What is Past Life Regression?

Past life regression is an extremely controversial hypnotherapy technique used to recover memories from previous experiences. Hypnotherapists mainly use the technique to help those with mental illnesses. Some believe that reverting to a past state of mind from a presumably former life can help patients target specific fears, hopes, and dreams.

Regression is a common hypnotherapy used today; however, the past life regression technique has considerable risks that challenge its ethicality. There’s no scientific evidence supporting the reincarnation hypothesis the technique is based on. Also, there’s a significant risk that false and harmful memories could be implanted in the patient during the process. Because of these risks, many physicians prefer to use cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help patients tackle traumas and phobias.

Even so, it can still be fun to “travel back in time” and discover who you may have been in a past life. Imagining or exploring a past career could help you uncover why you have certain traits, hobbies, or interests. Who knows? Past life regression may help you connect with your true self and move forward in your current life.
