Past Life Regression
(PLT)

Past life therapy is a wonderful and
fascinating therapy designed, to help a person
to look at their past lives, as a way of
determining what karmic baggage they are
carrying and if they are repeating the same
patterns in each lifetime. Many of us have
illogical fears and phobias, we can’t
remember why we have them but we do.
Many phobias can be unresolved issues from
a past life.
For many years, I had a problem where
every time I went into a meditative state with
a group of people, I would start to feel like I
was being strangled and could not breathe.
From PLT I discovered that in many lifetimes I
had been burnt at the stake for being a witch.
I had the same abilities, I have in this life but
in past lives, people feared what they did not
understand. I was strangled in one life and in
two other lives, I was hung. It also explained,
why I was so scared to access my gifts in this
lifetime
PLT makes use of hypnosis during a
treatment to allow the patient to completely
relax. Hypnosis is a completely natural
relaxed state which is achieved just before
falling asleep or waking up. The mind is
completely relaxed and open to suggestion
during these periods. A more apt definition is
“Hypnosis is a state of awareness dominated
by the subconscious mind.”

Why is hypnosis valuable in past life
regression?
Hypnosis is a valuable tool in past life
regression because hypnosis allows the
patient to enter an alternative or altered
physiological state which allows them to be
more receptive to the suggestion of inner
discoveries and journeys. Also, it allows you
to be completely safe and detached during
the treatment.
During the session, the client will view two
lives and look at what happened during these
lives: who were the important people, who
influenced these lives, what were pleasant
and traumatic events. In the case of a
traumatic event, the patient will be allowed
to look at the situation from a detached point
of view and is taken through the event safely
and allowed the time to heal and forgive
people that were involved.
History
Past life therapy has been dated back to the
Fourth Century BC to doctor and philosopher
Patanjali. He taught how to recall past lives
through meditation and yoga. In the early
1920’s PLT resurfaced with Albert de Rochas,
who became one of the best-known psychic
researchers in late nineteenth century France.
