Inner child healing with rose quartz crystal

Let’s be real: healing the inner child is no small task! So much of it involves facing feelings of abandonment or not feeling good enough, issues that often started in childhood (or even past lives!) but follow us into our adult lives, showing up in our relationships and how we treat ourselves. Rose quartz can help remind you that self-compassion is everything. It’s all about forgiving yourself, whether it’s for thinking you weren’t enough or for carrying those old hurts for far too long.

What makes rose quartz so perfect for inner child healing is its ability to connect us back to a sense of innocence and joy. Often, in adulthood, we become disconnected from the parts of ourselves that once found happiness in the simplest things.

Love yourself

By working with this crystal, we’re reminded that life isn’t just about the pain we’ve experienced, but also about the joy we are capable of feeling. It encourages us to look at the world with fresh eyes, just like we did when we were young. This is crucial in inner child healing because we’re not just here to soothe the wounds; we’re also here to reclaim the lightness and playfulness we might have lost along the way.

As you meditate with rose quartz, especially during powerful moments like the Aries Full Moon, you create space for a more peaceful, loving relationship with yourself. You might feel inspired to dance, laugh or indulge in something that makes your heart sing, no matter how small. This is the crystal reminding you that your inner child deserves joy, and so do you!

Ultimately, Rose Quartz is a balm for the soul. Its energy cultivates a deep sense of inner peace, helping us to stop the war we so often wage with ourselves. It’s like a sigh of relief, a reminder that you are safe, that you are loved, and that healing is possible.

Meditation to heal the inner child at the Aries full moon, October 17th, 2024

Here’s a meditation you might like to try to help connect with your inner child. Breathe deeply. Let each inhale fill your lungs with a sense of calm, and each exhale release any tension or worry.

 

Bring to mind a memory from your childhood, one where you needed comfort but didn’t receive it. Allow yourself to gently step into that moment, observing it as if you’re watching a scene unfold.

 

Breathe deeply, simply allowing any emotions or thoughts to flow through the body, letting them pass you by.


Now, imagine your adult self stepping into the memory. Visualise yourself approaching your younger self with love and compassion.


Open your arms and offer your inner child a loving hug. Feel the warmth and connection between you. Let your inner child know that you’re here now, that they’re safe, and you’ve got their back.


Kneel beside your inner child and offer them the comfort and support you needed back then. Speak softly, sharing the words you longed to hear, whether it’s reassurance, love, or simply a reminder that everything will be okay.


When you feel the connection has deepened, take a few moments to just be with your inner child. Breathe, allowing the feeling of comfort and love to wash over both of you.


When you are ready, gently return to the present moment. Take a deep breath and open your eyes slowly, bringing with you the peace and healing of this moment.

 


When you have finished, spend some time journaling on what came up during the meditation. Reflect on any emotions, insights, or thoughts. Consider if there’s anyone you need to forgive, whether it’s others or even yourself.
