This process enables you to follow the chain of reenactments of an original trauma all the way back to its inception at the original cause of the imprint. Before beginning, get in touch with 'the Folks' as outlined here.

1. Experience a feeling that is other than 'okay' or 'good.'

2. Locate the feeling in your body.

3. Feeling into the feeling and looking into it, imagine that a child you once were is feeling this feeling. Allow an image of the child to appear in your mind's eye.

4. Imagine that the child is like a character in a movie, and you are the director. Determine the approximate age and the location (indoors/outdoors) of the child.

5. With your loving, resourceful healer self as the director, stop action and walk onto the set and be there with the child. Bring the Folks along with you.

6. Get close to the child and read the child's feelings. Feel what the child is feeling, and locate the feeling(s) in your own body.

7. Holding on to these feelings and looking into them, imagine a light colored blank screen. While feeling the feelings and looking at the blank screen, ask the Folks to help your unconscious mind follow the feelings back to the scene of the original trauma. You can say to yourself, "My deep unconscious memory has record of everything that's ever happened in Creation. The unconscious follows these feelings back to where they were first experienced in the transpersonal realm."

8. When something appears on the screen, become the director of the movie and do whatever is necessary to make the image more clear and understandable. (Pull the camera back, more light, better focus, etc.)

9. Ask the Folks, "What can you tell me about this part of the Mother?" And feel-listen for their response.

10. When you have an understanding about what happened when this part was hurt, ask the Folks, "What do you suggest I do here by way of healing?" Feel-listen to their response, and do what is suggested.

11. Loving Spirit will be there with acceptance and appreciation for this part, but will not push in any way. He probably will also be apologetic about the role of his denial in causing the Mother pain as he begins to feel into her pain. (As part of the healing it is usually helpful to have the Mother hold you while you hold the traumatized part of her. Loving Spirit can then surround you all as he opens to feeling the pain his denials caused in this part of the Mother.)

12. When redoing the scene, it's usually helpful to take the position of the traumatized part, identifying with her, just as you do with the child when you're healing at the personal level.

13. Continue inner dialogue with the Folks until it's clear that you have done all you can at this time for the part. (For instance, you can ask, "Folks, is there anything else we can do here now by way of healing?") When done, thank the Folks for their help.

14. Come forward in time to the inner child you first discovered. Find out from the child what kind of intervention, if any, your should make on their behalf, and do so. Or simply hold the child close to you and allow the child to feel your love, strength and acceptance.

15. Take the position of the child (go into the child's body) and experience how it feels to have someone who really knows you... being here for you with love and acceptance, and the kind of strength and resources capable of bringing real help.

16. Spend as much time with each other as you wish, child or past self and future self... two bodies, yet one whole complete human person.

17. Return with the child and the previously lost part of Mother in your heart.
