A soul wound is a deep emotional hurt that affects our sense of self and our ability to relate to others. Some common types of soul wounds are:
- Injustice: feeling that life is unfair or that you have been treated unfairly by others1.
- Humiliation: feeling ashamed or embarrassed by something that happened to you or something you did12.
- Abandonment: feeling that you have been left alone or neglected by someone you love or depend on13.
- Betrayal: feeling that someone you trusted has lied to you, cheated on you, or broken a promise to you14.
- Rejection: feeling that you are not wanted, accepted, or valued by others13.
Some examples of situations that can cause soul wounds are:
- Being abused, neglected, or bullied as a child53.
- Being criticized, put down, or ridiculed by your parents, teachers, or peers52.
- Being abandoned, divorced, or widowed by your spouse34.
- Being betrayed, cheated on, or lied to by your partner, friend, or colleague34.
- Being rejected, ignored, or excluded by someone you like or admire34.
