Avril’s World

“Behind the scenes” (inside the mind) of an “Autistic” child.

Before embarking on Avril’s journey with her, let us firstly look at the “apparent” definition of “Autism”.

“Autism” would appear to most people, to be broadly outlined as a withdrawal from life, to a greater or lesser degree, and an inability to communicate in the “normal” accepted way. “Autistic” children are therefore often  labelled “difficult”, “aggressive”, “sullen”, “moody”, “uncooperative”, “disruptive” and even “violent”.

The criteria, medically speaking, to be diagnosed as “Autistic” would appear to epitomise an inflexible and narrow child, causing children who broadly speaking come into the “Autistic spectrum”, to be dismissed as being hyperactive, undisciplined children, and therefore not being given the help to integrate into society, in the way they need to do .

May I be permitted to put forward my awareness of Autism from a very much broader, holistic (whole) angle, and maybe then we may see ways to go forward with these special children as individuals, adapting ourselves to “teach them in the way they can learn”, not pushing them into rigid structures laid down by those who are unaware of the full picture of life, within which “Autism” is contained.

The law of the Universe, and life as we know it, runs on basically, very simple lines; the concept being that if something is meant to happen, then there has to be a way for that situation/episode/incident to come about.

This concept and precept, is based on the Universal law of Karma – cause and effect, i.e. what happened in the “past”, (however long or short a time ago the “past” may be), has a “knock on” effect on events of today.

All present and forthcoming events are born in the “metaphysical”, (beyond the physical), which simply means that “issues” held on a deep level of our being, manifest on the physical level as ailments, i.e. for every imbalance there is a metaphysical (deeper) cause, linked to an issue or issues.

To fully understand what those issues are, we must trace back through the symptoms which develop from the metaphysical, and deal with those deepest of issues.

As rebalancing of every life ailment and situation, can be dealt with and reversed, by accessing, acknowledging, understanding and dealing with the cause, when reversal takes place, the need for the symptomatic pattern is eliminated

 There are many starting points on any given level to commence this rebalancing/reversal; the determination of what level and what “tools” are required, is individual to the person concerned and their situation.

Before we can work with any given issues however, we must look at, and understand the “real” reason for the symptoms, and Autism in it’s true sense, would appear to be a very clearly defined “issue symptom”

“Autism” is, quite simply, a seeming “unwillingness” – on the supra conscious (very deep energy level of being), to actually be present, and function solely on a physical interactive level, i.e. this world we live in;

The core issue of this “unwillingness” can be attributed if you like, to one of several issues, within the main issue.

To understand and work with Autism, we need only look basically at this seeming unwillingness to interact; the rest will be progressively dealt with, within our work and understanding of the concept of Autism, looking always, at balancing all aspects of “being” together (mental, physical, spiritual and emotional), to effect a complete rebalancing structure for a given child, enabling them to find their own way “through the maze”, and live comfortably on the physical level of being.

Looking further at the concept of situations being meant to happen, and a way needing to be found, there is documented evidence that an Autistic child, is starved of vital nutrients in the womb, causing the endocrine system to malfunction, thereby triggering incorrect, muddled or simply no messages at all, from the pineal and pituitary glands in the brain, which “feed” all of the other endocrine glands in the body.

The severity of the malfunction, determines to what degree and in which way a child manifests Autistic tendencies;

There is a wonderful book on the market about an incredible child, who gives a documented first hand view of “Autism”. This book will be for many, an amazing eye-opener, and for others a confirmation of many factors, which they have always intuitively known.

It will give you an insight so rare, that if you truly wish to understand and work with Autistic children in any way, it is an absolute “must” to read.

The book is called “A child of Eternity”, written by Adriana Rocha and Kristi Jorde, ISBN no 0 – 7499 – 1615 – X.

Based on the metaphysical need for happening, and the karmic interlink that we all share within our family and social life circles, it is extremely likely that there is a genetic predisposition for the autistic manifestation, one that perhaps, could be looked at in more depth from a scientific angle in conjunction with the deeper aspects, thereby dealing also with the physical manifestations of Autism from an earlier stage, perhaps even in the womb itself.

I would refer you at this stage, to the incredible work of Dr Kypros Nikolaides, the pioneering doctor of pre-birth (womb) surgery, who has successfully undertaken the most amazing work in this field, that has been seen to date.

Let us now follow Avril’s Journey from birth, to the current day.

Avril was born the third child of Ceri and Dan, sister to 3 year old Ben and 18 month old Hester.

Her mother Ceri, had a difficult pregnancy, with health problems of her own, and an uncomfortably growing bump, much larger than with her previous two pregnancies;

An interesting factor here to take into consideration, is that of Avril being an “unplanned pregnancy”, so although she was a welcome surprise, nevertheless, this factor is an interesting one, seeming to mean that Avril was meant to be born into the family (and extended family) that she did indeed come into, very much against the odds!

 Healing in the womb was given to Avril to balance her “issues” prior to birth.

Avril had a difficult birth, which proved stressful also, to her mother Ceri, resulting in more ill health on Ceri’s part, for more than a year after Avril’s birth.

Avril was born later than her expected birth date, resulting in the fact of her being born into a difference astrological space, i.e. birth sign, and also on May 1^st, a day with the most incredible energy, such as is rarely seen upon this earth.

One may conclude that she waited for a given birth sign space (Taurus) and that special energy of her birth day, to enable her specific journey in this lifetime.

Avril was a fractious, discontented baby, seeming to be constantly demanding “something”, much of which seemed unfathomable to most of the people around her;

She did not seem to fit into any category, and was often referred to smilingly by her grandmother, (a Healer/Therapist), as a “changeling child”.

Avril attended her family G.P’s surgery, for the customary post- birth 6 week check up, and was pronounced “normal” in all areas;

 Two days after this check up, it became apparent to Avril’s Grandfather, that all was not well with Avril’s sight.

Avril and her mother, along with Avril’s Grandmother, saw an eminent children’s eye specialist who confirmed what the family had perceived, that Avril had no sight, but with no apparent physiological reason for this.

 Avril was quite patently, metaphysically, and symptomatically not wanting to see!

An intensive individual Healing programme was put into place by her family, (comprising therapists and health workers), to balance Avril’s issues on all levels; it soon became apparent that her sight was gradually becoming active, so that by the time Avril was 1 year old, her sight was considered “normal”.

From the age of one year, Avril was quite often a “sickly” child who would frequently appear to drift off, onto a totally different “level of being” to the physical plane she was living on;

She would suddenly then, after periods of between 3 and 12 minutes “snap back”, with a smile; an indication it was felt, that the place she had travelled to was much warmer and inviting than the place where she physically lived.

Her improved health and general well-being after these “trips”, would appear to also indicate as much.

A child of many levels and mood swings, a child who became unnaturally distressed, over seemingly unimportant factors, a child with a temper and much anger and frustration; these were just some of the phrases applied to Avril by observers from all walks of life.

To Avril her behaviour was, “normal”, an expressing of her emotions, whenever she felt the need to do so, in whichever way she chose, apparently disregarding of other people in her world, suggesting at times an inability and aversion to linking and interacting on the physical level where she resides.

As Avril progressed in chronological age, it became increasingly apparent that her motor skills, social skills, discernment and speech, were not developing within the spectrum one would usually expect to see.

On the other hand, her ability to communicate non-verbally, to those who could “hear” her, became also increasingly apparent, as did her affinity with animals;

This was totally at odds within her relationships with other children or indeed most adults; she had no real conception of their feelings, or how to interact with them on their level.

Her sleep pattern varied enormously too; she would suddenly fall asleep, almost where she stood or sat, with no real awareness, or indeed care, for daily routine, or what most people would consider normalcy.

If “routine” was imposed upon her, she would, very quickly become hysterical, with her behaviour appearing totally unreasonable (to others), but perfectly reasonable to her, within her own perception of reason.

Avril had also her own routines and patterns, becoming “irrationally” upset if anyone tried to alter them.

Avril  has a wealth of  knowledge in many areas, which she has not learnt from her current short life; an inner knowing, which if channelled will bring her a very full, successful, satisfying life, again within her own perception, for success and failure are of course, only measured within our own expectations; personal, not Universal.

Avril is a joy, a very special child who if understood, flourishes and blooms like an exotic flower.

If Avril has a “problem”, it lies with others, and their expectations and perceptions, for to realise one’s own potential, is as stated, totally individual.

What we as therapists and  questing human beings need  do, is  educate the human mind and brain, to allow in the knowledge of total individuality, and the awareness of the need to take each situation as it is,  working within that sphere, to help each and every child (and adult) to develop, evolve, and interact with others, on this earth plane where we live, therefore producing balanced, compassionate human beings, who are able to fulfil their potential whilst interacting with others, allowing unconditionally, others’ development also.

We need therefore to consciously open our heart and mind awareness, allowing that everything is possible if we have the key to “unlock it”;

 This in turn of course, helps us with our own development and evolution, and the understanding, dealing with and releasing of our own “issues”; however, and in whichever part of ourselves we carry them.

There is then I reiterate, no set “pattern” or method, for dealing with an Autistic child, or indeed any given child or adult  with a specific problem or situation.

If we keep our minds open, and allow the essence and ethos of each individual situation to become clear to us, we will then realise what each unique situation requires, and will be able to put this structure into place, and help others to do so also; we are then halfway to being balanced happy human beings.

Avril is now seven years old, and in the six months leading up to her seventh birthday, she has become more at peace with herself, and more communicative, largely due to the efforts and achievements of her mother, in getting other people, i.e. teachers, specialists etc, to acknowledge that Avril is special and in some ways different, in the ways she needs to be related to and taught.

This acknowledgement seems to have been the springboard which was needed for Avril to go forward in her own truth.

This factor will not be the key to every child’s situation, and we must, as previously stated look very carefully in an unbiased way, for the key to unlock individual minds, allowing them to free themselves.

Avril continues to make progress, and is happier than I have ever seen her; she is a joy to communicate with, for she sees on many levels, and is secure in the knowledge that this is accepted and encouraged within her immediate close circle of life, enabling her to project outwards with inner confidence and joy.

This acceptance of a child, and the allowance of it being itself, is the first step in learning to work with these gifted children.

The wonderful qualities and abilities of an Autistic child are considerable, and if channelled correctly, can teach us all an enormous amount.

If we can open our minds to the awareness and knowledge of children (and adults) who can access different levels of energy being at will, the possibilities for our own personal growth are infinite; if we can look upon their situation as a gift, not a problem, then our evolvement holds no bounds.

These children are a Universal gift to us all, and for this tremendous gift they make “no charge”, but think of the “price” they pay, for coming here to teach and lead us all.

It is phenomenal, and for this we are truly grateful.

Avril
