The Tools of Regression

---

There are many views on Past Life Regression. Mine are evidence-based on my practice as a Hypnotherapist and the clients participating in Past Life Regression sessions.  

A few facts  to be established first: 

 1. As some religions speak, we are all children of  God. We have a spirit and a soul.   Our soul is reflected in our personality. The Greek word for spirit is pneuma. It refers to the part of man that connects and communicates with God. Our mood differs from our soul because our heart is always pointed toward and exists exclusively for God, whereas our soul can be self-centered. 

2. Today's science estimates that 95 percent of our brain's activity is unconscious, meaning that most of the decisions we make, actions, emotions, and behaviors depend on the 95 percent of brain activity that lies beyond conscious awareness.  

3 . There is one physical world but billions of different internal planets. We are all in our separate theaters, witnessing entirely different shows, yet we behave as if we are in the same audience, watching the event we call life.

4. Mediums: In Spiritism and Spiritualism, the medium is an intermediary between the world of the living and the world of spirit. Mediums can listen to and relay messages from spirits.

5: WHY I WORK WITH CLIENTS IN PAST LIFE REGRESSION, 

A.  I explain the individual they are accession may very well be who they lived as in a past life.

B.  Spirt is connecting with them, showing them something they need to learn through another  life

C.  They are accessing the same ability as a Medium to connect with another soul.

D.  Regardless of how they access a Past Life, the lessons from that experience learned are for the present.  

 Past life regression therapy, therefore, assumes the reality of reincarnation. Based on this assumption, practitioners believe that various mental disorders can be treated by addressing the events that an individual went through before they were born in this life. Past-life regression practitioners use hypnosis and suggestion to promote recall in their clients, using questions designed to elicit statements and memories about the past life's history and identity. B Bridging techniques are used from a client's current-life problem to bring "past-life stories" to conscious awareness. Clients often believe unresolved issues from alleged past lives may cause their current problems. One technique for accessing memories from a past life is detailed in a study by Nicholas P. Spanos from Carleton University, Ontario, Canada. Subjects of a study were told that they would be undergoing hypnosis and afterward told, "You are now in a different life, living in another life that you have lived before in another time. You are now reliving that other life tyou once hadin a different time." Next, after the administer asks, "What name can I call you by? Please look down and tell me what you are wearing. Describe everything you are wearing in detail. Where are you? Afterward, the subjects were to chronicle the information they could remember after regression in a past life.

We are all one; Carl Jung's psychiatrist speaks the about the collective unconscious as a form of the unconscious (that part of the mind containing memories and impulses of which the individual is unaware) common to humanity as a whole and originating in the inherited structure of the brain. He believed that human beings are connected and their ancestors through a shared set of experiences. We use this collective consciousness to give meaning to the world. The idea proposes that there is a universal version of the personal unconscious, which is shared with all other members of the human species. These shared ancestral memories, born from evolution, are called archetypes by Jung and are represented by universal themes that appear in various cultures.

However, some high-profile practitioners in the field have upheld past life regression therapy and incorporated it into their medical practice as a therapeutic technique. Perhaps the most prominent promoter of this therapeutic approach is psychiatrist Dr. Brian Weiss. In a series of bestselling books, Dr. Weiss has recommended hypnosis for patients to overcome phobias. These phobias, Dr. Weiss believes, go back to experiences from previous lives. Going back to those experiences through hypnosis, the patient confronts their fears and ultimately becomes desensitized to their original suspicions. Dr. Weiss’s therapeutic approach has gained notoriety because he initially did not believe in reincarnation. According to his testimonies, as he encountered patients who allegedly gave precise details of their past lives, Dr. Weiss changed his mind. In the public’s view, Dr. Weiss’s initial skepticism renders him some professional credibility; he came to believe in reincarnation and the efficacy of past life regressions, not due to some whacky previous religious beliefs, but rather because evidence from his medical practice led him to it. As a result, there is a high demand for them in the general population. According to some estimates, 25% of Americans believe in reincarnation.
