Re: Truthful inner child

Hi there; this is a beautifull piece of writing!

I have been wondering searching and and trying to find answers about how to connect with my inner child, for a good few weeks now!
This post has opened my eyes; i often wondered about the things my mind was saying to me, that little voice asking i wonder what they'll say to this? and the analogy of the e-mail was brilliant!

I did a CBT earlier in the year and this has been very good, but it wasnt able to go deep enough to combat the abuse issues i was subjected to from an early age; i am attending counselling for it all. Part of that CBT talks about dealing with thoughts; isnt this a brilliant way to get in contact with your inner child?? i think so! That to me is a GREAT connecting point!
I thank you for this post!From the bottom of my heart!! This has opened my eyes and woken my inner self to what my inner child is saying to me; before i learned that when a thought arises, dont challenge it, just let it be and carry on with what i was doing. Then i was shown that i could with experience, start to challenge the thoughts! Not argue, but challenge them!
I can do this with my inner child; not scold him, but ask him where this idea, thought, or impulse is coming from, and then look at it together and see what it is he really means!
Once again, thanks; i did have a feeling that the "thought detective" part had a bit more depth to it! and now i know why!
