Age
regression or past life regression is growing as an accepted field and
is being successfully used for many difficulties including physical,
psychological and spiritual healing. Age regression is based on the idea
that problems and conflicts that are within may have origins in past
experiences, traumas, or memories, past material that is stuck in the
unconscious mind. This would be particularly true of the birth and death
experiences, as they are very powerful transitional times. Using
regression techniques, the subject can access the memories that are
within, examining and learning from the past. Regression guides the
subject back along their own time line into past events and memories
that have connections or associations with the current situation. It
uses age, dates, and events, emotions and, even bodily sensations to
move along the subject's personal time line in order to bring the source
or origins of the issue at hand into conscious awareness.
Age regression can help improve the
quality of life, in terms of daily experiences, and on a larger scale,
in terms of the obstacles and challenges each individual must face. With
proper guidance and support, the client can focus on the positive and
release the negative, and seek a future with integrity and balance.
Past life regression moves beyond the
current life awareness and guides the journey into a previous lifetime,
a different time and place. If we take the concept of regression
and allow that there is more to us than our current physical bodies, the
possibility of pre-existence opens up. Using the regression techniques
to release and heal from the past, no matter where that past may appear
to be, allows the change in perspective that brings healing and growth.
Some may object to this method because their own private belief systems
do not allow for the possibility for past lives. However, past life
regression does not need to be viewed as a literal process in order for
it to be effective. In other words, one does not need to hold particular
belief systems or cultural backgrounds for past life regression to be as
effective as any other therapeutic method. One only needs to maintain an
open mind and allow for the possibility of the mind and body being part
of a greater whole. The product of regression may be seen as a
psychological metaphor, archetypal or genetic memories or simply a
carefully created fantasy. Regardless of how one views the material
uncovered, the fact remains that it is the individual's unconscious mind
that is working to heal itself and this method has been shown to be as
valid, therapeutically, as any other. At no time is past life regression
meant to be used as evidence of the reality of past lives or for any
historical research or documentation.
Past life regression has a relatively recent history. By the 1980's the Association for Past-Life Therapy and Research was founded, in response to the need of the rising number of professionals who use the methods and techniques in their therapy work. In 1999 it was changed to the International Association for Regression Research and Therapy. Regression is a rapidly evolving and dynamic field of therapy and research, including traditional as well as nontraditional modalities of helping and healing.
