Stefanie Stahl's model: shadow child, adult self and sun child

Stahl's method is based on three central elements:

  1. The shadow child: This part represents our wounded sides and beliefs such as "I am not important" or "I am not enough".
  2. The adult ego: The rational and reflective part of our personality helps us to break old patterns and develop new, healthy beliefs.
  3. The child of the sun: This state embodies our strengths, resources and positive beliefsthat we can consciously use.

In her lecture, Stahl explained that we can initiate healing by consciously confronting our beliefs. She emphasized how important it is to step out of old identifications and adopt an observant attitude.

Practical exercises for everyday life

What is particularly impressive is that Stefanie Stahl combines her method with easy-to-implement exercises. These make the theory tangible and help to anchor changes in everyday life:

  • Catch and switch: As soon as we realize that we are in old patterns, we can consciously switch to the adult ego and change our behavior.
  • Dialog with the inner child: Regular conversations - in writing or internally - with the shadow child help to find a reconciliatory solution. Relationship to yourself.
  • The sun child template: This exercise shows us how we can consciously strengthen and activate our positive parts.

An emotional example from her presentation is the story of Michael and Sabine. Michael's shadow child felt hurt by Sabine's forgetfulness because old beliefs such as "I'm not important" were triggered. Thanks to the exercises, both were able to recognize these patterns, defuse conflicts and improve their relationship.
