Atunci când femeile vor începe o revoluție colectivă împotriva agresiunii masculine, cu multă muncă - bărbații vor fi puși la locul lor, lângă femei - nu înaintea lor ! I feel like it lacked nuance overall and I can't help but wonder if she would talk about men in the same way if she had a son instead of a daughter. It's not a book that makes you feel good about yourself, but a book that teaches you how to feel okay with whatever is inside you. I listened to this during a very long road trip and found myself really questioning some of her points.

Am apreciat pasajele informative, arhetipurile ego-ului in mod particular a fost ceva nou și interesant. She didn’t just “protect” her parents from the truth about her sexual abuse – she also went beyond healthy boundaries to care for her family, friends, and even strangers. A Radical Awakening (2021) shows you how to heal by connecting to your authentic self – the person you were meant to be before society’s lies and conditioning morphed you into something else. Yes, women have been more traumatized than men by the patriarchy – the system of male domination that subjugates women and children, and has infected cultures across the globe. De asemenea, a fost multă “încurajare” sa ne trezim, și foarte mulți “trebuie” fără o susținere clara teoretica.She received her doctorate in clinical psychology from Columbia University and specializes in the integration of Eastern philosophy and Western psychology. Subjugation by the patriarchy and conditioning from its institutions leave us so desperate to be seen, and push us so far away from our true self, that we assume a false identity to get the attention we crave. Some parts were really good, other parts ok and then there were these parts where my mind went blank.

Absolutely not, it took a decade to finally come to terms that the abuse suffered from these men (and others) and it was NOT MY FAULT. Condiționarea este foarte puternică, și mai ales la bărbați, care se schimbă mult mai greu decât femeile. They alone are the ones who would be able to dig in and utilize all of the pointers Shafali doses out en masse. I was so excited to read this book and I am beyond disappointed that yet another woman doesn't have the fortitude to talk about women without proper analysis of male behaviour, and the absolute egoism inherent in genderism.I see men and women who have the privilege of financial security, familial security, the privilege of living in a safe environment, the privilege of choice. Shefali Tsabary has written four books, including her landmark New York Times best sellers, The Conscious Parent and The Awakened Family. Like the patriarchy, these institutions want individuals to seek their identity through something external – church, marriage, an educational legacy, and so on – rather than internal. This blend of East and West allow her to reach a global audience and establishes her as one of a kind in the field of mindfulness psychology for families. Patriarchy and its toxic masculinity, which has scarred women and men across the globe for centuries, also infected Shefali’s young life in less overt ways than sexual assault.

Shefali challenges a lot of what we've been conditioned to believe; about ourselves, others, society, religion - all the things. The patriarchal tentacle that snared young Shefali was India’s infatuation with light-colored skin and eyes. A Radical Awakening is the ultimate guide to breaking free from everything that doesn't feel right to you, from all imposed (and sometimes, unwritten) rules and regulations, from all things, people, and experiences that don't honor your essence. As the realities of her conditioning dawned on Shefali, she confronted them and broke their hold on her one by one.Shefali ne învață ce înseamnă să fii o femeie puternică, să îți asumi întotdeauna responsabilitatea pentru acțiunile tale, să te eliberezi de frici, să spui ceea ce gândești și simți, să faci ce îți aduce bucurie, să te iubești pe tine însăți, să lași în urmă vechile tipare cu care ai fost crescută și educată, pentru a îmbrățișa noul tău sine, noile tale idei și comportamente. If you haven't noticed, I'm on a feminist / deconstruct the patriarchy / equal rights for all - races, genders, sexualities, etc. When we tell women, or anyone for that matter to take agency of their lives, make unapologetic amendments to their physical health care or mental health care (wellness in general), we presuppose they have the privilege of plentiful choices.
