How did the exercise make you feel? Did you notice how your energy changed after eating what you loved as a kid or what your heart wanted? I certainly did. While that could be one effective way to work with your inner child everyday - asking what it wants to do today - and honouring that, there are other important things to do before you get there.
Here is the simple yet effective way to work with your inner child:
1. Acknowledge.
Do not run away from it. Do not suppress it anymore. Acknowledge your inner child. This can be done by simply closing your eyes and asking your inner child to show up. Oftentimes people see themselves in a younger age from 4 to 7 years. For some, they have more than one inner child and which is perfectly okay. Just acknowledge.
2. Ask.
ASK your inner child how does it feel. It is important to know what it feels. As with any chikd, your inner child wants to be heard too. It may have complaints or suggestions. Listen. Listen to it patiently.
3. Reassure.
Post listening, reassure your inner child. Let them know that you are there for them. All a child needs is the comfort of saftey from its guardians or parents. Tell him/her that you will be the father/mother he/she never had.
Reassure to win the trust of your inner child. This makes them happy.
4. Pamper.
Reassurance is the first step. Your main goal should always, always be, pampering your inner child. This is what makes them genuinely, truly happy. So give them all that they demand for. Be it sweets or toys or your time and affection. Whatever they ask for. Creating stuff out of thin air, in the realm of every and visualization isn't a difficult task. So fulfil their demands and pamper them.
5. Be regular.
Talk to your inner child at least once a day. Ask them how they feel. Ask them how they felt about a certain thing during the day. You may be surprised to come across deeper insights as you do this regularly. Keep in touch. Children do not like being neglected. They demand attention. So be there.
When you follow these steps, you are sure to build a strong and sturdy relationship with your inner child. And believe it or not, it is one of the best relationships to get into. Once you have a strong understanding of your child within, it will become easier for you to become aware of your emotions and let them go with ease. Happiness will become a conscious choice and you will feel the void inside of you fill up with self love. Which in turn will give rise to many benefits at all levels and in all areas of your life.
This children's day, treat your inner child well and take care of it first and foremost. And see how beautifully things change. The key is to be crazy and compassionate at the same time. Only if you know what I mean. I am sure the child within you knows what I mean. Trust.
