Healing of the emotional child

24/12/06 Healing of the emotional child.

Healing of the inner child is what will bring release in the emotional area of your life. Your emotions are stunted at the time when you were traumatised as a child and no growth was possible. This arrest is then covered up by layers of defence so that the growth of the emotional child is not possible. The adult then covers up through building walls in terms of intellectual or financial securities. This gives a false impression of coping till the emotional child is threatened through a crisis. Men can build walls of protection through their gifts and talents but this can never heal that child. This is why close confiding relationships are important. Through these relationships the emotional child can trust again and be healed. The distortions in the present of past hurtful relationships is very real. The past can only interfere with the present if those hurts are not released to healing. Therefore the way forward is to release those areas for healing. This is only possible by confronting them. Hiding from them is to keep secrets that will continue to rob you of a vibrant present. When there is no more fear then you know that you have faced the enemies of the past and now can live in a fear free present. Death itself the final enemy has no more power over you.
