One spirit guide that might be the most personal to us, is our inner child. This guide can be accessed at anytime and will always be with you – the unique thing about this guide is you can send as much love and guidance back to it as they send to you. They’re here to help you heal, grow, play, dream, and just walk alongside you all through your life.

This blog is to talk about practices that have worked for me – but I know everyone’s childhood experiences differ and if this subject is too much, please don’t push yourself to do anything that is too difficult (and use that approach for all spiritual practices! There is nothing wrong with not participating in something and instead getting professional guidance to work through wounds).

Why Connect with Your Inner Child

I have loved connecting with the inner child guide – she is the sweetest, most creative, and insightful guide I have. Here’s some reasons to connect with your inner child:

  • Healing
  • Connection
  • Tap into your creativity
  • Give yourself something your adult self might have a hard time doing
  • Play

How to Connect with Your Inner Child

Here’s some practices you can do to connect with your guide:

  • Make a list of all of the things you loved doing as a kid
  • Make a list of all of the things you wanted to do as a kid but never do
  • Think about who you wanted to be when you were a kid
  • Meditate with them in your heart space
  • Send them the love they wished they had as a kid
  • Write a letter to your inner child, say everything you want them to know
  • Write a letter from your inner child
  • Reparent yourself
  • Play as if you are you as a kid

I hope this gives you some ideas for how to get started with a connection with your inner child spirit guide!

  1. These are good techniques, but my inner child has a lot of wounds, so I work with a therapist on healing them. I might write a letter to it though. 🙂

    1. Absolutely! Everyone’s experiences are different so how we’ll heal will be unique too. That’s awesome that you’re taking the steps that work for you to process through your own journey! If you write the letter I hope it goes well for you!

      1. Thanks friend. 🙂
