Book excerpt: Your subconscious mind, also known as your inner child, is heavily influenced by the experiences you had in the past – even when they’re not experiences you consciously think about. If you struggle with self-doubt or anxiety and find it difficult to embrace new experiences, there’s a high chance that your inner child is crying out for help. That child is no stranger… that child is you, and their experiences are still shaping the ones you have today. You'll discover: • What inner child healing is and what it truly entails • The most prevalent types of childhood wounds • The best ways to connect with your wounded inner child, reparent yourself and finally heal that wounded inner child • The most effective practices for dealing with trauma triggers and developing healthy coping mechanisms • Strategies and tips for healing shame, anger, and feelings of abandonment Every human progresses through life on a natural path of emotional growth and fulfillment. However, a trauma in early life can stop that growth, causing the child to develop defense mechanisms in order to survive their dangerous or abusive surroundings. These mechanisms are essential as children, but as adults, they become pathological behaviors that can alienate loved ones and destroy relationships. You may think that you have left childhood far behind you, but the child that was traumatized lives in on inside the adult.
