About the course
Childhood is perhaps the most crucial period of development in our lives. No matter how old we are, we are growing and changing. But the experiences and changes we go through in childhood and our teen years have an enormous impact on who we become. What happens to us in childhood shapes our health, attitude, personality, and identity.
Some of us have lots of happy memories from childhood. Some of us have lots of painful memories. Most of us have a combination of both. Even if you don’t have major traumas in your past, you could probably benefit from healing past disappointments or buried dreams. Many of us need healing from traumatic childhood experiences. In this module, we will explore some of your childhood stories and you can heal and nurture your inner child.

What you’ll learn
Explore your memories from your childhood
Our childhood years are often the shaping years of our lives, this is the time when we are the most impressionable. There are events that happened to us when we were a child. They could be monumental occurrences that shook our world when we were young or could be a life-changing phase that happened during our childhood. Hence exploring our childhood stories is a means of digging into our memory.
Travel back in time and Speak to your inner child
Childhood stories can come from any part of our past, starting from infancy to our teenage years. We are to dig into various events and stories that occurred during our childhood; They could be one-off incidents or frequent happenings, such as an abusive relationship, a highly stressful period, or an unhappy childhood. The goal is to speak to your inner child to heal whatever is broken and celebrate whatever is beautiful.
Only celebrate what is beautiful in your childhood story
The child in you is so powerful. If you want to produce a future independent of your painful past, you need to unchain your present from your past. The way to do so is to acknowledge your childhood story and then review your life since that childhood event. Only celebrate and meditate on the beautiful moments, let go of any anger, hurt or even betrayal you experienced as a child.
