Childhood trauma leaves invisible scars that shape adult mental health, relationships, and even physical well-being. Discover how early adversity rewires the brain and fuels depression, PTSD, and anxiety and why healing is always possible.
Sometimes your adult anxiety is your inner child still waiting to feel safe. Healing begins when you stop judging your younger self and start listening to them.
a. What Is Childhood Trauma?
Unprocessed emotions from past neglect, shame, or fear that show up as anxiety, perfectionism, or people-pleasing.
b. Recognizing the Inner Child in Daily Life
Signs like overreacting to small triggers or seeking constant reassurance.
c. Steps to Begin Inner Child Healing:
- Visualization meditation (revisit your childhood self safely).
- Write a letter to your younger self.
- Therapy or creative expression like art or dance.
d. Spiritual Perspective on Healing the Past
You’re not broken you’re returning to wholeness. Forgive, release, and nurture the child within
Healing your inner child isn’t about changing the past it’s about changing your relationship with it.
You are not what happened to you; you are what you choose to become.
