Theme - Fear of failure holding her back from doing anything

Session 1 (Stages 1-8) on 16/09/24 for 4 hours

History taking:-
SP grew up in a middle-class family in Thrissur, Kerala, as the eldest child. Her childhood was filled with happiness, surrounded by her parents and two younger brothers. She was particularly attached to her father and took on a sense of responsibility from a young age. Her school and college days were joyful, enriched by a wide and strong circle of friends who became her biggest support system.

As an adult, SP is married, and with two children, a son and a daughter. However, her marriage has been fraught with problems, though she manages to navigate through them. She has strong likes and dislikes, particularly when it comes to food, and she has survived cancer, a battle that left lingering effects such as headaches, anxiety, and sleeplessness.

SP also faces difficulties in her professional life, largely stemming from her inability to say “No” and her tendency to please people, which often puts her under undue pressure. She thrives in vibrant, lively environments and is uncomfortable with silence or calmness. She always strives to be at the forefront of everything, eager to take on tasks and do things for others. She wishes to be self-dependent. Yet, there is a constant hesitation/fear of failure that holds her back from fully exploring her potential—a feeling that pulls her back just when she’s about to take a step forward.

This hesitation also manifests in her fear of darkness and her discomfort with being alone. She dislikes sleeping alone and even finds it unsettling to close her eyes for long periods when no one is around. These fears and anxieties, combined with her reluctance to assert herself, create a complex web of challenges that she navigates daily.

Session 2 (Stages 9-11) on 17/09/24 for 2 hours

Induction started with Dave Elman, Progressive Relaxation, Ball of light, Garden of Peace and proceeded with Happy Moments. She had happy memories from childhood- moments with a childhood friend which brought her tears of joy. Saw a chubby, little boy in the Garden of Peace but could not identify him.

Session 3 (Stage 12) on 25/09/24 for 2.5 hours

Started with Dave Elman, Progressive Relaxation, Ball of light, Garden of Peace and proceeded through Affect bridge which was the “Fear of failure holding her back from doing anything” and suggested to go back to the time where it first started.

Took her back through the affect bridge and burned it. Emerged her out of the session gradually.
After the session the client seemed satisfied and content with her experience.

I too got the answer to my earlier confusion that why no significant relations were showing up in Jian’s lifetime. Because that had some significance!
“Jian was managing himself alone in that lifetime and he was happy doing so. He was able to manage everything and achieve his goals with his willpower and enthusiasm. If he, being alone, could do all those things, why can’t I, with all these supportive people around me.” This was the understanding shared by the client. She became convinced that she has the power within her to achieve anything on her own because she had already done it in a previous lifetime as Jian. It was a very empowering lesson for my client.

Post-session Review:-
After one week SP reported that she feels more empowered now, and it is as if a barrier has been lifted from her mind. She is able to venture into things without any hesitation as she knows that she can achieve anything with her willpower. This has given her the courage to try new things.

SP wants to have further sessions to deal with her other themes. Looking forward to those.

Dear Soumya,

Very well for bringing the life lessons to the client.

My learnings are as follow for your consideration pl,

Expected to need deliberate induction and deepening.

May need a reconsideration here as total of VAK is 12 and not 15.

Good response potential.

Emotional/psychological state before onset?

Lets paraphrase and try an open ended suggestion.
Consider : Having gone back in time you are experiencing 5 years old child looking at the sea. Wearing a frock with chubby face who could this little child be?

Consider paraphrasing.

Profound lesson.

My best wishes to you and the client.

Best Regards,

Monesh
