Q & A Wednesday “One of my daughters is scared to go anywhere in our house alone” –

the basement, upstairs, the bathroom, her room. She basically has to be in the same room as us all the time. When I ask her why, she says it’s because of a bad dream she had. Is this just her being a scaredy-cat, or is there more to it than that?

This is an excellent question and one that I take very serious. I work a lot with children; I empathize with their sensitive to things unseen by the adult eye and their “remembering” of times before they arrived in the now.

I am finding that there is an increase in children who are both energetically powerful who have the ability to see dimensionally. What I mean by that is that they are able to see energy beings of people who have passed and find themselves “earth bound”. They are also able to see a multitude of “other energies” as well. Often the challenge for children who see dimensionally is that they have a hard time differentiating between “real people” and “etheric people”. To young children ages 0-12ish everyone “looks real” and therefore it can all be overwhelming and frightening at times.

Children of this age often don’t have the language or the words to explain what it is they are “seeing” and what it is they are “feeling”. Heck, most adult don’t either, nor are many open to “believing” their children or their adults family and friends who never lost their “sight” of things unseen. Even though there is a growing awareness of such things many people are still rather skeptical and quick to judge others who have the ability to see what they cannot.

I work with children in a layer system to pinpoint the root cause of their “fear and anxiety”. Often when parents call me with concerns of their child being afraid of things they have no “rational reason” for being afraid I explain the following;

1. Sometimes children see and feel energies that most adults cannot. The reason for this is that we are all born with the ability to see and feel “energy frequencies” that are not of the density of the “physical” world. Many people lose this ability around the age of 13 when hormones kick in and socializing becomes the highlight of their lives. Others lose the ability due to the demands of their parents and cultural beliefs. While others like myself grow up with parents/parent who cultivate and nurture their natural sight and awareness keep their abilities gain an understanding of how to thrive in a multi-dimensional world.

Sometimes our homes and land hold pre-existing energies from the previous owners which can become a challenge for sensitive children and adults. When this is the case I recommend a Space Clearing and Blessing Ceremony to clear and protect the home and family of the non-beneficial energies that are triggering fear within the child and disrupting the household.

If the child continues to be “fearful” or “have bad dreams” after the Space Clearing and Blessing Ceremony the following may be a contributing factor.

I remember as a little girl being terrified of going to sleep at night. Not that I was afraid of the dark. I wasn’t. The second I laid my head on my pillow I would hear marching, when I closed my eyes I would seek dust in the air and laced-up booted feet march on a dusty road. When I opened my eyes I saw the faces of two men looking at me, their features etched into the paint of the wall. These “impressions” stayed with me well into my teens. I can still remember them as if it were yesterday. Well into my twenties I was terrified of being alone and petrified of my family dying horrible deaths.

I later, many years ago during my spiritual mentorship I was given the following explanation in a meditation.

2. We carry into this lifetime the cellular memory imprints from our previous lifetimes. Often these memories are the ones that triggered the most powerful emotional impact that creates a resonance that bleeds through into this time frame. It is these cellular memory imprints that create the fears and anxieties of things we “consciously” have no rational explanations of  and that we have not had the experience in this life time to explain our fear.

It is through personal clearings that many of my clients have found a more calm and peaceful way of being here now.

Perhaps your daughter is experiencing the emotional triggers of these “cellular memories imprint” which is why she “has to be in the same room as you all the time”.

Our Soul is infinite it holds all our memories, our joys and our sorrows.

Our Soul is timeless; our Body is time sensitive and feels the emotional memories of the Soul.

Our Spirit is the breath of God the Universe within us. It is the source that binds Body and Soul.

It could be that your daughter doesn’t have the language to explain what it is she is “seeing and feeling”. Perhaps she associates her experience with a dream as the word “dream” is the closest thing she has to express herself to you.

Blessings to you and yours.
