In normal memory processing, the voluntary recollection of past events in one’s life is done by accessing our normal memory bank. If every experience in our life was good then the act of remembering would be effortless and without incidence. Yet every event in our life is not good.

Everyone carries memories of deep hurt from life events from our childhood, adolescents or adulthood to this day.

Painful events can be the result of incidences of:
• experiencing belittlement
• being bullied
• abandonment
• car accidents
• combat experiences
• depression
• divorce
• harassment
• isolation
• job loss
• loss of a love one
• relationship breaks-ups
• re-locating
• rejection
• terror (scared)
• trauma
• violence
• abuse

Any one of these experiences can produce a painful emotional scar and symbolically steal a part of the human soul. The memory from these experiences lay mentally inactive for many years.

Many years of research into how the human brain processes memory, has proven that traumatic memory is treated in a different manner by the brain than non-traumatic memory. Traumatic memory is treated differently because of the painful emotion that the brain was unable to deal with at that time. At some point the brain sends the memory back into consciousness for closure. This action by the brain is called a “flashback”.

There are four different types of flashbacks that can surface:
• visual image
• organ or body experience
• unexplained intense emotion
• sound

Flashbacks do not occur to hurt or injure the individual, but to make closure. Yet traumatic flashbacks are painful and seem real. In the past, suffers of flashbacks were told that he/she would have to “grin and bear it”, “just get over it”, deal with it through many years of therapy, “medicate them away” or lastly “it was something they would have to live with”.

These misunderstandings create feelings of:
• confusion
• depression
• guilt
• anger
• shame
• dysfunction

Now there is a way out. You can learn a life skill that will empower your brain to take back order and achieve closure. That new life skill is called “Rapid Reduction Technique” or RRT for short. Rapid Reduction Technique is a specially designed life skill that targets unclosed traumatic memory.

RRT allows a person too safely and protectively:
• revisit
• reset
• close
• and then file the traumatic memory

Dr. Bill's book,  Separated From the Light : A Path Back from Psychological Trauma puts forth his theories and principles for stopping the haunting memories from the experience of trauma and abuse.  He has also created CD's and DVD's for both survivors and professionals that teach his Rapid Reduction Technique, which is the same ground-breaking, process that he uses in his practice. Incorporating these techniques into life coaching sessions, Dr. Bill can help anyone develop the healing life skills necessary to take back their personal authority from memories of past trauma and abuse and move forward in life. ...learn more
