Making an Inner Child Exploration Kit | Walking the Self-Worth Path

[@DaniMystic]

Watching you with your toy box is everything the world needs right now. Loved this.... I take it back....the Unicorn. OMG, it made me giggle and smile at how much you loved that. THE BEST!

[@Lisa_Papez]

Hehehehe I was kinda feeling shy right after filming because I turned into such a kid! LOL But I was like eff it, let's show the internet my inner child on full display! 🤣🤣

[@phyllissantuchadelafuente]

The moment your toys came out, your inner child woke up!!! I love it! Always stay your fun self!🙏🏾🤎🥰

[@spiritwhimsy6918]

Can I just tell you, LOL, I am sitting here watching your video with my two year old, and he is completely in awe of you show-and-telling your toys 💗

[@Lisa_Papez]

Hee hee! Love that!

[@jessicasouza7887]

The pure joy when you show us the unicorn!!!!!

[@dinafair4576]

I had to watch again. This is so life giving. The play, smiles, giggles and pure child joy. Thank you for sharing and encouraging pure happiness and play.

[@Nightsong93]

What a great idea! I would definitely get some temporary tattoos, stickers, books, glitter pens, nancy drew books, unicorn anything LOL

[@JenSightsLifeCoaching]

OMG YOUR FURREAL UNICORN IS THE CUTEST FREAKING THING!!!!!!!!! And I've never seen Shopkins, those are adorable!

[@VerucaS9lt]

This is so inspirational. 💖💖 I used to love drawing, I did it as a way to self soothe, and because I I it so often, I was good at it. And then going to art school, I feel, absolutely destroyed that part of me. Something that once was done to bring me joy now brought me so much anxiety. After watching this, I'm going to try drawing again, with no pressure, and just for the sheer joy of creation. The drawings will for sure contain unicorns and princesses! 💗

[@Lisa_Papez]

YAY! OMG this gave me goosebumps - please do have fun drawing again!!!

[@shannonkilpatrick6054]

As someone who loves playing music, and then got a degree in it, I hear you. The pressure to achieve technical perfection can be crushing. You become so focused on the details, you forget to have fun. It wasn't until I found a "jam group" that I found the fun again. But it will happen. And we love unicorn princesses!

[@VerucaS9lt]

@@Lisa_Papez I will, thank you for the push I got from your video! 💗💖💗

[@VerucaS9lt]

@@shannonkilpatrick6054 You nailed the feeling. I will think of your kind sympathy as I listen to music while drawing. 💚

[@ailsaek477]

I have regretted for years that I never went to art school. Thank you for helping me let go of that.

[@pamelabatchelor9204]

Lisa, I feel like when I watch your show I’m seeing the real Lisa. I really appreciate you and your sharing so much. You help me with myself so much. Thank you

[@Lisa_Papez]

What a beautiful and meaningful compliment - thank you so much!

[@yiotanikolopoulou6247]

This video made me cry. Thank you much. What I've always loved about your videos is that inner child that comes out in the walkthroughs and inspired me to get into tarot. For that, I am grateful.

[@Lisa_Papez]

Aw, I'm so so glad that sharing this stuff is helpful to others!!! :)

[@kendramarie690]

I am one that needed this. I understand how you feel and your way of expressing is how I would have to. Thank you!!🦄

[@phoenixrising4719]

I thought this was fab.. Got myself a fluffy unicorn 🦄 yesterday after watching this video. Thanks for sharing your inner child helped me find mine 😊💖😊

[@megdalena01]

I wish I could give this extra likes for that smile when you got out your unicorn. OMG. This video makes me want to go to the store and buy all the toys!

[@luciev.7844]

Your unicorn pet!! 😍 one of my kids got the pony one such a fun toy. Don’t know who was playing more with it 😎 I have some toys from my childhood - books, Schleich animals, Monchhichi, DVD’s. I’m definitely reliving my childhood through my kids omg kinetic sand - so addicting ( I would describe it like a fresh brown sugar minus the stickiness), Lego, Playmobil, colouring, so much fun stuff to play with. I completely believe everyone should find time to play - that’s my kind of meditation 🌟 Thank you for sharing Lisa !! 🦄 🧸

[@Lisa_Papez]

Yes! Just like not-sticky fresh brown sugar!

[@ambersblushmoon384]

Ohh Star Lily!!! 🦄😍💖🥰

[@cherylpierson4462]

I love that you give yourself the permission and ability to play and collect toys. I’m 60 and have recently begun collecting stuffies, squishmellows, and other toys that just seem to want to come home with me. My most recent is a stuffed kiwi. My 20 year old grandchild was with me and laughed. “ The kiwi is coming home with us huh”. They also have enabled my playing and being a child. Thank you for normalizing this.

[@Lisa_Papez]

YAY! That stuffed Kiwi sounds GREAT!

[@bunnysaurusrexx1664]

Now I want a fur real pet it's so cute, I want the dragon one. I collect plushies and toys as well (mostly care bears) so it always makes me super happy to see other adults enjoying them too. Your never to old for cute things that make you happy 😊 Loved the video and seeing your collection.

[@Lisa_Papez]

OMG there's a dragon one?!?! :D

[@bunnysaurusrexx1664]

[@dinafair4576]

This is me!! I love Build a Bear, I like coloring and baby dolls. I always have cozy blankets. Now I have more ideas. 💗💗💗

[@nemiatarot497]

Thank you for this video. Inner Child work was a real breakthrough for me. I made a little Inner Child altar to honour the child I was and accept her. So this video is right up my alley. Thank you for your openness and creativity. You must have been a wonderful child. Downloaded your book right now.

[@Lisa_Papez]

I'm so glad this was helpful!!

[@handlewithcare.T]

Eeeekkk!!! So good and so much fun to watch.

[@JenSightsLifeCoaching]

One thing I loved to do as a child that I "pull out" when I need to do some Inner Child work is, I'd take a blank sheet of paper and scribble all over it with a black marker. Then I'd try to find images in the scribbles and color those in. It's almost a sort of scrying exercise in a way. I hope that makes sense.

[@Lisa_Papez]

OMG that sounds so fun!!!

[@nebana4995]

OMG I was smiling all the way through this video. I’m also doing inner child work and something that I noticed is how easy is to forget about the needs of my inner child. Thank you so much for this video, it reminded me so much of what I used to enjoy as a child 🥹💗

[@ailsaek477]

That was such fun. I was a seventies child, so my inner child likes shocking pink and hunter orange. I have a useful basket, I need to create a kit now. The cards keep telling me to follow my heart, focus on what gives me joy, and I think this might be the gateway to it.

[@pamjournalcreate]

What a great video, thanks 💕💕✨✨🌙🌙 i think i need to watch that intro like five more times. In my adult life i been told by many partners that im too innocent and sensitive for this world, and it was always said in a negative, degrading way.... but a few of your words made me realize that being innocent and sensitive doesn’t has to be a weakness it can be a strength... thanks for that, and thanks for bringing your beautiful, cheerful energy to this world. Lots to think and journal about 🦄🦄

[@Lisa_Papez]

YES!! It can sure as heck be a strength!! Don't let anyone dim your light.... shine it bright, beautiful soul!

[@carole5648]

this is so helpful. i wasn't even very childlike when i was a child, and now i have a child and i feel like i don't even know how to play. but this gave me lots of fun ideas. I would certainly have a lisa frank pencil case for my markers! and just go shopping at a toystore, for myself (i do that sometimes actually). my son got his first happy meal the other day and that really brought me back, just the excitement for the toy.

[@Levongrova]

I love this video. I actually consider myself a little/middle, for those who know and find all these things a great way to connect with my inner child ❤️ My bedroom is full of plushies and cute animal figurines & posters

[@RumerHaven]

Am literally in tears giggling over that unicorn. 🤣 Not just it, but your reaction is DELIGHTFUL! 😄💕 I created a self-care toolkit straight after seeing your earlier video on that (so brilliant), and it did indeed, inadvertently, become an inner-child kit as well! Has given me such comfort and joy, like a hug in a basket-and your channel does, too, so thank you for always being such a light, Lisa. ✨

[@Lisa_Papez]

Hee hee!! I really hesitated after filming this video because I really did legit get so into that inner child space making this one so there was definitely a vulnerable moment. It means so much that it's been so well received!

[@RumerHaven]

@@Lisa_Papez Oh my goodness, that totally came across and took me on that magical journey right along with you! 🦄💖✨

[@coreyparson9906]

I loved this video. It inspired me to buy one of those squishy mesh balls for myself. I loved them as a kid.

[@Lisa_Papez]

YES!!! I hope you love it!

[@tarotmumma56]

Wow love this! Cannot wait for payday I’m off to buy some inner child supplies 💕

[@Lisa_Papez]

YAY!

[@aiatarlill]

What a cute pair - you and the unicorn. Almost as cute as you and Peggy:-D I can't believe you know all the ponies' names. Does everyone? I grew up in the USSR and the things you have in your toy box are things that I used to drewl over in Western TV commercials we illegally watched. Don't get me wrong, I had a super happy childhood and in many ways I'm very happy it was much less commercial than my nieces have now. And if I want a toy I can easily buy one now. After watching this video I will feel a bit less weird about it. And you know, I might just go and get myself my first ever pony or care bear. Thank you, your joy was lovely to see!

[@Lisa_Papez]

Ooooh I hope you do that for yourself!!!!! :) I don't think everyone knows their names, but the same characters do show up in basically every episode of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic so anyone who watches enough episodes will probably know their names!! :)

[@lilykatmoon4508]

This is a great idea! I’m going to have a lot of fun with this!

[@shannonkilpatrick6054]

Love this so hard. I'm sorry your family behaved so badly. My inner protector wants to go kick butt on behalf of little you. But I'm glad you have reclaimed your rainbow power, and shower us all with inner child sparkles. You are seen. And you help us be ok with that child-like side of ourselves. And seeing you go 5 with toy show & tell, and your interactive unicorn 🦄 was the best!!!

[@Lisa_Papez]

Thank you for seeing me!! I legit felt a bit vulnerable after finishing this video - but am so glad I hit upload!

[@valeriarainato2212]

Thank you for sharing, I loved your video! For me is video games, I enjoyed playing Mario Bros a lot when I was a child and I still do. Definitely Nintendo switch is my jam for inner child work.

[@Lisa_Papez]

YAS I should have totally mentioned my Switch! I like Animal Crossing and Yoshi's Crafted World for inner child funtimes!

This gave me permission to do this inner child work and wow, I'm so excited. I took notes. lol

[@SandiSandiASMR]

this video is everything! I have been going through a rough time lately and a few months ago I randomly and quite impulsively bought a soft little teddy bear that has little embroidered patches and mending stitches and under his foot it says Nobody is perfect. I keep him on a dresser in my bedroom so I see him everyday when I get up and it has just helped me in so many ways. Also something that really helps me tap into that sense of playfulness and joy is playing Animal Crossing! 💖 if there is one thing that has kept me sane during the pandemic it is that game and the community surrounding it! Do you play ACNH Lisa? 😊

[@Lisa_Papez]

YES! I so regret not mentioning Animal Crossing and Yoshi's Crafted World for inner child stuff!

I can already tell this is going to be a painfully beautiful and needed video...Where's my tissues?

[@annelyle5474]

In my attic I have two Aibos (robot "dogs") that I bought back in 2003 to keep me company after I broke up with my ex, and a huge box of Playmobil that I started collecting when I was choreographing fight scenes for my fantasy novels. I think this means I'm already in touch with my Inner Child 😀

[@K_Peck]

I just bought Fluttershy at an antique store last weekend 😂 I loved the Littlest Pet shop pets. I bought my daughter a ton of them when she was little but I played with them too and there were some I wanted to save and my ex-husband and his new wife gave them all away to her nieces without asking me. I was soooo mad.

[@Lisa_Papez]

At an antique store!? Oh my! She's not THAT old LOLLLLLLL but I love that! :) Littlest Pet Shop toys are great fun!! I'm so sorry to hear your ex did that... yuck :( A good excuse to buy some new toys, maybe?

[@K_Peck]

@@Lisa_Papez Yes I think it's definitely time to buy some new toys! I love those Japanese erasers that look like food and you can take them apart and put them back together.

I love your face at your beautiful unicorn. I recently found online a robot toy elephant which im DYING to have.

[@Lisa_Papez]

YES ROBOT ELEPHANT!

[@violat1603]

I have a tip, it is not about toys or things but a way to allow yourself to be silly and play. If you have a dog, play with it.Get down on the ground on their level, dig a bit, run around, wrestle. Play dog with the dog.

[@Lisa_Papez]

YES!!! Playing with my pups is such a great way to access inner child energy! Thanks for this!

[@mogvgb]

Your Inner Child kit is a lot like my stim kit.
