Thursday, April 15th, 2010Precisely because perinatal scripts reflectour karmic agendas so accurately, intimate relationships offer us compelling opportunities for new learning. The love for another person—be it a child, a parent, a friend or a lover—can challenge as nothing else the power of personal desire for pleasure, power, and other forms of ego […]
Humanizing the Birth Experience
Friday, April 9th, 2010The standard obstetrical approach to birth in modern hospitals (involving, for instance, emotionally sterile conditions, cold delivery rooms, anesthesia, early clamping of the cord and separation of mother and infant) has surely enhanced the possibility of traumatizing both mother and infant. Karmic Therapy findings strongly support the work of […]
Echoes from the Womb
Friday, March 26th, 2010The intrauterine period seems to have enormous and largely unappreciated significance. It is not only the physical environment that impacts the growing organism but mother’s thoughts, moods, and emotions, both conscious and unconscious. Perhaps because this input is absorbed by the baby while it is still physically one with the […]
Awareness during Coma and Anesthesia
Friday, February 26th, 2010The rich recollections of a young child’s experience recovering from an automobile accident contradict the naive assumptions about coma and anesthesia that prevail in technologically sophisticated medicine. We might provide more compassionate support for our fellow beings as they pass through illnesses, accidents, surgical operations and other crises if we assumed that they were absorbing […]
Karmic Influences Can Dominate a Person’s Entire Life
Thursday, February 4th, 2010Frozen, locked in karmic patterns can generate limiting beliefs and disabling life scripts. Sometimes karmic influences completely dominate every aspect of a person’s life. The process of recalling episodes from childhood, the prenatal period and other lifetimes can help patients to change negative beliefs about themselves and the world and cut the roots of dysfunctional […]
Limiting Beliefs and Personality Problems
Tuesday, February 2nd, 2010Trauma stored in the body as localized pain or tension can give rise to the limiting beliefs that underlie personality problems. The mental equivalent of tension in the body is a fixed idea about the self and the world, a false conclusion in reaction to pain and fear, a belief upon which a habitual pattern […]
Sheila’s Fifth Block: Leg Tension
Tuesday, January 19th, 2010Then Sheila noticed her legs had become tense: “I’m afraid to move forward. I’m so scared! I’m afraid to be alone and go out on my own. I’m afraid to let you go. You never loved me, but I’m afraid to let go of the illusion, the dream, the potential of what it could be.” […]
Sheila’s Fourth Block: Bellyache
Sunday, January 17th, 2010Now Sheila’s backache had released and a fourth block emerged into her awareness, a tightness in her belly. Encouraged to let this tightness speak, Sheila addressed her father again: “I’m sick of carrying you! You have to let me go and let me be who I am. I can’t carry you and make you look […]
Sheila’s Third Block: Backache
Friday, January 15th, 2010Sheila’s headache was gone now, revealing her third block: pain in
her back. I asked what her backache wanted to say. “You never supported me. All you cared about was my going to school and earning money. You never came to any of my softball games or even read the poetry I wrote. All you cared […]
A Key Moment of Decision
Wednesday, January 13th, 2010At this point, I asked Sheila to go back to the specific incident when
she made the decision not to count on her father. Sheila recalled having been molested at the age of seven by some high school boys who were her father’s tenants: “I told you about those boys, but you were too afraid to […]
