Theme – Discontent
Name: Buddha
Date:05 Oct 2024
Vitals & Test Results: M, (VAK) 4/5/6, Eye roll 2/5, Focus 8/10
Client History:
Buddha is a successful professional and a dedicated father of two children. His primary concern centers on his teenage son, who has become distant and uncommunicative. Despite being talented, his son now appears unhappy, and withdrawn, and exhibits signs of lethargy. This shift in behavior, along with a general sense of discontent, worries Buddha as he recalls his son being more engaged and expressive in the past.
In his professional life, Buddha feels a growing sense of burden, even though he maintains a spiritual practice. Despite his significant skills and contributions at work, he feels underappreciated and overlooked, particularly in terms of promotions. This, along with the constant fear of potential layoffs, adds to his stress and weighs heavily on him. Buddha himself feels a sense of discontent in life rather feels burdened.
However, Buddha finds comfort in his 12-year-old daughter, who remains cheerful, engaged, and happy, offering a sense of balance in his otherwise challenging situation.

Step 3: Report and conclusion
After taking Buddha deeper into the trance, the session addressed his feelings of being trapped by societal expectations and his desire for freedom. By revisiting and reframing these past-life memories, Buddha began to recognize the parallels between his previous life and current life challenges, gaining deeper clarity and resolve.

Summary/Conclusion Of The Session Along With The Feedback Received From The Client Here.
Event Discontent over responsibilities
Subjective Interpretation The client associated joy with moments at their grandparents’ home but carried grief over their grandfather’s death. In a past life, they experienced regret from being tied to responsibilities and feeling restricted from pursuing personal freedom. Fear of parental authority and childhood anxieties resurfaced.
Conflict


Emotional pain over the loss of their grandfather and feelings of being bound by duties in a past life created inner tension. The client also faced fear stemming from a strict upbringing and unresolved childhood fears.
Decision Made To Resolve The client resolved to practice bravery and avoid negative self-talk, focusing on overcoming societal pressures and personal limitations to embrace a freer, more fulfilling life.
