Learn to Dialogue with Your Inner Child
Now that you have begun to meet your wounded self and your true self, you can learn to dialogue with them for healing. When doing an Inner Bonding process, it’s important not to skip any steps. Here we will be reviewing steps 1 and 2, because each time you do an Inner Bonding process, you need to take the time to do each step fully before moving on to the next step. The more you practice each step, the more natural it will become to do these steps in order and the more you will see why it’s so important not to skip a step.
Start with step 1, breathing into your body, scanning your body for physical sensations, getting present with your feelings, and making a conscious decision that you want responsibility for your feelings.
Move into step 2, putting your hands on your heart, breathing into your heart, consciously choosing the intent to learn about loving yourself, and inviting the presence of your Divine guidance—of love and compassion—into your heart. Invite your Divine guidance to be with you as you explore, so that you can be a loving adult with your inner child and with your wounded self.
Now that you are present with your feelings and you are operating as a loving adult in this moment, you can move into the dialogue processes that are step 3. If you are feeling wounded feelings, such as anxiety, stress, depression, anger, guilt, shame, aloneness, emptiness, jealousy, rage, or resentment, ask your inner child the following questions.
What am I telling you that is causing these feelings?
How am I treating you that is causing these feelings?
What am I doing or not doing that is causing you to feel this way?
What am I doing that is making you feel rejected and abandoned by me and that is causing these feelings?
After asking these questions from your loving adult, breathe inside your body, breathing into the places of emotional or physical pain. Focus inside, allowing the answers to come from within—from the feelings—not from your mind.
Now, ask the questions, go inside, and write what your inner child wants to tell you.
