Realm Of Sub Personalities and Foreign Entities
Realm Of Sub Personalities and Foreign Entities
This is a session that was inspired by the theory that sub-personalities can be created by traumatic incidents, and that each of these parts of our total personality can be resolved or treated as a client of their own.
I had just read the book Soul-Centered Healing: A Psychologist ' s Extraordinary Journey Into the Realms of Sub-Personalities, Spirits, and Past Lives by ' Thomas Zinser ' and was in a creative and curious mood to explore the essence of his experiences.
My client was a young woman with " fear of everything " and she was able to activate a full-blown panic every time she relaxed, was on her own or about to fall asleep / wake up. When she panicked she felt like she had " a hole in her chest with a fog inside it as if shot with a cannon ball ". When she came to me she also had a great fear of " dying suddenly, without getting a chance to realize it ". Let me just state that I am not a believer, or a non-believer. I am a curious pragmatic working with the clients best in mind. If I have a hunch something " out of the normal " is the right thing to do I usually ask if they are open to try something that may " seem out of their comfort zone " and explain that they do not need to believe in it, just give it a try.
Her story reminded me so much of the cases in the book, where she in a previous life may( or may not) have experienced a sudden death by a cannon ball through her chest and carried an unresolved trauma that manifested as a worry every time she was about to let her consciousness go, as in falling asleep or letting the mind wander. One of the reasons for not wanting to die without realizing is the perspective of wanting to avoid becoming an earthbound entity sticking around because it hasn ' t realized it should move on- a concept that many cultures mention.
Again- the cannon ball and sudden death could all be a metaphor or generalization of her subconscious as well- it is not about my or her beliefs, it just crossed my mind that part of her was very worried about dying without advance notice and therefore panicked when she relaxed.
