Where is the Trauma?

Vienna

After my intense experience in South America being robbed in an armed robbery and threatened to be killed by a shaman on the top of a mountain in the middle of a jungle, I felt like it’s time to experience some classical western trauma therapy. I continued not to be fully relaxed when I was walking on the street at night.

So, I was searching for a therapist who has spots available on short notice and knows Brainspotting and EMDR – two techniques that supposedly are the best for post traumatic stress syndrome.

I quickly found someone…

During the first session I told her what has happened…

The way she looked at me she thought I’m either making up this whole story or that I live a surreal life.

In the first session we worked with the armed robbery.

She found something but eventually said „The trauma is not very active anymore!“

Hmm…

Still, we did another session on it to make sure, if there wasn’t anything hidden in a deeper layer.

Nothing…

The third session we went into the scene with the shaman who wanted to kill Tien and me.

There was nothing…

One more session to go deeper…

Still, nothing…

„The traumas are not active any longer! You must have solved them before somehow or you are the most relaxed person I know.“

I vividly remembered the moment at Pyramid Festival – when I had my breakthrough on E-Clip.

I always say, dancing with the sun on psytrance is one of the most potent trauma therapies that I know and this experience underlines it once more.

Yeah, psytrance… it’s a strong medicine when you know how to use it as one!

So that trauma therapy ended and I was grateful for some other very valuable insights the therapist shared with me.

Also, I realized, that there is still another much deeper trauma to work on… but that’s for another time to do… for now, I need to become one with the sun of the Algarve again…
