Such a good post - thank you for sharing your experience. Your drawing of your inner child drawing, surrounded by sturdy walls - that's pretty powerful.

Stop throwing rocks at my window!!!

I had a near breakthrough via guided meditation nearly 20 years as an unhappily married, church-going guy. I say “nearly” because the avenue, the setting, and the intention were all very, very wrong. But all these years later I still think about it, and your story here gets me to thinking it might be time to visit that wounded boy again.

Thanks for sharing, DJ.

I had this happen to me a few years ago. Gut wrenching. Recently, I had the opposite happen with a coach I’m working with. Turns out, my inner self is a total rebel badass who’s been waiting for outer me to catch up. It’s amazing what surprises are underneath the hood!!

Been reading these drawing journals on Instagram and they’re amazing. Frigging Deepak Chopra, wow. Never had a guided meditation, wouldn’t even know where to begin. My inner child, it’s there and comes out once in a while. This week’s prompt is an interesting and challenging one. I’ll have to think about it.
