The concept of having a past life or perhaps several is reincarnation. It is an ancient concept in various cultures the world over. Some of these include Africa, Japan, Australian aborigines as well as some New Age religions and modern Wicca. They believe we have lived past lives and that those past lives influence us today.

Your past life is believed to have been influencing your health, your mental well being, and your social interactions at this present life. And because of this, it will be better for you if you will be able to make yourself stronger and better now by knowing your past life, whether what you were before or settling what you haven’t settled before.

How do we know if we have had past lives or not? Most of us cant but our dreams and visions which are not connected to this life can tell that we do. Reiencarnation believers feel that all souls have a past life (though some feel that there seem to be some new souls added seeing the increased population).There are other signs of having a past life like:

* An overwhelming attraction or love of some culture that you have not experienced and do not relate to your present life For instant, if you adore Mesopotamian art, that era and region may be familiar to you from a past life. You should find out more concerning the art that you find interesting, especially if it is a distinct and rather minor period. It may be a good indicator of a past life.

* Odd or strange reaction whenever you see a particular historical structure or whenever you hear a certain part of the history but when it comes to other historical incidents you do not react at all. This could be because you were once a part of that incident in your past life.

* Allergies or irrational fears that are not triggered by a childhood incident may be an indicator. There are particular physical and psychological issues may indicate a past life experience.

This is of course, not an extensive list. Having such indicators does not mean that you are actually remembering a past life. Observe the patterns of your life, the range of things that you find attractive for some reason. You may be able to tune into some of the likenesses that can aid you in piecing the idea of what your past life or lives may have been like to live.

Past lives can be accessed with hypnotism and self hypnosis as well. A visit to a past life regression specialist may unravel more mysteries for you. The specialist hypnotizes you and puts you in a deep state of relaxation which helps you to tap your subconscious memories.

You may want to consider using the hypnotic techniques that has a relaxation effect, once you made your decision about hypnotism. Allow your self to be comfortable and relaxed for a while before you proceed to past life regression.

There is nothing to worry about from the safety aspect point of view. In a past life regression you experience the shadows and the feelings of a past life as if you are living that life for that moment.

As you begin to recall the past life memories, you will be able to distinguish the good ones from the bad ones through the after-results. Good memories usually trigger good feelings while bad memories irritate your feelings causing you to feel bad. When you wake up, you will notice that it feels like you just had a bad dream. This means that you had a bad life in the past. Do not think that recalling unpleasant memories are bad for you; this is actually your key to know your past life.

What is important is remembering a past life. Once you remember, you are able to move on in this life. Problems occur when there is subconscious suppression of these memories. Acknowledging and accepting what happened in the past can aid you, while experiencing you present life with an entirely different point of view.

The philosophy of Karma says that when we are good examples in one life, while being committed to positive and kindly acts offer us good karma. As a result, for good, we receive good vibrations in our future lives, unless we become bad examples. If this happen, then our personal Karma changes and negative vibrations follow us throughout our future lives, until we suffer from them and then commit to becoming a good example in our own lifetime.

On the other hand, many people feel that no body is really bad and no one needs to suffer for something that he has done in a past life and doesn?t remember. Each new life is a new chance to make new choices. Once you know that there was something that was not good in your past life then you need to let that memory go and forgive yourself and all others involved. This will help you to become free of the past and have a great life.
