Types of Physical and Sexual Abuse 

A s I mentioned in the introduction, abuse covers an enormous field. For general information, I have categorized the acts of abuse, both physically and sexually, below. You are welcome to add more. Many of the actions are found in both categories particularly in ritual, government, and alien abuse. These realities do exist on this 3rd Plane of Existence and have been mentioned by Vianna during lectures as well. I have worked with clients who have experienced such abuse and trauma. As ThetaHealers®, we cannot be blind to Creator’s Truth. And you certainly have a choice to work with these kinds of clients or not. Education and applicable tools assist you to expand your paradigms as Creator’s practitioners. 

I consider neglect under physical abuse though it is often categorized by itself…that would seem par-for-the-course in being left alone.9 

Remember that abuse/trauma can occur anywhere, from the home to battlefields. 

Physical Abuse:

• Being hit, spanked, punched, beat, battered 
• Hung by feet or arms/hands 
• Stepped on or kicked 
• Pulled by hair
• Tickled excessively
• Shaken, thrown, choked 
• Cut, bitten 
• Burned 
• Neglect 
• Starvation 
• Torture variations- Water submersion, electro-shock, put in ice or scalding water, sleep deprivation, psychic driving (page 103), body mutilation, etc. 
• Psychological (kidnapping, war, terrorism, hostage, ritual and government mind control/brainwashing) 
• Government experimentation (such as injection of diseases and toxins, Manchurian candidates/assassination mind control programming, manipulations of DNA, cloning, remote viewing, spying, virtual reality, and teleportation) 
• Alien Experimentation—(exploratory, non-medical implantation, rape, egg harvesting, hybriding, DNA changes)

Sexual Abuse: 

• Verbal sexual innuendos and harrassment 
• Inappropriate touching: fondling, licking of genitals, mouth, ears, breasts of children 
• Genital exposure; forced masturbation 
• Digital (hand/finger) penetration 
• Oral, genital, or anal rape 
• Vaginal/genital mutilation and circumcision 
• Making children read pornographic material or performing in pornographic movies/snuff films 
• Involvement in prostitution/child sex slavery 
• Forced bestiality 
• Ritual abuse (including Satanism and Black Witchcraft—invocation of demonic entities, rape, torture, mutilation, sexual slavery, murder, sacrifice, and mind control programming)

Understanding Abuse from a Brain & Physiological Level 

Childhood abuse can have lasting effects on the entire brain and body if not healed. High-stress early environments for children create problems in attention regulation and self-control which often causes hyperactivity, anxiety, and/or difficulties with inhibiting destructive impulses. 

The interaction between our environment and the DNA plays a crucial role in determining our resistance to stress thus the risk for suicide. The function of the DNA is not fixed like once theorized. Epigenetic marks, the study of how a person’s genes are constantly remodeled in response to life experiences (the more positive experiences you have, the stronger your genes will become) are the product of this interaction.10 

A research study from Douglas Mental Health University Institute found a gene, NR3CI, which influences the brain’s susceptibility to stress hormones. It was less likely to be activated in people who have been abused. Those who have been abused had lower levels of expression in the gene for the glucocorticoid (cortisol) receptor, which is critical for the stress response pathway. This kind of gene expression, in adaptation to trauma especially early in life, becomes a “state of mind, brain, and body” around which subsequent experiences organize.11 On a spiritual level, this is an exemplary explanation of how we arrange our realities from our experiences. This is not to blame those who have been abused but allow the practitioner the understanding of the spiritual perceptions in reality patterning. 

Children who are abused early are flooded with stress hormones like adrenaline and cortisol, impacting on how the brain develops and affects the stress regulation system. In being flooded with fightor-flight hormones, fear is maintained and can become pathological.12 This in turn puts impact on the hippocampus, the area which controls feelings, meaning that adults abused as children will be more likely to be highly stressed, have difficulties with anger and emotions, and be prone to self-harm, anxiety, suicide and depression.13 Have you ever considered that such disorders as some cases of OCD, Bi-polar, Schizophrenia, Borderline schizophrenia, and all Dissociative Disorders might originate from abuse?14 15 

There is a decrease of cortex activity and an increase of limbic system sensitivity (responsible for emotions), decreased hippocampal volume (memory function is impaired…related to psychiatric disorders like PTSD and depression), impact on the left and right hemisphere, underdevelopment of left brain (control of language), a smaller corpus callosum (less integration of the hemispheres which can lead to dramatic shifts in mood or personality), and neuro-endocrine alterations (affects a range of basic psychological and physiological functions).16 

Research shows adults with histories of child abuse can respond to minor triggers with a range of catastrophic reactions. This is because these people become increasingly responsive to relatively minor stimuli as a result of decreased frontal lobe functioning (learning and problem solving) and increased limbic system (amygdala) sensitivity (impulsiveness).17 

Yale Child Study Center found that the brain areas in abused children have fewer synapses or neural connections.18 There can also be a decreased production of thyroid hormone which regulates metabolism.

從大腦和生理層面理解虐待

如果不治癒童年虐待的創傷，它會對整個大腦和身體產生持久影響。兒童早期的高壓環境會造成注意力調節和自我控制方面的問題，這通常會導致過動、焦慮和/或難以抑制破壞性衝動。

我們的環境和 DNA 之間的相互作用在決定我們對壓力的抵抗力以及自殺風險方面發揮著至關重要的作用。 DNA 的功能並不像曾經理論上的那樣固定。表觀遺傳標記是這種交互作用的產物，它研究一個人的基因如何根據生活經驗不斷重塑（你擁有的正面經驗越多，你的基因就會變得越強大）。10

道格拉斯心理健康大學研究所的一項研究發現了一種基因 NR3CI，它會影響大腦對壓力激素的敏感性。它在遭受虐待的人身上被激活的可能性較小。那些遭受虐待的人類糖皮質激素（皮質醇）受體基因的表達水平較低，而這對於壓力反應途徑至關重要。這種基因表現在適應創傷（尤其是在生命早期）時，成為一種“精神、大腦和身體的狀態”，隨後的經歷圍繞著它組織起來。在靈性層面上，這是我們如何根據經驗安排現實的典範解釋。這並不是責怪那些被虐待的人，而是讓修行者了解現實模式中的精神感知。

早期受到虐待的兒童體內會充滿腎上腺素和皮質醇等壓力荷爾蒙，影響大腦的發展和壓力調節系統。在充滿“戰或逃”激素的情況下，恐懼會持續存在並可能變得病態。12 這反過來又會對海馬體（控制情緒的區域）產生影響，這意味著小時候受到虐待的成年人更有呈現高壓狀態，憤怒和情緒困難，並且容易自殘、焦慮、自殺和憂鬱。13 您是否曾經考慮過某些疾病，例如強迫症、雙向情緒障礙、精神分裂症、邊緣性精神分裂症和所有解離性障礙可能源於虐待？14 15

皮質活動減少，邊緣系統敏感性增加（負責情緒），海馬體積減少（記憶功能受損…與創傷後壓力症候群（PTSD）和憂鬱症等精神疾病有關），左右半球受到影響，左半球發育不全大腦（控制語言）、較小的胼胝體（半球整合程度較低，這可能導致情緒或性格的巨大變化）以及神經內分泌改變（影響一系列基本的心理和生理功能）。16

研究表明，有虐待兒童歷史的成年人可能會對輕微的觸發因素做出一系列災難性的反應。這是因為，由於額葉功能（學習和解決問題）下降和邊緣系統（杏仁核）敏感性（衝動）增加，這些人對相對較小的刺激變得越來越敏感。17

耶魯兒童研究中心發現，受虐兒童的大腦區域的突觸或神經連結較少。18 調節新陳代謝的甲狀腺激素的產生也可能減少。

The Impact of Neglect and Trauma on the Developing Brain:
How Nurture Becomes Nature
At the Developmental Traumatology Laboratory at Western Psychiatric Institute and Clinics in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, researchers are conducting studies in traumatized children using the most up-to-date methods to study their stress circuits and brain development. In a recent report, they described their findings on maltreated children with PTSD who they compared to healthy, normal children and to children with clinical anxiety disorders who had not been maltreated. Many of the maltreated children had been sexually abused beginning between the ages of 18 months and 7 years. They had also witnessed domestic violence beginning early in life, and some had been battered by family members. For most of the children with PTSD, the trauma was chronic, lasting for several years before the children were rescued.

Unlike non-maltreated comparison children, the children with PTSD had elevated levels of the stress hormones adrenaline and cortisol, even on a normal day when nothing especially stressful was happening (DeBellis, Baum, et al., 1999). Thus, these children’s stress systems seemed to be turned on even when they didn’t need to be. Especially high stress hormone levels were found among the children who had been abused for longer and/or had more severe PTSD. Very similar results have been found for children rescued from Romanian orphanages, even though for the most part these children had been severely neglected rather than
physically or sexually abused.

The Pittsburgh group also scanned the brains of maltreated children with PTSD. Even after they accounted for many things that could produce mistaken results, they found striking evidence of smaller brain volumes, with larger effects the earlier the abuse began and the longer it lasted before the children were rescued (De Bellis, Keshaven, et al., 1999).

Similar results have been found at the CIVITAS Child Trauma Programs at Baylor College of Medicine. Did the abuse cause the brains of these children to be smaller? We can’t be certain. Would the brains of abused children who did not develop chronic PTSD also show some reduction in size? We don’t know. But these data and other studies currently underway certainly encourage concern about the impact that maltreatment may have on the child’s developing nervous system.

忽視虐待與創傷對大腦發展的影響：
教養如何成為大自然
在賓州匹茲堡西方精神病學研究所和診所的發展創傷學實驗室，研究人員正在使用最新的方法對受創傷的兒童進行研究，以研究他們的壓力迴路和大腦發展。在最近的一份報告中，他們描述了對患有創傷後壓力症候群（PTSD）的受虐兒童的研究結果，並將這些兒童與健康、正常的兒童以及未受虐待的臨床焦慮症的兒童進行了比較。許多受虐待的兒童在 18 個月至 7 歲之間就遭受性虐待。他們也目睹了從小就開始的家庭暴力，有些人還遭到家人的毆打。對於大多數患有創傷後壓力症候群的兒童來說，創傷是慢性的，在兒童獲救之前持續了數年。

與未受虐待的對照兒童不同，患有創傷後壓力症候群的兒童的壓力荷爾蒙腎上腺素和皮質醇水平升高，即使在沒有發生特別壓力的正常日子裡也是如此（DeBellis, Baum, et al ., 1999）。因此，這些孩子的壓力系統似乎在不需要的時候就被打開了。在遭受虐待時間較長和/或患有更嚴重創傷後壓力症候群的兒童中，壓力荷爾蒙水平尤其高。從羅馬尼亞孤兒院獲救的兒童也發現了非常相似的結果，儘管這些兒童大部分都受到嚴重忽視，而不是被忽視。
身體或性虐待。

匹茲堡小組還掃描了遭受虐待的創傷後壓力症候群（PTSD）兒童的大腦。即使他們考慮了許多可能產生錯誤結果的因素，他們仍然發現了令人震驚的證據，表明大腦體積較小，虐待開始越早，孩子獲救前持續的時間越長，影響就越大（De Bellis、 Keshaven 等人，1999 年）。

貝勒醫學院的 CIVITAS 兒童創傷計畫也發現了類似的結果。虐待是否導致這些孩子的大腦變小？我們不能確定。沒有患有慢性創傷後壓力症候群的受虐兒童的大腦也會出現一些縮小嗎？我們不知道。但這些數據和目前正在進行的其他研究無疑引發了人們對虐待可能對兒童發育中的神經系統產生的影響的擔憂。

Signs of Childhood Abuse in Adults 

Outward signs of adults with symptoms of childhood abuse can vary. Some adults become overachievers and appear extremely successful in the world. Others end up on the street, homeless or in mental or penal institutions. People cope the best way they can given their connection to their inner strength and their soul journey. All through this stream of awareness, choices are given to each of us in how to change life patterns to help evolve in more fulfilling ways. As practitioners, we are not here to judge the conditions or journey in any way. 

Your connection with Creator-of-All and scanning the body will reveal a great deal (look at the patterning in the colon and brain around abuse). Listening to the client describe their life and their relationship with their family leads to ways in identifying possible patterns of abuse. One symptom does not mean a person was abused physically or sexually. Check in with Creator. 

Compared with people without a history of childhood abuse, adults with such a history are more likely to have: no or little memories of childhood, “spliced memories” of childhood (i.e. remembering going to a store and leaving but not remembering what happened while there), out-of-body experience to escape; substance abuse or a partner with a substance abuse problem; anxiety disorders; depression; OCD; suicidal ideation or behavior; unintended pregnancy; selfinjury; abuse their own children or refuse to properly discipline their children; dissociative disorders; schizophrenia; aberrant behaviors; eating disorders; sleep disorders; sexual dysfunction or promiscuity; lack of pain sensation; chronic head, face or pelvic pain; musculoskeletal complaints; gastrointestinal distress or symptoms; asthma or other respiratory ailments; weight and self-image issues; pseudoneurologic symptoms (dizziness, etc.). 19 

Keep in mind that if clients come in with scarcity or financial issues, abundance flows best when the first and second chakras are open. This means that if a person has been physically or sexually abused or the body or energy registers that way in those chakras, negative programs will need to be cleared so the abundance can once again come into balance. 

Lori Kondora, a nurse who interviewed adult women who had been sexually abused as children, found that while many women experienced low self-esteem, depression, addictive behaviors, anxiety, pain and eating disorders, some women also experienced resilience, independence, creativity, a deeper spirituality, and personal strength. Remembering was central to the beginning of the healing process and telling their stories to others enhanced that process.20

P.12

Witnessing Trauma can be Traumatic 

A client can witness trauma when he or she was young. There are different effects in how the child unconsciously copes with such situations. This is why it is so important to keep children away from violent TV, movies and video games. The process of desensitization can start early, and the child can have difficulty growing up connected to their feelings. 

Coping strategies: 

1. They might take the situation on energetically as if it happened to them. There is a dissociation or confusion in who it was happening to physically.

Check: 

◊ I know how to tell the difference between what happened and the energy I took on from the occurrence. 

◊ I know the difference between what happened in my childhood and who it happened to. 

2. In believing that they have to protect another, though it may not have been physically threatening to them, they hold the energy of the attack within themselves. They might hold onto a soul fragment or give a soul fragment to the other person being hurt (page 175-176 of Basic Theta textbook). They might share their life force with another. You can command to return not only soul fragments but the separate life forces. It’s very powerful!

Life Force Separated and Returned 

Command to witness the life force around and connected to the client as it separates in what was intermingled with another. The original life force returns to the client.

Check: 

◊ I have to give up a part of myself to save my family… a sibling…a parent…another child…a friend…a pet. 

3. They could internalize by blaming themselves for not being able to do something to stop the abuse. In-other-words, they unconsciously think that their suffering, guilt or strength will help the person being abused. You will find that this often happens in both physically violent homes and in witnessing sexual abuse of other siblings or friends. This must be ascertained by your connection to Creator so you can guide the person.

Check: 

◊ It’s my fault for being unable to stop the abuse. 

◊ I blame myself for others actions. 

◊ I have to use my suffering…my guilt…my strength to save another. 

4. Emotional incest, taking care of the emotional needs of an adult, can lead empathic children to interpret intentions of an adult whose energy feels malevolent, violent or sexual, as having been abused.

Work on issues around boundaries and separating the needs, thoughts, feelings, ideas and opinions of others from the client’s needs, thoughts, feelings, ideas, and opinions. Teach the client how to be a priority in their own life w/o feeling guilty or selfish. Teach them what it feels like for their needs to matter and count. Make sure to check any oaths, vows, promises, trades and contracts that might stop them from being a priority person in their life.

#### 兒童期虐待在成人中的徵兆

成年人表現出童年時期虐待的症狀會有所不同。有些成人成為過度成就者，在社會上顯得非常成功。另一些則可能流落街頭，無家可歸，或進入精神病院或監獄。每個人都根據自己的內在力量和靈魂旅程，以最佳方式應對這些情況。在這種意識流中，我們每個人都被賦予了選擇的機會，如何改變生活模式以幫助自己以更滿足的方式成長。作為實踐者，我們的角色不是評判這些人的處境或旅程。

與萬物的創造者的連結和身體掃描將揭示很多信息（查看結腸和大腦周圍的虐待模式）。傾聽客戶描述他們的生活及其與家庭的關係，可以幫助識別潛在的虐待模式。一個症狀並不意味著一個人遭受了身體或性虐待。請與創造者確認。

與沒有童年虐待歷史的人相比，有童年虐待歷史的成年人更可能有以下表現：無或很少的童年記憶、「切片式的記憶」(即記得去商店和離開的過程，但不記得期間發生的事情)；出體經歷以逃避現實；物質濫用或伴侶有物質濫用問題；焦慮症；抑鬱症；強迫症；自殺意念或行為；非預期懷孕；自我傷害；虐待自己的孩子或拒絕適當地懲戒他們的孩子；分離性障礙；精神分裂症；反常行為；飲食障礙；睡眠障礙；性功能障礙或濫交；缺乏疼痛感；慢性頭痛、面痛或骨盆痛；肌肉骨骼投訴；腸胃不適或症狀；哮喘或其他呼吸道疾病；體重和自我形象問題；偽神經症狀（如頭暈等）。

請記住，如果客戶來諮詢有關匱乏或財務問題的情況，豐盛的流動最順利的時候是第一和第二脈輪打開的時候。這意味著如果一個人曾經遭受身體或性虐待，或其身體或能量在這些脈輪中有這樣的註記，負面的程序將需要被清除，以便豐盛再次回到平衡狀態。

Lori Kondora 是一位採訪過曾在童年時期遭受性虐待的成年女性的護士，她發現儘管許多女性經歷了低自尊、抑鬱、成癮行為、焦慮、疼痛和飲食障礙，但一些女性也表現出了韌性、獨立性、創造力、更深的靈性和個人力量。記憶是治癒過程的開始，而將她們的故事告訴他人則進一步促進了這個過程。

### 第12頁

#### 目睹創傷也會帶來創傷

當客戶年幼時，他或她可能會目睹創傷。孩子在無意識中應對這些情況的方式可能會有不同的影響。這就是為什麼讓孩子遠離暴力電視、電影和電子遊戲如此重要的原因。去敏感化的過程可以從早期開始，孩子在成長過程中可能會與自己的情感脫節。

應對策略：

他們可能會把這些情況當作發生在自己身上一樣，能量上也這樣認為。這種情況下，他們會出現分離或混淆，不清楚事件實際上發生在誰身上。

檢查：
◊ 我知道如何區分事件發生的事實和我從中接受到的能量。
◊ 我知道如何區分童年發生的事情以及它實際發生在誰身上。
如果他們認為自己必須保護另一個人，儘管對他們而言可能並沒有實際的威脅，他們仍會將攻擊的能量保存在自己體內。他們可能會保留靈魂碎片或將靈魂碎片交給被傷害的人（參見Theta基本教科書第175-176頁）。他們可能會與他人分享自己的生命力。您可以下令歸還不僅是靈魂碎片，還有分離的生命力。這非常強大！

**分離並歸還生命力**
下令見證環繞並連接到客戶的生命力，這些生命力與他人交織在一起，現在將原始生命力歸還給客戶。

檢查：
◊ 我必須放棄自己的一部分來拯救我的家庭…一個兄弟姐妹…一個父母…另一個孩子…一個朋友…一個寵物。

他們可能會因未能阻止虐待而責備自己。換句話說，他們在無意識中認為自己的痛苦、內疚或力量可以幫助被虐待的人。您會發現，這種情況通常發生在肢體暴力的家庭中，也發生在目睹兄弟姐妹或朋友遭受性虐待的情況中。這需要通過您與創造者的連接來確認，以便您能引導這個人。

檢查：
◊ 因為我無法阻止虐待，這是我的錯。
◊ 我責怪自己對他人的行為負責。
◊ 我必須用我的痛苦…我的內疚…我的力量來拯救他人。

**情感亂倫**，
照顧成人的情感需求，可能會導致有同理心的孩子將感覺邪惡、暴力或性侵犯能量的成人的意圖解讀為虐待。

處理界線問題，將他人的需求、想法、感受、想法和意見與客戶的需求、想法、感受、想法和意見分開。教導客戶如何在自己的生活中成為首要任務，而不感到內疚或自私。教導他們讓自己的需求變得重要和有價值的感覺。確保檢查任何誓言、誓約、承諾、交易和契約，這些可能會阻止他們在生活中成為優先人物。
