Conception

"Conception is the root event in this life and generates life-long patterns.

Problems at the time of conception can come from our mother or father and their feelings about something in their lives or their situation.

Similarly, all feelings that our parents experienced during pregnancy, and any emotion experienced by anyone close to them (usually grandparents or siblings), have an indirect influence on us.

Our emotional experiences of these events provide aspects of our belief system. They are what we have come to work out and heal.

These issues, which include the general emotional atmosphere surrounding us and our parents at conception and birth, affect us profoundly.

Traumas at these times, if not healed, dictate the pattern of our life. Within the microcosm of conception and birth, the major patterns of our life can show themselves and be transformed."
