Client Background

My client, Amrita, is seeking her second session following an initial hypnotherapy session approximately four months ago. Her primary presenting concern was Psoriasis, then, which developed in 2022.

Initial Session ( 4 Months Ago):

The first session focused on Inner Child work to address the emotional root of the Psoriasis. The underlying core issues identified were significant grief and fear stemming from the loss of both parents within a span of two and a half years.

Outcome of Initial Session :

The client reported a considerable improvement, with her Psoriasis coming under control following the release of the associated grief and fear.

(Note: This session follows the therapist’s completion of the Amarantos PLR course.)

Day 1, session 1

November 1, 2025, (11 AM to 2 PM)

Stages 1-6

History

Amrita, a 37-year-old woman, is the only child of her parents. She developed psoriasis around six months after her mother’s death, and it escalated rapidly, especially during the winter months. Her dermatologist noted unusually high cortisol levels and linked the flare-ups to stress.

Amrita believes that much of her life has been shaped by an inner duality, as she feels she is equally left-brained and right-brained. She currently lives with her aunt, a lifelong dream, and feels compelled to understand her purpose in this relationship and how she can contribute to her aunt’s happiness.

Early Childhood Experiences

Amrita’s earliest memory is of seeing her aunt, an experience she describes as a conscious soul registering the first presence it encountered. From childhood, she never perceived her aunt as a parental figure; instead, she felt instinctively responsible for her, as though she had come into this life to care for her. The relationship between her mother and aunt was emotionally charged, marked by affection and tension. Amrita often sensed that her mother felt jealous of the aunt because of Amrita’s deep attachment to her. This perception made Amrita feel protective toward her aunt, creating a sense of loyalty and emotional responsibility at a very young age.

She recalls her childhood as generally happy and full of unconditional love, although she recognises that her parents did not discipline her much. Both parents came from highly restricted childhoods. Her father’s family had migrated from Bangladesh and rebuilt their lives from very limited means, while her mother’s side was somewhat better off but still emotionally restrained. Her parents compensated for their own deprivation by showering her with affection. Her maternal grandmother played a grounding role in her life, teaching her morals and providing the sense of stability she valued above all else.

Amrita grew up in an environment where her parents frequently fought. The constant conflict generated distress, and she coped by dissociating and immersing herself in play, creating an emotional bubble that protected her from the chaos around her. However, her aunt would often ask her to intervene and to ask her parents to stop arguing, which deeply disturbed her because it broke the bubble she had created. She disliked conflict and avoided it strongly as a child. Over time, her parents’ relationship improved significantly, especially after her mother was transferred to Mumbai, where physical distance helped them work through their differences.

Adolescence and Education

Amrita studied in a Catholic girls’ school and grew up in a highly protected environment. Her college years in Kolkata were liberating and offered her a sense of independence she had not experienced before. She pursued engineering in Biotechnology primarily because it aligned with her childhood dream of pursuing higher studies abroad. She always knew what she was working toward in terms of education, although she had never thought about what her life would look like after her studies.

Life Abroad – PhD, Postdoc, and Emotional Challenges

Moving to the United States for her PhD marked a profound period of growth for Amrita. It was transformative, teaching her independence, self-reliance, and the ability to make major life decisions. However, academia soon revealed itself as a difficult environment. She struggled with internal politics, financial instability, and the lack of clarity around future career progression. Additionally, her visa status created continuous uncertainty, leaving her feeling vulnerable and dependent on external circumstances. Anxiety began during her PhD years and gradually intensified, eventually leading her to seek therapy.

She was in a long-term relationship with a college friend during this time, but the distance and emotional pressures strained the relationship deeply. Another major emotional shock occurred when her father passed away during her Postdoc. The loss was devastating, as she felt she had lost her emotional anchor. When she returned to the US after the funeral, her professor informed her that he no longer had funding to support her position. This left her without a job, without security, and without family support in a foreign country. During this period, she experienced severe panic attacks and extreme levels of anxiety.

She moved from California to New Jersey in search of work, initially living with friends and later in a hostel because it was affordable. Eventually, she found a job, got her own apartment, and began rebuilding some stability. During therapy, she was diagnosed with Chronic Anxiety Disorder. When her H1B visa did not get approved, she made the conscious choice to return to India

Return to India and Identity Struggles

Amrita moved to Hyderabad, where her company absorbed her into a full-time position without requiring any transition. Although she was grateful for the stability, she entered a phase of deep introspection, struggling with questions of identity and purpose—wondering who she truly was and what direction she wanted her life to take. Her mother visited her occasionally, but their interactions often triggered unresolved tensions. Her mother frequently misinterpreted Amrita’s suggestions as criticism, and Amrita felt unheard and unseen inreturn.

Covid Period, Mother’s Death, and Aftermath

The onset of the Covid pandemic brought Amrita back to Kolkata, where she lived with her mother after many years. Old patterns resurfaced, and they faced frequent conflicts. Amrita felt that her mother remained insecure about her close bond with her aunt, and this created further misunderstanding. In 2022, her mother passed away, which plunged her into a year-long depression. During this time, her aunt became her primary emotional support. They moved into a new apartment together, which brought some much-needed positivity and a sense of renewal.

Onset of Psoriasis

Approximately six months after her mother’s death, Amrita developed psoriasis. It began as small scales around her elbows and rapidly worsened, particularly in winter. She was already in a vulnerable emotional state, grieving deeply, carrying unresolved emotions, and battling depression. Her dermatologist noted that her elevated cortisol levels indicated significant stress, suggesting a strong psychosomatic link. Amrita recognised that this period had been one of the most emotionally exhausting phases of her life.

Spiritual Awakening and Self-Healing

During her recovery, Amrita turned toward spirituality. She found her Guru, whose guidance brought grounding, clarity, and healing into her life. She began practising Ho’oponopono, focusing particularly on self-forgiveness. She feels that her aunt still carries the trauma of losing her sister and sometimes perceives Amrita as dominating, much like her mother once did. This occasionally creates friction between them, even as Amrita seeks to honour her own need for personal space while caring for her aunt.

Session 2

November 1, 2025 ( 4 PM – 6.30 PM )

Stages 7-11

Theme:

As we reviewed her previous inner-child session—where fear and unresolved grief had emerged as underlying emotional contributors to her psoriasis—my client expressed a desire to go deeper and understand whether these patterns had roots beyond her current lifetime. Through our discussion, we identified two primary areas for exploration in the past Life Regression session.

1. To determine whether the origin of her psoriasis is connected to an unresolved past-life experience, and to facilitate healing .

2. To explore the strong sense of responsibility and the compelling emotional bond she feels toward her aunt, and to understand whether this dynamic stems from a past-life relationship.

I played the bell video, left her alone for the duration. We went through the checklist. I made sure she was comfortable, room temperature was ok, etc. We began with a prayer to the Divine Masters.

The session started with Dave Elman’s induction, followed by progressive relaxation. She was then taken deeper through Cosmic Awareness (Healing Light) and guided to the healing garden using the staircase visualisation.

Happy Childhood and Closures

In her initial memory, the client perceived herself as a young child attending a family picnic, with her grandmother also present. She appeared visibly pleased while recalling this scene. She then accessed another early memory of being with her family at a beach near Kolkata. Additionally, she was able to observe herself as a two-year-old child, with her father caring for her while her mother prepared food. She recalled her father looking at her with affection and admiring her as a “cute baby,” and she reported feeling a sense of joy and comfort during these recollections.She also recalled another early scene where she was lying on a cot with colourful animal hangings above her. She was alone in the moment and remembered feeling content and happy. She was then guided further back in time to her experience in the womb. She described feeling a comforting darkness and a gentle floating sensation, and she also mentioned being able to see her tiny arms.

Next, she was guided to meet her loved ones to address any unresolved emotions. In the final port, she first saw her mother, with whom she had a conflict, and then she saw her father. She later shared that the communication she had with them made her feel very light and relieved.

She was finally emerged from the session following the standard guidelines.

Session 3

November 2, 2025 (12 PM-2 PM)

The next day, the client arrived looking happy and relaxed.She reported feeling light after yesterday’s session. We discussed some points and then started our session with a prayer to the Divine Masters, followed by Dave Elman, Progressive Relaxation, Ball of Light, staircase and into the Garden. She was gently guided to the mountain cliff for reframing. All her painful memories were collected and placed into a large box, while all her future fears were placed into a smaller box. She then pushed both boxes down a cliff, symbolically letting go of them.

After this process, she was brought back to the healing garden and then gently emerged from the trance. We took a short break before continuing with the next part of the session.

Session 4

November 2,2025 (4 PM – 6.30 PM)

We again started with Dave Elman, Progressive relaxation, healing light, guided into the garden through the staircase, further guided into past life through the tunnel of light.

T: Allow yourself to go to a place where you live as I count from 3 to 1.

C: The person I loved.

T: What happened to her?

C: She was killed.

T: Hmm! Why was she killed?

C: She shouldn’t have been in love with me.

T: Why do you say so?

C: She was in a higher position, and I was just a farmer.

T: How old were you when that happened?

C: 20 or 21.

T: Who killed her?

C: Her own family……

T: Oh! as I count from 3 to1, allow yourself to go back in time to when she was alive.

T: Do you see her?

C: Yes…..

T: Look into her eyes and see if you recognise her in this life?

C: She is my aunt……

T: What do you do after she dies?

C: I promise I shall never marry and be by myself……

T: As I count from 1 to 3, allow yourself to move to the next significant moment in that life?

C: I think I have got leprosy….

T: How old were you then?

C: 50, I was helping people with leprosy……

C: Yes

T: Okay, take your time.

Long Pause

T: You have access to all the wisdom now that you are with your Higher Self.

T: Do you feel that your psoriasis is in any way connected to this life? Let it come into your awareness

C: Yes…. I was lonely in that life, and I feared loneliness in this life, too.

T: What were the lessons that life was trying to teach you?

C: I isolated myself after she died, and that loneliness became my whole life…Shutting myself away only created more suffering for me…

T: Yeah

C: In that life, I carried guilt, and because of that guilt, I chose to live alone.

T: Hmm

C: I also see that helping others was natural for me… but I never allowed anyone to help me.
And… the biggest lesson is that suffering in silence eventually shows up in the body. When I kept everything inside, my body manifested disease.

T: I understand. Is there anything you would like to say to your present self?

C: You don’t have to live with fear of losing someone—you are safe now. You are allowed to share your feelings and ask for support. You deserve companionship, love, and connection.
You are not alone anymore.

T: That is a beautiful message.

T: The client was finally emerged as per the guidelines.

Integration :

During our discussion, the client shared that she understood that the deep loneliness she felt in that lifetime had carried forward into this one, creating a fear of being left alone. She also realised that her psoriasis was acting as a reminder to release this old loneliness instead of holding it inside. She realised that she no longer needs to live with fear or isolation. She can allow support, express her feelings, and stay connected with the people who care for her. This helped her link the lessons from the past life to her healing in the present. She also understood that her strong connection to her aunt comes from a past life.

Follow-Up

What are you carrying over from this life of …to the present life?

May be by asking the questions on CO and giving suggestions to facilitate the resolutions would have made this more explicit and strong – resulting in pain level 0.

Beautiful. I am sure you would have injected the dose of PHS that she can carry and experience all this bliss whenever she wants to.

Dear Soma ji,

What a truly beautiful session you conducted. I felt as though you gently resolved two deep-rooted issues in just one session. Watching your work reminded me how important it is not to suffer in silence — that sometimes, the greatest strength is having the courage to reach out for help.

My heartfelt prayers are with your client for a smooth and speedy recovery, . May healing continue to unfold for them with grace.

I also had a small doubt about the dominant sense. Could you please guide me? Is it kinesthetic? And the visual senses follow after that, right?

Congratulations once again on your very first case. May this be the beginning of many more wonderful journeys of healing. Wishing you all the love and success ahead.

Thank you Venu Sir for your valuable feed regarding my Theme.I didn’t think of using the Junto Wheel for arriving at the Theme. I shall remember to use that in future.

@somasea It was really nice of you to have considered your old client’s issue to be explored further,that could lead to healing.
Loved reading ghtough ghr well recorded case history

@venu As per our discussion during our last forum call in regard to “Theme”,i had the thought …if theme mentioned here could be refined.
I remember being told that there should be only one theme.
What comes to my mind are
1.Grief since psoriasis developed after client’s mom passed on
2.Going deeper,it could also be insecurity (both during her stay in US and after parents passed on)
As per Junto wheel could the core emotion be

  1. Fear attached to feeling of insecurity
    or
    2.sadness attached to being lonely and later grief being an addon

I feel EPE could have been used here

@somasea Its good to see, the client got the answers for what she was seeking

very well done @somasea , when you write, it rivets me into reading every single word. Your writing carries the same magical spell that you do.

Future to what our blessed @hc2101 has noted, I only had this,

Was she prescribed any medications for the same? I hope in that case this might have been a contra-indicator or we need to get clearance from her psychiatrist.

Do kindly reply to @Monesh_Bathre ji’s questions line by line as there are some priceless learnings in it for all of us, along with @physioneha and Dr. @sarandha 's :folded_hands:
