Side note of my random aha moment: Later during the video we talk about learning to love the little one inside which is based on the work of Dr. Carl Jung who believed that we have many different parts within ourselves that we need to befriend and be at peace with, in order to be a whole integrated human being.

Parents do their best but we’ve all received messages that we aren’t good enough or don’t measure up.

We need to heal that inner wounded part of ourselves and accept it because that inner child is going to be an integral part of who we are and our ability to embrace life, have fun and be joyful.

There is so much wounding around this in our society! We create a belief that If I could just obey/follow the rules my parents will love me.

The basic need of every child is to have the approval of their parents ~ which when we are children, our parents or caregivers (teachers, priests, pastors, family, friends, etc.) are our gods.
