Love from Both Sides: A True Story of Soul Survival and Sacred SexualityThat's my book there, and I reference it because I'm a writer and working hypnotherapist. I read "Same Soul, Many Bodies," after taking Brian's week-long professional training workshop, where he led a group through this powerful process, so I must admit my perspective is different, and not unprejudiced. When I got back to LA, I immediately used what I'd learned on a client whom I'd been seeing for a while. A successful business owner, married for 35 years, he'd grown angry at his wife's inability to shed the 70 pounds she insisted on carrying on her body. My feeling was that he wanted permission to be free of his marriage. When we did the forward progression, he saw himself in 3047, looking down at his own tiny bare feet because he was 7 years old. I said, "Describe what you see." And he saw beautiful tall glass buildings, surrounded by gorgeous gardens -- such a place of beauty. When I asked him to find his mother he said, "I don't need my mother. We are all one." Meaning he was safe and protected. Later on in the progression, he saw himself as a healer -- an energy healer, and then I asked him to find his wife and family. And started to weep, and said, "Oh, it's Marty (his wife now), as she wants to be!" I think he fell in love again, because before he even left my office, he called his wife to tell her what had happened. So that progression helped him focus on the love he felt in the "now." In Brian's wonderful book, he gives many other examples of similar situations, and if you're interested in this kind work, this is great book to read! If you're interested in doing this work, take his workshop. It's so fun!
