Healing Your Inner Child

What happens in our childhood can affect us in our adult lives. We grow up learning the behaviors, thought processes, and belief systems from our parents. Whether someone has a happy or difficult childhood, it is important for us to deal with any issues that we observe and experience during our childhood so it does not affect us negatively in our adult lives. Whatever belief systems, thought patterns, and thought processes we learned from our parents can be changed at anytime in our adult lives.

We can change these belief systems, thought patterns, and thought processes that our parents taught us at any time in our adult lives if they start to affect our adult life. We are born to learn and grow from our parents so we will repeat the pattern of what we witnessed our parents go through or struggle with. It is important for us to deal with our inner child wounds so we can ascend. There are different ways to deal with healing with inner child wounds. Depending on the severity of the issue, you can do it on your own, professional help (healer/therapist/spiritual coach/psychic/life coach), or rehabilitation centers.

The first step in healing your inner child wound (s) is determining what type of wound it is. Types of inner child wounds are fear of commitment, money, addiction, religious & belief factors, and finances/career.

The second step is determining how this affects you and blocks your growth in your adult life. Commitment issues will prevent you from having a meaningful relationship. Instead of looking for a life partner, you choose partners for physical pleasure or are emotionally unavailable. Money issues will bring on the fear of never having enough money, keep in you debt, or constant struggle financially paying the bills. Addiction to alcohol, drugs, sex, work, etc can take a toll on your life and health. Allowing others to physically, mentally, or emotionally abuse you as well as keep you stuck in toxic situations or relationships because you feel you are not good enough. Relgious/Society Status issues refer to your parents teaching you that must marry someone in your religion or someone who is has a certain type of family dynamic/status. Financial & career issues are your parents teaching you must go to college, have a corporate job making 6 figures, own a home etc before you settle down to enjoy family and life.

The third step is figuring out which childhood experience caused this wound. Below are some examples - please use your discretion when determining the cause:

Commitment issue triggers are parents divorce, single parent environment where the other parent is not in the picture, non-affectionate parents, or parents staying married for the convenience of money, insurance, or chldren. Money issue triggers are money was always scarce in household, one income household, lack of child support/alimony, or parent (s) unable to keep a job due to addictions or irresponsibilities. Addiction issue triggers are parent (s) alcohol or drug abuse, sex/adultery, gambling, or work. Abuse triggers are physical, or emotional where you witnessed your parent abusing the other, yourself, or your siblings. Relgious/Society Status issue triggers are you must marry someone within your own religion/race or must with be someone of a particular status/class. Financial/Career issue triggers are someone who must make a certain amount of money or someone that has a high ranking position in their chosen career field.

The final step is clearing this block so you may heal. How you heal it is up to you. It depends on the severity of the block because professional help may be required in cases of addiction and abuse. For non-severe blocks you can call upon your angels to clear block or enlist the help of a spiritual coach, healer, or therapist.

Regardless of your upbringing and where you are at on your life path journey, you deserve love and happiness and all of your dreams to come true.
