Foreword

I was at a particularly low point in my life – the kind where you just can’t seem to figure out how to get unstuck – when I turned to Maxine Taylor for a session.

I feel so depressed, I confided in Maxine.

This is going to be the shortest healing session you ever had, Maxine responded.

But Maxine, I protested, you have no idea how bad I feel.

It was true. Maxine did give me the shortest and one of the most profound healings I have ever experienced.

Take back your life, she said simply.

It was right then and there – without telling me what to do, without a word of practical advice, but a simple clarification of what had gone on – that Maxine opened my eyes and showed me the next step I had to take if I was going to get out of the pit I had somehow fallen into.

Take back your life. What a concept!

I quickly saw for myself – without Maxine’s promptings – all the many ways I had given my very valuable life away to a man I thought I loved and whom I thought loved me. I had made him the center of my life, given up my friends, my home and almost nearly my identity when Maxine stepped in to show me the pattern.

We give our life away whenever we make someone else’s path, feelings, needs, wants, whims and fancies the priority. This has nothing to do with being selfless or selfish.

You have to remember that your life is precious. What you are meant to do in this lifetime is your gift to the world.

When we take back our life, we take back our power, we take back our energy and we can refocus on what it is that we are meant not only to do, but also to contribute.

Within a month of my indeed very short healing session with Maxine Taylor, I had broken up with the man I realized did not actually love me, moved back into my home in Atlanta, rekindled my business and gotten back on track with my life.

A second healing I received from Maxine helped me to explore the many ways I had been programmed to believe that I was not good enough.

Even though I had gotten over feeling not good enough, there were more layers to release. We all receive this programming – inadvertently, but definitely – throughout our life. These limiting beliefs can affect everything we say about ourself and everything we do. As we put these silly ideas under the microscope, we can have a good laugh at the core beliefs that have been ruining our lives and rewrite the script for something more uplifting.

Bless you, Maxine Taylor, for helping us see that we are, in fact, limitless beings!

Introduction

A few years ago, I wrote a powerful book called Move into the Magic in which I introduced my Take Back Your Life method. The First Sexual Imprinting is the sequel to that book.

If you have read and followed the steps I shared in Move into the Magic, or if you have had a private, face-to-face session with me, you know how simple, eye-opening and revealing the Take Back Your Life method is. You know how easily you were able to see your life story, your programming and the commitments you made to the authority figures in your life. You have seen the power of the original Bad Message, the cause of these commitments. You have identified the power of your mother’s message, which deals with how you think, your father’s message, which deals with how you act, your family’s message, which deals with how you are, etc. You have released the commitments you made to all these people and rewritten them your way.

After sharing Take Back Your Life in private sessions with many people for many years, I discovered that we can plug any subject into the Take Back Your Life method. At the same time, I was given more information on the different categories that contribute to our programming. For example, I changed the category called Teams to The Tail That Wags the Dog because this is the person who makes the rules for our life and determines what we can or cannot have. I also discovered a very easy way to see the ego in action. And I added two new categories: 1) your culture, and 2) your childhood concept of God.

In addition, I realized that one of the most powerful and important categories women face is how we allow ourselves to be treated by men, which goes back to our first sexual imprinting. This issue by itself influences every area of life because the way we do anything is the way we do everything. As more and more women came forward over the past few years to tell the truth about the powerful men who sexually molested them, I realized it was time to help them see where this began and how to release the hidden messages they received as children that created it.

As you read these true stories, your own programming may be triggered. If you become upset, just follow the steps described in this book. It can be helpful to step back and see your life as a movie in which you play all
