How do we know that our Inner Child is present?
When you are truly feeling your feelings, you are allowing your inner child to be. Your inner child is active when you are being playful, spontaneous, creative, intuitive and surrendering to the spiritual self. When you experience

joy, sadness, anger, fear or affection your child within is coming out.

When the inner child is wounded.
Almost all of us have some inner child healing to do. It is hard for us to be whole and happy adults without bringing the inner child into our lives and thereby healing it.

When we meet our inner child, we often discover that some of our ove, guidance, respect, trust and safety. The lack of these basic needs may have brought about a state of chronic anxiety, fear, shame, anger and despair in our inner child.

NB: it is important to remember, only you can re-parent your inner child. No one can do it for you. Only you are responsible for Knowing and meeting your inner Child’s needs. Thus, if you have been seeking validation from people or wrong things it’s time to look from within and

re-evaluate your life. Inner child healing also helps you stop rescuing other people’s abandoned and abused inner children (trying to fix people or making them projects). Re-parenting an inner child is an individual’s responsibility.
