In my arduous and extensive quest for recovery from narcissistic abuse, I chose to embark on a journey with the Narcissistic Abuse Recovery Program or NARP as its referred to. This commitment led me to dedicate a substantial five years to doing the 'modules' and 'shifts'. I had very eagerly enrolled in the highly touted NARP course, anticipating solace and empowerment for victims of abuse and trauma. The initial stages of the course seemed like a beacon of hope, with magical and miraculous changes unfolding around me. I was hooked, enthralled by the promising transformations that appeared to be taking place. Ironically, in the context of a narcissistic abuse recovery course, it felt akin to being 'love bombed' by the results – an overwhelming and euphoric experience. Little did I realize that, as with love bombing and narcissistic abuse, the trajectory of my journey with the course was far from sustainable.
As the supposed miracles continued, the course encouraged me to keep working the modules, promising even greater changes and transformations. The initial hit of positive change fueled my commitment, and over the course of five years of active participation, I found myself consistently investing more time and energy sometimes even forsaking my vocational and relational obligations in pursuit of an elusive goal. However, akin to the manipulative tactics employed in narcissistic relationships, the goalposts kept shifting, and I found myself trapped in an endless loop of meeting catastrophe over catastrophe in all sizes, shapes and form.
Regrettably, what initially appeared as a genuine path to recovery became a perilous descent into the unknown. The deceptive nature of the course, coupled with my increasing commitment over these five years, only served to deepen the metaphorical grave I unknowingly dug for myself. The promised enlightenment turned into a mirage, and the miraculous changes I witnessed early on proved to be an illusion.
For individuals of Christian or Catholic faith contemplating this course, a heightened sense of caution is imperative. The spiritual undertones of NARP, while not explicitly anti-religious, may clash with or challenge core beliefs. The course's unwitting connection to the demonic, as revealed through unsettling experiences, creates a potential conflict with deeply held religious values. I highly recommend looking up this informative video titled "A Guru or Jesus Father Joseph-Marie Verlinde" on a YouTube channel called "CheminNeuf NetforGod", which sheds light on why Catholics and Christians should exercise caution with new age practices, even if not directly related to the course. The video provides valuable insights into the potential spiritual risks associated with such endeavors.
While this review may have a religious inclination, I extend a cautionary note to individuals in the new age or occult communities. Engaging with unseen forces, as experienced through this course, can have lasting repercussions, potentially affecting not only the individual but also reverberating through three or four generations down the line. Abusing your soul is a serious matter, and the consequences may extend far beyond what one might anticipate. Regardless of your spiritual or religious background, exercise prudence, prioritize your well-being, and remain vigilant against the deceptive forces that may hide within seemingly promising facades. Remember, there is no free lunch in the pursuit of 'quantum', 'energy healing' and or similar endeavors, and the cost may be more significant than one is willing to bear. Approach with care, and be aware of the potential far-reaching impacts on both your present and the future.
