This is part of the work I do in my Alchemical Hypnotherapy  
practice. Inner Child work is one of the first steps, not the only  
step. Learning to parent ourselves is just as important as rescuing  
and protecting the inner child.
 
Sometimes we can't parent those lost parts of ourselves because we  
have no role models for which to pattern ourselves. Sometimes just  
having insight into why the way we are is not enough to facilitate  
transformation.
 
Fortunately, there are inner guides who will fulfill the role for  
you as loving emotionally mature parents perfectly. They can be  
found in our meditation practice or going on an inner journey. For  
those who never had the parents they wished and wanted for, these  
gentle, loving spirits are waiting to be asked to step into that  
role.
 
Just like the Divine Beloved or the Inner Mate there is a Divine  
Adult Father and Mother. We are fortunate that these guides exists  
independently of our conscious ego.
 
For those who cannot trust the human forms animal spirits can make  
great parents.
 
As above so below, as within so without. In the realm of the Spirit  
as in the realm of the Physical.
 
Lovely blessings, 
Susan
