Rating:
Summary: Very practical guide!
Review: Great book for learning about regression. Easy and very clear instructions for regressions. Be sure to read very carefully the part about not allowing a person to get too emotional during a regression. I've been very successful with regressions using this book as a step-by-step guide. It definately works. Warning! Do not substitute stairs for tunnel in regression technique!

Summary: a balanced introduction to past-life regression
Review: The book introduces that any person with simple training for relaxation can regress to past life memories. The main goal is improvement of quality of present life. The author presents a lot of situations from her life. One deals with how her recollection about an earlier life in which she died (as a male) in a cave because of earthquake, helps her to resolve her fear of closed spaces in the present life. The important point is that she verifies from historical records about the actual occurence of an earthquake associated with the time and place. Her girl child always insist on some packing of eatable even for any mudane visit outside home. By regression, she identifies that she has died in a desert in a earlier life. This insight helps her to be compassionate to her child. The issue is not whether one believes in past lifes or not; one can check oneself whether such regression helps one's present life. In case of many phobias, addictions , unreasonable emotinal behaviours, she suggests that past life regression can give understanding and cure. In support of her stand, she presents many case studies. Her discussion on the issue of suicide is very enlighting. Over all the meaning of the approach is spiritual.
