Glossary entry (derived from question below)
English term or phrase:
your own inner language
English answer:
describe your inner journey in subjective way and own words
English term
your own inner language
I’m not sure about the meaning of “your own inner language” in the context below, taken from a workbook on a meditation practice called “The wheel of awareness”. I think that here it may mean “in your own words”....
What’s your opinion?
Thank you so much for your attention!
******************
Over the past weeks you have likely committed some of my guided "instructions" for the Wheel practice to memory. You have also likely developed your own inner compass that guides you just as surely, if not more. In the space below, I invite you to write your own "instructions" using the entirely personal signposts that guide you as you move through your personal Wheel practice. Perhaps the rim "segments" for you are not segments at all, perhaps they are regions... or mental landscapes. Perhaps you see the image in three dimensions, more as a sphere, and this is your sphere of awareness. *** In your own inner language,*** describe your journey through the Wheel.
(at the end of this section there are some empty pages, in which the reader can write his/her own reflections..)

(describe) your inner journey in subjective way and own words
because people may see and describe this journey/experience in different ways
speak from the heart, subjectively rather than objectively, of your own jouney

inner language (=subjective language) is fine as it's describing the (mental =inner) journey

Glad to have helped
| dear Yvonne, thank you so much! so maybe "inner" should have been placed before "journey" than before "language"... |

your own words
| Thank you, Oliver, for your contribution! At first, I also was of the same opinion, but now, reading Yvonne's answer, maybe "inner" does have some meaning? |
In your inner self understanding, ...
| Thank you, Clauwolf, for your contribution! |
