healing my inner child 🤍

Presently trying to heal my inner child is a process that takes time and effort.

Validating my feelings was an important first step. I constantly remind myself that I matter! I like to journal, read, or talk to my best friend because she can help me process and release built-up feelings. Through this journey, I have only surrounded myself with supportive people who I trust.

I also worked on how I view my past experiences. I focused on resilience and personal growth rather than just the pain I went through. I strongly protected my emotional well-being by setting boundaries with people or situations that trigger painful memories.

I know healing is not linear. I feel and process emotions at my own pace. Healing is a personal journey but honestly seeking help makes the process more manageable. I hope one day I can be fully healed.

... Read moreHealing your inner child involves understanding and nurturing your emotional self. Many of us face repressed feelings from childhood that resurface in adulthood, impacting our relationships and mental well-being. Techniques like journaling allow for reflection and emotional release, while talking to trusted friends can provide critical support. Building resilience is essential; focus on personal growth to reshape your perspective on past traumas. Surrounding yourself with supportive individuals creates a safe environment for healing. Remember, it's okay to seek professional help; it often makes the journey smoother. Establishing boundaries is vital to protect yourself from triggers. Embrace the non-linear nature of healing and recognize that everyone moves at their own pace. You are not alone in this, and taking the steps toward healing is a courageous and enriching endeavor. As you traverse this path, acknowledge each small victory, knowing that complete healing takes time and commitment.

I am also in the process of healing my inner child as well. I was always shut down or couldn’t be vocal about many things especially when they confused me and I had to just go along with the program. For a while I felt like I couldn’t be vocal even when I needed help because of that but I’m growing out of it!

One way I tried to heal is by doing things I couldn’t do as a child and tell myself everyday I am going to overcome all of my trauma and I will be a better than I was yesterday
