WHY REGRESSION THERAPY?

No comment

This is an introductory documentary about an alternative therapeutic approach that is really effective but attracts controversy. It is about time to dissolve, the clouds that faded this mode of therapy.

In this production prominent figures of the field like Morris Netherton, Roger Woolger, Hans TenDam, Trisha Caetano, and Marion Boon are interviewed and share their experience with us about the methods, the effects, and the ways they go about.

If you want to learn not only why but how, when and with whom you should choose regression therapy instead of other approaches, then this is the film to see…

WHY REGRESSION THERAPY? was produced by the European Association for Regression Therapy (now called the Earth Association for Regression Therapy).

Executive Producer: Athanasios Komianos
Music by Resat Guner and Kevin Mac Leod
Narration by Dave Graham
Written and directed by Ulf Parczyk, esopsych.de & upsignum.de

Hans Ten Dam at Work: 2 DVD Set

No comment

Reviewed by: Bonnie Cripe, Ph.D., L.M.S.W.

(as included in the The Journal of Regression Therapy Volume ΧVIII,  Spring 2008)

Hans Ten Dam presented a workshop in Britain and recorded four of the sessions to review for teaching purposes. Before each session Hans discussed the therapeutic techniques he was using and issues to be mindful of during the session. He also talked about general concepts such as trauma versus a hangover, generational healing and inner child work. During each session he noted different aspects to be aware of and put some of his comments on the screen in written form, which I found very helpful since his accent was sometimes difficult for me to decipher.

Before the first session Hans discussed the difference between “trauma” and a “hangover.” A trauma is a specific event while a hangover is not based on a single incident. A hangover is something that has been there for a long continuous time and creates low energy. He discussed the concept of a postulate as being when a conclusion or decision enters into a person’s belief system and that belief creates a hangover effect in the person’s life. He gave a case example to illustrate this concept which I found to be very helpful.

Hans also discussed the concept of Open Exploration. “Open exploration” is to discover the issue to work on rather than focusing on a predetermined issue. You can have the person take an inventory of his/her fears or focus on something else. For example: I’m afraid of…My body is…My eyes are…This creates a verbal bridge.

The Dead by John Huston

No comment

Reviewed by Edward N. Reynolds, Ph.D.

(as included in the The Journal of Regression Therapy Volume III, No. 1, Spring 1988)

Where do we find the sources of most of life’s drama and struggle, in this life or in past lifetimes? Most past-life researchers and therapists would say that in understanding the depths of our being, past lives are more real than ordinary daily existence.

In an odd way, this is also the position taken by director John Huston in The Dead, the final film of his career. Huston completed this work only shortly before his death a few months ago.

Based on a brilliant short story by James Joyce, and published originally as part of a collection called Dubliners, the story is set in Dublin in 1904. The setting is a Twelfth Night party held at the home of two elderly sisters and their nearly middle-aged niece, a piano teacher. The guests include an assortment of people who are active in the artistic, cultural, and political life of Dublin. Situated quietly among the party-goers are nephew Gabriel (a newspaperman) and his wife Gretta played by Anjelica Huston.
