What Is Meant By A Past Regression?

By John Paul Harding

Are you familiar with the idea of past life regression? As more people come to accept the idea of reincarnation, many are interested in the idea of going back over their past lives to find out more about themselves.

One thing which can help you to get started is to keep a past lives journal. This is where you can write down your emotions and thoughts, even the most trivial which seem to be out of place with the experiences which have shaped you as a person in your present lifetime. Some of the things which seem to be of particular importance to many include fears of or attractions to specific places and things, whether or not you have ever been there or seen them for yourself; at least in this lifetime. Your journal can help you to start drawing connections and piecing together the puzzle of a past life or lives.

Your past lives journal can begin with a list of things which you like and those which you do not. These could include particular cuisines, cultures and places that you feel some sort of a bond with. Really, any details about what makes you the person you are is relevant and should be written down here. Talents, personality traits; anything which can help you make sense of your past lives and your present life belongs here and can help you to spot patterns indicative of a past life.

Your dreams may also contain some clues to your past lives - be sure to take notes on anything from your dreams which seem to belong to a previous life. However, you should keep in mind that much of the content of your dreams will come from the present.

Past life regression is another option.

This usually involves going to a trained past life regression therapist. These professionals are experienced in hypnotherapy and guiding you through a past life experience as well as helping you to make sense of the experience afterwards. Self hypnosis may also be able to help you have this experience.

Meditation is another technique which is used to learn about past lives.

For a lot of people, it is hard to induce a past life regression experience using meditation. We are often skeptical of what we receive during these experiences; but in order to make the most of your regression, you have to learn to trust your instincts and to listen to yourself.

While meditating, useful information about your past lives can come to you. You should write down everything which you experience during your meditation; this will help you to figure out which of these pieces may be tied to a former life.

For a lot of people, aids such as visual foci, music or incense are useful in achieving a meditative state. You can also try guided meditation tapes as well as recordings of relaxing sounds like gently flowing water.

You can also use binaural beats.

These are specially designed recordings which contain frequencies which are tailored to help listeners quickly reach a deep meditative state. These can be very helpful in training your mind for meditation; but whatever method you choose, make sure to meditate in a place which is quiet and where you will not be distracted from the task at hand.

You need to relax your muscles and clear your mind. When one of those thoughts of your everyday concerns comes through, simply acknowledge it and move on. It may take several tries before you can successfully meditate, but you will get there - and the answers to your questions about past lives may start coming to you.

Past life regression can even help you to cope with problems in your present life as well as give you information about the past. Some even learn that they have known the people they know now in a past life.

Reincarnation is an important part of many religions around the world. The idea of Karma found in Buddhism, Jainism and the Hindu and Sikh traditions is one which anyone interested in past lives will want to think about. The actions you take in your life determine what your next life will be like, for better or worse. Being able to learn from your past lives allows you to make your current one better.

The most important thing is to come to this experience with an open mind. You have to be able to accept information and be willing to learn from your past in order to improve the way you live now.

There are many experts in this field who say that a regression experience can be an excellent way to clear away emotional problems and remove mental blocks which prevent people from fulfilling their true potential.

Learning about past lives lets you prevent yourself from making the same mistakes all over again - and use what you learn to improve not just your own life, but the world around you.

Another benefit of regression is that you may, as have many others, discover a talent you never knew you had! Seeing yourself doing something in a past life may be a clue to a talent you need only to bring out of its latent state to share with the world.

There are many benefits which past life regression has to offer to anyone whose mind is open to the possibility that they have led other lives before. For those who are willing to listen, the past has much to teach us. - 26706
