FIRST LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS (Conservation of energy)

Energy cannot be created or destroyed.  Energy (e.g. souls having a human experience) can only be changed from one form to another.  That said, we have always been here in one form or another just as the energy that formed the planets has always been here in various forms.  And yes, even "poor little Pluto" recently demoted from the planetary solar system is energy too and cannot be destroyed.
 
INTRODUCTION

  
Virtually everyone has some degree of unresolved past experiences (UPE) or what can also be called unresolved traumatic experiences (UTE).  Some of us have more UPE/UTE than others to complete in this lifetime.  If everyone was conscious of their UPE and took steps to resolve their past experiences, then we would live in a more highly evolved world.  Evolution, or a balanced mind/body, is a process and eventually life on earth could resemble a Utopian-like existence of world peace.  A place without the unconscious need to harm another person or oneself and where abuse and self-abuse patterns are no longer part of one’s consciousness.  I also define it as an existence where we are awakened to our purpose and appreciative of the environment including the inhabitants of our present/future "global home."
 
My definition of Utopia is not going to resonate with everyone and we may never achieve world peace.  It may never be possible for all individuals to experience a peaceful reality at the same time and isn't necessarily ideal.  However, we are ultimately responsible for our personal evolution and well-being. 

We develop and advance at varying paces, and if someone is '"stuck" in a reality that is preventing them from moving forward, then Past Life Therapy will help. The purpose of this book is to offer readers hope and inspiration and to introduce a therapeutic process that allows individuals to expedite the process of spiritual evolution and expand consciousness.  PLT provides individuals with an opportunity to resolve unconscious, past-life survival scripts that are blocking them from experiencing an enjoyable reality in this lifetime and beyond.
 
Some say there is no such thing as a Utopian-like existence and that global peace may never exist, however, a person can choose to experience peace within, and once achieved,  he/she can create an environment to reflect it.   What does your life look like now? Who are the people in your life?  What role do they play in supporting unresolved, victim- victimizer scripts?  Is it time for a change?
 
It is likely there will always be those who need chaos and destruction in their lives until they have had a chance to resolve and become conscious of their unresolved, survival-based tendencies.  We could have a reality in which more have evolved past the cycles of victimization and chaos.  Until then, the existence of the planet is perfect in many ways, for it reflects the collective unconsciousness of most individuals; i.e. the need to still have fear in one's life, for most people have not evolved past survival mode.
 
Our physical manifestation on Earth is the playground to experience karma until the past is resolved.  Past Life Therapy is a process to work through and finish unresolved experiences in a therapeutic setting rather than unconsciously reenacting past-life programming and victim-victimizer roles in one’s daily life.  Eventually, we could reach a level of global consciousness where more individuals have completed their unconscious need to experience victimization and adopt a more humane and peaceful existence as benign observers. Benign observers are active participants in life who have resolved victim-victimizer cycles of evolution originating from past-life traumas and emotionally charged events.
 
For those who have unresolved past experiences, victimization continues in the form of behavioral and medical-related challenges. For example, physical ailments including terminal dis-eases can manifest as an ultimate build-up and expression of unresolved cycles of victimization.  More specifically, a lack of emotional expression/closure from past-life traumas and present-life issues is held in the body until released and can create physical issues mirroring the past. This is the soul’s unconscious attempt to complete traumatic experiences. 

Past Life Therapy and clinical hypnotherapy (focused-state) accesses previous memories that may contain unconscious beliefs of unworthiness contributing to victimization.  These beliefs are created due to commands defined by words or body language at the time of a traumatic, confusing experience rooted in past-lives and reinforced in the prenatal period, birth, accidents, or surgeries.
 
Past life therapy (PLT) utilizing clinical hypnotherapy methods is a form of self-guided dehypnosis.  It doesn't entail "suggestive programming."  If anything, it has a deprogramming aspect that enables one to experience life with a sense of freedom.  An existence without survival-based prejudices and false/misleading programming from one’s past lives. 

PLT is a process of self-discovery revealing one’s many lives journey for a greater understanding of how one came to be the person they are today.  It uncovers one’s karmic cycles of both victim and victimizer, empowering one with insight and reframed (resolved) past events.  It ends patterns which no longer serve one’s well-being.  PLT manifests a feeling of completeness, inner calm, and well-being.
 
REFRAMING/ RESOLUTION
 
Reframing is a technique used to create a shift in a client's conscious awareness and exposes any false logic instilled during an unconscious event or trauma regardless if it is from this lifetime or previous lifetimes. It can create an outcome that unlike "erasing a memory" allows a person to communicate an appropriate response (in their mind or acted out in session) to a past scene for emotional closure and clarification It's a technique in which a client can reexperience an emotionally charged event and alter the dialogue exchanged to complete and regain control over a past experience.  Basically, it's saying or doing what you could not say or do at the time even if it just takes place in the mind.  Reframing is the final step in the resolution process of a particular event worked in session.  This occurs in a therapeutic setting which prevents a client from recreating similar circumstances unconsciously as an attempt to achieve this closure.
 
CHOOSING GENETICS/ SYNCHRONICITIES

Imagine we are on this physical plane for a "higher reason" and that there are no coincidences or accidents including one’s injuries, illnesses, or random events and meetings.  Synchronicities reinforce, test, or provoke expansion of consciousness and evolution.  
 
Let’s assume for discussion purposes that we choose our parents and our genetics.  Again, we would do so for a ‘higher reason’ perhaps to continue an unresolved experience or create new one’s that we would be less likely to experience had we different genetics than the ones we chose for this lifetime.
 
If we choose our parents, then we must have also on a certain (soul) level chose the ones that would treat us the way we felt about ourselves at the time of our death. If someone felt unworthy of love, he or she would choose parents that would continue this belief or script.  If one is able to change this belief pattern before their next death, then one will no longer attract/choose parents or relationships that would continue a painful cycle of victim-victimizer.  Past Life Therapy locates these unconscious scripts and empowers a person to change them in this lifetime.   It discloses the events that resulted in confusion or shock when the conscious mind shut down and was vulnerable to messages that can affect how one feels about themselves and others.
 
In choosing our parents and their genetics, we therefore unconsciously chose our sex, sexuality, attributes and "flaws," as well as the foundation for how easy or difficult of a life we will have in order to accomplish what we need to learn or in this particular lifetime.
 
We choose the parents that will insure we have these pre-determined genetics in order to complete unresolved past experiences. The soul will attract whatever physical, mental, and emotional qualities are required to resolve the past in order to maximize one's potential for growth and "awakening.’"  UPE can be resolved using The Netherton-Paul Method of Past Life Therapy to short-cut the process of having to go through numerous lifetimes with negative patterns.
 
WHO WILL YOU BE IN YOUR NEXT LIFE?

 
In your next lifetime, you may reincarnate as a different race, gender, or sexuality than you have now and on the opposite side of the globe.  You may attract what you least want to be until you realize both unconsciously and consciously that we are more than our bodies and gender and that there is no superior way of being.  Ask yourself, do I stereotype others and do I have uneasiness about any particular group of people?  If the answer is yes, you need to confront its source or it may keep you from advancing spiritually and create a blocked or closed energy.  Blocked energy can manifest into all types of ailments and physical discomforts.  It is these discomforts that are often one’s soul (higher self) communicating to you that you have areas which need to be addressed and resolved.
 
You become what you need to be in order to advance spiritually and to complete an experience for higher learning. This is how spiritual evolution works.  The system is perfect.  In other words, the situation you find yourself in currently is perfect for it is what you need to experience.  If it is an unpleasant experience and you can't get out of it, find out why you are continuing to experience it and finally complete it in a therapeutic setting.
 
I sometimes use the following analogy to explain reincarnation by comparing our bodies to a leased vehicle in which we temporarily park our soul when we are on the physical plane.  When you lease a car, and it's time to return it in order to lease a new one, you are obviously the same person when you leave the auto dealership.  The only real difference is you are driving a different automobile.  Maybe this time you lease a truck instead of a sports car.  Whatever was going on in your life that is still unresolved is present as you are driving in your new vehicle.  You are the same person that just happens to be in a new car/new body.
 
When you reincarnate to your new body, you will experience life again with whatever unresolved issues were present at the time of your death.  For a moment, try to think of life in infinite vs. finite terms.  There is no beginning and there is no end, which is a difficult concept for the finite mind to initially grasp.  You have always been here and always will be and evolution is a continual process.  It is likely you will come back to Earth at some point after death. Therefore, make each incarnation more enjoyable by resolving what needs to be completed and experience your current-life and future ones as a more highly evolved individual.  

WHAT YOU LEARN IN THIS LIFE YOU BRING WITH YOU TO THE NEXT...INCLUDING BEHAVIORS/SKILLS!

Ever wonder why a 6-year old can play the piano with limited effort?   Why do some people have an inclination to ballet as if they've been dancing forever.  Their past lives will likely reveal they have performed these activities in other lifetimes.  Why do some  "geniuses" appear miserable or tortured by their abilities?  Well, their survival may have been based on them performing or perfecting their craft.  Any survival-based issues should be resolved.  Then, a person can move onto another skill or maintain the one they have without the unconscious dialogue insisting they must continue their survival-based "passion"/obsession.
 
WELL-BEING

Resolving UPE (unresolved past experiences) will enable a person to alleviate or resolve mood disorders or other mental/physical problems often labeled: ADD, ADHD, DID, PTSD, depression, compulsive or addictive behaviors, learning disabilities, and various diseases, etc.
   
Once resolution is achieved, a person is less prone to experiences resulting in physical injury or emotional stress.  Ailments and injuries stimulated from past-life traumas are less likely to manifest and symptoms of one’s ailments can diminish.  Circumstances that are painful and unproductive lessen or are eliminated.  Any unjust past experience will be completed and understood to encourage productive experiences that support evolution and wellness. 

When one reclaims their sense of worth, he/she will decline from engaging in behaviors out of alignment with one’s authentic self.  With continued therapy, the source of one’s unconscious attraction to painful experiences and self-abuse patterns contributing to various ailments are understood and resolved.  One will develop increased self-esteem and no longer want to escape reality or practice self-inflicted abuse through poor diet, drug use or unhealthy relationships. 

As consciousness expands, a person appreciates their existence.  They can maximize their growth potential in this life and bring forth their sense of worthiness for future lifetimes.  Taking the time to complete the necessary inner work can result in many lifetimes of well-being.

 
CELL MEMORY

 
Every injury or physically and emotionally charged event is recorded and contained in cellular/soul memory in the form of commands.  These commands programmed during trauma affect our unconscious motivations and likelihood of manifesting and repeating a similar injury or disease in the future.  Past Life Therapy utilizing hypnotherapy can access and change these commands therefore preventing further episodes of an unresolved traumatic experience (UTE).   Cell memory is carried over to one’s next life including unresolved or resolved issues.  By resolving the issues,  UPE will no longer encourage behavioral and physical issues in this lifetime and beyond.
 
PROVING PAST LIVES/ PAST LIFE MEMORIES

 
It may never be possible to prove past lives, and it may never be possible to prove mental illnesses exist, which is why they are called "disorders."  Does that mean we should disregard or discount what a client uncovers in Past Life Therapy as 'collective unconsciousness' or false memories if the memories that surface create resolution, inner peace, and improved health?  The origin of one's ailments has past-life sources/memories that are recalled during Past Life Therapy sessions and similar to how one wouldn't discount someone's reality when they have a dream, a past-life memory is equally valid.  We would never say to someone, "I question that you had a dream last night or that what you experienced in it was a lie." 
 
 
CHILDREN


Daniel Siegel's "Parenting from the Inside Out" writes,

When we become a parent, we bring with us issues from our own past that influence the way we parent our children. Experiences that are not fully processed may create unresolved and leftover issues that influence how we react to our children. These issues can easily get triggered in the parent-child relationship. When this happens our responses toward our children often take the form of strong emotional reactions, impulsive behaviors, distortions in our perceptions, or sensations in our bodies. The intense states of mind impair our ability to think clearly and remain flexibly and affect our interactions and relationships with our children. At these times, were not acting like the parent we want to be and are often left wondering why this role of parenting sometimes seems to "bring out the worst in us." Issues that are rooted in our past impact our present reality and directly affect the way we experience and interact with our children even when we're not aware of their origins.

To our role of parenting we bring our own emotional baggage, which can unpredictably interfere in our relationship with our children. Leftover issues or unresolved trauma and loss involve significant themes from the past that stem from repeated experiences early in life that were difficult and emotionally significant. These issues, especially if we have not reflected on them and integrated them into our self-understanding, can continue to affect us in the present.

 
There is seldom justification for disciplining a child through physical force including slapping, pushing, and spanking.  Perhaps the only time it is justified is for saving a child's life to make a crucial point. i.e. a child that is about to walk into traffic after being told how dangerous this is before a light turns green, etc.  Since the child was not responding to the parent's commands, this is another issue altogether.  Mental abuse and neglect is equally damaging to a child’s self-esteem (worthiness) and can stunt their development resulting in an array of "mental disorders" and other ailments. If one finds themselves tempted to hit a child, this is coming from one’s own unresolved past experiences.  If a child is hit by a "loved one," they learn it is acceptable to hit and be abused by a loved one. Both mental and physical abuses become an expected and acceptable part of love making children more likely to attract and tolerate similar kinds of "loving" relationships as an adult.   This is how the victim-victimizer cycle is reinforced.  

If one treats children with loving attention, respect, and appropriate discipline, children will grow-up learning to feel worthy of love.  In contrast, if a parent shows love and respect only 50% of the time, the child matures to attract and choose friends and a mate similar to how they were treated by his or her parents.  A person learns to associate love as something conditional and only worthy of receiving half the time.  The other half of the time may include mental and/or physical abuse or neglect.  We attract and accept into our life what we feel we are worth.
 
ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) or ADD  
 
Many individuals, who have what is defined as Attention deficit disorder (ADD) by the medical community, are  from abusive or neglectful households.  If a child has combative parents creating an unstable environment, a child may feel they always have to be on-guard.  If a child does not have a peaceful environment in which to grow-up, they can't focus on a task.  Some children who are not given quality attention behave in negative ways in hopes of getting any attention.  Their misbehaving is a cry for help.  They learn creative ways of gaining attention from their peers, parents, etc. by acting out their unconscious and unresolved past experiences.
 
Some parents are too quick to drug their children.  There are no medical tests that prove ADD/ ADHD.  A kid acting out is a cry for help and a plea to parents to do something or stop doing something.  And their behavior will connect to an unresolved, survival-based script.  Please see unconscious scripts.
 
Long-term use of psychiatric drugs can increase the likelihood of mood disorders, suicide, and decreases the functioning of the brain by 30%.  There are numerous studies proving the dangers of psychiatric drugs.  See Toxic Psychiatry by Peter Breggin or Prozac Backlash by Joseph Glenmullen.
 
GOD
 
As defined by Dr. Netherton: “Similar to what a uterus is to a child in the prenatal stages of development.”  An environment that contains everything one needs to develop and grow. Is it a being?  It is if you want it to be.  We are all from the same source as God.  Therefore, we can evolve to be closer to its/his/her likeness.  Everyone is entitled to their own definition of God and what religion they choose to practice, if any.  It is for us to decide.
 
CREATION


Perhaps the earth was always here always will be; an infinite continuum.  A difficult concept to grasp since the mind thinks in finite terms.
 
SOUL
 
We are so much more than our physical existence and the body where we temporarily park our soul. 

SURVIVAL (FEAR) VS. EVOLUTION (PEACE)

 
Survival patterns of victim and victimizer.  Resolution results in one becoming a benign observer: a person who evolves past the cycles of victimization.  An observer who can consciously choose to witness the drama of victimization, but does not feel the need unconsciously or consciously to participate as a victim or victimizer.  With expanded consciousness, we would all evolve beyond survival mode and eliminate fear.  Through resolution and evolution, we would live in peace. The cycles of victim and victimizer are resolved one person at a time and when they are ready.

UNCONSCIOUS MIND/ EXTERNAL VOICES FROM UNCONSCIOUS EVENTS BECOME INTERNAL VOICE COMMANDS UNTIL RESOLVED

The unconscious mind is essentially a tape recorder which is recording at all times.  It records sounds, actions, and non-verbal communication/energy interpreted as commands directing and motivating you.  See  unconscious scripts. The mind is always recording even when you are asleep and especially vulnerable to "programming" during drug-induced unconscious states from surgeries or any events involving shock/trauma, pre-natal/birth experiences, and from past-lives.   The unconscious mind is irrational and does not care about you.  Its only purpose is to record and direct you similar to how a computer follows an installed software program or an operating system's commands.  You are affected by the directions/confusion created during these recorded events which can manifest as present-life behavioral and medical issues.   Unresolved moments of shock and trauma leave the mind in a permanent type of altered state causing a person to feel disconnected or unfocused.  Past Life Therapy utilizing dehypnosis allows you to release the repressed/suppressed traumas and emotionally charged events in a clinical setting to clear confusion, heal, and create consciousness.  The soul/mind longs to resolve and finish the unresolved moments from the past that remain unclear.

 
AUTHENTIC SELF
 
When someone becomes more highly evolved, he or she is always in alignment with their authentic self. This means not conforming to be what people want you to be or allowing yourself to be defined by your peers.  Others have to accept you in whatever way you choose to live your peaceful existence.  If not, they will no longer become an integral part of your primary relationships.  You need to honor your authentic self and support your new script of worthiness.
 
MISC. ‘DISORDERS’ and AILMENTS

BDD
 
Obsessive-compulsive behavior

Numbing or escaping in an effort to avoid dealing with an undesirable, expected outcome.   An attempt to block out the pain associated with UPE.

Various Dis-eases and Ailments

Many symptoms of illness are caused by the unconscious mind manifesting pain in the body in an effort to communicate to there are issues to resolve.  A dehypnosis session will locate the unconscious source of one’s illness which when located and resolved will enable one to begin a process of self-healing.  The mind communicates through the body in the form of symptoms as a way of bringing attention to areas needing improvement.  When recognized consciously, one can make healthier choices in areas ranging from diet to lifestyle.  Most importantly, resolving UPE in therapy can create a sense of balance in the body.

Mood Disorders/Despair

Depressed feelings can overcome or debilitate a person when UPE reach a crucial point needing immediate attention.  It often becomes more noticeable when a specific event reinforces one’s unconscious feelings of unworthiness, self-doubt or abandonment.  A depressed person feels hopeless and often does not see a way out of one’s predicament or unhappiness.  One will purposely or unconsciously attract and repeat patterns that result in additional suffering.  Sadness takes over and can temporarily or permanently debilitate a person.  Everything seems to be pointless and takes too much energy, which a depressed person has very little of due to excess UPE weighing them down.  A depressed person often feels alone in the world and unsure of where to go for help or may feel no one can help.  An example of a past-life unconscious script that could lead to despair: "As long as I feel half dead, I know I am alive."
 
Arthritis

Many times arthritis is lifetimes of past torture and defeat with deeply unresolved anger turned internally.

PTSD(Post Traumatic Stress Disorder)


DID (Dissociative Identity Disorder or Multiple Personality Disorder)
