Spiritual Bypassing

Spiritual bypassing is the use of spiritual ideas and practices to avoid or repress unresolved emotional wounds and real-world issues. Coined by the late psychologist John Welwood in 1984, this phrase has become quite popular in recent years. In this talk, recorded live in October 2021, we'll explore this common pitfall on the path, and look at our blind spots with love.
