The first step in the therapy technique I offer with Holistic Origin is gathering all the relevant information about our family clan. This will give us a better overview when analyzing the physical symptoms caused by emotional conflicts.
The Genosociogram (family tree), which the therapist designs with the information collected from the family clan, is a representation that gives structure and image to the events experienced by those people in our family environment. There, you can see their ranks regarding family, gender, relationships, and offspring. In addition, it will provide us with essential information: illnesses or events will indicate how they lived and how those people dealt with the different events in their lives. Each person unconsciously connects with those experiences. Since the unconscious is timeless, we will feel that what we experience belongs to the present time. Sometimes, the origin of the problem lies in past lives.
Let us keep in mind that we live with two types of unconscious: the personal (everything that the person has repressed or forgotten and that comprises 97% of what we do, feel, and think) and the collective (made up of values and beliefs common to all the individuals that make up the group). The family unconscious is our collective unconscious limited only to the family clan and not the social or cultural collective, which means the values and symbols the clan members transmit will later be part of our unconscious. We must consider it a chain arranged integrally, with its links connected. These links are difficult to separate, as is separating ourselves from that family unconscious. That set of values, beliefs, myths, traumatic events, etc., will be our conditioning factors later. Can we break that chain? In a certain way, we cannot eliminate what makes us unique, but we can heal some wounds left open for the good of ourselves and our clan and our mental and emotional health.
Why are these beliefs transmitted to the rest of the group?
Transmission ensures our survival. Imagine our most remote ancestors, who stayed united with their group to avoid being attacked or dying of hunger (the cave dweller would be our actor in the story). They had to create standard rules and values to work together and care for each other. The same happens in the present, except that the unconscious is still archaic.
Through this transmission, the clan members ensure their survival and are forced to remain in a group, accepting and integrating the beliefs imposed (consciously or unconsciously) to maintain group stability.
Here is a summary of why it is so essential that we use generational transmission as a basis for Restorative Biological Decoding and subsequently to perform regressive hypnosis:
Irreplaceable law of the unconscious: guarantee survival. The record is helpful so we do not expose ourselves to the same traumatic situation again.
The disease is not inherited but the trauma a person experiences when they are sick. How you face a situation with an emotional burden similar to that our ancestors experienced will determine whether or not you develop the disease. As I mentioned before, the beliefs and values transmitted through the family unconscious and those we learn throughout life will condition how we confront the events that have occurred.
The mandates dictated by the family unconsciously resolve the inherited trauma.
Secrets always hold an unresolved trauma.
The family unconsciously only accepts what is predictable.
Remember that pending trauma puts the stability of the clan at risk, and that is why it will seek resolution by manifesting itself in one way or another through symptoms that develop when we expose ourselves to traumatic events with the same emotional burden.
Studying the genosociogram and the transgenerational link can help resolve your conflicts and/or pending traumas. With this information, we will not try to unblock emotions; we will provide knowledge and understanding of what we are experiencing. The approach is primarily informative, but you will be surprised by how many problems or illnesses have their origin in your family history.
Some people are not looking to resolve pending traumas or help an illness heal; they simply want to know more about their history throughout the three preceding generations considered in the study.
