When you’re ready, ask your inner child your question, e.g. “When
was the first time you/I  felt sad or scared?” You might like to phrase
the question in child terminology.
• Await their response.
• Make sure you hug them, thank them, and tell them how much they
mean to you.
• Say goodbye to them.
• Leave your power place and ascend up the stairs.
• Return to normal consciousness.
These are very basic steps, but they provide a good outline of how to
perform an inner child visualisation journey.
Final Thoughts
As children we perceived the world very differently from our adult selves.
Because of this, many of the things we presently assume never hurt us as
children may have left deep scars. This is why it’s important to never make
assumptions about your inner child.
Through inner child work, you can learn to grieve, heal and resolve any
sources of trauma you’ve been unconsciously holding on to for years. This
can liberate you and allow you to live a life of true adulthood, emotional
balance and wellbeing.
I hope this article has inspired you to reconnect with your inner child. Tell
me, what ways have you learned to heal the trauma from your childhood?
