There is a lot of emotional luggage we sometimes carry from childhood. We keep it with us, and sometimes we let it sit on our front seats, and even to cover our windows. We take the pain, but we do not read the instructions. And often, we do not take the responsibility for where this luggage sits today. There is a lot of work to fix the past. And it's very important. But to do that you need to realize first that once you become an adult, you need to look at that inner child and care for its current needs. You got little attention when you were a baby. -> Heal that by offering yourself attention when and where it feels to have mattered most then. You were bullied in school or at home? -> Create a safe space for your inner child to express him/herself. You were pressured to be perfect. -> Be honest about your imperfections and grateful, because they make your life different than a photocopy of anybody else's. Looking not at what you did not have as a child, but at what you can offer that child now might change a lot of your current narrative. Because your body may have matured, but some of your emotional mechanisms never got to. And never will, unless you give them the chance to. So nurture, care for, pay attention, show up, be the cheerleader for the kid you once were. It makes a world of a difference. With this in mind, is there something you will be giving yourself as a gift for the Holidays?
Postarea asta vine la fix, intr-o zi in care vad multi inner children in grupul de parinti de la scoala care militeaza fiecare pentru dorinta lui 🥹😊😅. Le-as trimite postarea dar cred ca se supara pe mine 😁
Greu topic. In ultimii 5 ani am inceput sa ma caut... De vreun an vad ceva diferente notabile si tot departe sunt. :)
I love your analysis and the advices you gave us! There is not perfection, it just us, different, unic and with our own type of development!
I love how this highlights responsibility over blame. Inner healing is about action, not just reflection.
This is awesome advice, Alina Bota-Tăbușcă.
Be oneself's cheerleader? That's a lesson many of us should learn!
It is 💯 true...and very havy sometinrs

1moAlina Bota-Tăbușcă Caring for our inner child is indeed like being both the parent and the friend we always needed. And hey, maybe the gift we give ourselves this holiday season isn’t just something shiny under the tree, but something that doesn’t fit in a box: attention, self-kindness, or a long overdue apology to that little kid inside.
