02 Ep# 495 The Little Way Inner Child Visualization Exercise

Are you curious? What does your inner child's voice sound like?Show more

This episode, perhaps more than any other I've ever done, has the power to change your life. Ask Little Therese for that grace.

When we protect and provide love and radical acceptance for our inner child, she glows and warms up inside. We have the inner freedom to breathe more easily and try new things. We know we can tolerate failure or mess ups. We can deal with minor amounts of guilt or shame without getting eaten up with fear. We don't get stuck desperately needing approval from others. Our inner child needs to find safety in the world so she can come out and play and be an active part of our life. It's the child parts that allow us to be creative and wondrous, as the psalmist says.
