KARMIC THERAPY AND PERSONALITY PATTERNS
By Stephen Proskauer MD | October 22, 2007
Trauma stored in the body as localized pain or tension can generate the limiting beliefs that underlie personality problems. The mental equivalent of a physical block is a fixed idea about the self and the world, a false conclusion drawn in reaction to pain and fear, a false belief upon which a habitual pattern of dysfunctional thinking and behavior is based.
This form of karmic impairment can be limited to only one or two aspects of functioning or it can take the form of a pervasive set of assumptions imposed upon every facet of life, such as the paranoid position, “trust nobody.” The frozen karmic pattern inhibits and distorts the expression of life energy and stifles inner freedom, preventing the personality from becoming fully integrated. Responses to other people and situations are rigid and warped, dysfunctional and self-defeating.
In Karmic Therapy the process of reliving and releasing the traumatic memories upon which the personality problems are based brings negative beliefs to the surface and allows them to be changed in accord with a more objective and mature understanding. Then attitudes about current situations need no longer be governed by outmoded patterns established long ago.
