The first rule of thumb I use is: Do Past Life Regression when asked to. Its as simple as that. People ask for it for all sorts of reasons spiritual growth, getting in touch with the depth of themselves, curiosity, physical symptoms or emotional problems, irrational fears and phobias, understanding relationships or talents, life purpose, etc.

Sometimes, though, a person may present a problem, and self-diagnose that the problem originated in a past life. Be cautious in this case. You can tell them that the problem may or may not have originated from a past life, but that together you can find out. Give them the option of starting by exploring a past life, which may possibly be the cause of their problem; or by focusing directly on the cause of their problem, which may also lead to a past life. Be clear with the person that their choice may influence what they get from the session. This way, client and therapist can make an informed decision together.

You can suggest exploring past lives as a solution to problems when you have the sense that someone is open to that avenue and you have already explored other alternatives. I get the sense of a persons religious or spiritual beliefs from my Client Intake Form where there is one line asking for Religion. A lot of people who I have worked with put spiritual on that line, or they simply leave it blank. At their first appointment, Ill briefly talk with them about their spiritual/religious outlook, to get a sense if they are open to Past Life Regression or not.

This sense of their beliefs can also help me guide them when spontaneous past life recall occurs. When a client in trance receives spontaneous information about a past life or reincarnation, it could be confusing for them if it does not fit with their existing belief system. We can use specific language to address these clients, resolve charged energy, and release trauma, by using the language of imagination, rather than calling it a past life.

One day, a middle-aged woman Ill call Sally came to see me. She worked in a casino as a dealer. She felt stuck. She had a sense that there was more that she could do and be, but she didnt know what it was. In order to have a sense of clarity and direction to move forward, she decided to have a hypnotherapy session.

Sally acknowledged that she had always had a wonderful imagination. Inside my mind I am still childlike, said Sally, and she seemed to like it that way.

Her childlike mind took us
spontaneously to the 19th century, in
Mississippi, where a woman named Mary was a published author. There was an initial confusion as Sally felt that she was the woman. For the whole session, I encouraged her to continue to imagine this, and see where your imagination in hypnosis can take us. In this imagination, you can speak as if you are Mary. The imagination from your unconscious mind will eventually give us a key to unlock your purpose and talent, so that we can gain clarity and the direction moving forward as Sally.
