Creating a New World

Yesterday I had a session with a healer and told her that I wanted to work on emotional issues. “Okay,” she responded, and we were off delving into the ways that current issues trigger little girl responses that pop up without my being aware of them. It’s one thing to understand how I as an adult understand and process things, but the inner child who harbors subconscious responses has quite a bit of power to tell the story that swirls around in my head.

I imagined myself as a four-year-old and let myself go the pure, unreasonable place in her head. I observed her kicking and punching, and saying things that I don’t remember her ever saying. It was not aimed at any particular person, just a general statement of defiance. I imagined what I’ve heard my grandchildren say.

“You can’t make me! You are not the boss of me! I hate you! You are so mean! Shut up!”

Slamming a door and saying, “Go away! I’m not ready to talk to you! I don’t like you right now!”

It felt really good. My negative feelings melted away freeing energy to let the wiser adult take over. I realized that my inner child accompanies me throughout life, and has her say whether I ask for it or not. It feels better to understand that and let her know that I hear her. If you decide to try this and listen to your inner child, leave some time to take her out for ice cream. She deserves a treat after such hard work.
