The following case example demonstrates how, in my experience, unresolved past life trauma can influence current emotional functioning. Once my client set her goal, we used what I call a Soul Detective protocol, from my book Invisible Roots, to trace its origin to a past life trauma and then cleared the emotional disturbance from the previous incarnation by treating a reversal and then tapping on points for the organs involved with fear: stomach (under the eye), spleen (under the arm), and kidney (under the collarbone). When we release the negative life beliefs imprinted from our former incarnations, we are free to let the light of love shine through our hearts!
Love Phobia
Virginia wanted to work on her fear of totally loving and receiving unconditional love. She had difficulty really opening to loving herself and felt embarrassment around her emotions. She noticed a pattern of “checking out” in interpersonal relationships because she got afraid of being consumed.
Muscle Testing
I use clinical kinesiology, also called muscle testing, to gather information from the client's energy system about the exact nature of the disturbance. Muscle testing is based on a very simple principle, that if one makes a true statement and tests the strength of a muscle, usually the deltoid muscle of an extended arm, the muscle will hold strong. When testing the same muscle after saying a statement that is not true, the muscle will weaken. This true-false guide gives us a way to trace the origin of the problem at hand. Muscle testing is an art, and one needs training in muscle testing to avoid the pitfalls which can cut down on the accuracy of this method. The two major factors that can interfere with accuracy are not being centered and/or trying to influence the outcome.
To check for the origin of an issue, one can muscle test the statement, “This problem has an origin in a past life trauma.” If this muscle test is strong, then double-checked by muscle testing the statement, “This problem does not have an origin in a past life trauma.” If both the client and the practitioner are centered and this muscle test is weaker, the client’s energy system indicates that past life trauma is involved.
Further muscle testing with Virginia indicated the spirit of someone who had past life trauma with her was presently influencing her because of unfinished business between their souls. In Soul Detective work we call this feature an “obsessive spirit.” The following past life emerged:
Deep Love
John, the obsessive spirit, was born in 113 B.C. on the west coast of North American in the area now called the Yukon Province in Canada. Sue, going by Virginia in this past incarnation, was three years younger than John. They loved each other very, very deeply. They married and had one child together. Their happiest times were sitting by the fire together at the end of the day.
When Sue was 23 years old, she went into labor with their second child. Foreboding arose, and she felt very uneasy. She knew that she would die during this labor in an extremely painful way, losing the new baby in the process. The little baby girl crossed into the Light right away when she died. But Sue was in such emotional turmoil about leaving John, knowing how much pain her death would cause him, that her spirit remained earthbound. She was so blinded by her agony that she was unaware that her spirit had left her body. Virginia’s soul felt the imprint of this trauma that Sue was still locked into. Deep soul love for an intimate partner had resulted in a pregnancy which caused Sue’s death. In her current life, intimacy brought Virginia fear that she would be consumed again.
2,000 Years of Patience
Because of his immense love for her, John stayed earthbound for over two thousand years and found her again in her lifetime as Virginia. He wanted this wound healed! Sue’s trauma was configured in two layers. She did not even realize that her spirit had left her body and that time had gone on without her. First, we needed to clear a reversal, and we muscle tested that the very best treatment point to clear it was at the third eye, also called the brow chakra. Virginia tapped on her forehead asking Sue to say,
“Even though I did not realize my spirit left my body and I have been locked into this agony for thousands of years, I love and accept myself.
Even though I died in the service of bringing new life to the planet, I totally and completely love and accept myself.
Even though John has been waiting for me all this time because he loves me so deeply, I love and accept myself and forgive myself for not knowing what happened.”
I used a customized procedure to muscle test for which point to tap first, then whether or not another one is needed and if so, where, etc. This customized procedure for Sue yielded just three points: under the eye (UE), under the arm (UA), and the Collarbone Point (CB). This sequence is the exact three-point sequence Roger Callahan taught in his book Five Minute Phobia Cure: Dr. Callahan's Treatment for Fears, Phobias and Self-Sabotage (1985, Enterprise Publishing). Once Sue cleared her fear, she was ready to cross. With John and Sue walking hand in hand, their little girl came running to meet her parents in a very joyful reunion! Virginia reveled in the experience of John and Sue giving and receiving the full depth of their love for each other.
To do a spiritual cleansing of the trauma of this lifetime and all the negative imprints Virginia had been holding about loving being unsafe, I used Matrix Energetics Universal Healing Frequency number 9, “The Spiritual cleanser.” Richard Bartlett, the originator of Matrix Energetics, was given 21 universal frequencies that govern healing in the human species. Whenever I call upon one of these healing frequencies, I feel as if a band of angels specializing in that area jumps into action! One simply asks the client to call the number of the frequency that is needed at the moment. For example, number one is Vitality, number five is the essence of Universal Mother Love, and number 12 is for Energy Center Repair of chakras. The 21 frequencies feel like healing shortcuts to help clients reach their goals.
Soul Lesson
Love! Love is eternal and cannot be destroyed. Fear of experiencing this love blocks it. Nothing exists but the present moment. Although we have no way of understanding the events in our lives at the time, the outcome is love. When something bad happens, we connect it to love, but the pain and suffering is really separate. In reality, the event is just something we went through. Love is forever.
