Rebirthing

Your Arrival

No one knows when consciousness actually enters the fetus, but in the field of hypnotherapy we have heard too many people in hypnosis talk of thinking and feeling within the womb to disregard it. Assuming that you had awareness in the womb, you mother's emotional state would have colored your emotional environment. If your mother felt frightened to have you, you would have sensed her fear. If you were unwanted, you would have sensed the rejection., This would have been the exact moment you began your survival strategies to ward off the unsurvivable rejection.

The process you are working with in the audio series is a powerful tool to recover your inner child. Giving yourself what you didn't originally receive is the key to changing your feelings about the event. Work with the process often, and remember that with each rebirth you are creating new memories and re-creating the world as a sage place to be. As you practice responding positively and being happy to see your child, you increase your feelings of self-worth. Your perceived value of yourself grows as you have a new relationship with yourself, and from the vantage point of your inner parents, you are a precious and rare gift! You need to practice seeing yourself from this vantage point until you realize and accept the truth of that

As you release your inner child's desperate need for acceptance, love, approval and validation from the person who originally withheld it, you will be free of the chase and the abuse. You will have self-assurance as you become a self-validating unit.
