Step One of Inner Bonding

Willingness to Feel Pain and Take Responsibility for Your Feelings

Move your focus out of your head and into the present moment, into your body, tuning into your feelings.
Breath into your feelings, taking some time to be with them - being with your Inner Child, which is your inner Guidance system.
Make a conscious decision that you WANT to take responsibility for your feelings.

DAILY INSPIRATION

As adults, unless you are very sick, old or disabled, abandonment is something to we do to ourselves. Others can leave us or reject us, but only we can abandon ourselves. Today, stop abandoning yourself by attending to your own feelings and needs, being compassionate toward yourself, speaking up for yourself, taking loving action for yourself, and staying open to learning about your feelings and with your spiritual Guidance.

More About Inner Bonding

Inner Bonding is a proven six-step self-healing process that has been developed and optimized over 30 years by Dr. Margaret Paul, Ph.D. and Dr. Erika Chopich, Ph.D. It’s comprehensive. It’s practical. And it always works when you do it.

Inner Bonding empowers you to self-heal the root causes of anxiety, depression, addictions, failed relationships and many other problems that inhibit your personal and spiritual growth and satisfaction. It teaches you how to love yourself rather than continue to abandon yourself, how to move beyond emotional dependency and attain emotional freedom, and how to heal the underlying control issues stemming from self-abandonment.
