HOW OLD IS YOUR INNER CHILD?

It’s always an Overwhelming experience for the client to meet his/her own younger self for the first time.

Your inner child rules your thoughts and behaviour making up who you are today.

Your inner child could be 4 year old or may be 6 years old or may be 10 year old. He/she just stopped growing after the trauma. Inner child healing helps overcome this.

It is easy to dismiss the very need for healing one’s inner child, for most of us assume we are sorted most of the time. But a ‘wounded child symptoms’ soon lays such an assumption to rest. Are you a people-pleaser? Are you a hoarder who has trouble letting go of anything? Are you addicted to substances? Do you continually criticise yourself? Are you driven to be a super-achiever? Are you depressed a lot of the time? Are you confused about your sexual identity? Do you have trouble starting or finishing things? Are you a perfectionist?

These are just a few of the traits that indicate a part of you may have been ‘wounded’ in childhood or adolescence.

At any stage of growing up, if the child faces any sort of abuse, neglect or trauma, it manifests later in life as co-dependency, trust or self-esteem issues, acting-out behaviour, intimacy dysfunction, addictive or compulsive behaviours, thought distortions or emptiness, or worse.

The wounded inner child patiently waits for the adult part to acknowledge the source of his pain so that adult part can heal the inner child with his love and care.
