This is a dialogue between your Vulnerable
Child (who feels weak, frightened, upset) and your Inner Nurturing Parent (who
gives comfort and support). The Nurturing Parent writes with your dominant hand
and asks the child what it wants and needs. Let the Inner Child write with your
non-dominant hand and tell exactly what it's feeling, what's missing in the
relationship, and what to do about it. Let your Nurturing Parent build trust by
telling the Inner Child how it will fulfill the Child's requests.
Whenever you are feeling upset, sit down and let your Vulnerable Child write
its feelings out with your non-dominant hand. With your dominant hand, let your
Nurturing Parent respond with love and encouragement. This is an excellent
exercise to do whenever you are feeling discontented or confused. Often, it is
at these times that your Inner Child is feeling either ignored or criticized by
your Inner Parent.
Benefits: This exercise gives you a chance to recognize openly the feelings
that are often associated with denial, distress, and pain. It also lets you DO
something about these feelings by activating the opposite aspect of your
personality, the strong, nurturing side. Instead of only seeking support from
outside, you can find it within and thereby reduce your demands upon others. The
end result is greater self reliance and wholeness. Also, if you learn to nurture
yourself, you can give to others with a feeling of abundance from a truly
generous spirit.
