B.R.T.T. Part 2: The Origin & The Lineage
From Trust to Connection
Today I underwent another B.R.T.T. session, a natural and logical follow-up to the last one. Where the previous session focused on my knee and the theme of trust, a new layer presented itself soon after. It started seemingly practical. During a conversation with my coach at the gym, we discussed reducing food intake to lose those last stubborn kilos around the belly. Something that should be simple; it’s not due to a lack of discipline or perseverance, as I have amply proven in other areas. But during that conversation, I felt a charge that went much deeper than calories or willpower.
The Origin: The Scar
My intuition led me straight back to my very first days on earth. There was a defect in the connection between my stomach and intestines; food couldn’t pass through. I had to undergo emergency surgery for pyloric stenosis. This is no small thing; for a newborn, this is a primal trauma. The scar I have carried on my belly all my life, I always took for granted – I didn’t know any better. But now I realize that the charge originated there, in that first week of life. The break in the connection with my belly, with being nourished, with receiving. The flow was blocked, both physically and energetically.
The Synchronicity: Fascia Therapy
As things in my life often coincide when the time is right, I also started experiencing cramping abdominal muscles. I decided to visit a Fascia Therapist. From the first moment, I knew I was in the right place. Without prior knowledge, the therapist went straight to that scar. He recognized it and immediately identified the narrowing as the cause – something my mother later confirmed. What he said hit the core: “The connection here is literally not good.” It was the physical confirmation of what I already felt energetically.
The Session: Comfort and Letting Go
This afternoon I arrived at Antoinette’s, fresh from the treatment on my scar in the morning. We meditated and set the intention: to restore the connection with my belly, and thereby with myself. I felt something dark, something heavy. My logical brain, just like the previous times, finds it a bit awkward at first. “Will something really happen?” But my body took over. I started to tremble and move. The first image was heartbreakingly beautiful: I saw myself as a tiny baby, just after the surgery. Scared and shocked. But now I could comfort him. I could tell him it would be okay. I could show him where we are now.
The Ancestors: Thanking and Letting Go
Then came a second wave, spasmodic and rhythmic. I was surrounded by my ancestors. The feeling was intense but loving: I felt a deep gratitude – without them, I wouldn’t be here. I could thank them for the life they passed on. But at the same time, I felt it was time to let go of their patterns. I no longer have to follow their path; I can leave them behind with love and go my own way. The physical movement became intense, almost as if I wouldn’t get out of it. But unlike before, I was now in control. I could say: “Up to here and no further.” Soaked in sweat, breathing heavily, I felt the space opening up.
The Future: The Villa on the Hill
After the storm came the silence, and a final, softer wave. I saw myself as a baby again, but now flawless. Without a scar, laughing happily, ready for adventure. And then I saw the future. My older self, floating above a beautiful villa on the edge of a hill, looking out over the sea. On the terrace sat a large family – my family, children, grandchildren. I looked at it with a deep sense of satisfaction. My mission was accomplished. I could say goodbye in peace.
Conclusion
I am once again deeply impressed. It is magical that I get to experience this and that my body and mind work together like this. There is so much more going on beneath the surface than we perceive in our daily reality. I am grateful that I have the strength to face these confrontations. The fruits I reap – that indescribable feeling of happiness and liberation afterwards – are more than worth it.
