Age - 34 yrs
**Occupation - Software Engineer **
Location - Mumbai, India

Therapist (me) – T
Client (Raj). – C
Place - His room on his personal bed at his parents place at Agra.

History / background of Raj:-

Raj was born into a middle-class Hindu family in Agra, where his parents, both educators, instilled the values of hard work and education. A bright student, he excelled in mathematics and science. His adventurous spirit led him to explore the outdoors with friends, but a school trip to Nainital at age ten triggered his first panic attack during a storm, marking the start of his anxiety around transportation.

Raj pursued a Computer Science degree at IIT Powai, thriving academically while facing increasing pressure, which heightened his anxiety. He opted for local internships to avoid flying, limiting his professional opportunities. After graduating, he became a software engineer at Google, but his fear of flying affected his self-esteem as he declined travel-related projects.

Raj has a supportive group of friends and has been in serious relationships, but his anxiety has hindered deeper connections, especially with his current girlfriend, Rupali, who wishes to travel with him. He often feels isolated, relying on personal cars or trains, which restricts his experiences. Although he enjoys reading and gaming, he longs for adventures he cannot fully embrace.

His fear of flying has led to increased anxiety and occasional depressive episodes, especially when he feels left out of travel experiences. Despite trying self-help techniques and workshops, he hasn’t found effective solutions. Frustrated with his limitations, he reached out for therapy to address his phobia during a vacation in Agra in September 2024.

Raj recognizes that his fear is rooted in deeper emotional experiences and is determined to overcome it. He seeks to improve his self-confidence, engage more fully with loved ones, and embrace opportunities that involve travel. He views this journey as a path to self-discovery and healing, aiming for a more fulfilling life.

Theme - Journey Through the Skies

T- (gently) Thank you for inviting me today, Raj. I know flying is a significant issue for you. Can you share more about your experiences with it?
C- (nervously) Sure, dee…as you know I’ve never been on a plane. Just the thought of it makes me anxious. I prefer road trips or trains.

T - That’s understandable Raj, phobias often have deeper roots. Are you open to exploring those roots through past life regression? (Smiles)
C - (hesitant) though I’ve heard and read a lot about it, but have never done anything like that. But if it helps, I’m willing to try.

T - Great. Just relax, and focus on your breath… Let’s begin…
( I guide him into a relaxed state )

[ Pre-briefing went very well and Raj responded well with most of the questions.]

[ I Played a soft trance music from my phone using his speakers in the background.]

To facilitate this session, Raj is guided into a relaxed state through deep breathing and progressive muscle relaxation…followed by Dave Elman – Deep relaxation - ball of light- and Staircase…

T - Now, Raj, imagine a staircase in front of you. With a count from 10 to 1, with each step down, you’ll feel 3 times more relaxed and open…and when you reach the bottom, I want you to tell me what you see…

C - (silence)

T - Raj, what can you see through this light?
C - not clear, but a landscape…

T - walk towards this landscape…tell me how is it?
C - It’s a beautiful place…

T - describe it for me…
C - (slowly) there are rolling hills… a vast sky…It feels peaceful, but there’s something… unsettling.

T - Can you go closer to the source of your discomfort?
C - (breathing deeply) I see a village… there are few people. They look… worried.

T - What are they worried about?
C - (voice trembling) There’s a big storm coming. The sky is dark, and… (pauses) there’s a ship… in the air?

T - A ship?..in air ?..Can you tell me more about it?
C - (intensely)… It’s not a ship like we know… it’s floating… and it crashed !.. I hear screams…

T - ( I let the emotions flow, )…
What happens next?
C - (shaky) I’m running… trying to find safety. The people around me… they’re panicking… I feel so helpless.

T - How old are you?
C - (whispers) I’m… I’m a boy, maybe 10

T - What’s your name?
C - (slowly) Arjun… Arjun.

T - ok, can you see what happens to you next?
C - (breathing heavily) I’m hiding in a cave. The noise is outside… it feels like the world is ending. I can’t see the sky… just darkness.

T - you don’t have to worry Raj…keep breathing deeply…this is just a memory…
What else do you feel?
C - (tears drooling) I am scared… I never want to go back outside. I can’t face the sky again.

T - ummm…it’s ok Raj…just keep breathing deeply…you are safe and protected…it’s just a memory…if you still feel fearful allow yourself to float above and witness
(I waited till Raj’s breathing became steadier.)

T - now with a count from 3 to 1 you will be in a significant moment in this lifetime… Allow yourself to be in this significant memory …
3…2…and 1…What do you see?
C - a small village, surrounded by hills…

T - look in front and read the name of this village written on the wall of the mountain… in front of you…
C- (eyes flickering)…

T - yes, go near the wall and read the name
C - hhh… द्वाराहाट … हां द्वाराहाट ही है

T - hmm…
C - there is a small mud house…I think it’s my house…it is very simple house…

C - my father…I call him bauji

T - how do your parents show their love for you?
C - giving me the best sweets and new clothes. They tell me stories about Diwali. I feel their warmth, and grateful. Maa loves me very much

T - hmm…that’s beautiful.

3…2…and 1…
what do you feel ?
what are you seeing?
C - (stressed )…a terrible storm, the sky turned black, बहुत बड़ा तूफान है…a tree has fallen on our house… मुझे बहुत डर लग रहा है …

T - you don’t have to worry as it is just a memory…if you want you may float above to see what happens next…you are protected and is very safe…
C -( silence)
The client took few minutes to calm down

T - it seems painful.
How did this experience affect you?
C - I am deeply fearful of storms and this unpredictable nature… feel anxious every time the sky looks ominous.

T - how old are you ?
C - about 14-15yrs

T - hmm…what else contributes to your fear?
C - uhh… hearing stories about flying machines…it fascinates me and I dream of flying one, but elders warn me about the dangers, which only adds to my anxiety.

T - this conflict between curiosity and fear must have been really challenging for you…
Is there any other significant event related to flying?
C - … silence

T - is there any significant memory related to flying ?..
C- (silence)

T - Raj…are you there with me ? ( IMR)
C - yea, there is a demonstration… a group has build a flying machine like…I am excited…then it crashed. I hear the chaos and screams… I feel so helpless…

T - Oh…it feels like this event has deepened your anxiety…
How did you cope after that?
C - I have withdrawn from everyone. I don’t play with friends anymore…I prefer to stay at home. I am fearful …it’s overwhelming

T - hmm…
as you grew older, how did your feelings evolve?
C - गांव बदल रहा है…मैं confused हूं… I want adventure, but I am paralyzed by my fear. I eventually vowed never to board any plane and will never go far from my house.

T - hmm…this is a powerful decision.
How did you feel about this choice later in life?
C - I have become a respected farmer गांव में, I always feel a sense of loss and often dream of flying but wake up in a panic

T - It seems your past has shaped your present fears profoundly…understanding these moments can help you unravel these patterns in your current life…
C - ummm…

T - now with a count from 3 to 1 we go in another significant moment in this time from your life that impacted you deeply …
3…2…and 1…
C - There is a terrible accident on my farm…and I have lost my son

T - that must have been incredibly painful. How did that loss affect you?
C - (voice trembling) It felt like my heart shattered. I have withdrawn from everything… friends, family, and even my work. The joy has simply gone out of my life.

T - How did you cope with that grief?
C - umm… buried myself in farming. I think if I keep myself busy, I can forget the trauma. But the weight of loss only grew heavier.

T - It sounds like you were trying to find solace in routine. Did that help at all?
C - Not really… I just feel more isolated… It isn’t until my grandchildren are born that I began to see a glimmer of light again.

T - That’s a significant shift…
Can you tell me more about how they changed things for you?
C - (smiling softly) Their laughter reminds me of my son… the joy started coming back, but I still hold onto the grief tightly.

T - How did you manage to navigate the struggle between joy and grief ?
C - (pauses) I began to talk to my son in my heart. I feel that he wanted me to live fully, and not just exist in memory.

T - That’s a beautiful connection. How did that realization affect your perspective on life?
C - I understood that holding onto grief is holding me back. I want to honor his memory by living, not just mourning.

T - How did you start to embody that new perspective?
C - I take my grandchildren on small adventures…picnics, walks in the nearby jungle… each moment felt like a tribute to my son.

T - That sounds healing. Did you notice any changes within yourself during these experiences?
C - Yes, I feel lighter. The heaviness is no more and I can smile again. It is like my son is encouraging me.

T - That’s so powerful. How does this relate to your current feelings of fear and regret?
C - I see now that fear can keep us from love and joy. My son’s spirit taught me to embrace life despite the pain.

T - That’s a profound lesson…
What do you think you want to explore next, building on this understanding?
C - find ways to merge these lessons from the past with my current desire for freedom.

T - That sounds like a valuable journey. We will work on ways to blend these experiences and create a path forward for sure…
C - yea…I feel like I’m beginning to understand my heart in a new way.

T - hmm…with a count from 5 to 1 you will go into another significant moment in this life that stands out…
5…4…3…2…and 1…
T - what do you see?
C - (reflecting) …it’s a time I almost left the village for a job in the city.

T - how old are you?
C - I am in my twenties…full of dreams.

T - hmm…
What happened that made you stay back in the village?
C - My father fell ill, and I felt obligated to stay back and help him with the farm… never got that chance to explore.

T - That’s a significant sacrifice. How did that decision impact your life afterwards?
C - (sighs) It felt like I lost a piece of myself. I often wondered what my life would have been like had I chosen differently.

T - How did those “what ifs” affect your happiness?
C - they haunted me. I felt trapped in my responsibilities, like I had missed my only chance at adventure.

T - Did that feeling of being trapped evolve over time?
C - mmm…as I grew older, I started to find small ways to explore… took long walks, visit neighboring villages …and…

T - How did that feel?
C - (smiling) It is freeing!..each step outside my routine feels like a victory against the fear that hold me back.

T - How does that relate to your current desire for freedom and growth?
C - I realize now that I can create my own adventures, no matter my age. I just have to push through the fear.

T - That’s a powerful insight… What are the steps you can take to embrace that mindset?
C - hmm…start planning small trips, maybe… even take a short journey to the nearby places… like my friend suggested.

T - That sounds like a wonderful plan…
How can I support you in taking these steps?
C - I’d like to discuss ways to manage my fears with you as they come up, so I can actually follow through.

T - wonderful!!..
ok k…now keep breathing deeply and allow yourself to relax… and with a count from 5 to 1 you will drift into the last day of this life as Arjun…
5…4…3…2…and 1…
Where are you?
C - umm… I’m sitting in my porch, the rising sun, the fields before me looks beautiful…

T -What are you feeling ?
C - it is a very peaceful morning… there is a sense of tranquility in the air, It feels warm, but there’s heaviness inside…

T - how old are you ?
C - umm…may be 68 or 69

T -what does this heaviness represent?
C - the weight of my regrets… I’ve lived my life tied to the ground, afraid of what’s out there.

T - hmmm…
C - I feel frail…

T - ok…what are you doing?
C - thanking the mother earth. my grandchildren are playing nearby. Their laughter is reminding me of my own childhood, but I feel so disconnected from that joy.

T - hmm… It sounds bittersweet…
What happens next?
C - one of my friend has come. we are talking about the village and how things are changing. he is suggesting to go to the nearby place

T - How do you feel about that suggestion?
C - a flicker of excitement, but I shut it down immediately coz I’ve promised myself I wouldn’t venture far… fear grips me.

T - fear can be powerful…
Do you remember any specific moment that deepened this fear?
C - Yea… that storm from my childhood that destroyed my home, and then, that disaster with the flying machine…

T - ( pause…)
What feelings arise when you think about this storm?
C - a sense of dread, like I need to retreat into safety. I tell myself it’s better to stay grounded.

T - What happens as you sit alone later in the day?
C - I reflect on everything… the adventures I never had… the joy of festivals…the dreams of flying. I feel a deep longing.

[something happened here…the client kept drifting and me just went with the flow…the whole experience became a blessing as if some higher energy has taken over…never experienced in such a way ]

T - how did the day go?
C - I feel a mix of comfort and sadness…I am reflecting on my choices and the adventures I never pursued… I feel a deep connection to my family…m gazing at the stars, wishing I could fly…

T - what changes in that moment of introspection?
C - fear has always held me back. I’ve let it define my life…

T - hmm… what happened after that?
C - Suddenly… I feel a severe pain in my heart …I am seeing flashes of my life… joyful memories and my regrets…
feeling warmth of my family, a sense of forgiveness washing over me…

Lets make a note of Dominant sense : K then A.

In my humble opinion we word it to associate it with an emotion. In this case,may be FEAR of skies/journey etc

Consider : What you experience/comes to your awareness to be in coherence with dominant sense K.

Apt for a K client. Lets wait for establishing the engram and do anchoring before working with any other sense.

May be we could use some para phrasing here.

May be we could frame suggestion to be in sync with the emotions being experienced by the client.

We could have used Arjun in place of Raj . Would have assisted in anchoring.

Experiencing the past life trauma he is definitely not OK. Let us rephrase/paraphrase and add empathy to our suggestion.

Consider : Having gone back in time to the life time of Arjun you are experiencing…I understand it. …and then we proceed with the suggestion.

Good approach KMF to classic.

:ok_hand: :ok_hand:

We intend to keep our suggestions indirect and open ended.

here perhaps we ended up trying to mind read

and got this response, as leading suggestions may or may not result in the output we desire.

The above framing is more apt for History Taking stage.

Thinking !! Recom to be avoidable.

Apt corelation.

Paraphrasing and empathy.

Very pertinent lesson for us all .
When we strongly feel …its our intuition/guides/masters trying to connect with us and lead on to the path of universal wisdom.

Amazing experience. Blessed session.

Profound !!

Open ended suggestions pl.

Goose bumps !!

We intend to lead in way that the resolutions and learnings come to the client from within.

Consider : Paraphrase …and What could have been the reason for experiencing this Sadness.

The paramount lesson.

Well conducted.

I must say the experience of LBL states have brought in tremendous insights and valuable lessons for us all.

Best Regards,

Monesh

Read the session.
The person has been restricting his movement in his life, avoiding chances of professional growth and deepening of personal relationships, all owing to this fear.

Tracing it to the lifetime of Arjun and going through the realization how it had filled his life with regrets was the first great step. This brought upon the realization as to why he was afraid and also choices he made owing to fear.

In the next lifetime as the Indian pilot at Longewala, the fear materialized again but the client after reflecting is able to make a distinction between fear of flying in general and fear of losing control resulting in a tragic incident. That for me is the next big step. Challenges will be there but one should not stop at that.

The fear translates into an awareness of the sacrifice he made and that radiates as hope that he will be able to transcend that fear,

looking forward to his first journey through the skies simply tearing apart his fears. Wishing him all the best.

Thank you, Suranjana, for your thorough review and thoughtful consideration of the case.

In fact, a few days back my client had called up to share his experience of flying from Agra to Mumbai, which was his first-ever air travel. He reported feeling extremely anxious and fearful throughout the journey, experiencing significant distress and constant discomfort. He frequently requested water during the flight and tightly gripped the hand of the person seated beside him. At one point, he inquired about medical assistance, disclosing his fear of flying. He found some relief only after landing at Mumbai airport, where his friends greeted him to provide emotional support. While the fear of flying remains, he expressed a strong sense of accomplishment for having completed the journey.
