Releasing Emotional Trauma

Written by Patricia Zimmerman

Trauma Release Technique

1. Set Your Intention
   Begin by clearly stating your intention:
   “I release everything from past lives, present life, and future lives—returning to the root wherever it began—that is causing [insert issue].”

2. Hand Placement

   • Place one hand across the forehead.

   • Place the other hand on the back of the skull, at the base of the occipital bone (nape of the neck).

3. Allow Release

   • Hold your hands in place for a few minutes while bringing up memories of the trauma to release.

   • The head may move in circles, rock back and forth, tilt left or right, or express emotions such as crying or exasperation. This is natural. Allow the body to move and release as it needs.

4. Breathe Through It

   • Continue until you feel a deep, cleansing breath, signaling that a release has occurred.

5. Duration and Repetition

   • Limit each session to 3–5 minutes. Trauma can have multiple layers, like peeling an onion, so release gently.

   • Repeat the process at a later time, allowing the body to assimilate the previous release before continuing.

This method supports the simultaneous release of trauma from both the physical body and the spirit body, helping restore balance and ease.
