The Inner Child is not some fanciful idea or esoteric concept, it is a phenomenon, that exists in our everyday, lives and it is the doorway to experiencing true, peace and happiness. "In the beginning" there was only God and God's Child, created to share in God's love. Yet without contrast, they could not experience it and so believed that God had abandoned them. The creation of the Universe, while initially the Child's strategy to escape feeling separate from God's love was, repurposed to help them experience it. Our embodiment as human beings and the birth of the Inner Child in us makes this possible. In Another Way, Tobias Gale offers a step-by-step approach for developing a conscious relationship with our Inner Child. As we learn to respond to our Inner Child's distress, support their authentic expression, and include them in our day-to-day lives we, come to form a secure attachment, and thereby create the conditions to experience God's love. Using references from a variety of spiritual and religious texts, psychological research on parent-child attachments, and the author's personal experience with Inner Child work (offered through specific examples, guided instructions, and diagrams), Another Way will help readers transform their suffering to experience the freedom and joy of living from their authentic self.
