We will be sitting there, talking to our students, when all of a sudden we realise they aren't even listening. Instead, they'll be staring at some faraway object as though deep in thought.
At that moment, we wonder if they are losing there marbles. But, They not. And neither are you. The student is merely getting in touch with a part of themselves that hasn't healed. It's something deep inside us called the child within - something that's been with them for years.
We have never seen it, probably never talked to it and likely didn't know it existed. But, it's probably always been there - locked somewhere in the basement of our mind. And now that we've started the healing process, it's come to the forefront. It wants attention and it wants it now.
The child within is one of the most difficult things for our students to understand, but it's also something you'll have to come to grips with.
For our students, the child is a real thing, although not in the physical sense. The survivor is able to feel what the child feels, talk to it, even console it. Sometimes, our students can picture the child within inside us. We can see the child sitting in a room, playing with their things.
The Ten Stages is a studied recovery course. It is a source of reconnection a method of unlearning and a reintroduction to our child within which leads us back to our one true intuitive voice.We start to learn and come out of our protective dysfunctional shell and reclaim our lives.
