Have you ever wondered who you were in a past-life? Or wondered how to go about finding out in the first place? Or, you're already considering going on a past-life regression (PLR) therapy but you're unsure of how unsafe or effective it may be?
We dive deep to answer questions such as:
• How does one go about finding out who they were in a past life?
• What is a past-life regression (PLR) and how does it work?
• Whether PLR is safe and effective, and can it even be done online?
• How to tell if something (a fear or phobia, trauma, tendency) was brought over from a past-life.
• How karma really works (It's not what you think!)
• Hints at what karmic lessons you're meant to learn in this life-time in your surname
• Why do bad things happen to good people?
Fiongal and Jamie will also clear out some misconceptions about past lives, how karma works, and karmic relationships (including with your family). We also delve into the topic of Old Souls, learning more about the path we've chosen in each life-time through our astrological charts and numerology, and the Akashic Records. Fiongal and Jamie also share stories about seeing their past-lives and reflect on how they mirror their paths in this life time.
Whether you'd like to know who you were, you've already rediscovered your past Self, or you're already on a journey to heal past-life traumas, there will be something for you in this episode.

Wizardry
Speaker 1Welcome to Spirit Level, the podcast that explores spirit, mystery, inspiration and the ancient arts of divination through the lens of modern living. I'm Fingal.
Speaker 2And I'm Jamie.
Speaker 1And we're your hosts In this podcast. We have a mix of guest speakers asking what spirituality means to them, talking heads between Jamie and me, our experiences, what's helped us along our path and what could inspire you, and maybe some meditations along the way. Hello, Hi, Hi and welcome, welcome. Welcome to this, the next episode of Spirit Level. We're whizzing through the monthly we are, whizzing, we are.
Speaker 1We've got a good flow going using the word whizzing reminds me of a card that you once sent to me that said um, my dear wizard, and you'd spelt wizard w-h-i-z-z-a-r-d. I thought it was so cute. I was like wizard.
Speaker 2I don't remember that.
Speaker 1I've still got it somewhere. I think that should go on my LinkedIn profile.
Speaker 2I think, wizard was it just a spelling mistake, or was I? Doing it on purpose, was it?
Speaker 1I didn't know how to spell wizard that's ok, it was cute I know how to spell wizard you were just having a brain fart, how?
Speaker 2are you? I'm all right, thank you.
Speaker 1Yeah Good, what's new pussycat Whoa.
Speaker 2What is new Got any smutty stories Now. Our life's pretty dull, I'm trying to think of something exciting we had a lovely Sunday roast the other day and a lovely walk.
Speaker 1Yeah, that's about. As you know, I read a meme recently that said reaching middle age is basically saying to all your friends oh, we should do something soon. And six months goes by. Yeah, that's basically it. I don't know where the time goes. All those old cliches.
Speaker 2Well, we're both looking forward to having some time off, because we're coming up to a bit of a break, aren't we? You're going to be heading off on a retreat and I'm going to be taking five days off seeing friends, so that will be really nice Counting down the days.
Speaker 1It feels like I'm getting through this week on my hands and knees really. Bless. It feels like I'm getting through this week on my hands and knees. Really Bless you. I always know it's bad when my eyes start twitching.
Speaker 2And I've got a twitchy eye. And also I know it's bad when he has a 12-hour sleep and within three hours says I'm exhausted.
Speaker 1It's 10 hours, darling. Don't exaggerate. I know you like your 10 to 12. No, it was 10 till 8. That's 10 hours.
Speaker 2I said 10 to 12, as in like between the two.
Speaker 1Fine. When's the last time I slept 12 hours. It's quite a while.
Speaker 2Only because I wake you up.
Speaker 1But I know. Otherwise you would I think that's borderline abusive actually.
Speaker 2That's borderline, me to get up, do something.
Speaker 1I've always been a boy that likes to sleep. Ever since I was a kid, I could sleep 10 hours Plus, happily, happily, sleep 12 hours. And nap on top of it. I just I constantly need sleep Anyway.
Speaker 2We're not talking about sleep today. We're not.
Speaker 1Although it's adjacent, perhaps Kind of A fast stretch Like a hypnotic sleep in a way. Yes.
Past-life coverage on @redmagazine
Speaker 2Yeah, we're going to be chatting about past life, regression and past lives in general and past lives in general. Yeah, we thought it would be a fun subject. I actually just recently had a really big article go out in Red magazine Clang. Which was quite exciting.
Speaker 1What a four-page article you mean it?
Speaker 2was a three-page spread. That was also on the cover and it was on the cover. It was a four-page spread, was it four?
Speaker 1Yeah, two double-page spreads.
Speaker 2Oh, okay, Natalie Ariel a journalist came to see me a while back actually, and I took a letter through a past life regression and then, yeah, it appeared not that long ago. My friend messaged me actually and said, oh my god, sitting there reading my my monthly subscription of red magazine and who pops up under the the past life regression? But mr jamie greenlaw meek, from the wellness founder, which I thought was quite cute and and tell everybody what happened with the um, the mortgage advisors, this week.
Speaker 2That's a good story yeah, so that is quite good. We've been. We've we've been chatting to two mortgage advisors, again looking to buy a house very soon this year and, um, the lady on the phone never met her, never spoke to before kind of recognized my voice and said that's so weird. I recognize your voice. You're not jamie me call you. Have you contacted us before? Which I had done? And she said oh, my god, your name came up in our meeting this week. Funny enough about, a getting back in touch with you, but b what a fascinating, interesting company you run and me and me and my colleague are so, so, so interested in all this. And then it transpires that our colleague has actually been listening to this podcast.
Speaker 1So so hi there from mortgage advisors in kent. I've forgotten the company's name the mortgage hub, the mortgage hub, hi, mortgage hub.
Speaker 2Yeah, you're very welcome so it was rather strange to know that. Um, because we do these things and we don't really know how far they're getting out, and we get messages in and emails in from people, but when you have random things like that happen, it is quite crazy.
Speaker 1We've got listeners in Australia.
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 1So I was about to do an Australian accent and say hi, but I think that'll go down like a cup of cold sick, really. So hello to Australia, hello to America. Those listening to america we'd love to know where you're listening from. We can start mapping, pinning the points in the map, anyhow, without further ado. We yeah, we're going to dive deep into past lives, and we wanted the topic for this. The title for this episode is signs that your past life is trying to communicate with you and what happens in their past life regression. So hopefully we can demystify some of the common misconceptions around past lives, answer a few questions, why we might want to do it and all of that good stuff. So, jamie, without further ado, what is a past life to you?
Speaker 2Well, I've always believed in reincarnation. I do believe that we are here to learn certain lessons and if those lessons aren't learned, then we will keep coming back down to earth to continue that journey. So I think I do believe we have many lives, or some of us have many lives. It's interesting, you can often, at the beginning of a session, really get a strong sense of people that have got. There's just a wisdom that comes through with them. You know they've been around a long time, you can tell. I always say yeah.
Speaker 1To people in the, in the um, the sittings that come in, that I sense that with, I say, oh, you've been around the block a few times, you can just tell that and that's got nothing to do with their age they might be really young.
Speaker 2Yeah, you just have a sense that they've been down many, many times and and gleaned much, much wisdom.
Speaker 1Yeah, they tend to have a certain sagacity around them, or a certain wisdom, or a certain depth yeah, it's true, you can, you can spot it.
Speaker 2So, yeah, um, I believe that you come back and you continue to learn these valuable lessons that life tends to throw our way into, some of these old patterns, old things that might have gone on in previous lives. Start to build a little bit of a picture up about your history, because there are some things that that we can explain from our present life, but there are some things. I often sit with clients and they they just say I've just always had this strong, strong pull towards, I don't know, the pyramids, or egypt, or whatever, whatever it might be yeah, there's certain predilections or certain characteristics, yeah, yeah, leaning, yes, things that they're just so, so interested in and don't really know why.
Speaker 2It's not like they've studied it, it's just something that's just there, and I think that's that's always quite interesting when you dive into that, and actually quite often without without me knowing that I do go into these and it is usually something that they've either had a deep fascination with or have been told before in in in sessions or regressions. So what's your take on a past life single?
Speaker 1um much, like you've said, this idea of reincarnation, this idea that we, the soul, um it's. Sometimes I struggle with this concept because I I I very much believe in reincarnation. I very much believe that the soul comes down, um and incarnates in a particular form, in a particular time, in a particular gender, in a particular place. All of this is kind of selected ahead of time, so to speak, although time doesn't really exist, but we'll leave that to another time. And that's all selected in order to understand how we can best learn those lessons that we need to learn. And as part of that process of coming down to Earth, there is also the cosmic rays. So we kind of piggyback on these celestial energetic streams and that also is kind of in part dictated by when we're born and where we're born, so the astrological makeups of who we are, personality types, all of those things, and we choose these particular cosmic rays, again based on the numerology around our birth, I believe. So it's certain attributes, certain strengths and weaknesses that we're imbued in with as we get born.
Speaker 1If you look at your life, as to those constants that you always come back to. So for me that might be my creative endeavours, as much as I may get distracted by the business or get distracted by other things that I do. It's something that I always need to come back to and that's what I call the personality of the soul. Again is for us to learn the lessons that we need to learn, and if we don't quite master those in this lifetime, we've got another lifetime to come back down and try and figure those things out. And then it said that those that become enlightened no longer reincarnate. But it is fascinating and this idea that everything that happens in our life to a certain degree is predisposed.
Academic studies on Past-Life Regression Therapy and the Akashic Records
Speaker 2Well, we're meant to kind of choose the life that we come into aren't we Exactly? And it's not always once when you're choosing. You're choosing choosing which life to come into. It's not like, oh, that one looks nice. It's usually the life where you're going to need to learn the most, so it can be quite challenging. I've got this memory in my mind.
Speaker 1I read a book a long long time ago called many lives, many masters yes, and I've never read it, but I yeah a lot of people that come through for psychologists that started doing case studies around past life regressions.
Speaker 2So he I can't remember how many, but hundreds and hundreds of these cases and compiled a book about all of his experiences and the one thing that sticks in my mind he explains that when you're choosing a past life, it's like you're flicking through a library and you're like flicking through this library at this super quick speed because you're so you know that you, everything doesn't have time, you and it stops and you can kind of peer into that life and decide if that's the one where you're going to learn the most lessons before you kind of dive in, and it's an image that's always stuck in my mind about that.
Speaker 1Yeah I don't know I suppose it's a bit like the akashic records in a way it's like accessing, and again, we can often think about that as the library, but it's not really. And the Akashic Records is apparently the kind of the storehouse for all information, that is, both of the universe and our lives, and that's what we can kind of impart access. But it's as far as I understand it and again correct me if I'm wrong but when we access these past lives it is through the ultermagia chakra at the back of the head, as far as I understand, and it's like. So there's quite there's, I think, five ways that it says that we access past life memories. My God, this is really really stretching my memory.
Speaker 1I should have looked this up before I came on. But there's cryptoamnesia, which is effectively where you've got the iCloud and we plug ourselves into the iCloud and we download memories from that, so from the collective consciousness. The other thing is that it's um ancestral dna, so it's passed through our dna, particularly from our mother's side, and we're accessing it there, um, the other thing is it's from the subconscious mind, something like that. Again, I can't quite remember the other, the other two, but one of them also being oh, it's just the place of imagination, yes, um, uh, that we're just making. We're simply making this up, and what I always say to that is even if we are making it up, it still has value.
Speaker 1the fact that you're coming through as a 15 year old, victorian young lady, as opposed to a 70 year old, um, south american kind of shaman, let's say. That will point towards something that's going on in your life. And one other thing that I was thinking as you were talking, and I've never thought about past lives in this way. It's almost like you're looking at the genealogy of your own life.
Speaker 1So, just like sometimes we can go on the family tree and the ancestral tree and look at oh, my great-great-grandfather was born in Scotland, so that's why I've always felt a natural affinity to Scotland. Let's say, you can also look at your own history of life and kind of trace it back in that way.
Misconceptions about past-life "karma" and how it really works
Speaker 1It was kind of a new way of thinking about it. The only other thing that I think is important to touch upon around past lives before we look at, kind of maybe, what happened in the past life session, is this concept of karma. Karma is a bit of a funny one because often people mistake karma as this concept around uh, if you do good things, bad good things will happen to you. Or if you do bad things, bad things will happen to you. Yeah, and it's not strictly true because that works on this belief system that somebody is um upstairs there with a record kind of marking oh, that person needs to go into detention, oh no, that person should get an a-star. And actually the the universe just doesn't work like that. It doesn't work in our perceived notions of right and wrong, good and bad, punishment and reward it. Just, they are human concepts. So a lot of the time what people ask is well, why do good things happen to seemingly bad people and why bad things seemingly happen to good people? And again, this is often about well, it's not a reward system. It's not a reward system. We're not being punished despite, you know, some of the worst tragedies happening in somebody's life, and that doesn't undermine how difficult they are. If we partake this idea and this concept of well, we are the shapers of our own life and our own experiences. But also it's.
Speaker 1I remember Carolyn Mize once saying well, if it doesn't happen to you, who should it happen to? For instance, your house gets robbed, for instance? Of course that's horrible, it shouldn't happen. Great invasion. You know it's nasty, it's happened to us before.
Speaker 1But it's also like why? Why does this happen to me? And it's like, well, who should it happen to? It should happen to them, should happen to that person. Oh, it's, it's. It's a bit of an odd concept to go oh, why does this happen to me? Again, it's quite kind of victim head led kind of way of thinking. Despite it being difficult. I'm not undermining that at all. So karma doesn't work like that it's. It's a common misconception, I think. I think the important takeaway from karma is it's not this right and wrong, it's not this reward and punishment thing. It is more that the act, it's more cause and effect. There's more cause and effect and also the, and why it's relevant in the past lives is that the acts and deeds that we've had in a past life dictate how many arrows we have in our quiver and all we can be in control of is our intention, where we're aiming the arrows.
Speaker 1But we can't then be surprised that on occasion, even if we have all the best will in the world, even if we have the right intention, because there are so many other external factors, the effect from our cause might not always align and what that often does for people is go well, I don't understand that.
Speaker 1I you know, when we try and aid somebody, and even if our our intention is good to help and assist and is charitable, we can actually end up doing more harm than good, even though our intention was good. So it's again. It belies this idea of good things happen if you're good. Bad things happen if you're bad.
Speaker 2What is the takeaway of that? How do you, how should you? What's the idea in how you behave?
Speaker 1Just doing the best that you can be the kindest that you can, yeah because that will still have an effect on how many quivers, how many arrows, you have in your quiver later. So it doesn't give you carte blanche to just go. Oh well it doesn't?
Speaker 2that's what I'm trying to say, right? So what? So? If that's the case, I could just go and burgle next door and it doesn't really matter no, not at all, because that will affect how many arrows you have later on.
Speaker 1Absolutely, it still all has an effect, but it's just not in the way that it's because because you go and burgle somebody's house does not mean that the universe is making score of that and thinking okay, in two years time, jamie, you're going to break your leg to make up for the fact that you burgled somebody's house. Rather, the karmic effect of that is that later on you've got to be aware that you've burgled your house, that you've slighted something, you've done something wrong, you've done something amoral, and your soul will remember that. It will pick up on that. It will. That will become the storehouse of it. It's not an external storehouse, it's the storehouse of it. It's not an external storehouse, it's the storehouse of the soul that makes more sense.
Speaker 2It's kind of that concept that you know if we're really angry towards somebody yes, it's not them that's going to feel it because the whole gandhi quote.
Speaker 1It's like picking up a hot rock and throwing it at somebody exactly you're going to burn your hand.
Speaker 2It's like by you carrying, you're having to carry the weight of whatever you've done for the rest of your life and potentially into a next life Exactly, as opposed to it being something that you will be punished for later.
Speaker 1It's your own burden on yourself, you're creating a karmic debt. It's exactly that. So, any slights that you do, you have to reconcile. You have to learn the lesson about that.
Speaker 2Have you ever wondered if you have psychic abilities? Perhaps you get those strong gut feelings about things, or you just know when your best friend's about to call. Perhaps you're extremely empathetic and open to other people's emotions. Well, I'm pleased to say that you're not alone.

What can your surname tell you about your karmic lessons in this lifetime
Speaker 1Apparently just to really muddy the waters. Apparently, your surname indicates part of the karmic lessons you need to learn as well. So the fact that my surname's Greenlaw might represent the fact that in a past life I've done something against nature I've done something against the law of nature.
Paying karmic debt
Speaker 1So in this life I have to bring a certain balance back in around that. From your surname's meek. So it might be actually about the, the karmic lesson of humility. It's just an interesting take on it.
Speaker 1But I remember having a reading with somebody.
Speaker 1I was being given a reading and he said and he didn't know about the timeline of the wellness foundry, but he said to me this very recent because I've been running the wellness foundry for the past five years.
Speaker 1He said don't overlook the fact of what you've been working on for the last five years, but it's been clearing some karmic debt. I was like, ah, that really made a light bulb go off in my head of like, oh that, because it did feel like right at the end of that five-year period, something kind of cleared and I was suddenly released from it in a certain way. So this is the other part of a past life is that we come into it and you know and again, it's not about how much of a good person we were in the past life, but it is about, you know, if we were really working on bringing reconciliation and being graceful and living a virtuous life, that is going to have a long-standing effect it reminds me as well that we at one point, when we were deciding, after we got married, what we were going to take our names to be.
Speaker 2We also discovered that by doing your name as a double barrel Greenlaw Meek you're in fact having to clear the karma of both of those surnames. So not only would I be sorting out Meek, I've now got to deal with your shit as well, which was quite interesting.
Speaker 1I don't know what's worse. I think you've got more.
Speaker 2So that was quite funny. So when we decide to do that, that's like yeah.
What actually happens during a Past-Life Regression Therapy session and is it safe?
Speaker 1so if you're, if you're a divorcee and you've got, you're still carrying your ex-partner's name, I would highly recommend that you change it back to to yours, because otherwise you're going to be clearing the karmic debt on behalf of your ex-partner. So when we first started the wellness foundry, I used to lead all the past life regressions, and then it became a particular point where I had to kind of choose my lane, so to speak. Then you joined the team, so I trained you up on how to do the past life regression stuff. So what I would like to ask of you is what happens in a session? How do you run it?
Speaker 2um, yeah, just give a quick overview of of the kind of process so it would consist of two parts is the way I always think of it. The first part is a guided meditation or hypnosis. It's funny I I don't lead with that because it can be quite scary for people, but we are using a form of hypnosis. The's funny I I don't lead with that because it can be quite scary for people, but we are using a form of hypnosis. The script and the words that we use are in that same vein to put people into a very deep, relaxed state.
Speaker 1So there'll be lots of repetition in the words and certain trigger words that will just help them go deeper and often people will say, oh, I felt really heavy or I couldn't move my hands, but in a comforting way, it's true.
Speaker 2You know the difference in a past life regression to a meditation is people still fidget in meditations Usually you know when you've got them in a past life regression because they don't move at all.
Speaker 1That's true, not thought of that.
Speaker 2Yeah, so, and I'm always watching the subtleties of the body as well to know exactly where they are in that process. That's of the body as well, to know exactly where they are in that process. That's true. But yeah, I will.
Speaker 2I will check in with the client again whether they've had a past life regression before explain a little bit what it's about what might come up the process of the first part, leading them into this guided meditation, and the second part, as I lead them into their past life or a past life, and being quite clear that we focus on one, because sometimes again and I had a session recently with somebody where I ended up reading for them so the good thing about being a psychic is I also I'm able to to kind of psychically tune in and read a past life for them, and on occasion I do do that if they can't bring it through themselves.
Speaker 2And I did that for a client and it was so interesting because there was almost three lives that were there, wow, and they were like coming and I just I explained all three lives to her and said that I'm hoping eventually I said I'm going to just keep talking about each of them, but we haven't got time to focus on all of them and see if we land on one, and then it became quite apparent that there was one that was much more prevalent. So we did go that way and at end it transpired that she was really grateful, because that was the one that she felt the most connection to.
Speaker 2So it can be complicated in that sense of sticking to one lane, because there can be many things that come up, many thoughts, feelings that come up, so guide them into one life. And then I start asking questions, starting quite simple, about their appearance, what they look like in this past life.
Speaker 2So starting quite simple about their appearance, what they look like in this past life. So this is the second part. The second part yeah, we kind of go into a question and answer led process, very, very starting small, looking at the ground, looking at the feet, looking at the size of the body Are they in a male body, female body or of other bodies, which is always interesting and again reminding them that, not to filter not to. The problem with this procedure and this therapy is that it a very, very similar stream to imagination, and actually the people that have good imaginations and have a good meditation practice usually find this easier. People that don't have and I only recently realized, but apparently we're split it's very 50-50 in the population 50% of people can actually close their eyes and visualize things and the other 50% just don't have that ability, which I never knew, and it's more prevalent in men.
Speaker 2men find visualization easier and then women find the feeling aspect easier absolutely, and that's something that I've I've learned to do as I do more and more of these sessions as well. If people aren't seeing things, I can guide them more on the feeling, yeah, so before we kind of throw in the towel, I always try and get it. What are you feeling like?
Speaker 1well, and there's sometimes just a knowing as well yeah, it's just like if the way I often describe it to people. If, if I say to you what color is your hair, you just say, oh, it's dark brown. You don't need to be looking in a mirror to know that that's true, you just know that that's true. You've seen it enough times. Exactly. So you can sometimes work in that kind of way too yeah.
Speaker 2So once we've kind of established that connection, then we will go through a series of questions. I will be led by them. Depending what's coming up, I will try and dig a little bit deeper to get more information through and then ultimately lead them up to their their passing in that life, because again, that could uncover some interesting aspects. There have been people that I've sat with that I've had a big, big fear around that and I notice when I get to it they don't want to answer, they don't want to know. A lot of people struggle when I get to that place and I'm always just like, first thing that comes up, what do you feel like what? Don't worry, you are very much an outsider looking in.
Speaker 2I always try and try and comfort people that, although this may seem very real, we always have that safe place. So we we always set this safe place at the start of the session and if ever anyone's feeling overwhelmed, I can sometimes just touch their feet and just say to them remember, you've got your safe place, you can go back to whether that's your bedroom or your garden, because there is this fear that if they go too deep into something are they ever going to find their way back, and that can be quite frightening. So just reassuring people you've got that safe place. Well, I'm here with you, you know, and, and we can choose to go further or not is really, really important because it's unlike anything else in terms of, because it's not like just a meditation, it's not like a dream.
Speaker 1I often say it's a bit like watching something on screen, on the screen of your mind, but also being one of the actors. It's this odd duality and actually through the process you are able to stay very objective. So I've said to people you know when, if you drowned in a past life, you're not going to experience all the horrors of what it's like to be drowning. You'll just see it in a very matter-of-fact way and you'll just go. Oh, I drowned.
Speaker 2Yeah, getting people to that point can be quite difficult. Some people are much easier. Others are just. There's a lot of resistance.
Speaker 1I suppose it reflects their own fear of death Exactly exactly.
Speaker 2But then there have been clients that have done it and it has been a bit of an epiphany, a bit of a oh you know, fear around water, for example, that exact same thing. I had a client that drowned in a past life and in this life there is a very strong fear of the ocean. So you can start to think, oh, there's a. There's a reason why I have that, because it might be something, like we said at the beginning, that they haven't been able to pinpoint in this life and now all of a sudden they can say, oh, that makes more sense.
Speaker 2and just having that, that sense of clarity around it can sometimes bring quite a lot of comfort and also can help dissolve that issue there have been times where people have come in with a phobia or a fear and I've left feeling a lot calmer about that. Maybe that resolved even further down down the Well.
Speaker 1I suppose they're suddenly making sense of it because before there wasn't a context, there wasn't a real reason, there wasn't a kind of tangible causality behind that. And what are some of the other benefits of coming to a past life that you found with your clients?
Speaker 2I think it's a good entry point. So we get a lot of people that have never done anything in this realm any psychic work or work with psychics or mediums, and it seems that this is a good place to start. I don't know whether people have heard a lot more, whether there's been more around past life regressions for some time. It just feels like a more comfortable place to start for people.
Speaker 2Interesting enough, I find that we get more men doing past life regressions as well than psychic than psychic reading so again, it is like a first port of call for the guys um why do you think that is? I think it's because they can be in control of it. Yeah, slightly, with a, with a, with a psychic reading, you are, in a way, giving away your power to somebody. You're kind of you're not, but you are.
Speaker 2You are kind of saying to somebody here's my soul and read it for me, whereas in a past life regression, you are very much still in control of the answers that you bring, which is a good thing, and it can be a good thing and it can be a bad thing, because I do find sometimes I get frustrated in some sessions because I know there's a lot more we can do and the the people sometimes just aren't ready for that or aren't able to access stuff and I'm getting psychic hits about what has actually been going on and I know, that that's their truth, but they're too afraid to go into that.
Speaker 2So that can be really challenging because I'm pushing, but you can only do so much. You can only try and bring it out of them to a certain degree. And then there'll be others that are completely open, that will go into it full hog and will experience things very strongly and there'll be emotions and they will cry and there'll be laughter and lots of different things. Then others where it's a bit more surface, and I think we do say that this is like a muscle and the more that you work the muscle, the stronger it gets. So I think coming back and doing a past life regression two or three times is probably of a benefit. You will notice that it will get stronger the more you do it.
Speaker 1On the back of that, what would be some things that somebody could do? So say, somebody listening has booked in a past life regression or is trying to do one for themselves. What are some tips on how to get into the appropriate kind of zone? I think meditation.
Speaker 2I think just being able to be the first part is really important to be able to get relaxed. If you can't get relaxed, you're not again, you're not going to be able to access that part of your mind, memory, that you're trying to access. You're still going to be in that very kind of rational state chatty mind, monkey mind. So we are having to quieten that down so that there is space for this other thing to come through. So I think a meditation practice, breath work, anything just to calm the nervous system, to get you sitting still, practice just being still and breathing and and maybe even um, you know, listening to, to a guided meditation or of sorts it's interesting because I have occasionally had people come and say, oh, I've never been able to relax, but in that I was in a completely different space.
Speaker 1Or a lot of the times I had clients that say, oh, I never cry, and they're sobbing like babies in the in the session and that's always interesting. So I think, even for those that sometimes have a great resistance around that there's something they can kind of access. I often say that the one um a real good insight as to whether you're susceptible to a past life regression is just when. If you're reading a book and you can really feel what the characters are feeling, or you're watching a film and you're really feeling what the the characters are feeling, that's often an indication that this, this kind of stream, would work I just want to touch on briefly again with some of the other benefits about past life
Speaker 1because one that I found, and this will kind of lead on to to the next point it actually gives you a broader sense of who you are, not only just in phobias, but just this kind of intrigue, this kind of again there's something you said earlier, I can't quite remember what it was, but kind of putting together this puzzle, these pieces of the puzzle, so that you get a fuller idea of of who you are and where these predilections and your personalities and your wants and your, yeah, you can just start to uncover some of the patterns that are repeating themselves and some of the work that needs to be done because it's funny, because often this is what stumps people is because the things they're bringing through can feel very similar to their current life yeah, they might look very different.
Speaker 2Yeah, they might be in a different setting, but they don't feel that different and that's the hard thing for people to understand why they think they're making it up and I just explain. Well, that is because you know you are still working through a lot of these things. So the way that you felt in this previous life, you know and that's something that I find always interesting is is, even if we're working on something that might be 200 years ago, people were still dealing with the same issues 200, 300 years ago than we are today there isn't that much change.
Speaker 2People still want community, people still want to feel loved, people still want to be able to give love, they want a purpose and all this stuff comes up. So it's.
Speaker 2It's just reassuring people that that whatever you thought of that whatever you're bringing through is relevant and whether you feel like you're making it up or not and it is a thing, it is something that I would say 80 of my clients say I feel like I'm making it up and I just have to say just try to switch that off. Allow yourself to just go into this with an open mind, an open heart and go with the first thing that comes up. The first thing that comes up is usually the right thing, and just not let that rational mind get involved and I will just keep reminding them through the session to, yeah, just to go with those first feelings.
Speaker 1And just super quickly. Um, just a a question that popped into my head. Does it make a difference for you if it's online or in person?
Speaker 2I don't. I don't think it affects the quality of the work whatsoever. It just depends on the on the recipients surroundings.
Speaker 1So are they?
Speaker 2going to be able to be undisturbed. You know. If you're at home and you're there with a child, you know and they're going to be able to be undisturbed. You know. If you're at home and you're there with a child, you know and they're going to want your attention. That's just it's not going to work, because if you're going to be keep bringing yourself out of this process, you're not, it's not going to work and it's going to be a waste of time. So I think if you've got the setup correct and you know it's going to be quiet and your technology's all working, then I don't see there being any problem with it doing it on Zoom whatsoever. The nice thing about doing it in person is you're coming to somewhere that's external it's set up specifically for that but absolutely both have worked fine and I've had some really powerful sessions with people on Zoom.

Speaker 1One thing I just wanted to touch on, just to share a personal story of mine.
Speaker 1I've been regressed probably four times, I think something like that and one time there's a story that really still sticks with me is I was a cowboy back in the kind of Dust Bowl in a Dust Bowl city, probably in the latter part of the 19th century, early part of the 20th century around that area, and I was the kind of sheriff I don't think it was officially that title, but I was somebody that used to patrol the village or kind of care for the village and I developed a motor neuron disease and most of the townstead thought that I was a drunk a town drunk.
Speaker 1And I remember vividly there was this moment where I was riding on the back town drunk, and I remember vividly there was this moment where I was riding on the back of the horse and I just fell off this horse because of this motor neuron disease and again people were just kind of laughing at me and dismissing me and going oh there he is, he's drunk again. And I remember feeling this palpable sensation of injustice, of feeling like you know how unfair of the universe, going back to karma, how fair, unfair of the universe, that I'm not drunk, I'm, I'm. I'm being ridiculed, I'm being ostracized for a disability for a disability that has been misunderstood within this community.
Speaker 1It's again just something that, and there was only a couple of scenes that played out in that, but I remember that being really vivid. And then my other past life that really sticks out in my mind. I was in Regency Regency era Because I had I think it's Regency where you have those kind of I was a man again and those kind of patent, slightly high heel shoes with the big buckle on them and the white tights that come up to the knees.
Speaker 2Do you know the style?
Speaker 1I mean, I'm pretty sure it's regency here, um, but I lived in a london townhouse and I remember distinctly as well in that past life that all my family were upstairs and the house was on fire and I just lost my wife, lost my kids, lost my entire family to this house fire and I was standing on the bottom of the stairs and it was flitting between these two images of before the fire and I was standing at the on the hallway shouting up, calling up to my family, and then it just flitting to this image of the whole house being burnt down. Oh god, that's really. There's. One thing from most of the uh, past lives is they don't tend to be kind of happy. No, but they're the things that need to be resolved usually, and it's usually the same themes.
Speaker 2It's usually around feeling isolated, misunderstood, lonely right they seem to be the main themes that come up all the time, and it's just that again that what I was saying, that things haven't changed so much.
Speaker 2You know, we we experienced this feeling of isolation during covid and lockdown and I think we we have come out of that knowing that community is more important than ever, and that's something again back then then, when we talk about these past lives that people crave. But often people are very, very isolated. Often people don't know how to interact with people. Often people are so misunderstood or people might have been thought differently. Often I find people back then have a more advanced thinking process that might be more in line with today, but back then it made no sense for you to be thinking that way, so you were ostracized or told you were crazy. Yeah, it's funny. I'm trying to think. I've been regressed a couple of times.
Speaker 2You did a regression for me, did I yeah, well, it was a group regression and I just remember that I want. It was one of the first times I did it and I wasn't expecting it to be so vivid, but it was so clear and I was, I was.
Speaker 2I was an owner of an apothecary, that's right and all making all these little tinctures and and I was just so happy in that space and in that life and felt so content and and then you know thinking about me today and you know I ran a juice bar. I was always very interested in in concoctions and bringing things together and I love cooking and mixing things together and ointments, and you know you've got your essential oils and things and it was like that was my, that was my path to kind of create these tinctures for people and around health.
Signs that your past-life is trying to communicate with you
Speaker 2And again, I'm super interested in helping people on a on a, on a holistic level with their health and I yeah, I just remember thinking that makes so, so, so much sense that that was something I did in a past life what?
Speaker 1what might be some signs that a past life regression might be suitable for somebody, or signs that your past life is trying to communicate with you? What are some kind of symbols or signs?
Speaker 2deja vu is a really strong one when we have those moments that we can't explain, when we just feel like we've been here before, those conversations with different people, because again we might have incarnated into, we might have been. You know, it's crazy, we might have been our mother in a in life, our father, our sister. There's these interconnections with people that we have, these soul interconnections, and often we do come back and are around similar people quite often. So it might be that there's just this strong feeling towards somebody and you're like why am I so drawn to that person? Or having a conversation with somebody where you feel like the dynamic feels strange here or it feels super strong or connected and that happens with places as well you might go to a place and you just think I love this place.
Speaker 1It feels like home or there's this calling for something. Yeah, and again I think what you were saying before about these patterns or these cycles that keep appearing, or that you have this compulsion to something that you just can't explain or yeah, that you.
Speaker 1You just feel that your there's phobias, tends to be a really big one as well. That is an indicator. Yeah, I also feel that one of the great benefits of doing past life regression, particularly for me, is that it did somehow take this, take the sharpness of death away a little bit I personally feel that through my regressions, that my fear of death has diminished.
Speaker 1Uh, certainly because I'm thinking well, maybe this isn't the end and at those times that I have experienced the passing in a past life, it wasn't as visceral. Or as kind of grotesque, as I'd perhaps anticipated. There was a sense of sometimes just ease that came with that, or a sense of even relief. At times I felt, yeah, in the kind of death process yeah, yeah, there's never.
Your Soul Tribe (soulmates you meet across lifetimes) & Karmic Partnerships
Speaker 2It's very rare that when we get to that point that there was resistance, around it most of the time it actually goes quite smoothly, like either they're ready or it happens, and then there is relief, like you said, or or just a sense of returning home in some way yeah, that's a nice way to describe it. It always feels it. People anticipate that that to be the most challenging, and then often it's not yes or I agree like I said, people are reluctant to go into it to find out.
Speaker 1That's the other thing yeah, I just want to touch briefly on something you you mentioned there about this. I often call it like the repertoire of actors, that that we, uh we we tend to have a little band or a troop of people that we connect with or come down with, so to speak. Um, so, just as you were saying, our mother in this lifetime might have been our sister in the past lifetime or, you know, our teacher or whomever it may, and we tend to choose different roles within each lifetime to help each other expand and grow and understand these lessons. So when we're talking about soulmates, that's often what we're actually talking about. A lot of people say, oh, a soulmate is about a romantic connection. It's kind of to say, actually, it very rarely is, can be, but it very rarely is, and actually remember sometimes as well, your worst enemy in this lifetime might be a soulmate. Because they are like who teaches us the most about ourselves?
Speaker 1the people we have struggles with or the people we love the most. It tends to be either end of the spectrum, so you know that. Um, yeah, um, I'm trying to think of a name that isn't something.
Speaker 1I know, bob, that Bob from next door, that you can't stand and your blood curdles every time you see him. Actually, maybe change that script, maybe change it with a piece of gratitude and appreciation going. Actually, maybe he's been put there to teach me more about myself, or to teach me about the dynamic and the, the virtue of forgiveness or patience, or all of these things and because a lot of people do come.
Speaker 2That's the other thing they come to past life regressions for is there might be somebody that's in their life that either it's a very complicated love relationship that they are trying to leave behind and they just can't, or they desperately want to be with them and it's not quite working out and that can be quite challenging because they come with that very specific idea in their head and wanting answers around that and sometimes you can uncover some stuff, but but again it's it's kind of down to them what they bring and sometimes they're not not able to bring that or access that, which is why sometimes it can be beneficial for me to do a past life reading particularly when as an objectivity, as an objectivity towards it.
Speaker 2And I've done quite a few of these now because it arose from people not being able to get into that state. So we decided to add it as a service and I've done quite a few, and you know it's more work for me. In a sense it's a bit more challenging for me, but which?
Speaker 2we know you loathe it can be a bit more. It can be a bit more in depth, because I guess I'm used to working in those ways and I'm used to to bringing through those visual visualizations through and helping people see, and I get them to still close their eyes and go on that journey and often by the end of it they're like wow, I really went on that journey with you still and was able to take it in much more and I was able to be a bit more descriptive and give them a bit more detail because I'm so yeah, because I'm objective because from my own life you know, I've definitely had soul connections or those times that I've met people and it's felt very kind of palpable and intense.
Speaker 1And yeah, there's just that intensity where you know something else is going on here. But actually more often than not they tend to be the very ephemeral relationships that I've been in, because I often see them as a flash in the pan kind of relationship. They're very intense, there's loads of heat, it's very kinetic and then it fizzles very, very quickly. So it's not always that those soul connections, those soul mates, is about everlasting love at all you know, I think it's quite different between you and me, because I didn't.
Speaker 1When I first met you I didn't think, oh my god, here's my soul mate at all. But the longer we spent together, the more I've actually realized no, that's true, but it hasn't come with that same kind of disruptive edge. I suppose it kind of just grew in its own natural way.
Speaker 2So I think we sometimes you grew to love me, slowly but surely you wore me down.
Speaker 1No, it's not so much that it's just and well, it's hard because, like when we first met each other, we were just together all the time, so there was obviously that intensity of emotion. It's to say that that, that thing that we're looking for, that gets really disruptive and it's like I don't feel that that's always conducive with a long-standing relationship does that make sense?
Speaker 2yeah that's what I'm pointing towards, yeah I think.
Speaker 1I think actually our bond got. Our bond got stronger and stronger and stronger, rather than this really intensive bond at the beginning that waned that's. That's the kind of difference, not that I didn't think when we first met.
Speaker 2Okay, anyway, I'll stop talking because I'm digging myself a hole? Well, because I I immediately. When I saw you walk in with that crystal in your water bottle, I was like, oh that's not a euphemism, by the way I knew.
Speaker 2I knew what was going to go on here. I just thought this is all. It just felt like divine timing. It was weird. It was because I'd been on such a journey with my health and then that closed, and then this new door opened. And the new door opened, but with a sense of of light and spirituality and again revisiting. It's like. In my life I've been through many circles of life as well, and that's the thing. In one lifetime, we we do circle, and I've circled back to something that was, was, was really strong for me 20 years ago.
Speaker 2So it was like coming back to it, but with more wisdom, which was quite interesting Cause I think, had I met you 20 years ago, 10 years ago, it wouldn't have been, it wouldn't have worked 10 minutes ago.
Speaker 1Yeah, ago it wouldn't have been, it wouldn't have worked minutes ago. Yeah, anyway, I'm gonna pull a card to see what spirit has to say about past lives. Ah, interesting, interesting, good, okay, we have the four of pentacles here, which is um kind of the mini king. When I looked at that I have no idea how it related to past lives at all, but actually, um, the way that it lands and the way that it keys in is very often something we didn't touch upon. Their team seems to be kind of two extremes that come through in past lives either they are where a princess, or of great riches or great status or great wealth, or they're at the very other end of the spectrum where they are impoverished and really down and out and struggling with their health, and very often we can.
Speaker 1You know that idea that to be the king, to be that royalty, is going to be easier, and I think what you were saying before is so true. Those issues apply whatever, wherever you are in that spectrum. The issues that we all face at different times are exactly the same, and one of the big big things about looking at past lives working through past life is through is to explore this virtue of humility and actually understand that, regardless of status, regardless of where we are, regardless of what we have, actually the lessons and the things that we need to strive for and the things that we're processing and the things that we're integrating are actually the common thread between all of us yeah, wow no, sorry it's deep?
Can you reincarnate into a non-human entity, such as an alien?
Speaker 2no, it is. And then I've just just to share quickly as well. I don't know why I've just had this flash, and something that I feel like I need to share is is that um the other?
Speaker 2the other thing with these past lives is we're not always coming back in human form yes you know, and and this is this is really hard because if someone comes back and they are, you know, an animal or an alien, an alien or another being of sorts, that can be quite challenging. And I just I'm sure this person won't mind me sharing that I had one client and I just knew the minute we sat down because this person is very magical, anyway, very, very magical and works in this works in this field and I just knew this was going to be a fascinating regression, and by all counts it was.
Speaker 2and and when the first description was yellow skin and blue eyes and I'm floating above the clouds, I was like here we go and we were off and we laughed the two of us throughout that session so much. It was one of my most memorable and favourite regressions I've done and just that sense it just shows that that person that comes with that magical energy has had that magical experience before, and there's so much more going on than we can ever comprehend and understand.
Speaker 2Yeah, I just wanted to end that. It was just making me smile.
