Chinnamasta, one of the Mahavidyas in Hindu tradition, represents the powerful forces of self-control, detachment, and transcendence. She symbolizes the ability to sever attachments, both physical and emotional, to help individuals develop healthier boundaries. By connecting with Chinnamasta, we seek her guidance to detach from unhealthy obsessions and reclaim our personal power. Below is a filled example of an exercise to reflect on boundaries and detachment in relationships:
