Sharing Truths with Carol
Past Lives
Ever since I can remember
Even as a child
I always had sooo many questions.
My Mom will tell you, as I sought her out with the hows, whens and whys.
How babies are born, where we come from, where we go when we die.
And an answer would soothe my soul for a short time
Until I came up with a new set of questions.
And really ... I am still the same way today.
I can remember researching religion (Christianity).
Then onto spiritual books ... starting with Life after Life by Raymond Moody
which was life altering to me, for here were my thoughts typed with paragraphs of knowledge to go with them.
Somewhere soon after was Embraced by the Light by Betty Eadie
writing about her near death experience.
After many more books and experiences:
Past Lives, Future Healing by Sylvia Brown,
where many of my missing pieces just clicked into place.
At the time just so made perfect sense to me, an aha moment.
Since I have experienced many glimpses of past lives.
Sometimes they open up when I am receiving Reiki.
Other times in Meditation.
Also during healing therapies with people that I have shared with over the years.
Pieces have also come up when I am receiving a psychic reading.
And I have had the privilege to sit in on a past life regression session.
I have come to understand why:
- I was an overprotective mother
- why I have a fear/sensitivity/awareness of depression possibly leading to suicide thoughts (people around me)
- why I had a phobia of sexual abuse scenarios when it came to my children when they were young
- why I have a fear of the destruction of fire
- why I created a spiritual center, a safe place to heal and grow for myself and to share with others
- why when I meet some people it is like I already know them
- how I can feel love for someone that I have just met. (often a time of unfinished business of a different life)
- why I am attracted to different cultures and eras.
Because I have come to understand
That I have some sort of cellular memories of past events of a different time.
A continuation of healing, learning, or even joy felt emotion.
Most often, I have come to understand that groups of us do continue to do life visits together.
Whether it be a mother, a friend, or a passerby.
The TV show Once Upon a Time on Sunday nights
A perfect example of what I am describing.
The mysteries of cell memory.
To realize that our souls are eternal.
So often health and relationship problems have roots in unresolved past lives.
From irrational fears, unexplained illnesses, to the partners we choose.
Often birthmarks are places of injuries/wounds of past lives.
Definitions
Past life regression is a form of therapy in which the subject is hypnotically regressed to a previous life.
Typically the therapist (a trained hypnotist) discusses with the client what they wish to accomplish.
Past-life regression work is largely focused on forgiveness. In this way, the hurts of the past can be healed. It is important that the hurts are forgiven but that the lessons are retained. In this way, the hurt can be avoided in the future. Thus, the past holds the keys to unlock the future. It is important that all hurts be forgiven - those associated with others and those associated with us, as individuals. Forgiveness work is an important factor in the soul lessons from past lives.
How can a Past Life Regression help you?
- Gain a deeper understanding of who you are and why you are here
- Discover how the past holds the key to unlock your future
- Heal a pattern in your present life relationships that originates in a past life
- Rediscover past life gifts and talents and integrate them into this lifetime
- Heal present emotional and physical problems by healing the past
- Discover this life's lessons and purpose when communicating with your past life self
So I encourage you
To continue your life research and connect to knowledge that hold answers for you.
And if past life work interests you ...
