Deep dives

Understanding Inner Child Healing

Inner child healing involves recognizing and addressing unmet emotional needs from childhood, which can significantly impact adult life. Many challenges faced today may stem from emotions that were not expressed or nurtured as children. The podcast discusses how when individuals project their need to 'fix' others, they inadvertently affirm a belief that those individuals are broken, perpetuating unhealthy cycles. By visualizing the inner child as whole rather than wounded, one can begin the process of nurturing and healing, ultimately transforming personal relationships and self-perception.
