what did you do today for your inner child?

Buffy01 · Dec 18, 2022, 04:44 PM

I listen to an inner child meditation.

FloatThruThis · Dec 25, 2022, 04:26 PM

I watched A Charlie Brown Christmas.

Nammu · Dec 25, 2022, 05:05 PM

Watched Christmas specials and movies, plus gave gifts.

Buffy01 · Dec 25, 2022, 05:43 PM

I let myself be a kid for Christmas.

I bought a very cute stuffed Lamb Chop toy while shopping in the Fall. It's to replace a long-forgotten Lamb Chop puppet that I loved as a child, and which my mother took from me, prematurely, to give to a charity. (It was a terrible habit she had, doing things like this.)

I have been petting her and talking to her when I wake up and go to sleep at night. It's very comforting.

Buffy01 · Dec 26, 2022, 06:10 PM

I told myself that it would be okay and to walk away.

Unfortunately, I messed up again. I have not helped myself at all today, so far. But will keep trying until tomorrow.

And maybe later?

Keep trying

I crossed the street more quickly and on a shorter route. There was a car coming. It wouldn't have hit me if I hadn't done these things, but something inside me was anxious and so I imagined hugging that part of me and crossed the street as I did, softly speaking in my mind to my younger self that I would never let anything happen to her.

Buffy01 · Dec 27, 2022, 05:39 PM

I pulled my weight blanket up to feel safe.

MuseumGhost · Dec 28, 2022, 02:47 PM

I had chocolate spread on my croissant, for breakfast.

Buffy01 · Dec 28, 2022, 03:23 PM

I gave myself a hug

I changed the username on a site I'm on to " windypops", with the tag line, because I keep letting them go

I think it's hilarious, even now..

Buffy01 · Dec 29, 2022, 05:56 PM

I watch some movies that I knew my inner child would enjoy.

nonightowl · Dec 31, 2022, 02:38 PM

Watched Frosty the Snowman, the original with Jimmy Durante as the narrator. Also usually watch How the Grinch Stole Christmas each year but forgot this time...too much on my mind.

watched the fireworks from my window. I do enjoy them from a safe distance..

Buffy01 · Jan 01, 2023, 10:21 AM

I have started validating my inner child from the emotional abuse I have received from my family..

Jan 06, 2023, 11:38 AM

I listened to my cat on the mat story

I have been trying to listen to it at least once every evening because it's just nice to do

Breaking Dawn · Jan 06, 2023, 01:58 PM

This morning I told her we're having a better day, & that made her feel better.

Buffy01 · Jan 06, 2023, 02:28 PM

I wrapped myself up in my weighted blanket and told my inner child that she is safe.

Jan 15, 2023, 10:48 AM

I listened to the cat on the mat story

and also the haunted basket

Buffy01 · Jan 16, 2023, 11:32 AM

I am the scapegoat of the family.
