LIBERATING SUPPRESSED EMOTIONS — RETURNING TO A SENSE OF WHOLENESS

These are some inspiring and insightful passages in “Quantum SHIFT: Healing the Fragmented Soul” by Lorna Wilson

 

— “Everyone carries a shadow, and the less it is embodied in the individual’s conscious life, the blacker and denser it is. At all counts, it forms an unconscious snag, thwarting our most well-meant intentions.” Carl Jung

‘Fragmentation’ or the creation of what we perceive to be negative feelings or emotions, remain buried within the shadow ‘parts’ of our consciousness, whether created through the stories of past-life individuals, or the current-life personality. They are compartmentalizations of the fragmented self and are similar in their effect on the current personality. Reintegration of these unconscious stories does not negate the value of the lessons learned or the value of life issues, but it does initiate closure for the current personality. By liberating the suppressed emotions, a unification takes place within the self, returning to one a sense of wholeness.

To simplify things, let’s think about aspects of ourselves, or our soul, as consisting of parts that are in the ‘shadow’ or unconscious, not visible but affecting us adversely. Integrating them creates wholeness. A shaman ‘sees’ through an altered state of an expanded consciousness where problems may be, or what they are exactly. This is similar to what occurs during a hypnosis session, or any other non-physical exploration, as our own subconscious mind knows, holds the answers, and has recorded our individual history.

Soul ‘retrieval’ is not exclusive to shamanic techniques, although it is one way to attain lasting results. The subconscious knows what is needed and will therefore initiate its own process to achieve the desired results. 

Session – An Interesting Way Our Shadow 'Stuff' Can Look Dark 

I had some theta music playing quietly in the background to distract the noise of the neighbors as it was a weekend session and outdoor sounds were a bit more active. Leading up to a ‘significant moment’ the client tells me that she hears music in the background. Because I’d quietly put on the music, I hadn’t known if she was speaking about the music in the room or if it were something in her mind. She spoke about the music emitting waves of energy all around her. I told her to just be with the music and to see what it brought to mind.

C.  I see an image of something hunching forward, but I’m seeing it from the side. It’s a black face with wings. I can see the wings. It looks like it’s sad as it’s hunching forward; I can’t see the face.

L.  Let’s see why your subconscious has brought this to mind. What do you sense about this thing? You mentioned wings... is it bird like?  

C.  It’s human and is turned to the side so that I can only see the wings.  

L.  Go backward to just before this thing with the wings came to be there. Let’s find out what led up to this moment and what’s going on for it that led up to the hunched feeling of sadness.

C.  It doesn’t talk to me.

L.  Mentally – like telepathy – ask it to help you to understand more.

C.  Maybe the sound of the music is healing that angelic person.

L.  Ask it if it’s connected to you or wants you to know something.

C.  Goya came to mind, that sadness in Goya’s painting. It’s now looking at me.

L.  Ask it what it wants you to know or understand.

C.  It just says one-word “heal”.

L.  What does it mean to heal?

C.  I think it’s me because when I asked is it me, it felt happy.

We explore this more and she discovers that it’s her heart that carries the sadness. The figure is representative of her heart and that the loneliness from her childhood is the source. It shows her the life experiences that caused that, by bringing back childhood memories and past lives. The goal was that she was to discover that it’s time to take care of herself.
