Our behaviours are patterns that we have developed and when we go back to understand why we present with this patterns it gives us a chance to consciously change them. This does not mean we go back and blame your upbringing, but to give you self awareness of your experiences.
Understanding the origins of our behaviours and patterns can provide valuable insights into our thought processes and reactions. It allows us to develop self-awareness and recognise how past experiences may be influencing our present behaviours.
This process of self-reflection is not about blaming our upbringing or external circumstances, but rather gaining clarity on why certain patterns have developed and how they continue to impact our lives. By becoming aware of these patterns, we can consciously choose to change them and make healthier choices moving forward.
Self-awareness is a powerful tool that empowers us to take control of our lives and responses. It allows us to break free from automatic reactions and make intentional decisions that align with our values and aspirations. By understanding ourselves at a deeper level, we can foster personal growth, improve relationships, and create a more fulfilling and authentic life. This journey of self-discovery and transformation opens doors to new possibilities and helps us lead a more conscious and purposeful existence.
Delving further into our patterns and behaviours can also help us identify triggers and vulnerabilities. It gives us the opportunity to work through unresolved emotions and traumas, enabling us to heal and grow.
By understanding the roots of our patterns, we can build self-compassion and extend it to others as well. It becomes easier to empathise with their struggles and behaviours, fostering healthier and more compassionate relationships.
Through this process of conscious change, we can break free from self-limiting beliefs and self-sabotaging tendencies. It empowers us to challenge negative thought patterns and replace them with more positive and affirming ones.
In our journey of self-awareness, we learn that we are not defined solely by our past or our conditioned responses. We gain the power to choose how we want to show up in the present and create a new narrative for our future.
Ultimately, understanding our patterns and consciously changing them allows us to step into our authentic selves. It grants us the freedom to align with our values and pursue the life we desire, unburdened by unconscious limitations.
While this process can be challenging and requires vulnerability, the rewards are immeasurable. Embracing self-awareness and conscious change, we can embark on a transformative path of growth, healing, and self-discovery, leading us towards a more fulfilling and empowered existence.
Things your inner child may need to hear:

– I’m proud of you
A message to those on a journey of self healing:
To the brave soul on the journey of healing your inner child,
I want you to know that you are embarking on a profound and transformative path. It takes courage to confront past wounds and embrace the vulnerable parts of yourself. But remember, you are not alone in this process.
As you dive deep into the recesses of your past, remember that healing is not about dwelling on pain, but about understanding, releasing, and nurturing yourself. Be gentle with yourself as you uncover the layers that shaped you, for healing is a delicate dance of self-compassion.
You may encounter moments of sadness, anger, or even confusion. Embrace them all, for they are a natural part of the healing process. Allow yourself to grieve for the child within who once felt unseen or unheard. Offer that child the love and validation they never received.
In healing your inner child, you are giving yourself the gift of liberation. By nurturing that wounded part of you, you’ll find the strength to break free from old patterns and embrace a brighter, more authentic life.
As you journey through healing, remember to surround yourself with a supportive network of loved ones or seek guidance from compassionate professionals. Share your story with those who can hold space for your healing process, for healing is often most potent when shared.
Above all, know that you are deserving of love, joy, and fulfilment. The journey of healing your inner child can be challenging, but it leads to a profound transformation and a deeper connection with your true self.
Take each step with patience and understanding. Your inner child deserves your gentleness, tenderness, and care. Embrace the journey, for in doing so, you open doors to self-discovery, resilience, and an authentic expression of who you truly are.
May this healing journey be a beautiful testament to your strength and resilience. You have the power within you to heal, grow, and reclaim the love that was always yours to give and receive.
With love and support on your journey,
Dr Lalitaa
