Childhood Trauma Reactivates Karmic Scripts
By Stephen Proskauer MD | October 13, 2009
The events of childhood seem to reinforce key karmic scripts and lock them into place. Sometimes there is a key moment in childhood when an incident happens that anchors old karmic themes into a life script. Rick had intractable headaches and a rebellious attitude toward authorities that got him into all kinds of trouble. First Rick recalled a fatal battle wound in the head from a life in which he was fighting against the tyranny of a cruel overlord, then he released trauma from a difficult birth in which the obstetrician was just barely able to wrench Rick’s head through his mother’s tight pelvis with forceps. Finally, Rick remembered being pushed off a swing at the age of seven by a bully and hitting his head on the concrete. He suffered only a mild concussion, but his lifelong pattern of headaches and anger against those in power was ignited by that childhood experience. After he released the pain and fear associated with these incidents, Rick’s headaches diminished in frequency and severity.
For some other child who was not carrying Rick’s karmic baggage of head trauma and anger at those in power, a fall from a swing might have had little impact. Individual karmic differences help us to understand why the same childhood experience has a minor influence on one person and a life-changing effect on another.
