The Spiritual Solution for [PTSD] Wounded, Troubled, Tortured Souls & those who suffer from Past Memories There are many components to The Spiritual Solution. They are made up of actions and faith ‘’Faith without Works is Dead’’. Firstly, and most importantly is the acceptance that there is a God and it isn’t us or our therapist. Secondly this God cannot be of our own understanding, we can have no control over Him in any way. in 12 step programs around the world, one is allowed to create their own understanding of God, but sadly, this allows the addict to continue to be in control, which is a big problem in achieving full recovery. No! For any of us to recover completely we need to, we must surrender completely to a power completely outside of ourselves; that has the capabilities to enable us to experience the miracle of the healing and release from our past; to know peace of mind and freedom from the past. The Bible gives clear direction on how this goal is possible. In Scripture it talks about those diagnosed with PTSD and how they are treated is all wrong. In this following verse it tells us that those who suffer and survive a past event, are not the problem, they should not be seen as the problem, nor should they be treated for the problem. The Truth is they are Wounded Warrior Survivors that fought through, to stand here today before us. They are not the problem, how they survived should not be seen as the problem, they should not suffer the pain and hardship that should be the fare of their tormentors. It is not right to make an innocent person pay a fine; justice is perverted when good people are punished. [Good News Translation proverb 17:26] Wounded Warrior Survivors that suffer a Troubled or Tortured Soul are innocent of the crime, they were in fact the victims, not the perpetrators. Justice is perverted when they are made to suffer the past event over and over again as a punishment for surviving such an experience. The Insanity of the idea that clients who suffered past trauma events should ever go back willingly to face it, knowing they cannot change the past; any of it; that they are completely powerless to do so; that inviting their event into the present is madness; that anyone who suggests this as the way to healing, is part of the problem and not part of the solution. It is complete Insanity. An innocent person, is innocent and shouldn’t face a life time sentence of suffering their traumatic event over and over again, with some mistaken belief that this is healthy or for their benefit. Those who promote such solutions are part of the problem, making a living off the pain and suffering of the client. This is why it is time to take a different path, a path of a Spiritual Solution, that fills a person with self-worth, hope and purpose that The Light at the end of the tunnel isn't an oncoming train, but a Host of Angels coming to Cast Out their Demons. The Faith required is twofold. Firstly, putting our faith in The Teachings of Christ Yeshua and secondly, accepting that we cannot be in two places at once, and therefore we are in fact carrying a memory of an event that happened to a past aspect of us and in fact didn't happen to us. This goal, when reached, allows each of us to embrace The Teachings of Christ Yeshua to give this burden back to it’s rightful owner. It’s like we are laying foundations to a new life. We surrender completely to The Truth that all our best efforts, at dealing with past trauma memories [ptsd] have failed to cure or heal us. It is time to think outside of the box of human solutions and embrace the concept: What happened is in the past! It’s a part of history! It cannot be altered here in the present! Yet it still has power! It eats away at me! Causes me nightmares and flashbacks! It’s too much! I can’t take much more of this! I accept that I have to look at this from a different perspective and a Spiritual Solution which allows me to give away this burden is literally a GODSEND. Please feel free to make use of my Victory Principle that will enable you to create a platform for the works necessary by you to achieve the release of your burden to its rightful owner. Having come from such a place I can take you through the process but if you have someone you trust to work with, feel free to introduce them to this principle and the rest of this solution. find a pastor or minister who can teach you about the teachings of christ and how to invite him into your life and into your much needed healing event. i understand that there are folks who suffered at the hands of clergy etc.. and might find this very challenging, at this point i must argue not to let one or three bad apples put you off the goodness and wellness to be found there. Still, if this is an issue and you work with a professional, talk to your trusted person about inviting a Christian therapist to take part in your healing event. The bottom line has always to be; how much do each of us want to have a normal life, to waken up free of nightmares and flashbacks, to find old triggers no longer unsettle you and that you can finally live one day at a time. i can tell you that this works, its simple but its not easy. if you are one those folks who have been in therapy for longer than you care to remember, then this will be most challenging for you. For too long your identity can get lost in the brokenness, the victimhood & martyrdom, suddenly you have to reinvent yourself and cannot use this identity as part of your armor for life; for many this is very challenging, I get that, it took me over 50 years to break free of events that happened to me in my earlier years. This is The First Foundation Stone and the most important to achieve a life of joy, hope and purpose, self-worth and self-acceptance. I am still OC and socially anxious. I allow myself to be as I am today. Today seeing myself more of a private person. No longer people pleasing or wearing masks. No longer trying to fit in. No longer needing to be liked by all. Today it’s ok to be who I am today. In my next post, I will talk about The Second Foundation Stone: Boundaries

That ‘voice in our heads’ that Causes us So Much Trouble…. The Truth Is, It isn't even Ours!

You know that moment when you have this thought to say or do something, only for it to backfire terribly & you then find yourself exasperatedly trying to work out what possessed you to say or do that……The sad truth is that voice in our heads isn’t us!

Throughout this series of blogs, on my YouTube channel, Tierney Therapy and in my private practice, I suggest we are in fact Spiritual Immortal Beings in there Physical Mortal bodies.

When we Spiritual Immortal Beings speak aloud, that is our voice, we speak and we are heard.

But these Physical Mortal Forms know they only have this one lifetime compared to our immortality and as such; wants to experience life in every moment; knowing eventually their time will be over. The voice doesn’t care if the experience is good or bad, right or wrong, the goal to continuous experiences.

This is the voice of the EGO!

Right now as you read this, there will be a voice in your head and it wont be agreeing with what I write. It will feel threatened by what you read, and you will hear the voice saying things like:

“Who is this guy?”

“What a load of rubbish!”

“Don’t read anymore, turn it off!”

“I’ve got better things to do with my time”

“Now this guy is going just too far”

“Balderdash…I've never heard such dribble”

Just sit quietly and listen to the voice. It wont be able to sit quietly, it can’t it will be compelled to intervene, to stop you from taking control from it.

At this point I want to extend a thank you to an old mentor of mine who introduced me to a book by Michael Singer called The Untethered Soul.

On my journey of healing recovery from my own past demons, I embraced many teachers and holistic practices and fellowships.

Most recently, I was introduced to the fellowship of ACA[ACOA], part of me wishes this introduction had arrived here 30/40 years ago, but know, i wasn’t ready back then and wouldn’t be the man I am today, the husband, dad, brother and therapist that has been my journey.

This voice is commonly referred to in ACA, as the voice of The Critical Parent inside all of us.

Beware, this voice will attempt to fool you, it will take both sides in an argument, it will deny responsibility for the actions it suggested. literally it will drive you mad!

Walking about town and seeing people talking to themselves, i can’t help but smile, in the realization that others have recognized this voice for what it is and can hold a conversation with it.

There of course are others who have arguments and verbal fights with it, and even allow it to have the final say in conflicts and decision making; then blame themselves for the outcome.

Michael Singer, suggests one should imagine having a mannequin on the couch beside them; see this voice as coming from this object; In a flash, at best, you would move as far away from this thing that was coming out with all forms of criticism and bad advice, at worst, you would throw it out the window.

yet, we allow this voice to dictate to us all day long, we don't run away or reject the voice, we give it honor and attention. we continually allow it to undermine us repeatedly, although experience has clearly shown us, we should not even give it the time of the day.

if you truly wish to see the voice in your head in action try mindful meditating. so many of us, unknowingly think we are terrible at meditation, when the truth is we are more than capable. the problem is the voice of the ego see you wasting previous time doing nothing, when it wants to to be doing anything, and it doesn’t care what that something is, as long as it is not inactivity.

We are Spiritual Immortal Beings and the food of the soul is peace of mind; contentment; stillness; self-acceptance; self-worth; forgiveness; gratitude; love; hope and purpose.

The Physical Mortal Being’s food of the ego is confrontation; activity; anxiety; depression; anger; rage; blame; shame; hate; judging; & there are many more.

So please know, we are more than capable of responding rather than reacting; sitting still rather than a cat on a hot tin roof; being a part of the solution rather than being the problem or part of it; having friendships rather than isolation; living life rather than enduring it; living in these 24 hours rather than suffering the past that we are powerless over and causes our lives to be unmanageable.

By now, you are probably aware of that voice literally screaming in your ear, attempting to deflect you from considering this truth.

Embrace this truth and we become a new creation.

We change without even having to change, it just happens, we, sometimes quickly sometimes slowly stop falling into the trap of letting the voice of the ego, the voice in our heads, dictate to us.

There are those who suffer from schizophrenia or psychosis; I do not intend to belittle their conditions or diagnosis, I only hope this offers some form of relief and a different perspective; especially that they are not alone or different; that every human being has this voice in their heads.

THERE IS A VOICE IN OUR HEADS AND IT ISN’T US!

The Bible is either a Book of Truths or a Book of  Lies……….it can’t be both!

www.tierneytherapy.com

Wouldn’t it be a good idea to find out whether it is Truth or Lies; we are talking about Eternity; not just for ourselves, but also for those we care about; especially our children and future descendants.

Most, if not all of us, especially those of us who have experienced a Past Trauma Event, Suffer a Soul Destroying Loss of Hope, Joy and Purpose. Carrying the baggage of a past aspect of ourselves; the Unmanageability and Powerlessness of dealing with this burden, causes us to live with self doubt and questioning the why of it all?

We learn the best efforts of finding a worldly solution haven’t amounted to much; enduring this existence as brokenness and the belief that God doesn’t care; that He let us experience our Past Trauma Event , we are stuck between a rock and a hard places.

Being Strong Survivors; committed to finding a solution through therapy, medication, hospitalization and institutionalization; its time to be as openminded and willing to embrace the concept of a Spiritual Solution.

My preaching about The Teachings of Christ Yeshua and how The Bible gives clear direction and instruction how you can claim your miracle and cast out your demons; can sound to the closed-minded broken one; as wild claims to be rejected. I get that, it was only two years ago; walking The Path of The Prodigal Son, myself, I was deriding this kind of talk myself as poppycock.

But, then I experienced my greatest spiritual awakening; meeting an elderly Greek Scholar, a Learned Pastor; who was willing to help me find my way to heal my long suffering soul; I learned that The Bible was and still is a book of Truth.

That there was a formula to claim one’s own miracle, which for me was to cast out my demons: my past trauma memories, my unknown PTS, the crippling anxiety, depression & disassociation; that caused my life at times to be too horrible to endure.

This kind man knew I needed to find my way back and so he suggested to get my hands on a Bible and most importantly a Halley’s Bible Handbook. I didn’t know that there had been studies conducted to discredit The Bible, and this handbook showed where Archeologist and Historians learned about kingdoms and peoples that the history books hadn’t recorded; but The Bible had and when the directions were followed they found the graveyards of these peoples & kingdoms and their demise to be the truth.

Check out The Fall of Jericho, where The British School of Archeology mounted an expedition to this location, based on the guidance of The Bible and found it to be true as described therein.

I share this with you all, in case like me, you were contempt prior to investigation; don’t you deserve to know the truth?

That you can claim your miracle and like me, cast out your demons. Now, I can’t heal the lame or the blind, nor raise the dead, but accepting The Bible as a book of truth; armed with that little faith I garnished through this learning; achieved my goal of casting out my demons and when working  with others, teach them how to claim that same miracle.

The Past Trauma Memory

The Nightmares and flashbacks

the PTS

Surely, it is worth the effort; to be freed of all of these demons; to be able to live in the present no longer triggered by the past?

What do we have to lose; already most if not all of us; have tried every man-made solution including drugs, alcohol, dysfunctional and self harming behaviors, running away, isolating?

Wouldn’t it be a welcome relief, to let of all these different broken learned behaviors and to no longer endure life, but to live it fully?

what do we have to lose; I'm not suggesting you need join a religion or attend a church; that might come later & then again it might not; all that is required is to enter into a personal relationship with Jehovah Rapha[ the healer], through His Son, Christ Yeshua [the miracle worker] activating The Holy Spirit [to heal our souls, minds and hearts from the inside out].

You are in my prayers to reach the point where you give God a chance. the miracles, the rewards, the benefits the abundance awaiting you is beyond compare.

Don’t take my word for it, read The Bible and compare it to this handbook and find out for yourself whether it is a Book of Truth or Lies.

This is a personal awakening journey with the ultimate goal of freedom from the past and peace of mind, its time to let go of all old beliefs and prejudices; becoming willing and openminded to the truth; casting out contempt prior to investigation.

Thank you for joining me on this journey,

There is a solution to Past Trauma Memory and PTS & it is a Spiritual One;  may you find Him now.

Who is this guy?…. Why is He doing this…?

www.tierneytherapy.com

In this post, you will learn, we are all empowered to heal ourselves; to cast out out our own demons; to let go of the past; live in the present and the awakening awareness that we are spiritual beings; suffering from a Spiritual Malady; having the tools and Life Force Energy, within each of us to process, heal and release any Past Trauma Memory in a safe and non-intrusive manner.

I am not a licensed or clinical professional; a medical doctor or nurse; a mental health professional, doctor or nurse; a pastor, minister, theologian, priest or missionary; a social worker; life coach or cognitive therapist.

I am a prodigal son; a human being who suffered more than one trauma event leading to a feeling of brokenness expressed through PTS, anxiety, depression, disassociation,  addiction, self-harm, self-destructive behaviors, shame, guilt and victimhood.

Having endured most of my life in The Valley of the Shadow of Death, knowing  moments of insanity; bouts of craziness; amidst long stretches of sanity, thus  realizing this wasn’t mental illness; but an attack on My Soul; robbing me of Hope, Joy and Purpose.

This was a Revelation, which led me to the truth that this burden I was carrying like the weight of the world on my shoulders, at times like my demons pressing down on my chest causing me to panic and unable to breathe; that this was not mine. I was carrying this for a past aspect of me; a person who I once was; who I cared for and didn’t want them to feel totally abandoned. My thinking was by carrying and suffering this for them, this was; in some way way;  an Act of Love.

But the truth was this was never my job, to suffer the pains of another. Learning the Powerlessness facing me, trying to fix, save or mend my past versions of me was an Impossible Task and by trying to do this during my daily life; this was causing My Life to Fall Apart and become Unmanageable.

I learned by attempting to heal this impossible task of healing another, I was going to go completely insane and suffer a mental breakdown, long term mental illness.

Identifying with this soul destroying feeling, that this blackness was in the very center of my being ,at my core; I looked at every religion and spiritual practice for my Spiritual Solution to heal the hole in my soul.

Having been reared in a Roman Catholic home ; disillusioned by it all and religion in general; because of my trauma events; i believed there wasn’t a God and if there was, He didn’t care about little old me.

But committed to finding a way out of The Valley of The Shadow of Death; full of contempt prior to investigation; challenging  myself to read anything and everything on Spiritual healing, finally found myself drawn to The Bible and The Teachings of Christ Yeshua.

Learning that He could cast out demons and were I to invite Him into the healing event; He would cast out my demons, setting aside all my old beliefs and prejudices and with the little, minute faith that I didn't know I possessed; I experienced My Miracle.

My Demons of pts, nightmares & flashbacks, depression, anxiety, self -destructive behaviors, shame, & guilt left me; leaving me with Peace of Mind & Self Acceptance.

This is an inside job, I reiterate again and again, the only person on this earth who could heal me of my past was me; being willing to give it back to it’s rightful owner; through a Spiritual Solution that was The Teachings of Christ Yeshua.

I always looked for an easier softer way, one where I would remain in control, having terrible trust issues with all authority figures; so, for me, the revelation that by surrendering, by admitting being out of my depth, powerless, burnt -out and no energy left; only  wanting freedom from this soul destroying baggage; caused me to turn to this spiritual solution; and to coin a phrase

The rest is history………….No! Literally! When I used The Victory Principle, all this burden, all this baggage, the nightmares and flashbacks, they truly became my history; thus allowing me to focus all my energy on today ,no longer triggered by the past.

I pray this helps anyone who suffers from a Past Trauma Memory and PTS to know, we can heal ,we can get better, be normal again, living normal lives, no longer triggered by the baggage of another.

What would it feel like for you; the next time you see your therapist and find you can do the work outlined to improve your daily life, because you are no longer triggered by the past?

how good would that feel for you?

Would that prize be worthy of you turning back off The Path of The Prodigal Son; Accepting Your Miracle of actually Casting out Your Own Demons, in a safe and non-intrusive manner.

Please take the time to add a yes if this resonates with you.

Please feel free to share this with your family, friends and community

They are No Longer My Story, But They are My History….

I am only alive in the present; having no control over my future or how it will present itself or even whether I'll be there. The same goes for my past lives; I am present today, so all the past aspects of me were just that, past aspects and what happened in the past happened to them, becoming their stories; making them my history.

My history is a recollection of memories of events; challenges; successes & failures;  joys & hope;  losses &wins; and many other facets. But they are still only memories and as mentioned again and again in previous posts; memories of events that happened to other people. It doesn’t change the fact that they are not our burden to carry, simply because they are younger versions on us, either we experienced the event or we didn’t.

I am only in existence in the present moment.

I cant be ‘I was’ and I cant be ‘I will be’. It’s just not humanly possible!

we cannot be in two places at once.

His-story is about what happened to him, in my past, my history,

My story is about what is happening to me in my present

The Bible tells me quite clearly, my domain is in the present ‘I AM’ and this can involve making plans for the future. but the past is death to me, and the only power recorded in man’s history who had power over death being Christ Yeshua, tells me when we are looking at Past Trauma Memory and PTS, we must look at a spiritual solution where we give back our burden to the rightful owner.

This is probably one of my shortest blog postings yet. By now, I hope you are close to ,if not actually on the same page as me with regard to the concept that past trauma memory was never our burden to carry into the present causing our lives to become unmanageable because we haven’t got the ability ort power to heal another's pain.

Being a part of our past, it can no longer be diagnosed as a mental illness, but now a spiritual malady that can be processed healed and released in a safe and non-intrusive manner.

It’s time for each of us to claim our promised miracle.

Keep It Simple Stupid.. The Victory Principle……….It’s Not Rocket Science!

If I am here today, and only today; then the past didn't happen to me but to a past aspect of me. Therefore, I have been experiencing Sympathy Pains of a Past Trauma Memory and PTSD  for someone else; I am powerless to heal it for them; it interferes in my life today, making it unmanageable. This truth means, its time to give it back willingly to its rightful owner!

www.tierneytherapy.com

The Victory Principle is not rocket science, anyone can use it. The Healing Event is 55 minutes long and involves the client giving back their Past Trauma Memory to its rightful owner in a safe and non-intrusive manner.

This practice is conducted during Covid online .

The cost of this healing event is 90 euro and the client receives a full follow up session as well. www.tierneytherapy.com

This is not a continuous care program.

Clients need as little as one and no more than 5 session to clear away a past trauma memory.

Clients can choose to return for more sessions but it is not necessary, the goal of the Victory Principle is to free the client from their past trauma memory and the subsequent nightmares and flashbacks, enabling each client to work with their therapists to get control of their lives without the past intruding and sabotaging their lives anymore.

I can tell you this principle works, but the truth is really how bad do you want it.

There are a number of questions we need to review to better gauge if this is for us:

Is what I am doing up until now freeing me of my Past Trauma Memory and PTSD?

Am I sick and tired of feeling sick and tired of life?

Am I sick and tired of forever feeling broken?

Am I ready to try something different something old, something new?

Have I had enough of therapy and medication, hospitalizations and institutions?

I know I'm not the problem, wouldn’t it be nice for once to target the cause, the Past Trauma Memory, and not the effect, me and my PTSD.

Am I willing to set aside all old beliefs and prejudices about God; and be open to claiming my own Miracle and Casting Out My Own Demons; once and for all.

This is a simple healing event but its not easy, depending on how long one has been in the system or how much this condition has become a part of their identity, the idea of giving all this up and that life, is frightening. I know this.

To have lived one’s life in a certain way and their whole identity has become wrapped up in it and suddenly, tell that person; we can change all that in one moment; that is a challenging concept. Not for the faint hearted, I say that because I know that those of us who have suffered trauma and are still alive today, doing their best to live, are Warriors! The strength such persons show; just by showing up day after day; hoping that tomorrow will be different; I want to tell them; that Tomorrow is Here.
