Freedom from Mind Control – Neil Brick Subliminal
methods and mind control influence our lives in all areas. Social and cultural
forms of mind control keep us from growing as human beings. These forms of
control make it difficult for us to grow and learn as survivors. They make it
more difficult to work through cult control programming to free our minds
and our lives. Recovery techniques will be discussed that can help survivors and
others break through their mind control programs and influences.
Neil
Brick is a survivor of ritual abuse and mind control. His work continues to
educate the public about child abuse, trauma and ritual abuse crimes. His child
abuse and ritual abuse newsletter S.M.A.R.T. has been published for over 20
years. http://neilbrick.com
How
to Decrease Internal System In-Fighting and Increase Respect for The Gifts of
All Internal Parts – Eileen Aveni This presentation will focus on
understanding the internal systems that may be present in a survivor, and how to
work with them to gradually enable them to work together for true safety and
healing. Often internal parts are at odds with each other (such as higher
level alters, reporter alters, persecutor/protector alters, and other internal
alters) because they are used to ‘doing their jobs” and following orders.
But they are really allies in the system and can be helped to learn better and
more effective ways to keep everyone in the system safe and help heal the
system. The focus will be on how to communicate with parts who might seem
particularly difficult to work with, learn to recognize their true gifts to the
internal system, and how to develop a community of mutual respect.
Eileen
Aveni, LMSW, LCSW, ACSW, BCD is a psychotherapist with 30+ years in medical and
psychiatric settings working alongside other DID, Ritual Abuse, & Mind
Control treatment specialists and law enforcement involved in these
cases.
