Most of us carry patterns, fears, and habits that feel hard to explain. Maybe you’ve struggled with the same type of relationship dynamic, or you have a strong reaction to something without knowing why. While talk therapy and self-reflection can help, sometimes the roots of these experiences live deeper in the subconscious mind. This is where Past Life Regression (PLR) comes in.
What is Past Life Regression?
Past Life Regression is a therapeutic technique that uses deep relaxation (similar to meditation or hypnosis) to access memories and imagery stored in the subconscious mind. These memories often show up as vivid scenes, emotions, or impressions that feel like they come from another time.
From a psychological perspective, you can think of it as a way of giving the subconscious mind a “language” to express unresolved experiences or stored emotions. Whether these stories are truly past lives or symbolic representations, they often reflect patterns that are highly relevant to your current life.
How Can Past Life Regression Help With Healing?
Our brains are wired to create patterns. It’s how we learn and survive. But when patterns are tied to old fear or trauma, they can hold us back. Past Life Regression can help by:
Bringing subconscious patterns to light – Making hidden fears, behaviors, or triggers easier to understand.
Processing emotions in a safe way – Allowing the brain to revisit experiences in a controlled, guided state where healing can happen.
Creating space for change – Once the subconscious has acknowledged the story or memory, it no longer has to keep replaying it.
Even if you don’t fully believe in past lives, many people find that the imagery and emotions that arise are powerful metaphors that make sense of long-standing struggles.
How I Approach Past Life Regression in My Practice
With my background in meditation, I guide clients into a relaxed, focused state where the subconscious mind is more open. During the regression, we explore the experiences or imagery that surface, and I help you connect the dots to your current patterns or challenges.
The style of PLR that I focus on is BQH - a branch of QHHT that originated with renowned Dolores Cannon.
Afterward, I incorporate Reiki to support integration. Think of it as giving your nervous system and energy body a “reset” after we’ve uncovered and processed what the subconscious has shared. Clients often describe this as the moment they feel grounded, calm, and lighter, like something has finally lifted.
What to Expect in a Session
We'll start our sessions with a deep insight session where we talk through your past, present, future plans, health, dreams, and everything in between.
We'll set an intention for our session and draft a list of questions for your subconscious, guides, and past lives.
You’ll then be guided into a calm, meditative state.
I’ll help you explore the most relevant past life (or subconscious story) that comes forward for your healing.
Afterward, we’ll discuss your experience and connect it to your current life.
We’ll close with Reiki to release residual tension and support balance.
Overall, PLR sessions can take 3-4 hours.
Is Past Life Regression Right for You?
If you’ve been feeling stuck in certain patterns, searching for deeper understanding, or wanting to move through emotional blocks, Past Life Regression can be a powerful tool. By combining the science of the subconscious mind with mindful integration and energy work, it creates both clarity and healing.
Here are some common focus points for session intentions.
• Life path or purpose
