Healing the Inner Child

These sessions focus on healing the parts of ourselves – our inner children – that got ‘stuck’ and are in need of our care, attention and nurture in order to re-integrate.  When we give our inner children the gift of our mature care, protection and love, they are free to release old patterns and contribute their gifts to our lives.  

Your inner child may be a factor in holding onto past fear, resentment, not being good enough or sadness. It may also be the reason you have trouble moving on and accepting that you deserve happiness. 

Our inner child self is the foundation of our being and the gateway to our Higher Self wisdom.

Our reconnection and loving acceptance of our inner child aspects is the key in achieving a feeling of wholeness, courage, curiosity, joy, playfulness, creativity, imagination, learning about your untapped gifts /potential and unity with our creator.

What is the benefit of Inner Child work:

• learning how to take better care of yourself
• feeling self- compassion and liking yourself more
• being able to enjoy life and have fun again

What kinds of issues can inner child work help me with?

• places we are stuck
• challenging emotions, including anxiety, sadness and anger
• low self- esteem 
• abandonment issues
• emotional numbness
• self- sabotage
• self-criticism
• relationship difficulties 
• codependency and powerlessness

Our emotions and triggers often have roots in our childhood, though there can also be recent events that are affecting us.  Either way, inner child work can help us heal the parts of us that are not feeling safe or nurtured.  Working with your inner child and past core memory beliefs can get to the root of issues and allow the healing to unfold.

Inner child work might take the form of:

• dialoguing with your inner child
• journaling from your inner child’s voice
• talking with a coach from your inner child’s voice
• meditating to feel in touch with your inner child
• working with a doll or stuffed toy that represents your inner child
• allowing yourself to be playful in real life and do things you loved as a child
• learning to ‘parent’ yourself- nurture and care for yourself
