A Step towards Freedom: Inner-Child Meditation with Karen Berg (KB)

Each one of us comes into this world with a certain karma – the parents we have, where we are born, the environment we grow up in, the teachers and friends that meet us along the way. As a result of these places and relationships, we each have little areas inside of us where we didn’t get the love, the care, and or the attention we needed—where we were perhaps not recognized or treated as a spark of God, where we got the C instead of the A, or where we weren’t good enough or pretty enough or smart enough or successful enough. While this “damage” has served to shape us, for better or for worse, into whom and what we are today, its negative aspects may still fester within us, manifesting as our inner “wounded child” in need of the healing power of forgiveness and unconditional love. This is the healing power that can save us from the petty arguments we get into day after day or from the pitfalls of blame and despair; it is the healing power that can reveal so much Light and connection for us because we know two things for certain: that Light only comes out of darkness, and that as dark as the dark is, the Light will be equally as bright. Of course, this healing is not a process that happens all at once; change is a process that takes place step by step. As we travel along our spiritual path, all the Creator asks of us is to go one level more, to reach for one level higher, to make just one more effort towards our spiritual growth. Now as we reach the culmination of our spiritual cleansing that has prepared us for the revelation of true freedom that we will experience tonight at the Pesach Seder, I invite you to take a step towards healing your inner child and join me in the meditation below, which I originally gave at the New Moon of Aquarius this past February in London. I hope you enjoy it, and I wish you and yours a powerful Passover connection and a blessed year.
