We have become like sponges, absorbing energy historically from people around us.

We have become like sponges, absorbing energy historically from people around us. When we are with loving, happy people, we tend to feel good. When we are with people who are sad, unhappy, nervous, or angry, we tend to feel bad. We have learned to easily pick up others' energy, thoughts and emotions. Child Within, especially sensitive children, are vulnerable to "absorbing" others' negative energy and becoming quickly retraumatised.

Sometimes our child within "act up", whine, or get "difficult" because they have absorbed negative energy from others. The Child Within are very connected to their parents, so they have picked up stress and worries which have traumatised them over the years.
