Inner-Child Healing
Inner child work is so necessary for the healing and development of our emotions, unhealthy patterns, damaging self-talk, and more. While doing this work you may find yourself curled into a ball sobbing because the little girl in you probably never got the chance to process the trauma.
This type of work is hard but it definitely strengthens your emotional intelligence. You will have a healthier response to triggering situations. Whether that may be letting it roll right off your shoulder or reminding yourself that you are safe, triggering situations will be less paralyzing.
Some ways to connect to your inner-child:
· Look at pictures of yourself as a child
·Use mantras like “you’re safe”, and “I am here to take care of you”.
·Write a letter to your inner-child.
·Do a body-scan. Turn inward. Our bodies hold unworked emotions and information.
Remember to go easy with yourself. Healing is not rushed. Go at your own pace.
