Past Life Regression



Rev. Ellyn is a past life regressionist who studied with Dolores Cannon. The purpose of the technique is for the subject to release greater understanding and healing of their present life.

The following was my response to a letter from JR. She wanted to know what hypnosis, (regression is a form of trance or hypnotic state), entailed and what types of problems it could address:

Hello JR...
I cannot think of a problem with which I would not assist as people actually heal themselves... their higher self or soul knows exactly what it needs to promote it's healing and I help them to allow that to happen.

Some people are afraid of hypnosis because they think someone else 'takes over' their consciousness in some way or another. Let me assure you that it is not possible. You are in charge of your life and healing in every moment. It is your subconscious, a part of you that you only vaguely 'hear' , but is very present in your life. You simply become more aware of it through hypnosis. This 'part' of you has many names. It is aware and healthy and helpful.
