Your inner parent

It isn’t just your inner child in there. She’s not living alone, because our inner parent supervises her. Listen in. Is she being offered loving, supportive, kind, encouraging words? ‘You are such an awesome girl,’ ‘I really love you,’ ‘You’re so incredible and thoughtful,’ ‘You’re good enough just as you are.’ Or is it more like this: ‘You’re doing that wrong,’ ‘What will so and so say,’ ‘You are so useless, can’t you get anything right,’ ‘Why are you always late? You’re so disorganized!’ ‘You can’t wear that. Look, you have back fat!’ Yeah, thought that might be the case. Informing child protection about her evil ways right now, aren’t you? Perhaps it’s time to send your inner parent to parenting classes? Replace the nagging with encouragement. Criticism with kindness. Anger with love. Change the stories she tells and the words she uses.

Here are some inner parent loves:

You have the freedom and power to make your own choices.

Do what you want to do. You have my permission to be ‘selfish.’

Always make time for the things you want to do.

Choose who is part of your life. Keep those who make you feel sparkly, and forget those who bring you down.

Live and love harder.

Give yourself time to enjoy your achievements.

Remember, you have all the time you need.

Laugh, sing, dance, play, and have fun every single day.

Use seriousness and inflexibility as your cue to inject some nonsense.

If you’re sad, cry. If you’re hurt, share it. Let it all out.

Allow yourself to be vulnerable.

You don’t always have to do things for other people.

Allow others to do things for you.

Make your own rules.

Make happiness, joy, and excitement the cornerstones of your life.

Let yourself feel sad, anxious, upset, and worried – as long as you share it.

Come up with solutions; it’s okay if no one else agrees.

Take risks and make mistakes.

Let your imagination run wild.

Be honest with yourself.

When you’re angry, be angry.

Make your own decisions.

Love and be loved by someone.
