In working with clients, I always begin by clarifying the intention of the session, such as to get to the root of a particular problem or to access a particular ability. If the client is focused on that intention, refusing to waste energy wondering if it is possible but simply intending to accomplish the goal, then this is the most powerful framework. I personally also like to place this intention within the context of prayer, because I believe that engaging the higher power makes the whole process more effective and soulful.

Beyond intention, there is no conscious control. However, we all have an inner guidance system. you discover in the inner realm exactly what you are ready for. If there is a traumatic memory buried, you will remember it only when you are strong enough and only if you need to remember in order to grow.

As for the fear that it will destroy your family, you are in control of what you do with anything you discover. Supposing you do remember some kind of trauma or abuse by a parent, we don’t stop there, leaving you with the pain of that memory. Our work together continues, leading you to create healing for the child that experienced the hurt. Once that healing is accomplished, true forgiveness becomes possible. You actually may end up closer to the parent because previously there was a subconscious chasm in place. Just because you don’t know on a conscious level doesn’t mean you don’t know what happened.
