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.

You can start off your past lives journal by making a list of likes and dislikes, foods, places and cultures you seem particularly attracted to and other such details about yourself. Any talents you seem to possess without having had to practice should be noted; basically, everything which makes you who you are should be here; this will help you to identify patterns later on as you add to the journal.

You should also write down any details from your dreams which seem relevant. As you do this though, remember that your dreams will also contain a lot of things which are drawn from your life in the present.

You could also try past life regression.

Often, this will mean a session with a professional past life regression therapist. These people are trained in using hypnosis to guide you through a regression experience and help you to understand the information you gain from the session. While many choose to go to a professional, self-hypnosis may also work for you.

Meditation is another method of finding out more 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.

If you are new to the practice, meditation may feel much like daydreaming; but the images and other information receives about past lives as you meditate can be accurate and valuable. You should write down everything about your experience in your past lives journal so you can compare this against the rest of your notes.

Many people find meditation aids like a mandala or other focal point, incense, music or other accompaniments to be helpful. There are also recordings you can use including water sounds and other soothing audio, as well as guided meditation tapes.

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.

As with meditation, you need to approach past life regression with an open mind. You have to accept this as something which really can work for you and be able to accept the information which comes to you about a past life. You can learn from the mistakes of the past and ensure that your current life follows a better course.

Experts say that re-experiencing some of the events of a past life can be a powerful tool for overcoming mental blocks and giving you a better outlook towards your life and the world around you.

Once you are able to face up to mistakes you may have made in a past life, you have the opportunity to avoid repeating these mistakes. This information can help you to improve your life and make your world a better place.

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. - 31521
