​What is Past Life Regression?

Past life regression is a gentle form of hypnosis that allows someone to go back to earlier lifetimes to retrieve memories, see patterns and gather information about events that may be impacting life today.  ​
                Do you wonder why you are drawn to certain people or types of people?
                               Do you wonder why you do the things you do or why certain situations affect you?
                                             Do you sometimes meet people and feel like you have known them forever?

The subconscious mind knows everything about us from our current life and all our past lives.  Many of the details get lost when we try to bring them forward to our conscious mind because our lives are so busy and full of detail.  Through hypnosis, I can take you into a trance state that is deeply quiet and peaceful where it is easier to locate and retrieve these memories held in your subconscious.  We go back through time to the life that is most beneficial to what you are searching for and you can see how it unfolds to answer questions, explore or just to satisfy some curiosity.
Past Life Regression can help you to:
  • learn about who you were, what you liked and who was around you.
  • gain an understanding of patterns, learning where and why they started and how you benefitted from them.
  • explore unresolved emotions, which have carried through into this lifetime, creating fears of beliefs which you haven't been able to explain.
  • release karmic patterns and attachments and heal unfinished business you have brought forward to this life.
  • gain awareness of the key lessons learned in previous lives.
Past Life Regression can be part of current life therapy.  The memories and experiences can be used to understand and breakthrough your current challenges by removing blocks and shifting perspective.
I had always had a strange fear of drowning I didn't understand. While it didn't stop me from doing the things I loved, I was curious where it developed.  I did a Past Life Regression and discovered I was a 7 year old boy named Jack (weirdly, that is what my daughter's name was going to be if she were a boy).  It was around 1935 and we lived near a lake.  I was skating with my family on the frozen lake.  
My Dad, 2 brothers and my sister were there.  I went skating further away than my Dad wanted me to go.  I could hear him yelling at me that I had gone too far and it wasn't safe.  I was too close to the shore and the ice wasn't thick enough.  ​
Sure enough, I fell in.  (It was a strange sensation and I felt like my present self, Jodi, was watching a movie, and I was scared.)  I went under the ice and was swimming around.  My feet were very heavy because of my skates and I couldn't find the hole in the ice to get back out.  I could see my family on the ice trying to find me.  I knew they weren't going to get me out and I felt myself sink in the water and drift away.  I drowned.  (It wasn't traumatic to watch as my present day self.  I had a strange detachment from it, like still watching a movie.) ​
What did I learn from experiencing that life?  I now understood my strange fear of drowning and it made sense to me. It was something I had brought forward from my life as Jack.  Now, I had something to work with to change my beliefs in my present life. I also learned about the souls who were connected to me in that life.​
​My Dad in Jack's life is, my present day Uncle, the Uncle I have always felt closest too and the one who I looked up to.  He has taught me a lot of life lessons and now I understood our connection.
​My sister in Jack's life is my daughter Brooklyn in my present life.  Brooklyn has been with me in most of the past lives I have seen. It explains our connection and the deep understanding we have of each other.
Every past life I have seen has taught me something.  Sometimes there is a huge connection to something I am experiencing now and sometimes it is about the people and souls I am connected to.  Sometimes, it is just about learning more about myself, where I have been and what I have experienced.

Past Life Regression does not always have to be about therapy.  It can just be simply about being curious and exploring the mysterious and magical idea of other lives.  These sessions are longer and for exploration and entertainment purposes only.
