Did Jung believe in reincarnation? – Roger Woolger – Is. 35
Did Jung believe in reincarnation? Roger Woolger In the years between 1920 and 1940 Jung immersed himself in many classic Indian, Chinese, and Buddhist texts on Yoga and meditation. Tentatively he began to introduce some of the concepts from these writings into his maturing vision of a psychology that would eventually encompass both the personal and the transpersonal levels of the psyche. Most notable is his proposal of the archetype of the Self, the transcendent image of the divine that lives within everyone. The introduction of this term was inspired by the Hindu concept of the atman, translated variously as the “eternal Self,” the “Higher Self,” or the “Oversoul” by other writers. The concept of the Self is first elaborated in Jung’s work Psychological Types (1921). From 1932 to 1940 Jung gave regular seminars at the Zürich Federal Polytechnic (Eidgenossische Technische Hochschule). In 1933, as well as elaborating on his

Jung’s Self-Reports of his Paranormal Experiences Athanasios Komianos The sign over the entrance of Jung’s estate. VOCATUS ATQUE NON VOCATUS DEUS ADERIT (Called or not called God will be there) This phrase is inscribed over the door of Carl Jung’s estate in Küsnacht, Zürich. I had the privilege to visit this place in April of 2025. The house was built in 1909 by Jung and his wife Emma when she inherited from her father and IWC after his sudden death. They bought the land from an orphanage and built the house as they dreamed by the shores of lake Zürich. As of 2018 it has turned into a museum and people can visit the house, the library and the study of Jung which is preserved as it was at the time when he died in 1961. Along with two colleagues, Martin Roesch and Katya Kobzeva we had the privilege
A Case of Chronic Bruxism – Leopoldo Ceballos – Is. 35
A Case of Chronic Bruxism: Emotional Integration and Elimination of Persistent Symptoms Leopoldo Ceballos del Castillo (Spain) Abstract: This paper presents the clinical case of a 36-year-old woman with chronic bruxism who experienced significant symptom improvement following a regression therapy process. Through the evocation of a traumatic childhood scene, a pattern of muscular tension associated with perfectionism, excessive self-control, emotional repression, and guilt was identified. The intervention subsequently included a phase of somatic integration through active imagination and visualization, following Martin Roesch’s technique. Clinical implications are discussed regarding the relationship between emotional memory, neural plasticity, and psychological compartmentalization. Keywords: Regression therapy, bruxism, guided imagery, symbolic visualisation. Introduction Regression therapy is a form of deep psychotherapy that enables patients to access memories stored in the unconscious in order to identify and heal past experiences that continue to negatively affect their present lives. Through expanded states of consciousness, the client may
Healing Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder Through Regression Therapy – Gina Rodríguez – Is. 35
Healing Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder Through Regression Therapy: Transgenerational Trauma, Intrauterine Life, Errant Souls and Energetic Reintegration Gina Rodríguez (Spain) Abstract – This case report describes the resolution of an obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) resistant to conventional treatment through conscious regression therapy. Laura (pseudonym) experienced persistent intrusive thoughts about sexual abuse by her father, with no real basis. Throughout three regression sessions, deep layers of trauma were addressed: sexual abuse in a past life linked to her family lineage, traumatic memories from intrauterine life with the presence of errant souls and intrusive entities that reinforced the obsessive idea. Protocols of soul release and elevation, recovery of soul fragments and complete energetic reintegration were applied. This therapeutic process resulted in sustained symptom relief and enhanced emotional well-being. Introduction Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) often presents complex psychological roots and may resist conventional therapies when deep unresolved trauma exists. Conscious regression therapy is a structured process
A Lesson from a Golden Soul – Nacho Romón – Is. 35
A Lesson from a Golden Soul Nacho Romón (Spain) Abstract – This case study explores a notable instance of transpersonal therapy involving a grieving medical doctor, Antonio, who experienced profound emotional healing following the perceived spiritual manifestation of his deceased spouse. The session, initially marked by scepticism and resistance, evolved into a deeply transformative encounter when the patient’s late wife appeared in a visionary form—a radiant golden sphere—and initiated a spontaneous and emotionally charged dialogue. The therapeutic process combined elements of intuitive perception, guided communication, and symbolic ritual, enabling the patient to confront unresolved grief, release a binding “eternal love” pact, and ultimately facilitate the soul’s transition into the light. The intervention illustrates the potential for non-ordinary states of consciousness, intuitive resonance, and spiritually integrative practices to foster psychological and existential healing in cases of complicated grief. The experience also led to a six-year collaboration between the author and

The Case of Daisy and her deeply hidden truth. Benevolent Spirit Channelling & Automatic Writing Ricardo Feix (Brazil) Abstract- This clinical case describes the treatment of Daisy, a 39-year-old woman diagnosed with borderline personality disorder, substance addiction, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). She sought Transpersonal and Regression Hypnosis to resolve a deeply troubling family concern—whether her husband had sexually abused her daughter in the past. After working through Daisy’s personal traumas, the therapist conducted a Regression Hypermnesia session, guiding her back to the night when the alleged abuse might have occurred. However, Daisy had been under the influence of drugs that night after a party, which prevented her from fully accessing or connecting with the memory. Still uncertain and seeking clarity, Daisy requested a mediumship session to communicate with her deceased grandfather. During a deep trance, she claimed to establish contact with his spirit, who—through automatic writing—confirmed her suspicions
My experience and subjective understanding of Karma – Sonia Tapiador – Is. 35
My experience and subjective understanding of Karma. Sonia Tapiador (Spain) Editor’s Note: In last year’s issue there was a discussion by our editors on the topic of Karma. In this issue Sonia Tapiador from Spain is sharing with us her own understanding of Karma. Introduction I was born into grief, as my father died while I was still in my mother’s womb. Experiencing the absence of the masculine figure so early in life generated my need for a constant reason to live, and the need to “search for answers.” My connection to grief and death endowed me with a heightened awareness, extrasensory perception, and special sensitivity. From a very young age, I was clear about my life’s mission, drawn by a deep interest in the paranormal, the unseen and the hereafter. Here follows what I think Karma is, as I understand it through my personal experiences. Wheel of
Forcefields: Regression’s Younger Brother, Stronger Brother – Hans TenDam – Is. 35
FORCEFIELDS: REGRESSION’S YOUNGER BROTHER, STRONGER BROTHER Hans TenDam “Forcefields” is an inner exploration modality. More than 90% of the sensory modalities we use in regressions is visual. Visual impressions provide the story. We use them to elicit thoughts and emotions and working through them elicits hopefully cathartic experiences, often life changing. After all, if the client’s life doesn’t change, what are we doing? Logically, sounds, auditive impressions, could fulfill a similar function. In practice they don’t. After a few weak tries, I rarely ask for sounds. It may be to hear a voice. Even more rarely, we ask for noises in the situation, or music. I found a new entry, a new dimension, a new world if you like. What are we doing now as regressionists? Reliving the beginning of problems, discovering what really happened and how it affected us and why it remained unsolved, unhealed.
Consciousness Surviving Death Research – Andy Tomlinson, Reena Kumarasingham – Is. 35
CONSCIOUSNESS SURVIVING DEATH RESEARCH Abstract – Understanding consciousness has been the subject of much discussion over human history. The western medical model suggests that it is located physically in the brain yet this cannot explain experiences such as terminal lucidity, shared death experiences, telepathy, mediumship, out of body experiences and past life regression. This article covers the authors research using 436 near-death experiences with 537 between-life spiritual regressions (BLSR). The similarity between these two completely different methodologies provides some of the strongest research to date that consciousness survives death and reincarnates. Andy Tomlinson, Reena Kumarasingham Consciousness background Perhaps a definition of consciousness can be described as what we experience with our senses. The positive and negative emotions of life and the experience of images, ideas, words, and thoughts. But how does this explain telepathic communication? Montague Ullman, a psychiatrist and parapsychologist, launched the Maimonides Dream Laboratory in 1962. An
Evaluating the Efficacy of Regression Therapy for Physical Pain- Andy Tomlinson, Sam Jones, Jessie Stringer, Heather Walkley – Is.35
Evaluating the Efficacy of Regression Therapy for Physical Pain: A Mixed-Methods Study of Client Case Reports Andy Tomlinson, Sam Jones, Jessie Stringer, Heather Walkley. Abstract— This study evaluates the therapeutic effects of regression therapy on clients experiencing physical pain, using data from 865 cases recorded by trainees of the Past Life Regression Academy over a ten-year period. Quantitative analysis of Subjective Units of Distress (SUDs) scores before and after therapy sessions demonstrated statistically significant reductions in reported pain across seven categories. Qualitative data, including a detailed case study, illustrate the emotional and symbolic depth of client experiences. While limitations exist due to the nature of self-reported data and non-randomised sampling, the findings indicate regression therapy’s potential for rapid and profound healing effects. Keywords: past life regression, hypnotherapy, psychodrama, traumatic memories, chronic pain, body healing Introduction The term ‘regression’ refers to a process of going back to an earlier event, and

Assessing the Effectiveness of Regression Therapy in Addressing a Broad Spectrum of Psychological and Physical Issues Bé Groen1, Ingrid Klooster2 and Paul Hooijdonk3 1 Amsterdam University Medical Centers, University of Amsterdam, Amsterdam, the Netherlands 2Auora, Hardewijk, The Netherlands e-mail: [email protected] 3Paul Hooijdonk, Breda, The Netherlands, e-mail: [email protected] Abstract This study investigated the effectiveness of Regression Therapy (RT) in treating a wide spectrum of psychopathological and Medically Unexplained Symptoms/complaints (MUS). A single-blinded outcome trial was conducted with a large cohort of 169 subjects, who completed the validated Brief Symptom Index-53 (BSI-53) questionnaire before treatment and at two months and four months post-initiation. Fifteen experienced RT therapists delivered standardized therapy. Results showed a significant and substantial decrease in BSI-53 total scores, from 0.91 to 0.48 after four months of treatment, closely approaching the normative value for the Dutch population (0.42). The study yielded a large clinical effect size (Hedges’ g =
Relationship Dialogue for Grief Management – Neha Pandya, Riri G Trivedi, Hemalatha Ramani, Gunjan Y Trivedi – Is. 35
Relationship Dialogue for Grief Management Neha Pandya*, Riri G Trivedi, Hemalatha Ramani, Gunjan Y Trivedi Affiliation: Wellness Space *Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract: Relationships are fundamental to human well-being, and their loss can cause profound psychological pain. While regression-based therapeutic methods show promise in processing grief, this study specifically evaluated the effectiveness of Relationship Dialogue, an evidence-based psychotherapy approach designed to address unresolved grief through regression to loss-related memories and structured dialogue. Background: Relationships are vital for human well-being. Losing someone significant leads to significant psychological pain. Recent developmental and therapy models have shown the promise of regression-based methods (which help in processing emotions related to the event in present life) in dealing with unresolved grief. Objective: This study evaluated the effectiveness of Relationship Dialogue, an evidence-based psychotherapy approach that uses regression to grief-related memories and structured dialogue to process unresolved emotions, in reducing emotional distress associated with grief. Methods: A

The Logistics of Karma by Athanasios Komianos “For the spirit of a human being arrives highly gifted. By no means do we learn everything, but bring it with us.” F.W. Reimer The Logistics of Karma Karma in perspective and the five lessons toolkit. Which is the most successful word exported from India? For me I think it is the word, Karma. Many may argue about Indian cuisine. I think they are probably wrong, Indian cuisine is superb, but the word Karma conquered the whole world. Why did Karma become so successful? It did so because: It won a place in our heart. It resonated with us. It made sense. Some further modest speculations To accept the concept of Karma we have to accept the existence of nonlocal consciousness. Most of us are blind both to our deeds and to our fate… Most of us incarnate to work out leftovers

Beyond Karma By Vitor Rodrigues I’m looking for the face I had Before the world was made W.B. Yeats 1933 All the world’s a stage, And all the men and women merely players. They have their exits and their entrances, And one man in his time plays many parts, His acts being seven ages William Shakespeare I would say Karma is an inevitable theme for regression therapists. We constantly deal with the way past events, thoughts, feelings, connections, and actions show up as effects in the present life of our clients. They might be all sorts of unfinished businesses, about the clients in their past selves (from this or other lives), other people, places, objects, experiences. They might concern past unfulfilled wishes, hatreds and fantasies, traumas; they might concern incomplete plans, attachments of many kinds. To a lot of us, it doesn’t matter if
How Karma seems to work: Insights from Past-Life Regressions – Hans TenDam. Is.34
How Karma seems to work: Insights from Past-Life Regressions by Hans TenDam Karma is an old, even ancient, Hindu concept. It has a somewhat similar function as ‘sin’ in Judeo-Christian beliefs: something to be warned against. If you do wrong, you have to pay for that. Not in the afterlife, but in your next life. What do we find in regressions? We find both positive and negative conditions and influences from previous lives, that we loosely call dharma and karma. Karma is also used as a name for any connection between the present life and past lives. The following is my take on things. It is based on an ample experience with regressions. I estimate that today about 90% of my sessions include past-life experiences. But that doesn’t need to be representative of regression work in general. It most probably isn’t. I have tried to reflect only my experiences
Effectiveness of “healing the child within” techniques for well-being, anxiety, and depression. Trivedi G. & R, et al. Is. 34
Effectiveness of “healing the child within” techniques for well-being, anxiety, and depression Riri G Trivedi, Gunjan Y Trivedi, Neha Pandya, Hemalatha Ramani Society for Energy & Emotions, Wellness Space, Ahmedabad, India. Abstract— Adverse childhood experiences (ACE), based on data from more than 0.25 million subjects, were found to be linked to an increased risk for adult anxiety and depression, as well as mental health issues. ACEs were observed to leave a lasting imprint on the minds and bodies of individuals. The methodology known as Healing the Child Within, involving regression to specific ACE events to address the mind-body imprint, is explored. By addressing these imprints, the study aimed to reduce anxiety and depression and, thus, overall well-being. Keywords: Healing the Child Within, Adverse Childhood Experiences, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, Inner Child Integration Therapy, Childhood Trauma. Aim: The study’s objective was to evaluate the effectiveness of Healing the Child Within methods on

The case studies involved additional assessments of childhood trauma inventory (using Adverse Childhood Experience – 16 questions) and PTSD assessment. The approach, consistent with the project objectives (improving well-being & sleep quality, lowering depression & anxiety), explored qualitative insights by several therapists, along with quantitative assessments. Several therapists across 4 locations (India-three locations and Japan) contributed to these case studies using the “healing the child within” process. Each case study represents a major presenting problem followed by
Hypnotic Regression Therapy (HRT) – David Furlong. Is.34
Hypnotic Regression Therapy (HRT) A Mixed Method Phenomenological Study Exploring the Correlates between HRT, Altered States of Consciousness, and Transpersonal Psychology David Furlong PhD Abstract – This article explores Hypnotic Regression Therapy (HRT) as a therapeutic modality that leverages Altered States of Consciousness (ASC) to enhance individuals’ sense of well-being and personal transformation. Using a mixed-methods phenomenological approach, the study investigates the lived experiences of participants who underwent HRT sessions, focusing on their motivations, session dynamics, and outcomes. HRT integrates principles from transpersonal psychology and hypnotherapy to access subconscious material, often revealing symbolic, episodic, or archetypal content. Key findings highlight the diverse therapeutic benefits of HRT, including emotional healing, spiritual growth, and increased self-awareness. Participants reported significant improvements in psychological well-being, with experiences ranging from symbolic resolutions of trauma to transcendental encounters with higher states of consciousness. Despite scepticism about past-life regression and concerns over the reliability of hypnotically retrieved

Can Regression Therapy contribute to healing even in chronical diseases like cancer? Martin Roesch Is. 33
Can Regression Therapy contribute to healing even in chronical diseases like cancer? by Martin Roesch Abstract—In this article Martin Roesch is presenting a case in what appeared to be an epigenetic relation – communicating directly with the cancer cells. It is explicitly shown how imaginary travel into the body with the objective to establish a communication with organs or cells appears to be a powerful mechanism to potentially detect hidden causes that may lead to the development of chronical diseases like cancer. Introduction Cancer is recognized to generate itself out of a multi-fold variety of potential causes. In this contribution I want to focus on a potential cause that is widely considered to be beyond the reach of an individual patient: her/his genetic disposition. The key element in the presented case is an imagined body travel to the cancerous cells themselves. And a reader with little time available may jump
