A journey of meeting the inner child and meeting one’s wounds through awareness and understanding. A process designed to break the chain of past conditioning and transform anger and resentment into love and compassion.
A RETURN TO INNOCENCE
Pain can be passed on from generation to generation. Hurt people hurt people. No other relationship has such a lifelong influence on personality, behavior, and self-worth as the relationship with our parents. How can one free oneself from this legacy, especially when it is negative?
It is important to begin awakening to the truth that there is nothing inherently wrong with our being: it is our relationship with ourselves and with life that has been conditioned. This relationship is formed in early childhood and can be shaped by experiences, relationships, and dynamics that ultimately influence the way we perceive ourselves and the world. The Primal process is designed to move through and bring awareness to the different layers of emotional pain.
Ultimately, it is each person’s responsibility to recognize how they see themselves and experience their life, beyond the conditioning of the past. It therefore becomes essential to break the pattern through which past experiences continue to dictate the way one responds to life in the present. This requires revisiting and understanding what happened during childhood.
This process invites one to meet the inner child and one’s wounds with awareness and understanding. To recognize and break the conditioning that fuels anger and resentment, opening to the possibility of transforming them into love and compassion. To meet the past with acceptance and forgiveness and rediscover the meaning of unconditional love: the love that is already present within one’s essence, beyond all stories of pain and conditioning.
THE PROCESS
Supported by meditation and the creation of a safe space to feel, deeply listen, and explore one’s inner experience, the process offers the opportunity to deeply understand, release, and reconnect with the innocent, pure, and alive child that lives within each person and is waiting to be seen, embraced, and expressed.
The process guides participants on a journey back into childhood, to explore what happened and to understand the experiences of the inner child. What were the early decisions made in childhood in order to survive? Which of these later manifested in the personality, resulting in perceived limitations, self-destructive patterns, experiences of pain, addictions, and codependency issues that may be present in adult life?
This 7-day Primal process facilitates profound understanding and can open the way to healing, compassion, and forgiveness towards oneself and one’s parents. It is an opportunity to break the chain of conditioning, release memories of pain and patterns stored in the mind and body — physical, emotional, and energetic — and create the conditions for greater inner maturity, to return to innocence and live with greater freedom from the conditioning of the past.
Primal is a profoundly clarifying and effective healing process for the past, ultimately revealing the innocent truth of one’s ever-present loving essence, beyond all stories and conditioning.
“Whatever is repressed will have to be witnessed; whatever is buried inside will have to be faced. Wherever we have made ourselves blind, we will have to create eyes. We will have to undo the things we were taught to do as children and redo them in a totally different manner. We will have to return to that point in our childhood at which our energy was stolen. This is why all religiousness is nothing but the reclaiming of childhood.”
