We have been talking about parenting our inner child on my shows this month and will continue to bring more information on this process.The holidays will bring emotional memories called the "blues" to the inner child.As we are told that "Christmas" is for the children we are now an adult with an inner child with magical feelings we have been programmed about "Santa Claus" and need to be good or bad to receive gifts.The placement in our minds about "Santa" being a representation of "Jesus the Christ child" and to think the gifts were for Jesus.What this programming did was cause confusion. The good child gets gifts and the bad child is getting nothing for Christmas. Most adults are still that inner child and find that they are judging the inner child for being so emotional about anything that is not mature.So playing or laughing when they are not children anymore at this time of the year is just not right or proper.So depression of the feelings that are repressed cause the blues.Some adults over do the shopping for their children or drink to avoid the memories that are all around them as the songs and decoration bring memories of the inner child.Coping skills of the inner child shut down because of the overload of so many reminders.Letting go the thoughts of your inner child can be a good coping skill you can be applied. Don't judge your inner child for the magical spiritual feelings of the holidays. Go to churches even if it is only that time of the years you go there.Many churches judge when people choose to go only once a year to church.Don't let judgment by others and yourself to prevent your help your spiritual needs of the inner child.We can use this time of the years to do the inner child work we need.When we are faced with having conversation with our friends and families we don't talk to but, once a year we need to open and receptive to their topics of their lives and just listen to them.They will judge you because you haven't connected with them the rest of the year.Don't take this judgment serious you can do anything about your inner child feelings that they are attacking.When any attack comes to an adult the inner child sufferers. Keep in mind that you are an adult and have left the family even though they will remind you they brought you into this world and you are accountable to them.This judgment will come because of guilt and you are not the child you are the adult with an inner child that is very emotional.Speak softly to your inner child and remind your inner child that as the adult I will keep you safe and secure.Coping with the holidays, you need to listen to the inner child as it has issues of insecurities. You will need to say no or yes instead of complaining or created excuses. Your free will to choose is being tested by your emotions of the inner child.The child may want to do everything to please others and the adult is not willing to do that.At this point, you have a spiritual battle of the will. There is a battle within the inner child and the adult on many choices every day they just become more difficult during this time of sharing and caring.If you have a program that the holidays are going to be negative, you need to address this right now this sets you up before you even get into the magic you can create in this love energy of the holidays.
