Cultivating Neutrality: The Art of Finding Inner Balance

As we grow and evolve on our spiritual path, there's a powerful part of us that often gets left behind—the inner child.

This part of us holds our wonder, playfulness, creativity, and sensitivity. But it can also hold our wounds, unmet needs, and the places where we didn’t feel seen or safe. True spiritual maturity doesn’t mean outgrowing the inner child—it means learning to nurture and integrate them.

When we take time to tend to our inner child, we build trust within ourselves. We start to meet our needs with love and compassion instead of judgment. We begin to honor the parts of us that want to dance, rest, create, cry, or just be held.

The more we give space to the inner child, the more we grow in spiritual maturity—because we’re not ignoring or suppressing our truth. We’re learning to meet all of ourselves with kindness. And from that wholeness, we’re able to show up in the world with clarity, strength, and deeper connection.

Ways to Nurture Your Inner Child:

• Speak to yourself with gentleness.

• Make time for joy and play without guilt.

• Sit with your emotions, even the messy ones.

• Ask your heart what it needs—then listen.

This kind of self-nurturing is not a detour from the spiritual path—it is the path. Maturity comes when we can be both wise and tender, strong and soft.

As you move through this week, I invite you to reflect: What would it look like to parent your inner child with grace? What does your younger self need from you today?

Let these questions guide you into deeper harmony.

Next week’s Current Movement class will explore this exact theme: Harmony—between body and spirit, heart and mind, inner child and higher self.

I’d love for you to join me live on Tuesday to move, breathe, and reconnect with that sacred balance within.
