Wellspring 88 – Redondo Beach, California
We all carry within us the imprint of our earliest selves — the inner child who once experienced deep joy, wonder, and, at times, pain. The wounds of childhood do not stay in the past; they shape how we react, connect, and show up in our lives today.
Explore how to recognize and reparent our inner child with compassion. Through guided exercises, experiential practices, and self-inquiry, learn to distinguish between your adaptive child (your conditioned self) and your wise adult (your compassionate self) – and how to shift from reacting to responding with greater self-awareness and love.
If you have ever felt stuck in old patterns, easily triggered in relationships, or unsure how to give yourself the love you needed as a child, this session will offer practical tools and deep insights.
What to expect:
- Learn to recognize when your inner child is driving your reactions
- Understand the coping strategies of the adaptive child and how they still play out
- Develop practical reparenting tools to bring in safety, attunement, and self-compassion
- Experience a deep guided meditation to meet and integrate your inner child
- Cultivate a daily practice of self-nurturing that supports emotional regulation
