The more emotions you experience, the more a sacred kind of purging and transformation is happening. Simply gazing at yourself in the mirror and comforting your inner child can be a tremendously healing practice and a powerful form of inner child work. But typically, it’s common to experience heavier and more uncomfortable emotions first.Īlthough this kind of mirror work can be upsetting and unpleasant at times, these feelings point to deeper work that is alchemizing at a subconscious level. You may also experience unexpected bubbles of excitement or joy. When looking into the mirror and trying to reconnect with the inner child, it’s not unusual to feel waves of sadness wash over you. Mirror work is an intensely effective way of helping us to re-establish a connection with this delicate part of ourselves. Thus, learning how to relate to and liberate our inner child is crucial. On the other hand, our inner child also possesses many of our primal and core wounds. The inner child is the part of us that still retains a sense of childlike wonder, spontaneity, creativity, and joy. We all possess an inner child – it’s one of the many archetypes (or patterns of energy) that compose our personality structures. Most of us have numerous abandoned inner parts, but the most common one that we’re disconnected from is the inner child. Another reason why mirror work can make us feel uncomfortable is that it exposes the vulnerable and neglected parts of our inner selves.Īfter all, what better opportunity for that forgotten part to finally grab our attention than face-to-face in front of a mirror?
