Understanding How Inner Child Wounds Originate

Children can experience wounds when they are not treated with full dignity and respect, leading to emotional and relational scars. Instances like scolding a shy child for needing more time to adjust can create wounds where the child feels something is wrong with them, leading to a lack of self-trust. These early wounds can manifest later in life when individuals struggle with trusting their own feelings and internal feedback, impacting their ability to navigate relationships and environments with confidence.
