Super Specialty of Hypnosis: Past Life Regression Therapy
If Past Life memories (far memories) are treasured within the palace of Collective Unconscious (Akashic Records), we can walk into them through different doorways.
Like
- Mediation
- PLRT (Prati-Prasav)
- Dreams
- Active Imagination
- déjà vus
Clinically the time proven technique to induce an alternated state of consciousness (ASC) is
Hypnosis
And one more reason for us to learn Hypnosis is that PLRT (past life regression therapy) is a specialised form of Age Regression which is again a speciality within the vast field of Hypnosis, so are you ready to now learn everything about Hypnosis?
Important Note: Though we use Hypnosis in PLRT, PLRT is not the same as Hypnotherapy. We will later discuss their differences.
When done correctly Hypnosis is a remarkable process which leverages the interplay between the left and right brain to induce an altered state of consciousness (ASC).
It creates a state of harmony between the conscious and subconscious mind, allowing us to access the depths of our subconscious to access far/Past-Life memories/Akashic Records and tap into its healing and transformative potential.
Hypnosis is a therapeutic technique that involves inducing a state of deep relaxation and heightened focus, known as a hypnotic trance.
The two phenomenons of Hypnosis are:-
1. Hyper-suggestibility
2. Transpersonality *
- Hyper-Suggestibility is the phenomena of Hypnosis where in a much more focused state individuals are much more receptive to suggestions. Along with relaxation, stress reduction, self-improvement, and performance enhancement.
- Transpersonality : The connotation of this word in Amarantos parlance is “Access to deeper layers of consciousness.” And Transpersonal experiences involve a sense of connection to something greater than oneself, such as the collective unconscious, higher states of awareness, or spiritual dimensions. These experiences can be accessed through various practices, including meditation, hypnosis, psychedelic journeys, and deep introspection. The transpersonal realm encompasses expanded states of consciousness and a broader perspective that goes beyond the boundaries of individual identity.
Within the realm of hypnosis, there are specialized techniques that focus on specific aspects of a person’s experiences. Age-regression is one such technique that guides individuals back in time to access memories and experiences from earlier stages of their current life. It allows exploration of childhood memories, significant events, and formative experiences that may have influenced their beliefs, attitudes, and behaviors.
Building upon age-regression, Past Life Regression Therapy (PLRT) takes individuals beyond the boundaries of current lifetime and into the realm of past lives or other incarnations.
It explores the belief or concept that individuals may have lived multiple lifetimes which are known as Sub-personalities, each with its own set of experiences, lessons, and unresolved issues.
By accessing past life memories, PLRT aims to provide insights, healing, and personal transformation by addressing and resolving issues that may have originated in previous lifetimes.
During PLRT, a connection is established with the subconscious mind, primarily residing in the right hemisphere, by employing words, suggestions, and conscious thoughts from the left hemisphere. This interaction bridges the gap between the conscious and subconscious, allowing for a profound exploration of the inner self and a deeper understanding of thoughts, emotions, and behaviors.
As the hypnotic state deepens, the brain releases endorphins, natural painkillers, and produces alpha and Delta brainwaves.
These endorphins induce relaxation and create an experience similar to anesthesia or a dream-like state distinct from regular sleep.
PLRT shares similarities with transitional states between wakefulness and sleep, such as the hypnagogic state and hypnopompic state. It also exhibits parallels with dreaming in terms of brain activity and neurotransmitter function.
Our brain operates in cycles throughout the day, including periods of trance-like states. Recognizing that hypnosis is an everyday phenomenon deeply rooted in our biological rhythms makes it more accessible and relatable to individuals seeking personal growth, self-exploration, and positive change.
The intricate dance between the left and right brain hemispheres unveils a world of possibilities for understanding our consciousness, unlocking the power of our subconscious mind, and harnessing the transformative effects of hypnosis.
So by embracing the harmonious interplay between our logical and creative faculties, we embark on a journey of self-discovery and tap into the vast potential of our mind’s capabilities.
But the traditional hypnosis which is also known as “Authoritarian hypnosis” can invoke resistance, implant false memories, leading into an experience forcefully or due to countertransference. Which is why at Amarantos® the purpose of Hypnosis is only in as much as inducing a trance state which facilitates recollecting past-life memories and analgesia. It stops here, which is why our search for a refined, evolved application of Hypnosis led to the Ericksonian hypnosis, named after Dr. Milton H. Erickson, a renowned psychiatrist and hypnotherapist.
It introduced a more flexible and client-centered approach that addressed the drawbacks of traditional hypnosis.

Freud Denounced Hypnosis as He Progressed In His Practice
Yes, Sigmund Freud, the renowned psychoanalyst, did distance himself from the use of hypnosis in his later years. In the early stages of his career, Freud used hypnosis as a therapeutic technique to help his patients access their unconscious mind and uncover repressed memories or unresolved conflicts. He believed that hypnosis could facilitate the exploration of the unconscious and uncover the root causes of psychological issues.
However, as Freud further developed his psychoanalytic theories and techniques, he gradually moved away from the use of hypnosis. Freud began to emphasize the importance of free association, dream analysis, and the therapeutic relationship in his psychoanalytic approach. He believed that the conscious exploration of thoughts, feelings, and memories in a non-hypnotic state could provide deeper insights into the unconscious mind.
Freud’s shift away from hypnosis was influenced by several factors. One reason was his growing emphasis on the role of transference and the relationship between the therapist and the client. He believed that a strong therapeutic alliance and the exploration of the client’s associations and emotions within the therapeutic relationship were essential for effective psychoanalysis.
Additionally, Freud became concerned about the potential for suggestibility and false memories that could arise during hypnosis. He was cautious about the reliability and accuracy of memories retrieved under hypnosis, particularly when it came to repressed or traumatic experiences.
While Freud himself moved away from the use of hypnosis in his psychoanalytic practice, it’s important to note that his contributions to the field of psychology and psychoanalysis laid the foundation for further exploration and development of hypnotherapy by subsequent researchers and practitioners.
