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 .
