If You’re Afraid – Healing your Inner Child

August 22, 2011

If the sky falls tomorrow have clouds for breakfast

My inspiration for this post today is a dear little client of mine who came to me for an Aura and Chakra cleansing and healing session. Children are always such a joy to my heart! They can be really good teachers when it comes to making me learn new things about how to have more joy, happiness and spontaneous fun in my life.

Well, this little one was afraid of the dark as a lot of children are and he reminded me of my own fear of the dark as a child that still creeps up on me from time to time. Being clairvoyant and the owner of a wild imagination certainly isn’t helpful in that department! And although, I have several simple remedies for any kind fear known or unknown at hand now that work like a charm, I thought this piece would be a good share to read to children at bedtime or to remind us as adults of our inner children and their whimsical solutions to finding the unexpected silver lining glistening in every gloomy, scary cloud…

If You’re Afraid Of The Dark…

If tomorrow morning the sky falls…
have clouds for breakfast.

If night falls…
use stars for streetlights.

If the moon gets stuck in a tree…
cover the hole in the sky with a strawberry.

If you have butterflies in your stomach…
ask them into your heart.

If your heart catches in your throat…
ask a bird how she sings.

If the birds forget their songs…
listen to a pebble instead.

If you lose a memory…
embroider a new one to take its place.

If you lose the key…
throw away the house.

If the clock stops…
use your own hands to tell time.

If the light goes out…
wear it around your neck and go dancing.

If the bus doesn’t come…
catch a fast cloud.

If it’s the last dance…
dance backwards.

If you find your socks don’t match…
stand in a flowerbed.

If your shoes don’t fit…
give them to the fish in the pond.

If your horse needs shoes…
let him use his wings.

If the sun never shines again…
hold fireflies in your hands to keep warm.

If you’re afraid of the dark…
remember the night rainbow.

If there is no happy ending…
make one out of cookie dough.
