Have you ever felt drawn to other times and places, wondered if there is more to this life? Did you ever feel you already knew someone you just met?

Answers to these questions and feelings can be obtained through your own direct experience, while tuning into the subconscious mind to recall memories of other places and times. Journeying to past, parallel, or future lifetimes can provide high adventure and unusual insights and can be a valuable therapeutic tool for practical and spiritual illumination and for enhancing the quality of your present life.

Simply allow yourself to be gently guided into a relaxed, yet aware alpha state, setting aside the conscious mind proper and communicating directly with the subconscious, which retains all memories of every moment. As your facilitator, I will guide you to different portals of time and space, into and through each lifetime, while gathering details of your experiences to help you make connections and understandings. Upon passing over in another lifetime, advice can be obtained from that particular personality, bearing upon that lifetime of experience.

It is your thoughts from past, parallel, and future lives that have resulted in your current reality. Vows - words uttered in strong emotion - affect all lifetimes. For instance, if you were abandoned by a dearly loved one, you might promise to 'never fall in love or marry again!' and therefore, you have set yourself up in this life, wondering why you are too afraid to commit to a relationship! Some fears, phobias and even physical problems can be traced to events in other lifetimes. Once these insights are obtained, the issues can be released and their energy discharged.

Belief in reincarnation is not necessary to experience a regression or to obtain valid therapeutic understanding and self awareness. If a present situation or issue is especially painful, stressful or embarrassing, one may simply detach from it by relating to it in the guise of role playing in a 'past life' and thereby deal with it safely and easily from a distance, rather than continuing to avoid it altogether. Since this process occurs in the alpha / subconscious state of mind, the releasing of any deep emotions such as guilt, fear, anger, sadness or undesirable issues has an immediate, lasting effect. Afterwards, you are free to make your own judgments as to the validity of the 'past' information you received.

Neither is it mandatory to recall only 'past' lives or ones on this planet! There are eons of possible alternate realities, including present parallel lives and future ones, and galaxies of possibilities! Experience a grand adventure without leaving town - remember more of your soul's journeys! Rather than remaining blocked by traumas, you can be(come) the accumulated wisdom, skills and abilities of all of your incarnations. Behold - Be Wholed, whole and healed!

Soul Retrieval
"Only by knowing all the ways you have lived and died do you exorcise the death that lives inside you." Alberto Villoldo, Mending the Past and Healing the Future with SOUL RETRIEVAL.

Whenever one experiences pain and trauma and is unable to process it, especially in early childhood and even in the womb, wounding occurs that results in soul loss. At the time of any injury or trauma, all a child understands is that he or she is frightened and the world has become a dangerous place. Our wounds, while often stemming from different types of abuse, including neglect, are not always the result of an actual event. Often, a wound results from the way things were perceived through the eyes of a child. This perception is very irrational, while at the same time, very powerful.

An example was given to me by a woman facilitated healings while seeing 'movies' of a client's life. She described working with one woman and seeing a young girl, hiding in a closet with a male hand reaching for her. I immediately thought, "Oh my God, I don't want to hear this; it's got to be child abuse." I was wrong. The woman continued, explaining that the mother, during her recent pregnancy, had often cautioned both the little girl and her siblings to 'be good so that nothing bad happens to Mommy'. Well, the baby was still born and naturally, the little girl had not succeeded in being on her best behavior during the entire nine months of her mother's pregnancy. She now believed with all her heart that she had killed that baby. It was her fault, she was guilty. She proceeded to hide in the closet, not wanting to go to the funeral. Her father reached in to gently pull her out and encourage her to 'come along', having no idea of the trauma inflicted by her self induced guilt.

Wounding is what keeps us mired in depression, stuck in unhealthy and abusive relationships, too afraid to leave secure but boring jobs that rob us of creative pleasure. We feel that we've been banished from our Eden, so we spend our lives trying to mask or ease the pain that we received during that fall from grace.

We bring with us wounds from earlier lives. We may have died alone, been tortured and killed by those who feared and hated us, unwittingly caused the death or suddenly lost loved ones dear to us, been abandoned or banished - instilling unresolved psycho-spiritual dynamics that become imprinted into our present lifetime and predispose us to unique "fateful" experiences, much as our childhood traumas do.

According to Alberto Villoldo, in Mending the Past and Healing the Future with SOUL RETRIEVAL, "We can also suffer from ancestral wounds that have been passed from one generation to the next - perhaps endured during the Holocaust, the Great Depression, or a revolution. No matter what the cause, we inherit a set of beliefs from our wounded ancestors that we take for our own. Negative attitudes about abundance, scarcity, success, failure, security, sexuality, and intimacy can all come from this ancestral wounding. When this kind of generational soul loss is handed down, children are plagued by issues they didn't even experience in their own lifetimes, yet they end up suffering from despair and self-judgment as a result."

According to Alberto, our Original Wounding is the loss of the sacred feminine, resulting in our collective soul loss as human beings. Our divorce from the feminine is the deep, primitive wound we all bear. "So it's very important for us to address our soul loss now, before our original wounding is passed on to our children, or to the person we'll be born as in our next life."

The final phases of the regression process involve adopting a wider perspective than that of any one past-life personality. As the spiritual self displays the various parallels between events, emotions, and attitudes of the past-life characters and those of the current personae, support is given for releasing pent-up judgment, guilt, hate and denial. By understanding the reasons bad choices were made during times of stress, acceptance and forgiveness of the self and others is possible and integration occurs. Forgiveness of the self allows the working through of guilt, which is the basis of continued patterns of distress and failure.

This integration is the basis of soul retrieval. To the extent with which we stop identifying with the unresolved issues from this and other lifetimes, we are now able to live joyfully and fully in the present, secure in the assumption of a benevolent, supportive universe. A shadow figure becomes integrated, a split is healed, a lost part of the soul is redeemed through love and acceptance.
