Opening to the Inner Child

Reconnecting with our inner child is like finding our way back home. Our inner child is the treasure keeper of what we had to leave behind in the process of growing up and becoming an adult. The inner child reminds us of how we once were in the past: in wonder, curious, trusting, and carefree. The days felt like a never-ending adventure. We were not yet exposed to grown-up’s problems like needing to be better, to be strong, to be more intelligent. All this to climb the ladder of success with a promise of fame and wealth in the future, and if at all we reach there, it never seems to satisfy us.

An invitation to become your real you again

“Meditation simply means learning to forget all that you have learned. It is a process of deconditioning, a process of dehypnosis.”  Osho

 
Some of the natural qualities of a child are innocence, playfulness, curiosity, radiance, joy, being non-serious and a sense of wonder about the mystery of life. Rather than supporting these qualities, parents and society force their own values onto the child’s vulnerable mind and vital, spontaneous impulses are slowly repressed.

For some of us this happens really early, but somehow sooner than later all of us are asked to become little performers. We learn how to please our caregivers and parents to receive the love and care we so deeply depend on for our survival.

Opening to the Inner Child is going on an adventure again. Re-discovering this precious part inside all of us. We will uncover the layers of emotional hurt that prevents us to reconnect with our inner child. We are invited to feel, give expression so the barrier can dissolve in a loving atmosphere. The result is a space of meditative awareness in which the natural child, with all its aliveness, can re-emerge.

WHY ATTEND THIS COURSE?

A healing journey to support and nourish communication and union between the adult part of ourselves and the child who lives inside us – and is so ready to enrich our lives.

If we want to live our adult life with truth, love, trust, and happiness, we need to turn inwards and reconnect with our inner child. This child was born sensitive, open, and is still connected to oneness.

“The spring is there, and the fresh water is still running there but rocks have been put around you. You have been blocked. Once those rocks have been taken away again you will become a child. It will be a rebirth. Again, you will start flowing. Again, your eyes will have luster and your face will have joy. Again, you will become luminous.”  Osho
