10 Questions — Takes about 3 minutes
We all have an inner child – the younger part within us that is still innocent, curious, creative, and open to the world.
The inner child is the part of us that infuses our life with spontaneity, play, joy, and wonder. But it’s also this part that carries our deepest sorrows, fears, anger, and hurts.
Most of us go through life totally unaware of this inner part of us. What does your inner child want you to know right now? Let’s find out.
Inner Child Test
You can think of this test as an introduction or even initiation into inner child work. It will give you a place to start and something to focus your attention on.
What is the Inner Child? (& the Benefits of Doing This Work)

The inner child is one of our most ancient parts. In fact, our inner child represents our original self – the identity that originally blossomed into this world.
When we are oblivious to our inner child, we’re also totally unconscious of their needs, desires, and wounds. It is then that we play out self-sabotaging patterns and repeat unconscious habits, not knowing that they are all rooted in the inner child.
By becoming aware of your inner child and what they are trying to tell you, you will develop more self-respect, self-love, and inner groundedness.
You’ll become more capable of listening to your authentic needs, develop the ability to undo old harmful patterns, and find the clarity to pursue your true life purpose.
On a spiritual level, reconnecting with your inner child helps you to heal the heart chakra and feel more physically, emotionally, and mentally safe in this world. As such, learning to embrace your inner child is a powerful form of down-to-earth spiritual practice that can immensely deepen and enrich your inner work journey by helping you to awaken your heart.
How to Connect With Your Inner Child

The best way to reconnect with your inner child is through inner child work.
In inner child work, we actively seek to reconnect with this innocent and oftentimes wounded part of us through a variety of self-nurturing practices.
As always, don’t take our word as the final authority. If you feel that your inner child is trying to tell you something that’s even more important than what this test reveals, by all means, listen to that inner voice instead and go exploring!
Also, please don’t be afraid of reaching out for professional help. You can also take a look at our Inner Child Journal if you need a structured, supportive, and compassionate way to begin this crucial work.

I need to be nurtured
I need to feel safe
Inner child is innocent
My inner child needs to grieve
I need more magic
It says that I need a firm sense of safety in my life. What does that mean?
I need to play more often. funny, i always thought i played too much and was lazy🙃
same!!!
The need to play more. Yep. I find I lack productive play
Mine says that I need more magic… what does that mean?
Thanks, Bella. Generally, more magic means creating more space to be in tune with the ordinary magic of everyday life. Small moments of admiring the swaying of trees, the smoke from our teacup, and the dance of dogs playing, magic moments are these glimpses of experiences that remind us of the joy of living and the mystery of it all that nourish something deeper within us.
We have become conventional in our thinking. Settled into a routine and taking things for granted. at least I think I have. I am glad spring is coming so I can get out into the forest and walk and think.
Wow, it said I need to grieve. I suspected that has been an issue and I’m sure it stems from my father dying when I was 4 year old. I think I’m stuck in the grieving process. I’ve had therapy but to no avail. I guess I’m going to try the inner child work and see what happens. This could be the reason I was led to you.
You don’t need a test or anyone else to tell you what’s hurting you. If you leave up to others to tell you what’s wrong with you you will end up much more messed up than you are willing to be.
just my opinion.
Thank you
I’ve got the same result as you, and my father died when I was 6… I think I should do the inner child work as well to see if I get better.
