I’m not going to lie, dealing with my childhood wounds was painful. There is a lot of shame, anger, frustration, and guilt around that life period. I would hear people talking about a happy life and I would immediately shut myself down from any conversation and discussion. I believed that a happy life is not for me. It’s only for chosen ones and that was not me.
I was following the well-known path the society convinced me that is the right one ━ a highway to a happy life, but that made me even more miserable. The more I tried, the more I felt like a big failure. So instead of listening to the voice inside of me, I looked outward…I read hundreds of self-development books and watched a tone of videos with world-class teachers on how to create a happy life. But in all honesty, nothing changed.
This made me question myself.. is a happy life just an illusion? If tools that bestsellers and world-leading teachers are promising don’t work, WHAT IS WORKING?
I was frustrated and angry… what is wrong with me?
And it turned out that it’s NOT books and teachers that are going to change my life, it was healing my childhood wounds! I had to learn how to HEAL my inner child from a DEEPER perspective and allowing the past to be revealed again. That required revisiting my old burred memories from the childhood that made me who I am today. It was like looking into my old diary, seeing how my experience allows me to see and understand my clients’ pain and how to help them overcome any shame, guilt, blame, and anger … even if they couldn’t see the way out.
As I helped my clients heal their childhood wounds to find deep love and understanding for who they are and people from their past with new loving eyes… resulted in having a life that sparks joy, excitement, and love.
