Time-Line Words

We all have a past path & a future path. One is filled with treasures waiting to be gleaned, the other waiting to receive the new plantings. Elizabeth Bohorquez RN, C.Ht

Who wouldn't like to adventure in a time-machine? Most of us love the thought of going back in time or forward into the future. In the practice of Interactive Self-Hypnosis we experience this daily. It's known as working your time-line.

Even if you don't practice self-hypnosis as part of your creative life, you do work on your time-line. You just don't do this purposefully. Indeed, it is much better to use this powerful tool well, for if not, you may find yourself hanging around in negative trash while inhaling the toxic fumes. Instead, you could be transforming the negative trash into powerful, positive fertilizer to expand growth for one or several of your current or future goals.

If you doubt that you hang out on your time-line, start to pay attention to your thoughts as they speed through your mind. Just think about the last few hours inner activity. Did you have any thoughts about something that happened in the past? Could you feel/sense the emotions that were connected to those happenings? Did you have any thoughts about something in the future, either something you are planning or something you don't want to happen? Again, could you feel/sense the emotions connected to those happenings?

OK.....this is time-line work. These thoughts came on automatic pilot. Most likely you experienced emotions or physical sensations while you were inner-exploring these thoughts. It's important to know that these emotions, or chemical experiences, were etching those thought programs into your subconscious mind....they were becoming your goals or strengthening already present ones.

Because you weren't working purposefully with your time-line, you may have programmed your mind for goals or happenings that you don't want. Even when interacting with past memories or experiences, you will actually etch them further into your mind IF you don't choose to release them in the moment they are playing. It's so important to pay attention to your thought genres & your attitudes or emotional states. They can either play havoc OR help you enormously.

REGRESSION POINTERS

In my work as an RN, medical, sports & self-development hypnotherapist, I don't get into past-life regression. Quite honestly, I don't even discuss it. Everyone has their own thoughts about this & since it doesn't have to do with my clinical work or writing, I like to leave it to those who are in that field. The regression work that I practice with my clients & within my own life experiences, has to do with the time going forward from birth. On the future time-line, we go forward to the end of life.

Here are some of the areas I like to explore in regression. You can also practice doing the same by relaxing very deeply & spending some quality time with your younger Selves...

1. Going back to the day of your birth. Seeing/sensing your parents holding you. Pay attention to how young they appear, perhaps immature. Introducing your adult-self to them & noticing how amazed they are at your growth & maturity. This is also the time when you take possession the infant & begin your journey of self-responsibility.

2. Visiting your infant & early-childhood selves. Noticing how you were parented in these very early years & then stepping in & taking responsibility, perhaps improving or updating your early care. In self-hypnosis the mind accepts the last suggestion presented & so this is an opportunity to have a very early fresh start. You can also pay attention to your achievements in this area of your time-line. Notice how you learned to turn over, to sit, to stand, to walk, to eat, to speak, to play, to toilet train, etc. You can begin to collect or glean your successes right here. The attached affirmation could be, I know how to be successful.

3. Middle childhood & teen years. Perhaps you would like to make some editing changes here. Pay attention to parenting, school experiences, siblings & other relationships. Collect successes & re-edit learning-failure experiences to benefit you. Place some powerful affirmations here as well. An example, As I grow, I learn. Every experience is a growing & learning experience.

4. Early adult years. - Pay attention to your Selves during these years. Notice that you can interview each of them. Ask them what they need. Bring them gifts from their future. Notice that they have successes to share with you. Glean these. Wash off any learning-failure experiences, leaving the inner success-core jewels intact. Affirmation - There is success in every learning-failure. I know how to clean it & access it.

5. Adult years. Practice entering all kinds of experiences. Look for the successes & learning-failures. Tend to them. Interview your Selves. Ask questions & bring some gifts. Notice how they are opened to taking you deeper into the experiences, allowing you to remember from your current adult-self. Knowing that you have come for the inner success-cores.

6. Re-editing the past. Take the position of writer, producer, director of your past & re-edit or re-stage it to your liking. Manage emotions both positive & negative. You can do this in your mind's eye OR you can do some automatic writing/journaling. This is my favorite method & I'm always surprised at some of the gifts that leave the end of my pen.

In the next blog entry I'll do some future-pacing with you.
