Healing Through An Internal Meeting
- Melissa describes an EMDR conference exercise where three internal parts—Lulee (child), an old woman, and Eve (sexual/self)—appeared vividly.
- Engaging Eve, apologizing, and washing her of shame led to grieving and conception three months later.
Cultural Shame Creates Internal Split
- Growing up with teachings that the body was sinful created an internal civil war between body and mind.
- That split likely contributed to long-term struggles, including difficulty conceiving.
Confrontation With The Shamed Part
- A young, naked, mud-smeared woman named Eve appeared and angrily said, "you did this to me."
- Melissa felt disgust, panic, and repulsion, then shifted to questioning Eve's accusation.
