What is
Past Life Regression?
.
Past Life Regression, (also known as
“past life therapy,” or “regression therapy”), is based upon the premise that
weare eternal beings who carry forward learning and experiences from one
lifetime to another. As eternal souls, we experience physical life on
Earth in a series of human bodies/personalities. On a soul level, we
choose each life as a means of learning and evolving. We unconsciously carry
forward experiences, emotions, attitudes and relationship dynamics from
previous lives into our current lifetime. Many times this is beneficial, as in
cases where we just have a "knack" for something, or seem to master a
situation or a new skill or area of study as if we already knew it. Other
times traumatic experiences such as a violent death or loss of a loved one are
left unresolved, relationships are left unhealed, situations and circumstances
may be left not understood. The emotions associated with these events can be
carried forward into our current life and have a detrimental affect on
it. Trauma and issues from past lives can be triggered by events in our
current lifetime without our conscious awareness. We might react to people and
situations in ways that seem out of character or counter-productive, or we may
find ourself "gridlocked" in a problem that we just can’t seem to
resolve no matter what we try. This is because the problems we experience
in this life are actually rooted in the dynamics set up in prior
personalities/lifetimes.
With Past Life Regression the therapist guides the client
through significant events of the past life, through the death experience,
and then a "life review." The purpose of that lifetime and the
lessons learned or indeed not learned are examined from a higher perspective. Issues
are traced to where the original activating event occurred to bring the “memories”
into conscious awareness. By re-experiencing the key events of a past life and
understanding what is most significant about that life in terms of our current
personality and situation, we can resolve issues and experiences (from the past) that are keeping us
“stuck” or are blocking our progress and happiness now, release or diffuse the
emotional blockages, bring closure to the events of that lifetime and find
completion.
Some people believe we only live one human lifetime. In this case, the “stories” elicited by
this therapeutic approach serve as marvelous symbolic metaphors for the issues
and situations being faced in the present time, therefore being equally effective in resolving
current issues.
The regression technique can also be used to access early
childhood memories from the current lifetime that may be underlying present-day
problems and issues.
