If you missed the first half of this interview, please listen to Episode 35: The Spiritual Abuse of Fundamentalist Ideologies, Including But Not Limited To Religion with The Reclamation Collective.

In this episode, we continue to discuss religious trauma and...

• discuss whether Religious Trauma Syndrome as a diagnosis should be added to the DSM
• discuss how to mindfully reclaim and rebuild spirituality after religious deconstruction
• talk about sustainable deconstruction and the necessity for safe spaces for curiosity, questions, deconversion, and reclaiming spirituality
• talk about developing an awareness to hold how we have personally participated in harm, colonization, and supremacy while also acknowledging how we did these things because of indoctrination, brain-washing, fear, and guilt
• discuss therapy modalities that help those who are deconstructing/deconverting reconnect with their bodies
• dive deep into the disconnection from our bodies and from pleasure as part of religious trauma
• have an in-depth conversation on how to have boundaries with people who are part of a system without a framework for boundaries
• share some practical ways to set boundaries with loved ones who are still religious
