IOPT and Identity Development Sessions
Healing Trauma, Finding Our Authentic ‘I’ and
Freeing Ourselves to Live From Our Own “Will’.
Did you know that.....
We all have an essential ‘I’. This is the part of us that knows that we exist wholly and absolutely, and that guides us through life according to our Essential I, Inherent Wisdom and ‘Will’. But most of us don’t have a sense of our ‘I’ because when we were young, it’s development got interrupted by early trauma. Early trauma splits our ‘I’ into parts so that we can keep on living without getting lost and stuck in the trauma experience. Splitting is a normal and essential life saving capacity that we are all wired to do it. Any and all emotional, mental or physical chronic patterns can be an expression of splitting.
IOPT and Identity Development sessions allow us to meet and embrace these split off parts in a deeply loving and understanding way. It’s like meeting an old friend that got lost so far back that you can’t even remember who they are or what happened to them or when. This work enables us to see them again, listen to their story and help them let go of the trauma burden that they have been holding for so long. When this happens, another piece of us comes back home and our essential ‘I’ becomes more whole.
When we live from our essential ‘I’ (Identity), we create a life that is centered around our own experience. We are our own orientation. We no longer get lost in what is outside of us. Rather we settle into our authentic, true self. It is from there that we are free to live our life from an integrated, creative and expansive relationship with ourselves. And it is from this place that our life becomes an integrated expression os our authentic self on the inside and how we meet and engage with the world that is outside of us. Joy, love and a deep sense of I Exist becomes the central experience of what it means to be ALIVE.
ID Sessions not only enable us to access the wounds that we carry from our own life and biography, but those that we have ‘Inherited’ and carry from our ancestral system; and especially those that we pass onto our children.
This subject of ‘Inherited Systemic Influences’ is at the core of Epigenetic's, one of the new sciences that is exploring the inter-generational patterns and wounds that get passed down from one generation to another. This inherited legacy can continue to play out in younger generations for years until someone explores them so they can be released.
Identity Development and IOPT Sessions explore these inherited energies that ‘Live’ inside of us now in present time. It is through our own systems today that we can gain direct access to them and release them so they can heal.
