Guiding the inner child

Inner children can act impulsively and seem to have their own mind. You may feel upset with someone and the child self acts in an angry and insulting manner. The feelings of the inner child seem to get triggered and just come out. It's better to talk to that child self and acknowledge his or her feelings and validate that the feelings are warranted and that you were not treated with respect. Then you indicate that it's not appropriate to just act out these feelings but that you will decide together how to handle the situation more appropriately in an adult manner. You will discuss different options and choices. Acknowledging and validating the feelings and perceptions of the inner child will be very important in managing situations in life.

Learning to listen to the inner child

When your inner child wants to communicate with you, you may not want to listen because you may feel "negative" feelings. Maybe your inner child wants to give you messages you don' t want to hear. It is often easier to pretend that these feelings don't exist than to listen and understand them. A good plan is to begin to "listen in" and better understand what is being felt. Negative feelings can be a gift to you because they help you grow and change.

Thank You.
