Hello everyone! This is quite the volatile line of conversation! I know that this is a contentious and hotly-debated specialty in the world of hypnotherapy, but I can't help but to be extremely fascinated by the idea of delving into one's past lives, both for personal growth and for possible proof of some sort of spiritual framework beyond our daily existence.
I hope I don't incite any short tempers by asking this question: for those of you who do find some value, if not validity, in PLR, what do you think about downloadable sessions? I've seen some decent websites and am curious what criteria you would use to judge a particular session's quality before potentially making a purchase.
Thanks! Spoon |

If you're using it for hypno"therapy", get a live session, not a recorded program.
You will be much happier. |

Thank you for your prompt reply, Patrick! What if I'm using it more as a means of satisfying curiosity and less of a means to deal with emotional issues? The $80 or so per hour that PLR specialists in my area charge is somewhat prohibitive presently. |

$80/hr is cheap, or, they are not in very high demand.
Doing something like this on your own runs the risk of abreaction. Though it's a low risk, as a professional, it would be irresponsible to ignore the risk.
Also, if just satisfying your curiosity... in my mind, doing this on your own will very likely allow doubt to remain in some form... - if your mind made it up; if the wording of the recording contained too much leading; if it did not give you results... etc, etc... too many variables.... especially with something like this.
I sell download hypnosis programs for weight, smoking and stress. And even though I like to sell them, I state in my marketing material, the best results are with a live session. While that doesn't help me sell stuff, I state that because it's true. As it also is in this case.
Mind you, I don't recommend PLR anyway. My work doesn't go there and doesn't need to. But, the same principles apply. :) |

Hi Spoon--
While I agree with Patrick's contention that the likelihood of a pre-recorded session being as effective as an in-person session is slim, based on my experience I do believe that pre-recorded sessions can still be quite valuable. Patrick and others on this forum also point out the potential dangers of past life regression in general, and PLR therapy in particular, and I cannot deny that abreactions occur, nor that some memories that PLR subjects describe are almost certainly fabricated. However, the experiences I've had, as well as those of many of my clients, have intrigued me greatly, and I believe there is much to be said for the desire to explore the process yourself and determine on your own what, if any, validity there is to it.
If you're still interested, I'd invite you to my website, www.pastlifeanswers.com, to take a look at several progressive sessions we've made available for download for anyone who is curious about this process. I certainly can't make any promises or guarantees about what you'll find, but I can at least speak for the quality and objectivity of what we offer.
Good luck with your exploration!

Hello Mattser,
I wanted to clarify my statement regarding abreactions. They can cause problems IF the hypnotist is not properly trained (and/or when done w/o a hypnotist there).
In my practice I use abreactions as a tool. |

Gil tells it like it is, he has many years of experience as a hypnotherapist as well as a hypnosis instructor. He makes a good point and cuts to the chase. I am surprised he posted in here, since he does not work with past life regression, though his point about the script is meaningful.
Patrick is an experienced and knowledgable hypnotherapist and he also has a good point. Many of us are here to help and share what we can about hypnosis, after all that's the topic at hand here, isn't it? |
