*Red light feeling*
These words just stop everything. All the mess coming from the labels eg. anxiety, panic, fear, etc. If I say red light feeling then I can see my thoughts proparly. If I say anxiety, my mind starts running with this label and I just can't see anything in my mind even if I know it would be very helpful to see whats going on inside.
So these words: red light feeling
are M A G I C
Thank You for them!
Mia
I really like the way you, David, lean forward, look straight into the camera and even point to the camera when you speak passionately about the inner child. It feels like you are speaking directly to me.
Hi Hakan, we're glad you had such a powerful connection with David and the teaching :) x
Oh my gosh☺ I've been waiting on this video forever can't wait till your next videos but now I understand it is a process 🙆OMG can't waitttttttt for the next videos love love love🤗🤗🤗
Thanks for your support and joy Raven!! x
Thanks I've just come across your channel. I've done some inner child work in the past and thought you did a great video for others. (I will be recommending it).
In the past when I did inner child work with one of my teachers, my inner child started off looking as a child of about 6 or 7 who was all dirty, sad looking, craving attention and love, who didn't feel safe and was dressed in rags but after a couple of inner child sessions of talking to it, hugging it and sitting it upon my lap.. it grew up to about a 11 or 12 year old, was happier, felt safer, clean and was no longer dressed in rags. (I'm not at all visual usually but during my past inner child work I got quite vivid images and emotions during this). The inner child work made great changes.
Hi @tanyabrown9839,
Thank you for sharing your heartfelt experience with inner child work and for your kind words about our video. It's inspiring to hear about your journey and the transformative impact it had on your inner child. Your progress is a testament to your commitment to resolving these issues and fostering a sense of safety and love within yourself. Keep nurturing your inner child and continue on this path of growth and understanding. If you're interested in connecting with others who are on similar journeys, our FREE Wu Wei Wisdom community is a supportive space: facebook.com/groups/wuweiwisdomcommunity/.
Thank you for recommending our video, and welcome to our channel!
Kind Regards,
David
Thank you so much for your guidance. Love you Alex and David.
Thanks for watching Fatim! x
It is a very difficult concept to fully grasp in one go, so hearing it again in slightly different words is very helpful. Things that I missed in the other videos, now have become clearer. I still 'cringe' when I hear David use the word 'awesome', but I understand more what he's trying to say. Anyway, as you both have said many times "one size doesn't fit all", so I use my own words & language to communicate with my ic. Thank you for your generosity in giving these life lessons openly: they have helped me tremendously.
Thanks for sharing Ursula... yes, you must adapt the teachings to suit you ...and we encourage this! There is no one 'right' way (or words) :) x
Thankyou so much, this was such a helpful and enlightening video.
Hi David and Alex
Thankyou so much for this very helpful video .xxx
You're welcome Denise! Thanks for your support :) x
inner child healing, saying to myself it or that or they are nothing to do with me has really helped me alot,
Hi Greg, thanks for sharing. Yes, you are not defined by your past or other people's actions. :)
OMG I understand so much of myself now! Thank you so much for this video. This is so helpful.
Thanks guys.....love to you both. Always something new to learn. Great reminders as well. Life wouldn't be the same without Sunday morning learning and inspiration from you both xxx
Thanks, Rebecca! Sending love x
This video is wonderful and helpful. I will listen to it again!
Wishing you the best in 2020!💖
Glad you enjoyed the video Judith! x
Lovely video I’ve just realised that I am the abandoned inner child.Its true I am always seeking validation from other people and I’ve been told that I am a people pleaser.I also eat too much in order to cope.

Thank you for your support Judy! x
@@WuWeiWisdom yw ty for your insight on the inner child
I wish you could do a video on doing this work, healing the inner child, through journaling. I have heard that it can be very helpful. Thank you.
Hi Jeff, thanks for watching and commenting!
Journaling can be helpful for some people but not for other people who don't like writing. This is why there is not 'one' good way and we advise that everyone tries a range of reparenting techniques to find what suits them best. :)
Amazing as always. Thank you David and Alex.
Love the work of the inner child.
Such wonderful teachings. Learning all the time xxx
Thank you Liz! x
This is the second time I’ve listened to this and it is so helpful. It’s one I will keep returning to as every time something else resonates with me . Thank you !
Glad you enjoyed the teaching Clare. Sending you love x
Thank you both so much knowing exactly who my inner child is helps me to understand who I am connecting to and allows me to work with her so much better - well done xx
Glad you enjoyed the video Suzanne! :) x
Great video! Also looking forward to the follow up videos 🙏
Thanks Nadine - we appreciate your support! x
Great video - I’m using it to try and help someone else as the techniques have certainly helped me.

Im confused as I thought the negative voice is the critical inner parent (which then the inner child repeats?) so helpful thank you!
What’s a technique to deal with your inner child when it starts yapping away unexpectedly?
I can trace back an emotional response in childhood, 100% abandoned inner child which has resulted in a lifelong battle with perfectionism, self harm, bulimia and anorexia. I wish I could trace an actual incident, it's just fragmented and blurry 😭
Hi Janine, thanks for sharing your story. It's not so important to trace a specific incident... it's more valuable to identify and work on the *belief* that was created as a child and the 'Life Lesson' associated with this (eg. I was/am 100% abandoned).

Oh dear! Why did God create us so damn complicated?!??
Very interesting concept here David. So are you saying we should teach our children that they are whole and complete and not to expect acts of love from their parents? Do children have the cognitive reasoning to understand this?

Thank you David and Alex. A question on my perception of purpose, work, income. I want to find my guidance and not care what others think yet I am forced by government to find work and wished it could be different. Trusting myself can be a challenge when Ive been taught by others what to do in society. What are my genuine ideas and what has been programmed? I have been afraid of work due to social media propaganda about money and the system being slavery. I went down a rabbit hole or carousel of despair and havent worked in years, trying to wait for my shen to guide me to the perfect way to earn money, yet I thought I had to go down a path of asceticism, simplicity, no house or electricity, off the grid in a vehicle, no friends cause I thought the western human centred mind couldnt be trusted (another reason for avoiding work as well as co dependent partnering).
I know the inner child wants protection and avoids conflict, drama, loss of energy. Im confused whether the Shen would guide me to not work so I can rediscover the Shen or is it the inner child? I have had major trust issues in all areas and think that if I try to work again that it will lose the connection to Shen/source. I dont work and still blocked from creativity so it seems like a gamble to work again, time or money, how can I find that balance without needing too much money/materialism and shutting it all out with ascetism while sharing my shen out in the world with trust?
Thank you
Hi Kate,
Thanks for your question - I'm replying here to the first unedited version of your comment..
As you will appreciate it would be inappropriate for me to comment on personal issues without full knowledge, history and background. Therefore I can only comment in general terms.
'Shen' does not relate to money or finance. It is about living with truth, honesty and integrity. Being able to flourish by finding your harmony and balance and being in your flow.
Obviously, I do not know you or your circumstances, but from your comments, you seem to strongly connect to your Human Centred Mind and Inner Child, and blocking your Shen.
Remember, you are the creator of your emotions NOT the victim of them. You control your mind, your mind does NOT control you. So, there is no need to protect or keep yourself safe from the emotional feelings that you are creating.
Shen will manifest in your creativity and being open and authentic. We have done a number of videos on this subject - you'll find them on this video playlist: th-cam.com/play/PL9NQ_PWX4zIBmp50wYcmU7jCBLp1Qvl-j.html
Hope that helps on your spiritual journey.
David

What is wu wei? Mine is 5 and younger I need help now with this !!!!!!
wu wei is a Taoist principle that means something like 'going with the flow'. Picture life as a river. Wu wei would be going down the river in the smoothest, most efficient way, without striking the rocks or getting trapped in whirl pools.
I had been in an abusive 3 year relationship and experienced a lot of trauma and threats (emotional, mental and phsyical abuse). I also always had low self esteem, am a people pleaser and now my emotions are all over the place. I was tested and my adrenaline and cortisol are very off and I also watched your hypersensitivity video , as I am one of these people too. I feel extremely dirty, used, worthless and have been trying to learn and connect to my inner child. I honestly dont know how and where to start. Would some future self journaling and some minutes of talking to myself help, but then what should I tell myself if I dont even like or love myself? I wonder if there are videos on learning how to love oneself as I tend to watch out for others but not myself and I feel super isolated.
Thank you for sharing your story Lucie.

@@WuWeiWisdom thank you SO so much, I will apply and try my best to apply these things - I am already subscribed and joined the group, I have watched already several videos and they are incredible. It is the first time I have found a channel that is truly helpful! I can´t wait to watch the video on sunday!!!! Lastly, I was wondering if I should read the Tae Te Ching or the I Ching first?
@@lucie442 the 'Tao of Pooh' (Benjamin Hoff) and 'Change Your Thoughts, Change Your Life' (Wayne Dyer) are good places to start for Tao books!
Then progress onto either of the others - they are both very different and for different purposes... see here: th-cam.com/video/KwvCzWfE7KQ/w-d-xo.html

What do I do if I feel as though I've abandoned, neglected or even REtraumatized my inner child since embarking on the journey to reparent him?
Thanks for taking the time to offer feedback but frankly, it seems like you're speaking a different language.
Hi James,
Thank you for your question.
Could you please share a little more information because I don't quite understand how you can abandon, neglected and retraumatise that part of your mind we are labelling your Inner Child by giving it attention?

@@WuWeiWisdom Well, it's unfortunately similar to how it was growing up. My higher parent buys a bunch of art supplies, my inner child gets really excited and then I don't make artistic expression a priority in my life. Additionally, I've been doing non dominant hand writing for a while and my inner child clearly expressed fear that he'll be forgotten if I enter into a romantic relationship. And yet I not only pursue women, but I pursue some pretty unhealthy women; hence the retraumatization of my inner child. Perhaps my approach is different than what you're describing but I feel like he wants to "throw a wobbler" because I haven't shown him consistent attention since the beginning of the journey of the inner child.
@@jamescalbert4958 Hi James,
Think I understand a little more.
The obvious question would be (as with the art supplies) why don't you take responsibility for completing a project that seemingly is a priority to you?
The second question would be, why do you choose to pursue 'unhealthy' women?
As you will appreciate it would be inappropriate for me to comment on personal issues without full knowledge, history and background. Therefore I can only comment in general terms.
There seems to be an inconsistently and an imbalance between your thoughts, beliefs and actions.
Thank you for your reply, I hope that helps on your spiritual journey.
David
