This meditation is for you to connect with your inner child,

Creating a bond within yourself as a tool to clear any blocks to your truth,

Your worthiness,

And any self-limiting beliefs that you might have carried within and lived up to until now.

This process of inner child healing is really about discovering how to connect with your natural self,

Your true self,

Which is your inner child,

And to release any disconnect you hold within yourself.

Learning to connect with your inner child is learning to be a loving adult to the parts of you that feel any conflict,

Scarcity,

Or dis-ease.

Come to a comfortable position,

Whether you're sitting or lying down.

Allow your fingers to relax,

Your arms,

Your shoulders to relax.

Allow the toes,

The legs,

To relax here as well.

Allow your eyes to close down.

And begin to find the breath.

Consciously breathing in through your nose.

And begin to release the breath out of your mouth.

Taking a full breath into the nose.

And a deep exhale through the mouth.

Again,

Full breath in through the nose.

Full breath out of your mouth.

Releasing any tension or dis-ease felt within your body at this moment.

Begin to feel your face relax,

Your jaw softening,

The space between your eyebrows softening.

Allowing the entire body to soften and relax as you follow along to the sounds of this meditation.

Your inner child is your natural state.

The part of you that's looking for love,

Acceptance,

Self-worth.

As children we often experience big or small trauma.

We have limited beliefs projected onto us.

And absorb situations and experiences outside of ourselves that we believe to be true for us.

As we grow into adults,

We're consciously learning to reparent ourselves and create this inner bond.

Think of your inner child as a representation to your feelings and emotions on an internal level.

And think of your inner adult as you being able to take action on your life.

All feelings,

Thoughts,

Or emotions that you might have throughout this meditation are fully welcome in this space.

Giving yourself full permission to feel,

To embody what comes to the surface for you.

As you take a deep breath,

Imagine a glowing white light surrounding you.

Bringing you back in time,

Imagining yourself as a child.

Holding this vision and this image of yourself at age 3,

5,

7,

Or any other age that comes to mind is absolutely perfect.

Seeing yourself as a small child,

Innocent,

Full of love to give.

Take a moment to really notice them.

What they're wearing.

Maybe what they're holding or carrying.

And allow yourself to come to a comfortable,

Safe,

Supportive eye level with your inner child.

Encouraging them that it's safe to be close to you.

Begin to take a deep breath.

And feel the connection and the bond that you're creating with your inner child.

Begin to imagine yourself asking your inner child what they have to say.

As you ask this question,

Shift your intent to be loving,

Connected,

Open,

Vulnerable,

And receptive.

Allowing both yourself and your inner child to experience any emotions or feelings that surface.

Being willing to experience,

Accept,

And honor them.

This intent to be open and willing to feel now creates the space for the inner child's emotions to be recognized,

Accepted,

And loved regardless.

And doing so means you're open and willing to explore past and present pain.

And to take responsibility for healing and bringing yourself into a state of joy.

Listening with your adult mind to what your inner child has to say.

And let the answer effortlessly float up into your consciousness.

The answer might come to you as a word or even a feeling.

Let your expectation just hold a loving,

Open space to receive the answer.

Begin repeating to yourself.

It was never your fault.

You were a vulnerable child.

You have always been worthy of love.

You are allowed to have boundaries.

It's okay to say no.

And it's okay to say yes.

You are perfect in every way.

You are heard.

You are safe.

I forgive you.

I love everything about you.

Take a moment.

If there's anything else that you'd like your inner child to hear.

Gently and lovingly say it to yourself now.

If you're feeling any emotion,

Tension,

Or tightness within the body.

While you're sitting in this meditation.

You can always use your fingers to gently tap on any of the areas of the body that are talking to you.

Reminding yourself that you are safe.

That you are worthy.

And that it's okay to feel what you're feeling.

Take a deep breath in through your nose.

And a full exhale out of your mouth.

Solidifying this bond.

In connection with your inner child.

Knowing that you can always ask a question to receive a clear answer to guide yourself inward to your own healing.

Take a moment and visualize giving your inner child a gift.

Expressing your connection and love.

Now imagine yourself giving this gift.

To your inner child and letting them know.

I'm here with you now.

I'm not going anywhere.

You never have to feel alone.

I will listen to you and take care of you.

You and your feelings are so important to me.

Imagine the feeling as you wrap your arms around your inner child.

And feel the warmth of that love reciprocating itself around you too.

Come back to seeing a bright white light surrounding your inner child.

Then imagine this bright light shining into your heart space.

As your inner child bonds right back within you.

Full of love,

Worthiness,

Acceptance and receptivity.

Take a deep breath in through your nose.

Open your mouth for a full exhale.

Start to return back into the room.

Making subtle movements with your fingers and toes.

Shifting your head from left to right.

Softly blinking the eyes open.

Arriving back into your space.

Full of love,

Connection and safety.

Carrying your inner child and the acceptance of loving yourself with you throughout the rest of the day.

You are so deeply worthy.

You are so deeply loved.

Definitely cried but it was a cleansing cry. She really needed to hear me say: I’ve got you. You will never be alone again because I’m here for us. You don’t need to feel understood to feel loved. You are not a burden. Loving you is not a burden. Taking care of you is not a burden but the most high honor.

Beautiful meditation. My inner child is still so hurt and shut down, still so mistrustful. I will be working through this meditation a few times to give her the love and support she needs. I felt the progress, but there is a lot to heal.
