Client history :
Harish had a happy childhood, enjoyed visiting temples with his father every Thursday, and was very studious. His father retired Army professional, and his mother is a housewife. He has been looked up by everyone in the family since childhood. He didn’t have much connection with his brother.
Mother is quite a strict, authoritative person. She always has conflict with most of the relations, especially with her husband’s side.
Due to a few financial mismanagements, the client’s family sold most of their ancestral lands.
During his college days at the age of 22 years, his best friend Guna Sekhar’s, unexpected death, affected him so much.
He had a conflict with his father and didn’t speak with him for a few years.
At the age of 29, He lost his father to a heart attack and fortunately, he had a chance to speak with him before his death on the phone.
He had a love marriage with a Christian girl after so many Challenges.
He mentioned that the best thing that happened in his life is marriage and he also feels that every kid’s birth brought so much abundance to his family.
Harish feels that he gets angry very inappropriately and everyone around mentions that he is a spoiler of the happy moment. He needs to suppress so much anger and it triggers even for slightest disagreement with anyone. He is a strong believer in Hindutva and sometimes he is involved in religious conflict discussions among his family members or friends.
Harish also feels first thing he wants to work on this anger management and find the root cause of it. He wants to make the change within himself.

I slowly got the client to emerge the client as per the process.
Integration:
- Harish, in his warrior lifetime, enjoyed immense privilege and earned acclaim as a formidable warrior.
- Despite his pride in safeguarding his tribe by taking lives on the battlefield, he struggles with profound remorse for the sins he committed through these actions.
- The suppressed emotion stemming from his conflicted feelings manifests in this current lifetime as unresolved anger.
- In another lifetime as a humble farmer, Harish faced the harsh reality of underprivileged circumstances and met his end for the sake of his true love.
- Experiencing helplessness and resentment towards the more privileged, these suppressed emotions resurface in the present lifetime as unexplained and misdirected anger.
Closures:
- In one lifetime, Harish enjoyed the status of a highly privileged warrior, while in another, he succumbed as an underprivileged farmer.
- From being immensely powerful and proud in one lifetime to experiencing timidity and helplessness in another, Harish’s varied lifetimes illustrate the diverse spectrum of human existence.
- This serves as an explanation that as souls, we undergo an infinite of life experiences.
- Harish’s journey of forgiveness, extending both to himself as a warrior and to those who took his life as a farmer, played a crucial role in healing the suppressed emotions stored psychosomatically in his body, allowing the release of pent-up anger.
- Unable to marry his lover in a past lifetime, Harish faced numerous struggles and challenges, but in this lifetime, he eventually succeeded in marrying her.
- After the above comparative discussion about both lifetimes, suggested a few anger management tips like identifying triggers causing the anger and thinking about the ways to either avoid them or view the situation differently.
- Suggested replacing the negative thinking patterns like overgeneralizing, and jumping into conclusions to positive thinking patterns.
- Suggested deep breathing techniques.
Post discussion:
- Pain level reduced from 10 to 2.
- The client’s anger levels noticeably decreased post-session, and he now comprehends the underlying cause of his anger.
- Remarkably, he shared that the recent loss of India in the WCC didn’t have any impact on him. In contrast to his past self, he would have taken such a defeat personally, engaging in extensive discussions about the match with anger.
- Since the session, he has experienced a significant shift, realizing that external events no longer exert the same influence on his emotional state.
Thankyou.
