Meanwhile, on stage, the drama goes on…
A regression made with a competent hypnotherapist will take us to two different places.
I believe that past life regression should be a compulsory part of every school curriculum worldwide. It should be considered as important as reading and writing! I believe that everyone should have had two or three regressions by the time they’re eighteen. This might sound a bit unexpected and a bit extreme, I know. But imagine for a moment the impact this experience would have on everyone’s tormented teenage years. And on everyone’s adult life after that. A regression made with a competent hypnotherapist will take us to two different places. One is our past lives, and that is already enough to put everything back into perspective; and the other one is the “place” for lack of a better word, between our lives. Backstage. There’s always some “space” between our lives, where we go back to our Source, our home if you will, where we recharge our batteries, reflect on what we’ve learnt, talk to our guides – yes, we all have guides – and prepare for the next life.
Once we see the place we all come from and remember what it feels like to be there, nothing in this life will scare us anymore.
Over here, we’re in an exciting, interactive video game, and of course, we want to survive, and score as high as possible, we want to win, we want to get better at it, have fun. We swear and sweat a lot, we get carried away, we get very passionate about it. And then, when the game is over, we simply take off our Virtual Reality headset and go back to this wonderful, luminous, happy place.
Now, exactly as it is true for our life on Earth, our soul goes through ages and stages too. Some souls are living their first few lives over here, some souls have been around for thousands of years and have gathered a huge amount of experience. We can get impatient and judgemental towards younger souls when we don’t know that we’re talking to a “child”. But when we are aware of the fact that souls are of different ages, we become a lot more patient and understanding.
We wouldn’t get mad at a three-year-old because they are not contributing to solving the environmental crisis. We know they’re only three years old, so we will appreciate their intelligence, we’ll support their growth, we’ll praise them for every little step forward. We will simply love them, knowing that over the next 40 years they might become great scientists or psychologists.
Exactly the same applies to young souls, with the big difference, that a young soul will live in a mature body at some stage… They’re young and inexperienced, and they’re scared, that’s why they are, for example, immature politicians, or friends, or bosses, or parents. When we’re aware of the fact that they are young, we won’t judge them too harshly or blame them for the things they do because we know that if they were able to do better, they would! We shouldn’t take offence at a young child’s behaviour, unless we’re young children ourselves.
But then, of course, we should make sure they cannot access the kitchen drawer with the big knives! That would be common sense, not lack of love. We should love all small children, cheer them on, and keep them safe – and ourselves safe from them.
If we’re a bit older now, let’s not forget the times when we were young too. And if we’re young, we should be able to rely on support from the ones who have been there before us. I’m hoping the time will come soon, where everyone will be aware of their real “age” and able to guess everyone else’s. When everyone will understand who they really are, understand that everyone else is going through the same process and might just be at a different stage, that every life is a facet in every soul’s and in the whole of humanity’s journey.
That’s unconditional love, and it leaves no space for fear. Understanding this, and learning to apply it to every area of our lives is, I believe, the biggest priority and challenge for humanity right now.

If you’re already familiar with the things I’m talking about in this article, you’ll probably agree with me, when I say that remembering our past lives would be a powerful remedy against fear and all forms of violence and abuse. If this is the first time you’re coming across these concepts, you might want to learn more about all of them. Or you might be wondering whether I’m completely mad and if there are other weirdos out there, talking about this stuff.
If you’re new to all of this, I would suggest you start with the book “Many Lives, Many Masters” by Brian Weiss. That’s the fascinating report on how a very skeptical, scientifically minded psychiatrist stumbled upon past life regression. The experience profoundly changed his outlook on life and his professional path, as well as many other people’s lives. If you enjoy this book, I suggest you choose his “Only Love Is Real” as a second read.
And then, if you want to go further, you’re good to read Michael Newton’s incredible book “Journey of Souls”, followed by his “Destiny of Souls”.
Maybe after that, you’ll want to check out the Newton Institute, subscribe to their quarterly newsletter, and who knows, perhaps find one of their certified therapists in your part of the world and have a look into the journey of your own soul.

There are many obstacles to overcome before we become more tolerant and compassionate, as you hope in your wonderful post. Prejudice is everywhere, working hard to divide us into different belief systems: Relgious. Political. Socio-Economic etc. Funny but in a lot the science fiction out there, the world has solved all of these problems and is one civilization. In actuality we are one civilization…we are all earthlings. Now if only we could start living that, what a wonderful world it would be.
Yes exactly! That’s why I hope – and believe – that concepts like passports, and citizenships, and castes, and classes, and orders, and all the social divisions will disappear sometime in the future. At some stage, they will make no sense anymore. Can’t you see that I’m a human from this planet? So why do I need papers to justify my existence and be allowed to move around the place where I was born? And why should other humans like me have the authority to grant or deny me these papers? But as you say, that’s likely to take a little bit more time…
Simona, welcome to the group! This is such a powerful and insightful read. I personally found these theories hard to wrap my head around till I had my own past life regression; and it is everything you described. Thank you for giving us all an opportunity to dive a little deeper into the possibility of parallel universes! #pastlife #choices
Thank you so much Carolyn! I understand, i come from a totally materialistic, scientific-minded, positivist background, where all of this sounds like you’re on heavy drugs… But when I started reading and understanding and seeing for myself, a long series of experiences and intuitions I’d had since childhood, suddenly started to make sense. And so did that little quantum physics my mind is capable of grasping. It was like a switch was flicked. I now divide my life so far into before and after. The before is like cartoons in black and white, the after is like a 3D movie with goggles on…
Wow! Simona, this really had me thinking on another plain of consciousness. We make choices in a split second, in one particular choice, does that mean the other one was actually planned out ready too? The 1989 movie ‘Sliding Doors’ with Gwyneth Paltrow addresses this phenomenon. ‘What if one split second sent your life in two completely different directions?’ Almost a parallel universe. Certainly thought provoking. Quite scary! When someone is hypnotized, do they sometimes speak a foreign language fluently? I have heard of this. Really interesting article, Simona. W
It’s so fascinating, Simon. Sometimes it’s a matter of a split second as you say; sometimes it can be decisions that take us years to make; sometimes it can be making no decision, which I believe, is a choice too… And everyone of them is possible and has the potential to unfold. There’s no right or wrong decision, I think. Any road we will take can get us to where we need – not necessarily want – to go. Some will be bumpier, and some smoother for sure!
Yes, I’ve read about people speaking foreign languages that were their own at some other stage. And I remember a scene, I’m not sure if it was from Brian Weiss, where a Chinese lady went to the session with an interpreter. She then got taken back to a life where she was American, and suddenly started speaking perfect English. The interpreter started automatically translating back into Chinese before he realised what was going on and almost fainted 🙂
Thank you Simona for this fascinating, thought-provoking piece, and welcome again to BizCatalyst. As a hypnotherapist, I do not do past life regression, nor have I ever seen someone spontaneously revert to another time. Saying that, as with many things, I am not adverse to the possibility of having other lives. For me, however, after this life, I hope to go to another life which is not earthly. I liken my life to BlackJack. I am ahead so I will leave the table now.💖
Thank you so much Darlene. I can totally relate to what you’re saying! I’m hoping to cram everything I still need to do into this life, and make it my last too. But that’s how I feel now. Who knows what I’ll want and need, and what I’ll agree to do, when the time comes to get ready for the next one… Still, I’m with you there. Much as I deeply love this planet and this life, I’ve been longing for something less earthly for the best part of it!
Simona, Its was amazing reading your article and it echoed in my heart….
I know there are people around me who “I’ allow to be, so that lessons can be learnt; I carry bleeding scars on my soul for perhaps I invited the wounds….. Then all of a sudden I meet someone with a beautiful soul and this song churns out from the pit of my stomach:
Past lives couldn’t ever hold me down – Lost love is sweeter when it’s finally found – I’ve got the strangest feeling – This isn’t our first time around !
( I have seen myself in two Lifestimes in a Past Life Regression- always fighting on battlefields for pride and dignityu of countries…and in this one I chose to face waging wards from near and dear ones, invoking closings…for may i have hurt them in another) !
I love this, Minku. It’s so important to become aware of what we’re here to do. It can happen to us that we just wander through life for some time, reacting to everything that happens to us, and wonder why it’s happening. And if we see no reason for things, it can be overwhelming. But when we start to see where we’re coming from and where we need to go, it all starts to make sense. I believe we came here with a purpose. And of course, we need to complete quite a few tasks on the way, some of which are closings, as you say. Beautiful!
Beautiful essay, Simona. I’m very much “on your page,” so to speak. I have had past live regressions and have learned details that have helped to explain the way I live in this world. I fully believe that when we incarnate our soul has signed a contract. Members of our soul family agree to play certain roles. I know my ex-husband agreed to play the villain in my life and because of this, I learned a ton (mostly very hard-earned lessons). I know I taught him as well.
Thank you Carol! Yes, I fully agree with everything you say. Sometimes we’ll have a few members of our soul family over here, sometimes just one, and I’ve read reports from people who decided to come over here on their own. So far, I only met one soul of my own bunch – my ex-husband too 🙂 but not as a villain. And another soul I already shared at least one life with, who’s my husband now as I mention in the article, but he’s from a different family. It was amazing getting a confirmation of this feeling I had long before I knew anything about past life regression. And oh yes, we do learn so much from each other…
Thank you for this profound and comprehensive article, Simona! You took a very deep dive into the topic, that I’m sure will be useful for many people. Great to have you writing for the community!
Thank you so much for your kind words Maria ❤️ I think this community can do a lot for the bigger community, and I’m very happy to get a chance to contribute to something great.
