Most people are under the impression that repressed memories are something we need to go to a hypnotist, psychologist or healer to uncover.
They don’t realize that these unintegrated, subconscious traumas are being presented to us everyday through the unfolding circumstances that cause us to become upset.
These upsets can seem random (like someone cutting us off in traffic) or feel like they are deliberately instigated by the ones closest to us (like our lover cheating on us, leaving us feeling unattractive or worthless).
But neither of these represent the whole truth to the meaning behind these occurrences.
The part that we often miss is that each upset feeling is a harbinger, a clue pointing us to our past traumas that are coming up for a reason…for our emotional evolution…and facilitated by our higher self.
Once we are able to tune into the “feeling” that these current events bring up, without reacting or projecting outwardly, we have direct access to the suppressed emotional content, and we can integrate it through simply “be-ing” with it and aiming our attention at it.
This simple yet powerful tool has the potential to shift ALL of our relationships as we learn to be non-reactive and become a safe container for ourself.
It takes some practice and will-power to rethread the tapestry, that we were imprinted by, through our caregivers and society from such an early age.
The programming that taught us to react in order to get what we want has to be unlearned in order for us to witness the power of containment, non-doing and direct alchemy of the energy resonating within us.
These skills can change the entire course of our lives in the direction of personal peace without any observable movement needed on our part.
Here’s the greatest part…we don’t need to know the details of the story, what happened to us, who wronged us and what we need to do to “retrieve our souls” or “restore our innocence”.
All we need access to is our ability to listen, feel and observe the sensations in our body without judging, controlling, distracting or redirecting.
In order to self-facilitate deep integration, the Who, What, When or Why of our past traumas is not necessary to dig up! Our only concern is HOW it made us feel.
The “HOW” comes as a feeling, not as a thought or an explanation or a story. It comes as physical sensations in the body…perhaps a tingling, burning, numbness, fluttering, stiffening, aching or a build up of pressure or heat.
This is part of what The Presence Process teaches, and one of the tools I’m most passionate about because it has improved the quality of my life so much.
