Healing The Inner Child

What do we do when we notice we will shut down and not know how to work through a situation? Was it something someone said? Was it a trigger? How do we move past these old debilitating patterns?

HEALING THE INNER CHILD

This past week I had a couple difficulties that I needed to take time to process and understand why I am having a hard time with certain situations.

I will notice I will shut down and not know how to work through a situation.

Throughout the last 5 + years I would often take time to think about where the triggers came from whether it be from my childhood, or early young adulthood years.
Most of the time as I reflect back I find what happened and why it affects me to this day. I never healed from it or fully processed it at the time. Perhaps, I didn’t develop how to.

Many of us experience moments in our lives where we are triggered and cannot figure out how to move forward and most of the time it is a result from something we have not healed from from childhood or our early adulthood.

I encourage you to take time to reflect back on your past long enough to figure out what may have been the root cause. No, I am certainly not a doctor. But Yes, I lived this out of personal experience and sometimes personal experiences is the best teacher, and doctor as you learn to heal and move forward with confidence.

The next time you find yourself stuck in a situation where you cannot seem to move forward in try reflecting back. I also encourage prayer and asking the Lord to help you. He was there with you when it happened and He is willing to walk with you throughout your process
