Around the world, many people hold it on faith that we are not limited to one single life. Rather, we are born again and again, experiencing the world a little differently each time. It is a great comfort to realize that we have been here before and that we will be here again. Common sense, otherwise known as that little voice in the back of our heads, tells us that it must be true. This life is not all there is. And there are some easy ways we can explore our past lives to learn more about ourselves.

Take a close look at yourself. Start keeping a journal if you don’t have one already. Write down everything that happens to you, even if it does not seem important at the time. Events might come up again later and gain more significance through repetition. Strong emotions are one thing to look for when you are reading your entries. They may suggest a link to the past or, when put together, create a clear picture of a past life.

Make lists. Think about the things that are important to you, the things that create a strong emotional reaction. Think about your own personality, the way you do things and the things you wish you could do. Focus on the things you really love and the things you truly hate. From the way your brother tickled you to the tick of the clock, from your that little quirk of your first lover to the adorable way the cat curls up in your lap, the littlest things, when taken together, can have great meaning.

Do not forget your dreamworld! Write down your dreams in as much detail as you can remember. Dreams can be about the present and the future but they can also offer information about the past. The images we see when we sleep are often potent symbols, symbols whose meanings we can only discern over time. It is all about keeping track, writing it down and reading it over later.

We can help our dreams speak more clearly through the power of positive suggestion. By reminding ourselves, just before we go to sleep, that tonight we are going to explore our past lives in our dreams, we cue the subconscious to get busy. Then, while we dream, the fruits of that unconscious labor appear before our wondering eyes, ripe for the plucking. As in all things, practice makes perfect. Keep reminding yourself and then writing down your dreams and soon you will hold the key that will unlock the door to your past, present and future.

Another way to find keys to the past is through meditation. If you have time, take a few hours each week and sit quietly with yourself. Breathe deeply and relax. Focus on your inner self and let your mind wander free. Just sit and observe. Remember what you see and record it in your journal.

You can also prod your mind during the day as you go about your regular chores. In the supermarket, the bank, walking down the street. These are all times when the brain is idling along, not doing anything much. Remind it that you want to know all about your past lives and then forget about it again. At first you will have to pay close attention to find the answers to your questions, but soon they will become easier to spot.

There are people who can help you if you are not immediately drawn to conclusions from all this writing. Trained past-life regression therapists are certified to help you experience past lives and then help you interpret what they mean for you in the present. Two groups, the International Association for Regression and Research Therapies or the International Association of Past Life Therapists offer certification for these professionals so that you can rest assured they know what they are doing. They also have listings of their members so you can find one close to where you live, or even online.

There is no reason not to try it. The experience can be helpful whether or not you believe in reincarnation. You may find out some things you did not know about yourself.
