The Child Within behind every addiction lurks unmet needs and failing coping strategies from childhood. Adults who failed to get their childhood needs met shunt these still-living needs into unhealthy and dissociative behavior patterns. People who had their childhood needs met do not overindulge in chemical substances, food, unhealthy relationships, sex, or inappropriate work or fantasy—because they have developed healthy self worth and resolve their present needs through healthy, conscious avenues. Addictions are unconscious—and people who have grieved their losses do not need to play out these unconscious patterns.
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. #childwithin#10stages
