Inner Child Retreat April 2025

We have all heard of our Inner Child, but how well do we really know them? How much time have we genuinely offered them? What if that child was wounded, silenced or hurt in some way? What is the impact in our lives today, and what can we do to help them heal?

 

Over this weekend retreat we gently explored what our inner child wanted to share and how we can support them to do this safely. We looked at the different aspects of our inner children and what we can learn from them. 

 

We also spent time thinking about what fuels them and how we can become more empowered to work with them.

We used sound therapy to embed the learning we embarked upon over the weekend, which was both relaxing and enlightening. 

 

Sessions included areas such as creativity, communicating with the inner child, reparenting, understanding the role of the inner child and looking at the impact of childhood trauma and adversity on the adult self. 

 

The good news is, you haven't missed out!

 

There is demand for a 1 day version of this event, so if you are interested, contact us directly and we will add you to the list to be notified when we have a date later this year.
