BRIEF HISTORY: (related to theme only)
The client’s mother and father fell in love and ran away to another city to get married. Mother’s father( C’s maternal grandfather) was very rich and C’s father was expecting that after getting married grandfather will accept them and they might get financial benefits from him but he didn’t except that relationship and that was the point when C’s father changed his behavior and turned abusive and alcoholic. C was born to his mother when she was very young, about 17 years and since C’s father changed completely after not getting any financial benefit from grandfather, mother became very close to C and accepted her husband to be not the same person as before. To earn the livelihood both mother and father started working and C have to stay at home all alone(7 yo). There was a caretaker but C couldn’t express himself. When C was 12 year old he was sent to Surat city to have better education to his maternal’s house. Even here he was treated bad and treated as a servant by his aunt and her two daughters. He was humiliated by them, was made fun of and had no one to talk to, so after a few months he decided not to stay here anymore.
At the age of 13, he was sent to boarding school in another state. Situation were the same there as well. He was physically abused by an elder student in the boarding school. He studied in this school for 3 years.
After 3 years he returned to his mother.
When his father turned very abusive…beating him and his mother, he asked his mother to leave him. His mother had made all the arrangements and as C was young he was sent to his uncle’s house until they complete the procedure for seperation. When he came back again he found that father asked for forgiveness and the mother had forgave him. After a few days the father became abusive again.
When C and his mother were planning to visit Surat to meet grandfather, grandfather had already made all the arrangements for divorce and have gave an offer to father to take money and sign on papers. The father agreed. They both were in Surat when father called and told them not to come back again. C along with his mother was living at his maternal’s but were treated very badly, C insisted to live anywhere else even if it were a small place. Mother wasn’t working at that point of time so he angrily told her that she had 13 years of experience why she is not doing anything why are they dependent on such people. Soon she started earning and they moved out of the maternal’s and rented a very small place.
He was 17-18 when he thought that now he should also start working on his own and moved to Mumbai and rented a place.
C is been married to his close friend. G(C’s wife) is very supportive and insisted C to start his own venture. Although C wanted to pursue his profession in different field he thought to try it(for some other profession than he wished ), it was a huge success and he made a name in that specific industry. There was a time when he was preparing to be working in the field that he liked. He prepared for 2 years but it was called off at the last stage. Wants to pursue for the profession he is interested but is scared to start from scratch leaving a well settled business.
When asked how he felt about his childhood C told “it’s okay. I don’t feel much. And I don’t think I can express much.” Wife is someone with whom he can talk about anything. When asked about his relation with his mother, he said “: I am close with her but its like a wall between us. Also I feel that I have responsibilities and I am running from it.” C is not in contact with his father.
C describes himself as non-religious person. Although he feels some connection to lord Shiva, loves mountains and wishes to live in mountains and doesn’t like cities at all.
[Note: there were no emotions while taking the history. C was sharing everything very casually and the body language also indicated that he was very comfortable. Repression of emotions maybe?]
THEME
When asked about the expectation from PLRT, C said he just wish to experience. I had asked to make a list beforehand, C had made a list of about 22 points. I explained that we needed to arrive at theme to proceed further, after a while he told me that “I think the main reason of all this is suppression of emotions”
Session 2
Check-list
Induction- three happy memories, closures
DISCUSSION WITH CLIENT AFTER EMERGING OUT:
The conscious thoughts kept interfering and C would snap out. The thoughts were so rapid and trivial that it was hard to know what exactly he was thinking and wasn’t able to stop either. He would listen to the starting sentence of my suggestion and all of the sudden rapid constant thoughts would start again and he had to remind himself to listen to me again and until he could he would miss what I said. Happy memories could see.
[Adding a link to some guidance and suggestions by Amarantians that can be helpful in such situation
How to proceed with client who keeps having conscious thoughts during regression?]
In closures the first time he saw so many faces and chose one. He saw the same person when the next two time as well but wasn’t able to communicate any of the time.
When brought back to garden and rest, I asked if he can find any guide. C saw a tea stall in garden and saw a person wearing kurta and having long beard inside the tea stall even before I said anything and thought him as his guide. He couldn’t communicate with him either. C have never seen or known any person looking like him.
(I asked if he wanted to do just relaxation one more time and he agreed. This time I thought not to take IMR because I noticed that whenever I asked to confirm the client would become more stiff and irritated. I decided to take him to the mountain, meet a guide to help him reach the top of mountain, then to a small house in mountain, meet people living there, the view from the window of that house, sitting on the safe place at the top of mountain, and then gradually emerging out. C didn’t opened eyes after emerging. I called him few times but he didn’t wake up. I let him sleep for a while and then after 20 mins I tried again. After he woke up he asked me, ‘did I sleep?’. I asked him was the last thing he remembered. It was going up to the mountain…he fell asleep afterwards.)
[Learning for me: one of the importance of using IMR]
Day 2, 6th September,2023 (Session 3 & 4, 5.5 hours approx.)
Session 3
PRE-DISCUSSIONS
C had very good sleep of about 11-11.5 hours and had dream after about 3-4 years. He told me that he realized he doesn’t remember many of the events and it was only after I asked about things he would remember. C also told me about another physical abuse when he was in his early 20’s. As the conscious thought kept interfering the other day I asked him to let himself experience whatever comes up. Also told that it might be difficult and hurtful to experience everything again but those are just the past memories and it can help him out to break the patterns. And let me know whenever conscious mind interferes again.
Started with dave elman and progressive relaxation.
Garden----reframing----back to garden—emerge
DISCUSSIONS AFTER EMERGING:
Was able to do everything that was suggested. When suggested to feel inside the womb, C heard some voices. Voices felt like someone was arguing and fighting. Also had some realization imagining the cord cutting. It was much better than the previous day. The thoughts weren’t as rapid as before. Had some flashes of brothel.
[Discussing with fellow Atlanteans, we decided to take it slowly… focusing more on relaxing rather than exploring past-lives thus, I only guided for reframing and emerged. Even for session 4, I intended to do inner-child healing and more relaxation. ]
Session 4:
Suggested to let me know whenever he see any flashes.

My head is exploding…
As client wanted to come out, I had to emerge.
[maybe I could have used this golden state to relax him further? But I also thought, should we continue when client explicitly ask to emerge?]
Back to garden—emerged
POST-DISCUSSIONS:
C told he couldn’t recognize anyone from that life to be related to him in this life (could see two faces… father and brother). Couldn’t see every faces properly. The headache was intense during the end of session (head was aching even in the morning when we started the day, but it increased).
The common thing between PL and current is, C had abusive father in both life. while history taking C told he doesn’t like being around with men and have more empathy towards women and always wants the best for them. C said this might be the reason he doesn’t like around men much and is very encouraging with the betterment of women.
Later C told that whenever he paints, without thinking prior what to paint… many a times he ends up making eyes and he realized this eyes were like menaka’s.
Further sessions to be conducted whenever client can give uninterrupted time.
