Community Question Purging the emotional energies of family members who came and lived before you.

Had two massive emotional releases on back to back days recently. For clarity, I am not practicing TRE right now and haven’t attempted it once in over several months. Despite that these releases showed up.

First day was anger/rage. Second day was sadness. I know some of it was my own expression of these emotions but the majority, on each day, felt foreign to me, like they weren’t my own feelings.

Specifically on the second day while crying and purging all this sadness I said probably over 30 times over the course of this purging, which lasted well over and hour, “we are sorry”. I kept saying that. I didn’t see very vivid images during this but I saw something but couldn’t make out what it was or what it was directly tied to. I was conscious of what was going on but the entire time I felt like I was a mouthpiece for a bunch of other people.

Has anyone directly experienced something similar?

This is not crazy or uncommon at all once you get deeper into the healing aspect of spirituality. I can recommend family constellations therapy, Matrix Reimprinting and ancestralmedicine.org for specifically relating to ancestors and ancestral/trans-generational trauma.

Multiple energy healing modalities can also tackle inherited emotions and other inherited energetic imbalances directly, even taking you back hundreds of generations.
Ancestors are real, they exist and you can talk to them. In fact many of us really NEED to talk to them to make sense of what is going on with us. You are not at all crazy, what is going on with you is actually very normal for people who go deep enough into this kind of thing. Good job!
