Thanks Annielise

In previous posts about the Inner Child I have talked how we should try to have a relationship with our own inner child when we ignore her we suddenly find she has a cob and starts either the sulk or the plan to make us feel vulnerable insecure and threatened.

All these things are used by her to UN nerve us and throw us off balance. This leads to a second battle and the one I am talking about is the power struggle not only of your own inner child but even of someone else’s who decided to feed of you and her.

So all of a sudden there are two forces at work your own inner worries and third party of someone else’s personal issues.

Example: You get dragged into someone else’s friction you know it the two other people who have spent many months plotting and scheming against each other who seem to try and build up sides and armies and you trying to do your job suddenly finds yourself either on the end of it or bang right in the middle. They are every where work, college even at home.

You have spent all week trying to avoid situations and just plod along trying not to get on anyone’s nerves and here it is Friday and power struggle explodes. Next your inner child starts I told you so, I said you should not work with these types and you always end up with taking the blame. No only are you trying to work out who these other types are but already your head aches your stressed.

The weekends of to a brilliant start and already your dreading Monday morning for as sure eggs are eggs its some how going to be your fault even though you did your job followed the rules and still some how managed to come out with the dog poo on your shoes and it don’t matter, how many times you wash it off the smell wont go away.

What’s next! You ask yourself do you spend the whole weekend wondering if you going to get pulled in to explain your side and to be honest what side. Why should you even have to explain that you follow the policy laid down the rules and guidelines of!

Again the sun shiners the types it don’t matter what goes down they come up smelling of roses. Will have a fantastic weekend and their gloating Inner Childs have managed not only to have been fed and watered for another week they even have bonus points for upsetting yours.

Limit the damage try to explain to yourself first that your not alone you just feel like it. You’re not the only person in the world who feels that what ever they try to do it always seems to be wrong. Be careful of the sympathetic ear yes we all need to off load but don’t do it to news week again the report will get out of hand and in the end your will find yourself front page news and not for the right reasons.

Chocolate helps along with a nice hot bath play some of your favourite music or watch a good film. Learn to read the signs before they happen. Smile in most situations. The Inner Child loves her chocolate but not too much or we have the sick issues. Next try smiling it confuses people it also makes them wonder if they have actually achieved their goal.

To be honest you may feel like cr… But don’t show it. Suggestion: when in difficult situations answer question with a question.Then say sorry but I haven’t got all the information “Can I get back you Brad?” It gives you breathing space ok on insight you won’t remember it every time but like my old mum used to say for warned is for armed. I am sure she read is somewhere and its someone else famous quote in the end its good advice so have a better week Annielise Stone March 7^th 2010

“Communication is not just spoken word it’s a gesture a sign”. By Annielise Stone Internation Medium 13th Feb 2010 sensingwithspirit.com

Some days the Inner Child gets up earlier than you in fact she probably didn’t shut up at all, kept you awake half the night worrying about anything and everything, too numerous to mention and your too knackered to care.

You know it’s the sort of day you wake up with that huge spot or Zit on your chin no matter how much concealer you put on it. There it is for the whole world to see along with the fact, you can find any clean underwear and your favourite top has shrunk in the wash. Guess what the paper in the loo run out too!

From there the day seems to escalate at a speed faster than a landslide. You miss the bus, the train and you have run out of milk for that all important hot beverage TEA. You creep into work hoping that you can hide the fact you’re A) 15 minutes late, and B) the huge growth on your chin.

There she is waiting to pounce and the day is set. You have forgotten to take back the library books and the 3 DVD’s that you got thinking you have a you moment only to find you seen two before and the other one was complete utter rubbish to top it all your a day late and the fines mean you could have brought them cheaper.

So the lunch hour is spent trying to find the shortest cue and you end up with a cold coffee and dry sandwich because all the best ones are gone. The machine in the library is asking for the fines and wont let you take anything else out until you paid and finally you have forgotten your pin and can get any cash out for the bus home.

For some of us this is a too regular occurrence and you can guarantee your are continually going too put your foot in it.

One of my favourite sayings”Talks of the devil and it follows you up”. With all my good intentions to try and practise Karma even I have days. The inner child has her moments I am sure all of you have seen the cartoons with the devil on one shoulder and the Angel on the other and fighting both and usually the chocolate wins hands down.

Mind! You’re inner child needs attention love and lots of understanding making peace with her is a full time job but very worth while and when you work together. Both of you end up with a win win. Rather than win loose. (“I told you so”)

Today been a particularly difficult one it’s like don’t get too complacent and deep down recognise you cant please people all of the time in some cases you cant please some people at all. Realism recognises that as human beings we also have flaws and we do screw up all of us at sometime or another.

I have written over 70 blogs in the last couple of years and today my website decide it did not want to work or let anyone view my thoughts. Perhaps my own ego got in the way and I presumed that by talking about various subjects and opinions that I could reach a wider audience. I have met people from all over the world I have given readings to many different countries races and continents all of these people came from different back ground and I liked to think with my help they moved forward working through their own pathways. I always try to include humour in my blogs as without them the ability to make fun at ones own self would make me appear boring. I got told to today you like to talk. I do! should I have taken offence. Perhaps is it the case that I want to try give you some tools to help you work with life instead of against it.

My reply was also I can listen for if I had spent all my life talking how I would be able to provide so much information on so many subjects without having someone talk to me.

I watched an old film last night with Robin Williams and Robert De Nero in called the Awakening the story of a man who tried to help people who were affected by an illness which causes them to retreat into their own worlds making them completely dependant on others. For a short time drugs work to help these people but with all medicines we don’t know the side effects. The point was he learnt behind the drugs to reach people was human contact. Time, understanding and yes, talking which I do a great deal of.

As the story unfolds the line There is not such thing as a simple miracles expresses that we all need greater understanding of life itself. Annielise Stone 13^th Feb 2010
