3. Greetings and welcome to the enlightening path
of inner child healing. The inner child is an aspect
of each of us that is carried deep within and
contains the feelings, experiences, and memories
of our early years. Childhood traumas and scars
can have a lasting impact on our relationships,
self-image, and views throughout our lives.
However, the wounded inner child has a wealth of
possibilities for development, healing, and
profound self-discovery.
This book takes us on a journey to rediscover the
joy, playfulness, and innocence that may have
been lost along the way, to nurture and heal the
scars of the past, and to rekindle our inner child.

as adults. We can access its knowledge, creativity,

paves the way for healing and growth.
