"Dear Dr. Arthur Janov!
...An email comment: <br /><i>"Dear Dr. Arthur Janov!<br /> <br /> Since many years ago I`ve read all of your books in german. I`m a guitar teacher and studying Psychologie. As the leader of a austrian Health organisation<br /> in respect of vitamins, minerals and aminoacids, I`m sure, that there is a connection between enviromenttoxins and behavior. On the other hand there<br /> is primal pain, which causes a lot of deseases.<br /> <br /> Now my question: Is there a connection between ADHS (Attention-Deficit-Hyperactivity-Disorder) and birth-trauma? A lot of parents of children with<br /> symptoms of ADHS in Austria told us, that their child have had a birthtrauma. All symptoms exist from the very beginning. In general the doctors here give the children medikaments like:"Ritalin"-has a lot of sideeffects like those of Morbus Parkinson..a symptomtreatment..<br /> <br /> An Austrian film-organisation: Schrittwieser-Film"Spielball Mensch" (translated: Playball Human being) asked me about your Therapie in this connection.<br /> I`m very interested, because I`m sure, that the Primal Treatment is the best way to go straight to the main point of pain and in the end to the feeling.<br /> <br /> I have had a wonderful birth myself: In just 5 hours I was born and I smiled afterwards. My mother also told me, that she did not have so much pain<br /> although she did not get any painkiller.<br /> I´m very glad that you found that way, to help so many people to find out of their pain.<br /> Kind regards, Eva Schumacher"</i>Arthur Janovhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18009571728800026496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3420173096635836108.post-7436183600314524422010-12-27T00:46:03.379-08:002010-12-27T00:46:03.379-08:00Emanuel: I emptied a lot so it should work now. ...Emanuel: I emptied a lot so it should work now.

After you have read them write and ask me again. I have been using "Imprints for 43 y ears. And I guarantee that no other person discovered birth primals. There were many afterward who made a religion out of it but it is today a quite precise scientific undertaking. And has nothing to do with rebirthing. art janovArthur Janovhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18009571728800026496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3420173096635836108.post-61103793557676901412010-12-26T03:16:19.992-08:002010-12-26T03:16:19.992-08:00Hi,
From the previous entry. . .
Though I don'...Hi,<br />From the previous entry. . . <br />Though I don't like to hear it, I'm glad to be put straight on the insignificance of meditation!<br /><br />It's interesting though painful watching my own belief system crumble in the face of this ongoing discussion. Chucking out old clothes, don't fit any more, seems now that they never did. . .<br /><br />My life has been falling apart in cycles since I was 15. For all of us at some stage of retrieving lost feelings I too can confirm better relations with my children and also more courage to challenge the falsities in others.<br /><br />Last night I held my 6 month old grandson flat in my hands whilst he writhed like a snake, quietly, grunting and sort of struggling for breath, looking up at the light in the living room. It gradually dawned on me that he is re-living his birth, writhing like a fish or snake looking at light at the end of the birth canal. I'm talking to my 19yr old son (the babys' Dad) and and he's telling me this has been happening regularly since birth and that he also holds him and looks into his eyes whilst he is doing this.<br /><br />Is my Grandson spontaneously Primalling? I am so close to my feelings most of the time now I seem to be resonating with people in a way that is both heartening or frightening as some (who are obviously v frightened) rebel and reject me. . . (often with the look of a very scared lizard in their eyes). <br /><br />We gotta have some defences and the hazard to all of us of loosening defences and retrieving feelings is the confusion and dissorientation that comes naturally with such change. It's good to take a stand sometimes, in my opinion. That's what the toddler in us used to do to begin the process of individuation. . . NO! Don't be hurt by other people nor believe in their opinions, they may not understand their own feelings let alone yours.<br /><br />Good Luck and Best wishes to all for the new year to come.<br /><br />PG.Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02006514330039884557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3420173096635836108.post-31029186332698429232010-12-24T04:25:42.191-08:002010-12-24T04:25:42.191-08:00Dear Art overquota means that Your e-mail account ...Dear Art overquota means that Your e-mail account is "full2 ,replete...with lenghty mails.. so that <br />n o new emails get through -I tried a " simple2 one without attachment. it did got through .Perhaps You ask Your secretary...

For example, it is said that another therapist introduced the term “imprints” before you took it up; and that Helen Roth first discovered birth primals. What other therapies do you look out for for new developments? Afterall, people learn from each other and nobody works in a vacuum. <br /><br />Gordongordonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09991721507554227455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3420173096635836108.post-47005565872150455902010-12-23T15:00:27.006-08:002010-12-23T15:00:27.006-08:00Dear Chyron: I was really touched by your story, a...Dear Chyron: I was really touched by your story, and can relate to much of what you wrote (except about having done Primal, which I have not).<br /><br />Marcomacor22https://www.blogger.com/profile/00652948318839690382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3420173096635836108.post-8701336534555871652010-12-23T13:33:56.547-08:002010-12-23T13:33:56.547-08:00Emanuel: can you send it to the blog?

The point is that when I look at my life, I realize the great failure has been practically in every area.The misfortunes which have been in my family makes it hard about continuing to live .Not even primal therapy can take away this emptines. But has no been for primal therapy i should gone mad. I live in Spain, Barcelona, and there is no primal therapy center, to share my pain with someone. It's hard after being in Los Angeles doing the therapy can not talk to anyone once you're back to your home.Is like having a secret within you that you can not reveal because others are not prepared. This is one reason why this blog is good, it able you to share your concerns with people who understand what you mean.<br />and now a mix of observations.<br /> - For me the big change I have doing more or less primal therapy, is my relationship with the children. Before i was cold and insecure with them giving me shame even catch them. Now the opposite is true, I love playing with them, listen and care.<br /> - About publicize the primal center, I think the problem is that threre are few therapists. So to create a demand for something that can´t be offered is not the best idea. Besides I get the feeling, from interviews I've read, is that Arthur Janov does not like giving too much publicity. For example, I read in an interview that when John Lennon said he wanted to announce that he has been saved by primal therapy, Janov said he was not interested in that kind of publicity.And writers such as Michel Odent who even prefaced a book of Janov, I have never read any reference in his books about Janov. Well it's a perception. <br />By the way Merry Christmas to allchyronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15298428106587062871noreply@blogger.com
