“I give myself and myinner child time to grow.
A bird begins its journey into life as an embryo safe inside its shell. There, in the darkness, it has all the nourishment, warmth and protection it needs to develop. From the outside, it seems as though nothing is happening. Yet if left alone until the right time, the chick confidently pecks away the outer shell and emerges into the light ready for life.
Like a bird, I too need time to develop. I too can draw a protective shell of warmth and nourishment around me, feeding my needs, taking all the time I need. It may not look to others as if much is happening and I too may be impatient. Nevertheless, I will pay attention to the quiet wisdom of my inner voice. Then, when I know I’m ready, I will confidently crack my shell and be born into the light.

“I belong to nature and I livewithin the order of nature.
Children begin learning about differences at an early age and one of their first teachers is nature. Children find their place in the natural order through comparisons. They learn that they have power over their actions and they do not have power over other people, the sun and stars or God. My inner child needs information to begin to make distinctions. In my dysfunctional family, I did not learn facts about my body and facts about the natural world. Nature reproduces, but s*x was a shameful secret in my family. All living beings die, but someone’s death was an overwhelming and unresolved experience for my parents.
Today I observe the world about me. I watch leaves in the sunlight. Perhaps I will find a book about the part of nature I am most interested in. Today I will acknowledge that I belong to the world and I am part of nature.

“My body is a miracle.
Look at me! Look at me! My inner child demands that I pay attention to the wonderful way my body responds.
My body is not a briefcase that waits patiently by the door until I am ready to go to work. My body is a miracle and, therefore, I am. My body is a mystery and I am endlessly fascinated by its inner and outer workings.
Today I observe my body in action. I cross the street and marvel at my eyes and ears that are alert to danger as well as beauty. I am aware of my legs that move me from place to place. Even my skin responds to the breeze as it flows against my face. I breathe deeply and marvel at the constant renewing of my body and spirit.
My body’s wisdom and authority fill me with awe and deep comfort.

“The child within meis worthy of love.
A huge stuffed rabbit named Alex sits on my bed. Alex has the distinct privilege of sitting in for my inner child whenever necessary. When the little child within me needs to be comforted, I cradle Alex in my arms and rock him. When my inner child needs a soothing lullaby, I softly sing to Alex. I treat Alex in ways I wish I had been treated as a little one.
Today I will find ways to nurture my inner child. There are many ways I can coax my little one out of hiding. I can buy a book of simple songs and lullabies to sing to my inner child. I can caress away all fear and anxiety with gentle words and melodies.
In my mind’s eye, I will rock my inner child and whisper sweet and silly messages in his ear. He is special and wonderful, worthy of all the love I can give. Today he will be filled with my love.
