Self- Discipline

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR INNER CHILD Who do they like to spend time with? What do they like to do? What TV shows do they enjoy? Who do they feel safe with? Who are they scared of? What do they need when they are around those scary people? What do they need when you are stressed or sad? What lights them up? If they could do anything with you tomorrow, what would it be?

Negative Thinking

Jennifer June 19, 2022

Sometimes it can feel like it is impossible to stop the negative thinking. I know. I have been there. When nothing, like nothing, works.  It happens mostly when we are stressed or anxious about a particular topic and our mind …

Things our Inner Child likes to hear: Things our Inner Child likes to hear: It’s okay, we made a mistake. I’m here for you It’s okay to have fun. You need time to play It’s okay if you feel scared. I’m here for you It’s not okay to be spoken to like that. I’ll put a boundary in place I love you just as you are I love you no matter what mistakes you make I respect you You are beautiful on the inside and outside You are a wonderful person You didn’t deserve what happened to you I’m sorry that happened to you

Things Our Inner Child Likes To Hear:

Jennifer June 19, 2022

Part of the re-parenting process is the process of shifting our self-talk.  I like to imagine that whenever I think something in my head, I am talking to myself and my inner child. I have a rule: If I wouldn’t …

Reconnection to the Inner Child

Jennifer June 19, 2022

Fathers and Sons

Jennifer June 19, 2022

Recognising The Father Wound THE PROTECTOR (creates a hard shell) I don’t need his love; I’ll shut down my deep yearning to be close. I’ll try to punish him for not loving me. I’ll be tough. I find weakness repulsive. I don’t care what he thinks or wants. I’ll do what I like (rebel). As an adult tends to: Deny own deep need to be loved and accepted Be wary of men Expect to be rejected by men Keeps one foot in and one foot out of relationships Can be called “hard to get to know.”

Recognising The Father Wound

Jennifer June 19, 2022

The father wound is passed down through family lines. It comes about because of the father’s unhealed trauma and inner wounds. Without healing, these wounds are passed to his children. All children are hard-wired for love. Children yearn for the …
