Brighthill Healing Center: Inner Child Meditation

Inner child meditation
The following meditation is taken from our forthcoming Inner Child workshop. I offer it here because it's incredibly healing and can have other uses. For an inner child meditation, focus on your inner child. This can help you see yourself more compassionately, and with understanding. You can also use this meditation to help you with difficult relationships. If you're having a hard time liking someone or being compassionate toward them, focus on that person while doing this meditation. You will see what you need to see to help you heal it and move forward. Preparing for the meditation Sit in a comfortable chair and relax. Take at least 3 deep breaths, inhaling through the nose, and exhaling forcefully through the mouth. Mentally ask Archangel Michael to cut any cords that are blocking your healing for this issue. Also ask Archangel Azrael, Raphael, and Metatron to assist you in the meditation. Take a few moments and feel them come in for you and comfort you. The meditation Look within and visualize your inner child. See your inner child with all of the issues and baggage that he or she has accumulated. See your inner child with all of those traits in yourself that you dislike. See the mess that you imagine your inner child to be, and all the things that make him or her imperfect in your eyes. Sit with this a moment. How do you feel about your inner child? About yourself? How does all of this feel? Now, take a magic eraser and scrub away all of the issues, baggage, imperfections, and traits that you dislike. Scrub them all away from your inner child and look to see what's underneath. What is underneath? With all of these things gone, what is left? What do you see? What does your inner child look like? Sit with this a moment. Connect with what you see. What feelings come up? What memories? Be with this vision, and come back when you are ready. After the meditation I highly recommend journaling your thoughts, feelings, and experience. Know that all of the things that were removed by your magic eraser are not really part of you. The magic eraser simply helps to reveal the real you.
