Re: How to Reconcile with Dastardly Deeds Done in a Past Life?

Hi,

You're very welcome. I hope that it helps. I re-read your original post and the theme of 'victim' seems to be there, in your last life and in your life as a soldier. As a soldier, you were to follow orders which you would have believed to have been legitimate and following your commitment to your country.

However, if you felt that you had been duped, then you would have been a victim. Perhaps this is the theme that you must resolve in this lifetime. Taking responsibility would cause you to remove yourself from that theme and move proactively through your life, rather than waiting for others to make decisions for you, decisions to which you would have only a defensive action. Just a thought.

A few years ago, my husband and I had the opportunity to participate in Breatherapy. That is supposed to be a very quick way to clear out a lot of 'stuff' -- and I believe it! I had made an mistake in the cost of the course; I thought that the course was the cost of only one lesson!! Needless to say, that was shortlived at the time. I did two sessions and my husband did only one, but we were amazed by the amount of junk that we let go with just that small amount of time. Ten is the standard number per course.

Breatherapy involves a special way of taking in air and letting it out; there must be a facilitator to watch over you. We had been going through a nightmare of very low earnings and almost survival concerns -- although we are both well educated. It was bizarre (and now past!)

In my first session (one hour), as I did the breathing, I became almost paralyzed; my hands curled up and I could barely speak to the facilitator -- I was alarmed but she said that I was fine. As the hour moved along, I passed through this paralyzed effect and finally became normal again. The facilitator said that I was not living life, that I was trapped inside, frozen. This seemed to be quite true because I had no hope of life improving at that time. In the second session, I felt euphoric and felt as though I were 'dancing' underwater -- moving in slow motion. I remember that my arms were moving about as though I were dancing. I was SO relaxed after that. And, although I had only two sessions, they had a tremendous effect on me. I really started to move into studying areas of interest to me, etc., and I consider Breatheraphy to me a MOST worthwhile endeavour.

My husband, who is a quiet and clever man -- who does not address those hidden emotions which we all have jammed into a little box -- felt as though flames were shooting out of his feet and asked the facilitator to remove his socks and then he had a weeping session for about 15 minutes. He felt wonderful after that!

Our facilitator has left the area; our small progress in those sessions has made huge difference in our ability to move forward. I remember that there was a young woman there who had been abused and very much a victim; she was thrilled at having done the course because she said that she had worked through and eliminated a lot of bad stuff. She was a glowing testament for this course.!

There are not hours of self-analysis involved in this; it is simply this special way of breathing that brings the problems to the surface and eliminates them.

Tom Lodge, who designed Breatherapy, has a little book, Success Without Goals. He states that Perceptual Balancing (which he also designed) increases your intuition, your creativity and teaches you the knack of being in the present as well as the ability to turn your awareness in -- into your own centre. Second, Breatherapy frees you from the programs caused by past traumas. Third, Witnessing frees you from your cultural conditioning, allowing you to be your true self, instead of a victim of old habits.

For information about these -- perhaps there is someone in your area, you can contact Tom or Pat Lodge, 396 Brunswick Avenue, Toronto, Ontario Canada M5R 2Z4. The telephone is 416-967-4387.

I don't know if they are even there any more, but it might be worth a try; the publisher is Lloyds Mayfair Books.

Kindest thoughts.
