Past Life Regression works as a method of hypnosis that takes someone into a trance state to give them access to both the subconscious and superconscious minds. The method should be done with a trained professional who has studied techniques to manage the experience. There some important ways in which an optimal session is conducted that we’ll explore below.

How Does Past Life Regression Work?
Regression is a method utilizing hypnosis to help a subject access a memory. The subject is taken into an hypnotic trance using relaxation, suggestion, repetitive sounds, visual confusion, or other techniques to bring about a suggestive and deeply relaxed state. Past life regression is an Hypnosis related method of regression in which the accessible memory is not in this lifetime but gathers information from another life with a different body and personality.
A Typical Session
In a typical session, an interview is conducted to determine the results that the client would like to have from the session. A list of questions is composed that the client would like to have the answers to, and a list of what they’d like a healing for. I also ask about relationships with others that feel timeless. Which people in the client’s life, friends, family and acquaintances elicit a feeling like they’ve known them forever. These people often come up in the past life regression itself.
Once we’ve finished with the interview, I’ll have the client lay down. I’ll guide them into a deep relaxation just like in a Meditation. Then I’ll use an induction to take them into trance. I’ll also engage my client to answer questions. This is so they get used to the process of answering questions about what they’re experiencing. They’ll be lead back in time until they arrive at the past life that’s going to reveal the answers to the questions from the interview. I’ll lead them through that life with as much experience as can be obtained, right through the death process.
The focus meditation is designed to help your ability to gather your focus and learn to maintain it.
Depending on which technique I’m using and what the client’s objective is, I’ll take them through other steps to lead them to what’s most appropriate. When we’ve gotten what the client is after, I’ll bring them out of trance.
Is Past Life Regression Safe or Dangerous?
There’s nothing dangerous about past life regression. Let’s dispel some of the fears of past life regression:
- The fear that you’ll see something in the past that will greatly disturb you and cause a psychological break. First of all, with 95% of people, when you’re in trance, the level of clarity experienced during a session is not like it is in ordinary reality. It’s difficult to make things out with any real level of visual, audial, and kinesthetic clarity. Thus, we’re not impacted by events at a significant enough level to trigger something that extreme. Also, a good hypnotherapist will not allow you to experience your emotions deeply enough to cause a significant level of impact.
- The fear that the knowledge you’ll recover from the session will reveal some truth to you that will cause you distress. It’s important to consider that past life regression is a therapeutic process. A good hypnotherapist will not allow you to leave the session without fully assimilating and processing the experience. In Dolores Cannon’s Quantum Healing Hypnosis Technique (QHHT) method, the subconscious or superconsciousness is presenting the past lives to be examined. This part of yourself would not allow you to see or experience anything that would be devastating in any way. It is controlling the show and choosing what to present based on what you’re wanting to resolve in your life.
- The fear that you’ll in some way disrupt the timeline and cause a rift of some sort. You are only going back and observing the experience. This is a past event and you are getting the fragments from the experience that pertain to the issue that you want to resolve in the past life regression session. This is especially the case in QHHT sessions where the subconscious or superconscious is guiding the life that’s being presented.
- The fear that you’ll get stuck in the past life and not be able to return. There have never been reports of someone getting stuck in a past life and it seems highly impossible to get stuck in one. You are always somewhat aware consciously of what is going on. Nothing that the conscious mind and personality are unwilling to accept can take place.
Can Past Life Regression Heal?
There are a number of challenges that come up for people that don’t have their origin in any memorable event. People are often born with defects that are not genetically traceable. People often have fears and phobias that they recall as having always been there. I’ve met people with extreme fear of birds, fire, water, the dark, and these fears can be paralytic. Sometimes the fear and illness come out of nowhere at an adult age. These types of things can have an origin in the past. Past life regression is a great tool to find the beginning of the problem.
Healing Trauma
Consider how trauma affects someone’s life. The natural processing of emotions through the body should happen naturally by way of the internal organs. This is more of a Chinese medicine perspective. The large intestine and urinary bladder are the two gateways for processing all waste material from the body. This includes emotions the body energetically needs to let go of. When the system is overloaded with an event that is deeply emotionally charged, it causes the body’s natural processing to get overloaded. The body may store the emotion in an organ or somewhere in the muscles or fascia to be processed later. If the conditions that caused the trauma aren’t dealt with, they’ll recur. The system may continue to store the emotional energy in the same place until it gets congested and a pathology occurs. This is common in the heart and the back.
Now imagine something similar happens in a past life where an event triggers a trauma that doesn’t get resolved. If the person dies as a result of the trauma, the energy of the trauma goes into the soul sheath which travels with the soul to the next incarnation. When the soul inhabits the new body, the sheath forms into the energy blueprint of the new body. It then starts to impress on that body the energy of the previous life’s trauma. The new body starts to experience the trauma because the energy of the trauma still needs to be resolved. This is what we call karma.
All events that throw the soul out of balance need to come back into balance. The new body and personality start to exhibit reverberations of the life where the trauma began. This is at a subconscious level not detectable to the consciousness of the new personality. Sometimes, the trauma and related subconscious material doesn’t replay until the new body reaches the age of the old body at the time of its trauma.
Bringing the Trauma to Consciousness
The past life regression process can help the new body and mind remember the origin of the event that triggered the trauma. When the conscious mind becomes aware of the origin of the problem, a process can take place that corrects it. The conscious and subconscious minds will communicate the misunderstanding and bring awareness to the situation.
How Does QHHT Heal?
In QHHT, the subconscious or superconscious can be asked to perform a more profound level of healing. When there’s a physical issue that needs attention, past life regression can treat problems that haven’t been able to be treated by modern medicine. This is because medicine can’t find the origin of the problem. Many mental, emotional and physical problems can be addressed in this way. Past life regression, Life Between Lives Therapy, and QHHT can be used healing for depression, fears, phobias, pain, illnesses, diseases, relationships, trauma, and many more things.
Can Past Life Regression Be Used While On Medication?
People often ask if it can be used when they’re under the supervision of a psychiatrist and on prescription medication. This should be addressed on a case by case basis. Some medications can be highly psychoactive and may interfere with the session. Past life regression should by no means be done while the client is on intoxicants of any sort.
Can Past Life Regression Be Done Online?
The problem with doing any hypnosis online is that you don’t want to lose an internet connection that would leave the client in limbo. I only know of one incident in which a person got left in a limbo state.
My Teacher’s Experience
One of my hypnotherapy teachers used to be a stage hypnotist. Every year he would get a gig at a high school graduation ceremony and put the kids into a trance and have them do funny things. It would be a lot of fun and then he’d go home. He’d done this for quite a few years. In part of his act, he would have the kids lay down and he’d have them deep sea dive. Some of the kids he’d turn into mermaids and mermen and others into sailors. The kids would always act out in the most outrageous ways and it was fun for everyone. At about midnight, he finished the session and brought everyone out of trance, shook some hands, packed up, and went home.
At about 2am, he got a call from the principal urging him to come back to the school. One of the kids was having problems. When my teacher arrived, he found one of the kids still laying on the floor swimming and gyrating. He went over and talked to the kid who was verbally unresponsive. My teacher went through his procedure and brought the kid out of trance without a problem. The principal was surprised because he’d always considered the show to be make believe. My teacher was never invited back to the high school.
So what happened? Apparently the kid didn’t hear the procedure to come out of trance because the room was so loud with kids having fun. The issue here is that some people are more suggestible than others. Their subconscious mind is more willing to receive instruction than others. In the case of following the instructions of the hypnotist, there is a small part of the population that has a hard time exerting control over themselves. They may have difficulty resuming a natural state of awareness. I do believe that if my teacher hadn’t returned to bring the student out of trance, he would eventually bring himself out.
Challenges With Online Sessions
If while doing an online session the connection is broken, it may leave the client in a vulnerable place, especially if that moment is in the middle of a past trauma that needs to be brought to a conclusion. This may leave the client feeling incomplete. Eventually this would resolve itself but it’s not the best use of time and may take a while to get over. It could even cause a mental emotional imbalance that compounds the problem that was there to begin with until the session can be resumed.
If the hypnotherapist is adept at his practice, they will build in suggestions to the client to preempt any such problems. If this can’t be accomplished effectively, then it’s best not to do the session online. The advantage to doing the past life regression session over video is the ability for the practitioner to see the client. This creates the ability oo be able to watch the body and know how deep the client’s trance is. This is not possible over the phone and I would not suggest doing a session like that.
With QHHT, they ask their practitioners not to use their technique for online sessions. I don’t know exactly when that request went out. When I first studied with Dolores Cannon in 2011, this was not an issue at the time. I did all of my initial sessions online because many of my clients were out of state. I got my stripes before this request was made and I’ve never had any problems.
In Conclusion
Past life regression, Life Between Lives Therapy, and QHHT are all fantastic methods for providing healing and information to your life. Each method serves a slightly different purpose. Past life regression can be used to simply access a past life to get information and resolve current life conflicts. QHHT is especially good for healing and answering a lot of questions in one session. Live Between Lives is especially good for understanding more about the current life’s incarnation, why it’s designed the way it is, what lessons are being learned, and more about your soul group.
If you’re interested in a session, please use my calendar to create a consultation. We can discuss your situation and what you’d like to get out of a session.
