Today, we're going to define inner child healing (and the inner child concept), and we're going to start figuring out how to start healing your inner child after narcissistic abuse.

Whatever you are today is the result of your experiences up to this point - this includes your problems, strengths, habits and level of self-esteem. In every age category, from birth to infant and child to adolescent, you have met distinct and specific challenges. As someone who has experienced toxic abuse at the hands of a narcissist, you may need to work on healing your inner child.

What is inner child healing after narcissistic abuse all about?

In most cases, if the people around you raised you in a natural and healthy way, you would turn out to be a well-balanced and relatively strong person. However, if your childhood experiences are filled with traumas and problems (as they mmost likely were if you were raised by a toxic narcissist), these past incidents have had a significant impact on who you are as a person, at least the way you are today. To understand this topic, you have to understand the concept of inner child.

In today's video, we're going to discover what an inner child is and how you can begin to heal yours - the basics of our whole-week series.

Do you know what inner child is?

Your inner child is your friendly, joyful, emotional, tactile, playful, excitable and feeling side. The state of your inner child will vary depending on your mood and energy level. Sometimes, you will feel indifferent (as in dissociation or other PTSD symptoms) depending on the current situations of your outer life. When you're experiencing gaslighting and other toxic forms of narcissistic manipulation, your inner child will react and you'll find yourself regressing in so many ways. Today, we're going to start healing our inner kids and start growing our new, better lives - the ones we really deserve.
