Start with sitting quietly for a few minutes. Feel your body, dive into it and see that there are different qualities, some feel light, others may be tensed. First, give attention to the area wherever you locate it, where you feel the deepest calm, warmth. It can always be found but we tend to fixate on tensions and often overlook the harmony and silence.

Second, look for similar quiet areas and rest in each one of them, relaxing into that part.

Finally, open with all that calm as capital also to whatever tensions you experience. Just accept the energy, feel into it without resistance.

Then let the little (your name) come up. Do not preclude what age, or how s/he appears, if possible let her/him arise spontaneously as an image within.

When that impression is there, open your eyes and imagine him/her sitting in front of you (put a chair before you start).

Now first just look at the little one, just looking. Notice how you, the big one feels when looking at the child.

Then get up and switch roles. You take a moment on the seat of the little one to feel how s/he is within him/herself. When you have that impression, raise your eyes and look at the grown-up of today. Notice how it feels when you look at her/him.

That's the first step. Try when you have time and report to me. All the best.

- I wrote this beginning instruction in a chat this morning. The work with the Inner Child is what i call a spiritual therapy because the adult learns to love the child he/she once was.

Usually, spontaneously a great love and tenderness is felt
(i had clients starting to sob within minutes). On that basis, it is easy to extend the love into problematic emotions, the adult encouraging and empowering the child, thereby filling gaps that have been left by the parents.

The next step can be a catharsis when the inner emotions are led back to the parents by the child. What is able to move through these difficult areas is the deep trust and heart-felt friendship between the child and the grown-up.
