Inner child healing is a journey of pruning and blooming💐
As someone who has done quite a bit of inner child healing and supported others on their journey to inner child healing, one thing I have been reminded is that on the other side of that inner child is an adult that has built their life through the lens of that inner child’s needs.
This means that as you heal, those relationships, coping skills, habits, loves, hates….those things might start feeling like strangers or like someone you knew from somewhere but couldn’t recall. They will just stop fitting like they used to…this is a part of the process of aligning your inner child’s needs with the life you are created to live today. You will be okay, just know that pruning is a part of the process.
With love and so much brown heart,
Samantha

What relationships, habits, or beliefs in my life currently feel like strangers or things I’m outgrowing? How do I feel about these changes, and what are they revealing about my inner child’s needs versus my adult self’s desires?
What new desires or needs are emerging as I heal my inner child? How can I honor these evolving parts of myself while also embracing the discomfort that comes with change?
Where in my life do I need to ‘prune’ or let go to create space for growth that aligns with my true self today? How can I do this with compassion, understanding that it’s a natural part of my healing journey?
