longs to reclaim the right to love his parents. And the only way to feel close to them is to become just like them.

To return to your place and to be able to accept your parents, you don’t need to forgive them. That doesn’t work.

You need to look at their lives from aside and see the reasons why they are the way they are, and why they made certain choices in life - even the ones that hurt us.


This lecture is not about “forgive and forget.”

The purpose of this lecture is to help you understand the reasons behind your parents’ choices and learn to accept them. Because even if their actions hurt you, they also served you in some way.

Until we accept our parents, we cannot fully receive what they HAVE given us. And what they gave us is the most important thing - our life.

By holding on to resentment, we refuse their gift and keep ourselves turned toward the past. We close the doors to joy, fulfilment, and happiness - and cannot move forward into the future, into our own lives.


In this lecture, we will talk about:

Why is it hard for me to accept my parents the way they are, and how does it affect my life?Why do I still feel anger, resentment, or disappointment toward them, and how does it show up in my relationships with others?
Why do I feel ashamed of my parents, want to change them, or feel the need to be better than them?
Why do I feel an unexplainable sadness and a lack of true happiness?
Why do I constantly feel as if I’m in the wrong place?
Why, in relationships, I become smaller - I can’t stand up for myself or can’t protect my boundaries.
Why, in relationships, I take on the role of a “mother” to my partner - constantly caring for him, helping him, rescuing him, or trying to guide him.
Why do I want to merge with my partner - wanting to do everything together and fearing his distance?
Why can’t I create healthy, long-term relationships - why do they end as soon as they begin?
Why do I feel better than others - where does the desire to judge or criticise them come from?
Why do I constantly need to prove my worth and never feel “good enough”?


In this lecture, you will learn:

What a family system is and how it works.
How to take your rightful place as a child in the family system and allow your parents to stand in theirs.
How to release old emotions - anger, guilt, shame, disappointment, and pain.
How to accept your parents as they are, without judging them or trying to change them.
How to stop repeating your parents’ life scenarios in relationships, work, and everyday life.
How to step out of the “mother” or “daughter” role in your relationships.
How to stop seeking love, approval, and recognition from the outside world.
How to restore your inner peace, a sense of wholeness, and natural joy.
How to truly feel gratitude toward your parents for the most important gift - your life.
