Possible Buried Beliefs

  • “I want to return to what was lost.”
  • “I need someone to protect the younger part of me.”
  • “I never got to be innocent.”
  • “I can rewrite the old wound.”
  • “My younger self still needs attention.”
  • “Care and control became confused.”

Healing Notes

Shame loosens in the presence of being seen and not rejected. Naming it out loud is often the first crack of light.
