Jeanne Avery is a leader in the field of past life regression therapy

These are sessions that people undertake to discover physical and psychological blocks that may exist from some time ago and from pastlives. Through thousands of case studies in the field of regression humanistic astrology, she has encountered profound examples of self-discovery that comes with the newly gained perspective at the close of a regression session.

"I began doing regression sessions in 1967, as a result of my own experience with the process. At that time I was an actress and was hired to perform in a theater doing a full season of summer stock. Doing a new play every week means having to learn a great deal of dialogue in a very short period of time. As with most actors, I was terrified that I might "go up" on stage. (That means, forget one's lines.) I had heard that doing a regression session would help increase one's memory. Far from undergoing such a session with the desire to be helped on a psychological level, I wanted a quick fix.

After about five hours when copious tears were shed, I reached what I, now, call 'the dropped stitch on the thread of consciousness'. On the way to Pennsylvania to begin my stint on stage, everything seemed hysterically funny and I laughed all the way. That joy was simply the outer manifestation of a deep feeling of relief and release. During that time of performing a play a week at night, while rehearsing another one during the day, I watched myself overlook and overcome situations that would have been devastating before my regression session.

I can honestly say that the experience changed my life. Because of my new, and continuing, perspective on my own life I began working with other people. As a pioneer in the field, and feeling somewhat like I was crying out in the dark, I have been gratified to see the new levels of awareness that are prevalent among most people as we enter the new century. Most people do not have to be convinced of the validity of examining the thread of consciousness, since they already believe in reincarnation. My job has become easier, but I am continually gratified by the information that pours forth from people, without any props or aid from hynosis or even deep relaxation techniques, and the resultant healing that occurs.

I believe we have greater and easier access to information stored within the subconscious than we realize. It is truly a joy to help people uncover life changing information that lies within."
