  • Have you ever been drawn to a certain place or time in History?

  • Have you ever met someone for the first time and felt that you have met before?

  • Have you a fear or phobia, and you’re not sure where or when it started?

  • Do you have unexplained aches & pains?

  • Do you have recurring dreams/nightmares that have nothing in common with your present life?

  • Have you ever had de ja vu?

  • Do you have an unusual birthmark?

  • Do you seem to be following a pattern in your life that you find hard to break away from?

If some of these are true for you, then it is quite  likely that these have come from a past life.

As a qualified Advanced Hypnotherapist I have been practising Past Life Regression for a number of years, in addition to conventional hypnotherapy.  Past Life Regression can work for everyone, the important thing is to be open to it and enjoy the benefits that it can bring.  People come for Past Life Regression for many different reasons. The main ones are:

THERAPY - Our character today, represents a culmination of all the experiences we have had over numerous lifetimes..

Past life events can affect many aspects of our behaviour, and in some cases, past deep emotional traumas can cause psychological problems, which can not be cured with ordinary psychotherapy. Clients are able to relive and resolve scenes and conflicts from the past that have been distorting their mental, emotional and physical well being. As we return to life over and over, unresolved memories are re-created, often making little sense in the context of the present life and keeping us from living peaceful lives. They emerge as obsessions, recurring relationship problems, nightmares, anger, depression, sadness, panic attacks and unexplained physical pains.

A migraine, chronic lower back pain or knee problem may be telling a story from an old accident or wound. A chronic sore throat may derive from strangling, hanging or choking. Regression Therapy works with the physical and spiritual residues from our present or past lives, which may be at the root of our present problems. It transforms them in a way that is both safe and structured Past Life therapy can release these repressed thoughts and traumas and bring about a beneficial change.  Length of therapy is individual to each person, this is discussed at the first session.

UNDERSTANDING - Exploring your past lives offers a whole new dimension to the understanding of your own character. You suddenly realize for the first time why you are drawn to certain places or have a particular interest or skill in something, or why you have certain behaviours.   So who you are now, can be strongly influenced by who you were before, your very character carved by experiences both in other lives and in this life.

REINCARNATION: The belief that we return to this world many times in order to experience and evolve. I personally believe that this is the only concept that can explain all the experiences that I have dealt with during many hours of regression therapy.

GENETIC MEMORY: A theory suggesting that our memories are passed on from one generation to another through the cell structure or DNA. This however does not explain why people regress back to different cultural backgrounds.

FANTASY: Are we just making it all up? I do get asked this occasionally. There are many cases that can be documented through historical research, which can prove the accuracy of the information, far beyond the chances of random imagination.  One that certainly comes to mind is a Dr Bloxham, who regressed several people, in the 1980's, and recorded the sessions for viewing; these were later researched and were found to be actual people, in the year stated and the areas they lived etc.  I believe you can still get the book on these.

SOUL MEMORY: The idea that people can access the memory of another soul, through the ‘Akashic’ records - the spiritual record of everything that has ever happened. This can be quite acceptable to some, but it doesn’t account for the continuity of character traits which seem to pass from one life to another.

It's often said that we have to work through bad karma that we may have accumulated from other past lives.

KARMA - The four aspects of Karma are: Cause and Effect, Compensation, Balancing and Completion.  Through different lifetimes we work through our karmic cycle in order to attain perfection of the soul, which is trapped within five different lower planes. Only when we reach a higher plane are we able to move forward to the next level.

The Five Lower Planes are as follows: The physical plane - this is where you and I are right now. It is also known as the Earth Plane - at this level the body is a physical one and a large amount of karma can be added or erased at this level.

The next plane up is the Astral Plane where the body takes a less materialistic form as, for example with ghosts. We go here immediately following death.

The Causal Plane is higher than the Astral Plane and is where the Akashic Records are kept. These records are a complete file on all our past, present and future lifetimes and a medium or clairvoyant may project themselves to this Plane in order to give you a reading.

The Mental Plane is the plane of pure intellect and this Plane is followed by the

Etheric Plane where truth and beauty are the ultimate values.

Before each incarnation we are given choices to help us to develop. For instance, if we need to develop intellectually in order to progress, we would select to live on the Mental Plane - if beauty and honesty were the virtues we needed to cultivate most, then our choice would probably be to live on the Etheric Plane, and so on.

If we are mistrustful of people or find it impossible to communicate effectively in this lifetime - we may decide to work on these issues in the future - thus, relationships will be a very important factor for you.

It is possible that all the people who are, or have been, important to you in this lifetime, will have also been involved with you in one way or another in past or subsequent lifecycles. When we examine inter-relationships in this way it is often referred to as 'Group Karma'. When we hate someone intensely we attach a Negative Karma to our lifecycle. This must be worked through at a later time in order to evolve spiritually.

On dying we Step Into The Light where our arrival is telepathically communicated to all our departed loved ones, who may choose to welcome us. Guides and Masters are there to advise us and accompany us to the Soul Plane, which lies between the Five Lower Planes and the Seven Higher Planes. Entities that do not step ‘Into The Light’ may become Earthbound as Astral Bodies or Ghosts.

Past Life Regression can be used in many ways to help the Karmic process. Visiting former lifetimes and seeing the mistakes that you keep on making, can often be quite an eye-opener. You notice that you're still making the same mistakes in this lifetime and this revelation has the effect of making you more consciously aware of what you are doing. And of course, once you're consciously aware of the mistakes you've been making, you're more able to rectify them.

INTEREST - Many enjoy the experience of tracing their past lives purely from the point of curiosity. Certain past existences in particular can be pieced together with great detail, producing names, dates and places. Many of these details have been researched and authenticated, resulting in some fascinating literature on the subject. These are one session only, if coming purely for interest.

TAKE THE TRIP OF MANY LIFETIMES

When experiencing past life regression (PLR), you are led back to a different time, using relaxation and visualisation techniques, your mind is aware and awake. Your eyes are closed and you can either see, feel or sense that you are in a different time and place. You are able to talk and answer questions about your experience.

A good subject is anyone with good concentration who is willing to accept and follow suggestions.   Sessions take approximately one and half hours to two hours.   All sessions are taped, if you wish to do any research, as well as for interest.

Always exciting, fascinating, healing, very enlightening.  So why not give me a ring or email me for an informal chat, about past lives and how it may help you.  Group work available on request. Maximum up to 6 people, only.

Regardless of personal beliefs, Past Life Regression can work for everyone, so the important thing is to be open to it and enjoy the benefits that it brings.
