Is It Memory or Metaphor? The Science and Spirit of Past-Life Regression (Ep. 224)

Episode 224 Published 2 months ago
Description

In this episode, I sit down with certified clinical hypnotherapist and medical hypnosis specialist Craig Meriwether of Sacred Mystery Hypnotherapy to explore the science and spirituality behind hypnotherapy, past-life regression, natal (in‑utero) regression, and life-between-lives work. We unpack how hypnosis actually functions as a natural shift in brainwave states—not mind control—and why healing can occur whether a regression is a literal past-life memory or a symbolic construct of the subconscious. Craig shares compelling cases, including trauma relief, pain reduction, and powerful insights that often emerge in the “healing place” of the soul realm. I also reflect on my own recent regression session with Craig—what it felt like, what surprised me, and the themes that surfaced for my life today—emphasizing the practical takeaways around patterns, purpose, family, and the pull of “home.”

We also cover who should and shouldn’t try regression work, the difference between fun curiosity and therapeutic intent, how Zoom sessions can be as effective as in-person work, and why integrating the experience afterward (recordings, transcripts, journaling) matters. If you’re curious about past lives, the mechanics of consciousness, or simply want a grounded take on whether this stuff can genuinely help, this conversation delivers insight, skepticism, and hope in equal measure.
