Today, when I was able to stand aside from my experience and witness the rollercoaster of emotions and thoughts that have had my undivided attention over the last few months, I was looking for a softer way to hold my process. In talking with a guide recently, I was reminded to pray as if all that you desire has happened and ask the divine to make it real. I’ve also been putting attention on connecting to the child within me daily and seeing what she needs each day and how she’s feeling about what I’m up to.
I wanted to create a ritual or practice that would enliven this dialogue in a mode of prayer, so felt the inspiration to record the following appreciation blessings for the inner child. Also, these can be shared with a spouse, partner, or friend — picking one each day to reflect on your appreciation for each other as well as for the other person to lovingly acknowledge the inner child in themselves. So, you can print these out and cut them into slices of love and serve with whipped cream! or create your own blessings of choice!
