“The entities are either unintegrated trauma, disowned shadow material, or an inner child thats waiting to be welcomed into the light.”
The more we heal, the less we perceive ghosts, demons, “negative vibes,” and malicious people in our outside world. ..funny how that works.
The battles we’re fighting on the outside, usually originate from within.
Often it is trauma stored in our bodies that is waiting to be cleared. When there’s a resonance with the external world (trigger), then it will surface.
When that message came to me in the middle of the night, I’d been thinking all week about treatment of developmental trauma and DID using various modalities including IFS therapy, energy work, plant medicines, and Breathwork.
Of course there are potential contraindications with every approach, and no two people are the same- but my hope is that we can expand our repertoire to facilitate healing in this area.
We all have different “aspects of self,” and even fractured parts that have had to split off to survive due to trauma. The work of welcoming all parts back home is one of reclamation, and although very challenging, is well worth it.
