How can Inner Child Healing transform your life completely?

Embrace your inner child

 

Inner Child Healing

No matter what age we are, inside all of us we have an ‘inner child’. Depending on how ‘our child’ is feeling our behaviour and emotions will be reflected in our adult selves. Inner Child work brings to light behavioral patterns, traits and beliefs that were groomed into our unconscious during childhood and thereby makes us aware of how as adults we are actually simply playing these out in our relationships, career, finances, personal and  social life. The inner child is the being within, created during the years from age four to seven – the so-called formative years. If, during this time, a traumatic event occurs with frequency, we may bury the event within us.  If, for instance, our Inner Child is hurt or frightened, then that’s how we are in our adult life.

What happens when we don’t resolve childhood wounds?

When we are still carrying childhood wounds into our adult lives, they may show up in your outer life as problematic communications, anger, dysfunctional relationships, addictions, codependency or other related issues. They may leave us feeling sad, lonely, abandoned or distrustful. Most of these issues were established out of earlier experiences which were learned in early childhood. These patterns and beliefs can be healed allowing you to change your perspective and move into a place of emotional freedom.

Benefits of healing the wounded Inner Child

How Does Inner Child Healing work?

With many of these early beliefs and patterns it is possible to regress right back to the very first time our Inner Child developed this belief. Using our adult perspective we can change this belief, and then develop a new understanding and perspective about the circumstances of our childhood and replace the old belief with an empowering belief. We can start to remember that we are deeply lovable and create a new positive belief patterns about ourselves at a deep unconscious level that will start to manifest into our external reality i.e. our everyday lives. We also use the integrate some special qualities that are inherent within us, such as feelings of self-confidence, strength and self-acceptance among others.

All inner Child Healing sessions are different as they are tailored for your individual needs and may include the following:

  • finding out the source of the emotional holding-anger, shame, guilt, confusion, grief.
  • giving the child a voice- by allowing the child to express and release unsaid feelings and words, he/she feels heard and thus empowered.
  • learn any lessons from that childhood experience.
  • moving to resolution and closure, often with forgiveness

Inner Child Healing is a simple and safe process which often results in powerful life changing transformations.

How Many Inner Child Therapy Sessions Do I Need?

Often just one session of Inner child Healing will produce powerful shift for clients.

Are you ready:

  • to meet your inner child?
  • to identify, discharge and release childhood trauma?
  • validate you experiences as a child?
  •  to listen what your inner child has to say?
  • to embrace your inner child?
  • to free yourself from emotional baggage you have been carrying for years?

For those who are unaware of the source of their problems or pain, Inner Child Healing can be a great way to re-connect with their child-self. Inner child healing is very powerful because it goes to the very first event in your childhood when you were wounded emotionally. Together, we look at issues of abandonment, betrayal, denial, blame, guilt, judgement and separation. It is moving from a place of confusion, anger, helplessness, powerlessness to self love, gratitude and forgiveness.

Allowing your inner child to be nurtured, supported and allowed to express him/herself freely can be very liberating.

It is time to release your inner child from guilt, shame, blame, hurt or responsibility. It is time to meet and nurture him/her. Your Inner Child’s dreams, courage and determination live within you now.
