The child within us...

"Three things are striking about inner child work. The speed with which people change when they do this work, the depth of that change and the power and creativity that results when the wounds from the past are healed." (Google Books)

(Ref. Homecoming: Reclaiming and Championing Your Inner Child, by John Bradshaw).

Most "talking" therapies refer, in some way shape or form, to the "child" that lives on in us throughout our adult lives. The rub - we're all left with "stuff' from our earlier years ;( ... happily, the silver lining - there's potentially a lot of fun, creativity, freedom, ease and peace in there, if we can tap into the often silenced part of us. Amazingly enough, that little person in there is pretty sweet, bright and wise (the kid that we used to be before the world scared the shit out of us and kicked us around pretty good!) Just sayin';). Hugs.

Blessings,
