Inner Bonding©
Overview
Inner Bonding© is a self-healing process that heals feelings of aloneness by building an Inner Loving Adult who is constantly connected with your Inner Child/feelings and with your Higher Guidance/Higher Self.
The way we treat our Inner Child determines our sense of worth
Growing up, many of us didn't have parents who role-modeled personal responsibility and who unconditionally loved us. As children, we created a false belief system based on how we saw our parents treat each other, themselves and us. Although our false beliefs helped us to survive our childhood, they no longer serve us and are now causing our pain.
What is truly loving to ourselves is truly loving to others.
The Six Steps of Inner Bonding© give us a way to uncover our false beliefs, heal our childhood trauma and release our creativity, passion and joy.
The Six Steps
1. Be willing to feel your feelings by not acting on your addictions; tune into your feelings; take personal responsibility for causing your feelings in the present.
2. Move into an intent to learn about how and why you are causing your feelings; move into compassion for having these feelings rather than self-judgment.
3. Dialogue with your wounded child (your false beliefs/painful feelings) and your core child (your true essence) to explore your feelings, false beliefs and childhood memories; allow your inner child to release feelings including anger and sadness.
4. Dialogue with your Higher Power/Higher Self to discover the truth about your false beliefs; identify the loving action(s) that will make your wounded child feel loved and safe.
5. Take the loving action(s).
6. Evaluate the action(s): Are you feeling more self-worth?
