Linda Baker is a registered nurse with a private

practice near Seattle, WA and has worked in the
eld of mental health for over 20 years. After
discovering Alchemical Hypnosis and its
eectiveness in treating emotional illness, she
went on to train and become an Alchemical
Hypnotherapist herself. In the following article
Linda shares an "inner child rescue mission"
experience with one of her clients.

When my husband and I brought our rst foster child home, even though he was six-foot-two and sixteen years
old, he soon made a spontaneous regression into early childhood and we did extensive reparenting with him. This
was not planned, it just happened and the eects were amazing. For the rst time I was really able to see how the
programming of childhood aects us and can control how we are and how changing this programming can free
us to discover our true selves. As we continued our work with foster children I became increasingly excited about
the potential of the reparenting process. The biggest drawback was that the process was dicult and lengthy.

That all changed when I discovered Alchemical Hypnosis.

With Alchemical Hypnotherapy I discovered a new way to help my clients relive their
childhoods and re-parent themselves, with a considerable saving of time and energy.

Rescuing the Inner Child

This client came to me with these issues, "I don't like myself. I don't feel worthy enough for anyone to care about
me. I don't feel that life is worth living." Typically, he expressed fear of looking inside and contacting his inner child.
Often the pain of childhood is blocked out by locking the child away it can be scary to imagine letting him or her
out again. To help ease these fears I let him know that (1) protecting this pain only gives it greater power in our
lives; (2) in the process of Alchemical Hypnosis, FEELINGthe pain is only a part of the process.HEALINGof the pain
to regain inner strength and freedom is the more powerful part of the process.
This client had several traumatic experiences come up during his sessions. I have chosen this particular scene to
illustrate the process.
Client: I see a room. It's a room in my old house. I'm sitting on the oor cutting and pasting something out of paper.
Therapist: About how old are you?
Client: I'm seven. It's after the divorce.

Therapist: You can allow yourself to be this little seven year old boy and see what happens.
Client: The door is opening. It's my mother. She just got home from work and she's mad at me. She's screaming at me.
Therapist: Let's hear what she's saying. Let her talk directly to this little boy.
Client: You're always making a mess! You never do anything right! I'm tired of cleaning up this house! I wish you would
just go to your room and leave me alone!
Therapist: What would you like to say to her?
Client: Nothing. I'm too scared. She might hit me.
Therapist: Maybe you'd like to bring your adult self down here with you. What would your adult self like to say to your
mother?
Client: "That's no way to treat a little boy just because you're tired! You're his mother! He needs to be loved! You're not t
to be his mother! Leave him alone! "(Screams) I just want to take him out of this house (tears).
Therapist: Where would you like to go with him?
Client: We're sitting in a eld by a pond!
Therapist: (Giving the client a soft pillow) Here's your little child. Maybe you'd like to tell him that he is a good little boy
and deserves to be loved and cared for, and to play and have fun.

Client: I want you to love and protect me. (Adult client says:) I love you and I will take care of you.
Therapist: Now each day you can spend a few minutes with your little child letting him know that he is loved and cared
for.
Here the client has accessed an incident that contributed to his feelings of low self-worth. He felt the pain and
went on to heal the incident by releasing stored anger buried under guilt and depression. He understood that his
mother could not meet his needs and that he could love his own inner child by giving it the appropriate message
for growth, changing it from the, "You are not loved or even lovable" into, "You are lovable, and I love you!".
This client had been angry and resentful of any children he saw playing. He was in a state of depression where he
could not allow himself to have fun (because of the guilt, and fear of not being loved), and thus saw life as not
being worth living. Changing the message his inner child receives to, "You are lovable and you deserve to play and
be loved," has aected his life in two major ways; (1) he is now able to take time and have fun, allowing himself to
feel good about it; and (2) he is now able to relate to children in a positive manner devoid of the hostility of the
past, allowing them to have fun too.
Other clients who don't feel equipped to nurture their own inner child can discover inner parents within the
subconscious to assist them in the joyful process of nurturing the inner child, and to be a loving parent to the
