Past life regression (PLR) therapy is a good way of healing past life traumas and to better understand our present life. It is a process that can be easily done by using hypnosis to achieve a trance like state where a person is able to remember past lives. In this process they are fully aware of what they saying, aware of their surroundings and what they feel, smell, touch, see and hear in the lives they visit.
Research shows that people with chronic health issues that have no known origin like phobias, falling pregnant and diseases have been helped with PLR. It is also helpful to people having a string of bad luck. Those trying to figure out what to do with their life or are interested in knowing if they brought gifts from previous lives, like healing and intuition – can get the answers they seek with PLR.
Not all PLR sessions are about the trauma, many have experienced happiness, fulfillment, love and success. This can be very inspiring and encourages a person to strive to live a life of abundance in their present life.
Signs that you have had past lives include déjà vu—the feeling that you have met a person before or have visited a place previously. Dreams that seem so real it feels as if you actually lived them could be a part of an old life memory coming to the surface.
Respected American psychiatrist, hypnotherapist and author who specializes in PLR, Dr Brian Weiss, said talents and abilities, likes and dislikes, and attractions can also be clues to past lives. You might feel yourself being drawn to certain people or certain cultures, even if you've never seen or experienced them, he said. Adding that some may find they are able to learn certain subjects or prepare for a profession more easily than others. For example, a particular foreign language might come quicker to you, while others are more difficult, said Weiss. Weiss raised an important point about souls – he said it is very common for souls to travel through different lives with the same group of souls. He calls these groupings, soul mates or soul companions, or soul families. We seem to learn our spiritual lessons and accumulate or resolve our karma with our soul groups. Relationships may change from life to life, but the souls are the same, said Weiss.
It is important to note that not everyone can be regressed, sometimes we need to fix issues in this life before we can go back to previous ones. The soul guides the journey - you go back to a life or an earlier phase of your present life because there is a lesson to be learnt from it.
Past life regression has helped many people. A regression always gives you clarity, strengthened belief there is indeed a higher being and that death is only an end of a chapter. The soul’s story continues until it attains moksha (enlightenment).
