PAST LIFE THERAPY
Are Past Lives Real?
Many people ask me whether I believe that Past Lives really exist and when I first began this work many years ago, I was still a sceptic....very aware of the psychology version that it may just be the subconscious coming up with a great metaphor to help the person understand their problems- however after conducting thousands of sessions I can honestly say now that I do believe in them. I feel that I have acquired enough evidence over the years to convince me and many other sceptics that they do exist. As`well as the incredible research from the likes of Dr Ian Stevenson who was a Psychiatry professor at the university of Virginia who collected evidence from nearly 3000 children from all over the world who were spontaneously recalling their past lives. (You can see examples of this on my video page) He was able to prove without doubt that what they were experiencing was a recall of a life they had lived before; many of them even had birthmarks that matched the cause of death from their previous incarnations. I have written about much of the evidence that I found in my book Healing with Past Life Therapy- published by Findhorn Press.
Why should you explore them?
What is more important than whether they exist or not is whether it is helpful to explore them.....many modern day spiritual teachers tell you that it is important to focus on the 'Now' and being in the present...and I agree....however what I know from my work is that if there is unfinished business, unresolved issues and karma that needs to be addressed then living in the 'Now' is not so much fun...because life will continue to bring up events and people who are reminders of the healing work you need to do; patterns may keep repeating themselves; fears keep surfacing; albeit in different ways; limiting beliefs keep getting in the way and physical problems that cannot be explained by the medical profession continue to persist......
If you feel as though you are constantly having to struggle through life and that you are feeling blocked or stuck then this type of therapeutic exploration into your past may be exactly what you need.
How does it work?
I like to think of myself as a bit of a spiritual detective....whose sole mission is to get you to a place where you are at peace both within-in your mind- and without -in your everyday world. this can only happen when you clear away any of the baggage that you may have brought with you from your other lives. This can only be accessed via the subconscious and that is where I come in; I am the guide who can bring you to the places where all the information you need is stored.
In the session you are guided into a deep state of relaxation, a light trance state that is the same as when you are daydreaming....it is easy, perfectly natural and you go into this state many times in a day.....there is nothing to be afraid of as you never lose control and you always know what is happening to you. I am just a navigator; throughout the process, a spiritual Sat Nav, if you like..and I know where you need to go- but at all times you are driving the car and can stop or change directions if you wish. In this state you are able to gain access to memories that are stored away in the deepest reaches of your mind.
The Past life sessions I do generally take around three hours; this is because I work so thoroughly. It is possible to get access to your past lives in just a couple of hours but in order to really understand the meaning behind the life and heal what needs to be healed longer sessions are essential.
What happens if you do not do the healing work that is needed?
Some therapists will take people in to their past lives just to see who they used to be but in my experience this can often be detrimental to a persons well being- when the energy of a past life is brought to the surface it uncovers all of the issues that were left undone- and this can have repercussions on a persons life. It won't do any permanent damage but may lead to feelings of unease at the unconscious level.
What happens in the session?
The longer session gives people time to establish their goals for the work and enables me to explain things clearly. The past life recall is usually similar to when you recall a holiday, you may not remember it all but key elements will jump out. Some people see things really clearly and it is as if a movie is unfolding before them....except that they are the star and they are experiencing all of the emotions and feelings that the person had; these can be good and bad. Some people do not see anything at all but they hear answers pop into their heads- when I ask certain questions- and some people just have a feeling- a knowing about what they are experiencing and there is no right or wrong way---it is different for everyone.
Once the details of the life have become clear and as much information as possible has been revealed the person moves to the end of the life. This is when they discover what the last thoughts and feelings were and this is often what is having an impact on the present life; so if there were any vows that were made or any fear, regret or anger for example- this will carry over in the energy field.
Once the life has ended- and the person leaves the body to travel to a safe space in the spirit realms- the healing part of the session begins. People are able to communicate with the people who were with them in those lives and uncover agreements and contracts that had been chosen before they came into the lifetime and find out what purpose they served; if there are any that are no longer helpful they are rewritten and new mission statements are put in their place. This has a profound effect on the persons future experiences- especially when they realise who the people from their past lives are in this lifetime; people do not look the same but they are recognisable by their personality or their energy. It becomes clear that some of the people who reconnect in lifetime after lifetime are members of the same soul group and they may be there to assist or to challenge; these new agreements can transform situations and relationships in powerful ways. In the session we also look at karmic lessons and see what, if anything, needs to be resolved to ensure that the karma is clear.
What kind of impact can a session like this have?
The session is really designed to help you gain valuable insights into your present life conditions, you relationships and the beliefs that you have about yourself; it helps explain the reasons for some of the key choices you have made in this life and this awareness helps you to move on and do things in a new way....with the greater clarity that occurs people often get a sense of their current life purpose and they feel as though they have the resources they need to make it happen.
How many sessions do you need?
One session is enough for you to get access to your past lives and to clear specific issues that you wish to deal with, it is possible that you may experience more than one life at a time, although this is not necessary. Further sessions are completely at your discretion, it depends on how much exploration you would like to make into your past and how many issues you would like to explore.
Are there any negative side effects?
Even though intense emotions may be experienced and traumatic lifetimes may emerge- the session always ends with a a person feeling relieved and unburdened. Re-living past lives in a safe and nurturing way can provide profound healing as well as healing and releasing phobias, improving relationships and enhancing physical and emotional well-being.
Do you always have to explore lifetimes that need healing?
Through repeated incarnations you may pick up negative emotions and unhelpful personal beliefs as you move forward from lifetime to lifetime in your own karmic evolution but you may also gain knowledge and valuable skills and talents which can be reclaimed once you visit your positive lives. Past life regression allows you to step into a world of self-discovery and self-awareness, and the positive insights gained from the past can be applied to the events, situations and relationships in your present life. On my media page you will find a free recording designed to take you into a positive past life- if you do have any powerful experiences listening to this please do let me know; I always love to hear peoples stories.
Can everyone access their past lives?
Your unconscious mind is the storehouse of all your thoughts, feelings, experiences and accumulated knowledge. Everything you have ever experienced and become aware of, in every lifetime, is recorded in the memory banks of your mind. Remembering your past lives is a natural process that involves two main qualities; curiosity and a comfortable and relaxing state of hypnosis. This is all that is needed to open up your memories and allow you to remember. The memories you recall will help you achieve a sense of healing in your present life.
Do people remember what happens?
You will usually remember everything from the session and it will be recorded, should you wish to get a copy it can be sent by email.
How long do the effects last for?
Sessions generally take around three hours but the healing that occurs persists for much longer; many people report that their lives are never the same again.....in the best possible way.
