Weekly Healing Project #14 | Nov 30 - Dec 6 | Healing the Inner Child & Birth Trauma
Edited on Mon Dec-01-08 04:27 AM by Shallah
I normally try to write a little describing my thoughts and aims behind each week's project. I am coming up blank today but still want to get the project going and will just trust the energy to go where each of us needs it


Suggested Guidelines:
Please send energy to those who sign up along with this thread. This is to charge it to allow anyone who visits it may choose to receive healing healing now and in the future. The suggested times for those who want guidelines are 6:30-7 AM & 6:30-7 PM. You are NOT expected to send the entire half hour or twice a day or even daily :) Those times are just rough guidelines for those who prefer working in a framework. It is up to you to send when and how long *you* feel is appropriate.

All energy healing techniques are welcome whether prayer, Reiki, visualizing colored light, chanting, singing, dancing, crystals or something totally different. The only requirement is it to be sent with the intention that it be for the highest good of all involved in what ever manner serves the recipients best.

You may take part as a sender, receiver or both. Choose which serves you best at this time. For those who prefer to send to a list of recipients please post below that you wish to receive.

Sharing experiences and results are optional but totally welcome if there is anything you feel comfortable sharing :)


When I started working on healing my inner kids as part of other therapy my therapist would guide me through processing the even that left that particular part of me stuck and then encourage me to comfort the inner child. Well at that point in my life I had no self-esteem and felt so unworthy of love that trying to send enough love to that even more needy inner child was impossible. It felt like trying to fill up a black hole of sadness and nothing human could be asked to love that much so I asked my guides/angels for help. I was lucky that the first one who had made herself known to me had introduced herself as my spiritual Mother for this life so I ask her to nurture the child until I could. She was willing and since then many times when a part of me young or old, this or other life time, needed more than the here and now me could provide I ask my spirit Mom or other spirit ally to help. I mention this here in case it may be of help to someone here. If you don't have a particular guide that feels right for the job or have yet to make a conscious connection with your guides you might find it useful to ask for help from a positive mothering spirit being such as Kwan Yin or Mother Mary.

2. A self-healing technique for healing old emotional wounds
Unless you are working with a skilled support person I do not recommend doing this by yourself on anything but minor wounds. I still don't use it by myself for worst things.

Prepare yourself in whatever way you prefer for self healing. Cleanse and shield your space, put on a relaxing cd, ground, invite your guides, take some deep relaxing breaths etc. Once you are ready remember an old incident that you can remember feeling hurt or angry about that still has a emotional charge to it. Pick a small thing that still bothers you a tiny bit when it comes to mind. If you can't think of something old what of letting out something more recent such as someone yanking in front of you stealing your parking space or getting stuck in traffic while worrying/seething about being late. Where is it in your body? If there is a particular spot breathe deeply into that spot. If you do Reiki or other energy channeling send energy to that area and/or breathe light into it. While doing this remember the incident in as much detail as possible and let yourself feel the feelings. Anger, sadness, fear, disappointment - whatever the emotions are remember them all. Feel those feelings and let them flow. There is a balance between letting the emotion flow naturally to release the charge instead of surpressing or wallowing it. If it is an angery memory you can take a pillow and squash, punch or strangle it or growl. Remember to breath as some people tend to hold their breath or breathe shallowly to surpress intense emotion. If you feel the emotional energy in a particular area you can also pull out the energy out of it or the nearest chakra. Simply make pulling motions over that area like you were a magician drawing out a long string of scarves until you feel you have done enough. After it is good to smooth the energy opening shut and place a psychic bandaid of sorts over it. I like picturing a piece of golden mesh or chainmail that I patch over the area. You can also breath in light into that spot after pulling out the stagnent/stuck energy or channel in reiki or other energy.

I like to use these techniques even on small problems as it is good practice for tackling anything more difficult. Also reducing over all stress of repressing shadow stuff is simply that much less stress in my life over all. Another thing is that clearing old stuff makes more room for the GOOD stuff!

My poor inner child still doesn't get enough from me, I'm afraid.

7. My results:
A week or two ago one of my inner kids briefly popped in to say hi as I was trying to sleep. This one is one of the healthiest fragments I have encountered so I guess she broke off (around the time I started school) to avoid getting overwhelmed by something. Up until then I had given myself a nickname to describe this fiesty part of me and then I just stopped using it. It was great to see this part of me was still around and gave her a mental hug. My feeling that I wasn't ready for her energy and not that she needed healing before melding.

She showed up again early this week again as I was starting to drift to sleep while I was doing some chakra clearing. I was shocked to see her again because now she was several years older just starting adolescence. She was all dressed up in an outfit something like a cross between Luke Skywalker and samurai robes complete with swords! The girl must have been hanging out with Kali since I showed my inner kids how to go to visit my guides :D She also wore jewelry from a circlet with some gem over the third eye (maybe it was moonstone) to armlets and bracelets. She indicated she was ready to join me and I asked if she was sure. I felt full of yuk and didn't want to bring her energy down to mine. She insisted so I said yes at which point she stepped into me. I thought this was going to be interesting to see what happens next and then fell asleep.
