Motivational Speaker to the Hispanic market was hampered by a
paralyzing fear of Public Speaking. Using him to demonstrate my
Past Life Therapy techniques, I took him back to a lifetime in
Ancient Rome which he described in vivid detail. When I asked
him what he did for a living he told me he was an “announcer” at
the Roman Coliseum. His job was to walk out to the middle of the
field with a scroll containing the day’s events, (lions eating
Christians, gladiators dismembering each other, etc.), open the
scroll and then read it to the assembled crowd.
One day, as he stood in front of 50,000 or so Roman
citizens, (including the Emperor and his court) he opened the scroll
and prepared to announce the day’s events. Lo and behold, his
colleagues had played a prank on him and switched scrolls,
handing him a blank one. He froze in embarrassment and shame
(and perhaps also in fear of a “thumbs down” from the Emperor).
This, of course, translated into a fear of public speaking in his
present life. After having uncovered this (and a bit of additional
therapy aimed at eradicating his phobia) he went on to follow his
dream and is now one of the Nation’s top Hispanic
Motivational/Personal Development Speakers.
And then there was the woman who wanted to know why she
always felt so responsible for her sister and had a compulsion to
rush to her side whenever she was sick. As a young adult this
really caused her a great deal of anguish when she went to the
East Coast to attend college. (Harvard, if I remember correctly). In
later years, it really caused a lot of problems and continually
disrupted her life. In the regression, she was a happy child living
during the early 1900s in Ireland who had an invalid sister. It was
her duty to stay with her sister and take care of her. Whenever she
wanted to go out to play, her sister would beg her not to leave.
She’d say things like, “Please don’t leave. Promise me you’ll
always be here.” Now here’s where it really gets interesting. She
wasn’t just her sister in that life but she was also her sister in this
life. Recognizing that fact allowed her to detach herself from the
old, no longer applicable promise.
