An Unforgettable Past Life Regression Experience with
a Young Woman from Japan
I have been practicing Past Life Regression Therapy for
almost two decades, and during these years I have witnessed many fascinating
experiences. Yet, every now and then, a case comes along that leaves me
thinking about the mysterious ways in which life brings people and
circumstances together.
Recently, I had one such experience.
What makes this story particularly interesting is not only
what happened during the regression, but also how this young woman found her
way to me in the first place.
A Remarkable Journey to India
The young woman was from Japan. She is currently doing a
course in the Netherlands, where students have the opportunity to choose a
country in which to spend six months.
She chose India.
She arrived in India on 7th August and was staying in
Udupi.
Quite unexpectedly, she happened to be staying in a house
where my husband and I had previously stayed during one of our Couchsurfing
experiences.
And there, on a bookshelf, was my book on Reiki.
She picked it up.
Although she was not very fluent in English, she became so
interested in the book that she actually finished reading it within a single
day!
While discussing the book with her host, she mentioned her
interest in it. The host then told her,
"I know the author very well. She has stayed with
us, and we have also stayed at her home."
The young woman was immediately intrigued.
She said that she would like to experience a Past Life
Regression.
And what happened next was incredibly quick.
She had arrived in India on the 7th.
On the 15th of August, just eight days later, she was
sitting with me in Belgaum for her Past Life Regression session.
Sometimes life creates connections in ways we could never
plan ourselves.
The Hall of Doors
During a Past Life Regression, I often use an imagery
technique in which I guide the person to imagine walking into a long hall.
There are many doors on either side.
I tell them that one of these doors represents a lifetime
that is relevant for them to explore at that particular time.
They don't have to choose intellectually.
They simply allow themselves to notice which door seems to
be calling or pulling them.
Something very unusual happened with this young woman.
She entered the hall and told me:
"I want to go through two doors."
This had never happened to me before.
I simply told her, "That's perfectly fine. We can
explore them one at a time."
And so we did.
Her Fascination with Stones
One of the things she had always experienced in her present
life was a deep fascination with stones.
Since childhood, she had loved collecting stones.
She was naturally drawn to them and would collect them
whenever she found interesting ones.
During one of the regression experiences, she found herself
in another lifetime.
She experienced herself dying.
She was alone, outdoors, in an open space.
Then she witnessed something extraordinary.
She saw her body after death gradually disintegrating and
becoming incorporated into the stones around her.
For her, this experience seemed to provide an answer to
something she had always wondered about:
Why am I so deeply fascinated by stones?
Of course, Past Life Regression experiences are deeply
subjective, and they should not automatically be interpreted as historically
verifiable memories.
But from a therapeutic and symbolic perspective, the
experience can sometimes be profoundly meaningful.
For this young woman, the connection between her lifelong
attraction to stones and what she experienced during regression was striking.
It gave her a completely new perspective on something that
had been part of her life since childhood.
The Most Beautiful Part of the Session
But there was another aspect of the session that touched me
even more.
As we continued, she began experiencing scenes from her
life—both from her present life and from the lives she was exploring.
And what was remarkable was that she wasn't seeing only
painful or difficult experiences.
She was experiencing beautiful moments.
She was enjoying them.
She was feeling the emotions associated with those
experiences.
As I watched her, I could see her face changing.
Her face began to glow.
There was happiness in her expression.
She was smiling as she experienced these beautiful moments.
As a therapist, watching that transformation was deeply
satisfying for me.
So often, people come for regression because they are
struggling with fears, unexplained emotions, patterns or difficulties.
But this session reminded me that our inner journey does not
have to be only about searching for pain or trying to find something wrong.
Sometimes it is also about remembering the beauty.
Remembering joy.
Remembering love.
Remembering experiences that make us feel alive.
What Stayed with Me
This session was memorable for another reason.
Look at the sequence of events.
A young woman from Japan chooses India for her six-month
stay.
She chooses Udupi.
She happens to stay in a house where my husband and I had
previously stayed.
She notices my Reiki book.
She reads it in a day.
She discovers that her host knows me personally.
She decides that she wants a Past Life Regression.
And within just eight days of arriving in India, she finds
herself sitting in front of me in Belgaum.
Was it coincidence?
Was it synchronicity?
Was it simply a series of seemingly unrelated events coming
together?
I don't think we always need to have an immediate answer.
Sometimes it is enough to simply observe how beautifully
life unfolds.
Every Journey Is Unique
After nearly two decades of working with Past Life
Regression, I have learned that every session is different.
Some people encounter difficult experiences.
Some discover patterns that help them understand aspects of
their present life.
Some experience symbolic imagery.
And sometimes, as in this case, a person encounters
something completely unexpected.
The purpose, in my view, is not to become attached to
proving whether every image or experience represents a literal historical past
life.
The deeper value can be in what the experience reveals to
the person about themselves—their emotions, patterns, fears, attractions,
relationships and inner world.
For this young woman, the session brought an intriguing
insight into her lifelong fascination with stones.
But perhaps even more importantly, she experienced something
beautiful:
the joy of her own inner journey.
And for me, that was equally precious.
As I watched her face glow with happiness while she
experienced those moments, I felt grateful to have been able to accompany her
on that journey.
Sometimes, we don't know where a book will take us.
We don't know where a journey will take us.
And we certainly don't know where a single curious thought
will take us.
But perhaps life has its own way of bringing us exactly
where we need to be.
A book on a shelf.
A chance meeting.
A journey across countries.
A regression into another time.
And one unforgettable experience.
Perhaps some journeys are meant to happen.
We simply have to be open enough to recognize them when they
do.
