I was meditating one day, and I had this realization that the five year old me was still there, asking for something. Asking for validation. Acknowledgement. Neither of my parents were emotionally unavailable and I still don't go to them for any kind of advice. It still hurts. After that meditation I started to open up to it, and do some work. Acknowledge the hurt and pain I went through. That none of it was my fault. I would literally talk to the five year old self, and sometimes it was hard, and sometimes I would break down and cry. I'm working on acceptance and would hope that others understand that I'm imperfect but trying my best.

Since I’ve started re parenting myself, showing my inner child compassion and encouragement I feel much happier in life

My inner child: seeking care, unconditional love, and nurture from men. My father wasn’t always there during my childhood. I sought that “fatherly” love. I’m glad, I came to the realisation I won’t find it in others. Time to close this chapter of seeking that unconditional love and move forward.

Just last night as I was PRAYING 🙏, the Holy Spirit revealed to me that I need to focus on Loving & Healing my Hurt Inner Child so that I can feel worthy of LOVE as an adult. For anyone else going thru this, it's not easy but I know it's worth it. Thankyou to the Creator of this Video in Helping me to Start My Journey of Healing & Restoration 🙏💓💓 I 💓💓💓💓💓U

I feel one of the biggest for men is to not show your emotions or feelings as a boy. This transition to manhood.

Finally confronted my 94 year old Father my childhood experiences. He gaslights, is narcissistic and completely ignored the family dynamic by claiming we were all happy when we were definitely not! We rarely were allowed to go to other ppls homes, rarely had anyone (friends) visit us and we had no fun. It was always work. Used bullying pitting siblings against each other. INFJ here. Not a great childhood.

I really love the way that you explain such complex subject matter. I feel like I grow every time I apply your advice to my life.

Thank you for this video. Getting to our inner child is the most difficult part of spiritual jorney. Someone asks is it the ego? No, ego is the part that is protectimg inner child if it has wounds that where not healed. This traumas could happen long time ago. And sometimes we cant remember it. It looks like in relationships that ypu have youre unment needs. And you crave for it. And you fell lot of anxiety and pain if you dont get want you want at that moment. Difference is that child doesnt take any responsibility for their actions and life. Like a victim behavior. Ive worked with psychotherapist for a long time, untill we realized that my wounds happened when I wasnt born yet. So reapareting than needs some guide. I do bioenergetic work, with therapist also. And I can tell that it is a the hardest thing I ever did in my life. People who expect that it ie easy, it is a mistake. And it is a mistake if not healing the inner child could give us some peace, like forget about it. We cannot forget, that is the problem. It is our subconceous program. And the ego starts to desolve when we feel more secure, and more adult. It is protecting something that we dont see. When we heal our inner child we are more opened to the world. And we feel safe, grounded, and secure. We start to feel love dor uorselves.

Before knowing how to cultivate your inner parent, you need to identify what your needs are otherwise we don’t know what we are asking for .
If you grew up in a place where your initial needs were not met then you think that it’s too much to ask whilst it’s valid. Finding the balance is the key not too much to ask and daring to ask
What are your needs ?
What are your values?

Validate and soothe the inner child when they are in pain or upset. Thanks for sharing.

[Nicole-ceph]

In cultivating a wise inner parent that validates what my inner child is experiencing emotionally, do I tell my inner child that "it's okay to feel ...." ? What if the feeling is 'fear' or 'unlovable' ?
My immediate urge is to tell that child not to be afraid. That it's safe. (All things I never heard as a child when I was afraid of dad coming home from work in a bad mood). But by saying "don't be scared" is that not denying the child's emotional experience?

I'm confused on so many levels. I'm practicing consciousness and I observe myself, I notice my triggers but I don't know how to appropriately communicate with my inner child, so that I don't cause it more harm.

There are many times I don't even know why such strong emotional responses are elicited within me. Like why did this trigger me? I'm aware enough to know that the overwhelming feeling taking over inside me has probably nothing to do with my now experience, and that it stems from a deeper level, but I have no idea what past event it's coupled to. I've consciously suppressed a lot of painful memories so then I can supposed that the reason I barely remember much from my childhood is that I also repressed a lot too.
So then how do I heal if I don't even know why I feel the way I do?

I'm nervous because I never share such thoughts publicly. And I also feel embarrassed for sharing so much. I would normally apologize BUT here's to expressing my emotions without asking for forgiveness in doing so. My parents really did a number on me huh.

You are a great teacher Dr Nicole! Thank you for your gracious manner.
I have shame issues I’m working on from my past, and realize I can’t stand it when I hear someone say “ shame on you!” It tells me they are carrying ALOT of shame and projecting their shame by judging and condemning others! I have a hard time with this!

[agneslabyselberg]

It's so disturbing to feel unsafe in your own body and like you cant trust yourself, to feel like you always need someone to show you the way. Anyone got out of this mental state wanna share how they did it? 😊

[alivethrive]

Thank you for sharing. I am leading a teen group and helping to model how to be a good parent to yourself. It’s how I survived a challenging childhood and have become a happy adult. Lots of pep talks from my loving inner parent:) to my wounded and scared inner child.

[AlienHippy]

I mediated and cried when my inner child was feeling weird when I hugged my inner child. That made me cry.
