EPISODE 47
Have you ever experienced a dissonance between knowing that you are loved and really FEELING that you are loved in your body? For the longest time I used to think there was something wrong with me because I couldn't really experience the love that I cognitively believed God loved me with.
In this episode I share about why this dissonance existed and how inner child healing finally helped me to bridge that gap. Inner child work was the practical healing I didn't know I needed to help me experience God's love for me - and my love for myself - in an embodied way.

REFLECTION PROMPT
Listen.
- As you listened to my sharing in this episode, was there anything in today's sharing that really resonated with you?
Ponder.
- Have you ever experienced a dissonance between a reality your brain tells you is true, and how your body feels about it?
Act.
- Write down one or two ways in which you have experienced this kind of dissonance between what your mind tells you and what your body feels.
- Write down what it is that you cognitively believe versus what the reactions of your body is telling you about what you actually believe.
- Do not reject or minimize what your emotion, or your body is trying to say to you, don't try to push it down or rationalize it away.
For full details of this reflection prompt, please see transcript.
