MAT HISTORY
Rapid Growth Technique is a trauma and stress release personal development process. I believe that trauma (this could include physical, emotional or environmental) is the ultimate cause of most human problems. What makes Rapid Growth Technique different is that 80% of the time you do not require the client to talk about or re-experience trauma in order to resolve it. In fact, a person can often resolve trauma easily through identifying its hidden benefit (known as secondary gain), without discussing the actual trauma. This also includes knowing and understanding how the body stores and expresses trauma.
Epigenetic’s is an important part of the science behind Metaphysical Anatomy. What matters is this: the original cause of a problem is likely to be trauma, whether in the client’s early childhood or in a pre-existing trauma in the ancestry line that may have indirectly been activated by an unrelated trauma. The great thing about the Rapid Growth Technique is that in most cases, people do not always need to know what the origin of the trauma was. During the trainings I also explain how someone’s state of trauma can even unconsciously serve him or her in one way or another. The trauma creates a barrier around the person and they push others away and establish boundaries with this barrier.
It is important to understand the significance of trauma and why unresolved trauma is significant for a person’s wellbeing and emotional state.Trauma occurs when a person feels unsafe. Examples can include physical assault, an accident, injury or other events, which involved a threat to a person’s survival. Witnessing harm to someone else (including seeing photos or videos) can also constitute trauma [Source: DSM-IV, pp. 424-28].
The significance of trauma lies in the fact that it has such a powerful role in changing lives. Your trauma can leave a strong predisposition and cellular memory of a traumatic event that can be expressed in your future children and grandchildren’s lives. For instance, childhood trauma can drastically change a person’s life, influencing every aspect of their health, relationships, education and career. The science of epigenetic demonstrates that trauma creates biological change, which can last for many generations. That means that the trauma people experience, even just witnessing it, can create physical and emotional changes to their future grandchildren and great grandchildren. I highly recommend the documentary, ‘The Ghost in our Genes.

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN COMPLETING TRAUMA AND SURVIVING TRAUMA
The philosopher Frederick Nietzsche said, “That which doesn’t kill us makes us stronger.” I personally do not agree with this statement. It depends how a person reacts to the trauma after surviving it. Trauma does not necessarily make a person stronger. It can cause a person to be less sensitive to future trauma, which unfortunately means they have successfully suppressed and bypassed their past trauma and as a result often become ill as stress and trauma cycles are completed by the body. What some people perceive as “being strong” is actually someone’s ability to dissociate, avoiding and resisting dealing with their trauma. Humans seem to lack the animal ability to complete a trauma cycle after surviving it, whether it was emotional, physical or sexual abuse.
If an antelope narrowly escapes an attack by a lion, it is probably traumatized. As soon as the antelope is safe, it goes through a process of shaking off the trauma. The shaking may resemble the physical action and movement that helped the antelope to survive the threat and pending trauma (e.g. running) as if the animal is completing the act of survival. After a few minutes, it has released the trauma and it runs away, healthy and free from trauma. It starts grazing again, as if nothing had happened. This process is called completing trauma.
According to Dr. Robert C. Scaer, this process of completing trauma is a way of “discharging retained autonomic (nervous system) energy.” According to Scaer’s research, humans lack the ability to discharge this autonomic nervous energy. The human physically survives the trauma, however never completes the trauma. The traumatic experience may be imprinted and stored in the brain. There is suppressed adrenaline in the body and the muscles are still tensed as if though the body still wants to protect itself from a possible threat. This behavior surfaces as tension and rigidity. This is why past trauma can create so many long-term symptoms in humans.
When a human survives trauma, there is no release of this nervous energy and the person keeps carrying that trauma for the rest of their life. According to epigenetic research, this trauma can be passed on to future generations. Trauma is a significant cause of disease, which humans have trouble healing. Any successful healing tool must enable a client to complete their trauma.
Unfortunately, in many modalities, the client is guided to relive the trauma. Metaphysical Anatomy allows a person to not only complete trauma but to resolve specific traumas without talking about it or reliving it in any way.
In a moment of trauma, you will find a way to be and feel safe. This may include reaching out to someone for safety or taking comfort in the numbness or freeze instinct. Every time you experience a similar trauma, you may revert back to the state of mind and gut instinct that kept you safe initially. This can have a long-term effect of allowing you to disassociate from many areas in your life. Becoming numb or feeling paralyzed once served you in a positive way however, the positive survival tactic has negative consequences. The numbness will influence every aspect of your life.
Finding your survival instinct within the moment of trauma may cause you to associate your trauma with survival. You may find yourself afraid of letting go of the trauma because it may mean letting go of the survival instinct you’ve adopted. You must learn how to cope outside of the trauma.
