What a Mayan Past Life Taught My Client About Her Fear - Case study

Not many people know this, but Past Life Regression is one of the most powerful healing tools I offer in my energetic healing sessions.
And it’s not for entertainment. It’s not a party trick.
When used intentionally, Past Life Regression can be a potent catalyst for clearing deeply embedded patterns that no other modality seems to touch.

Which brings me to a client case study I wanted to share with you.
Shared with full permission, of course.

For confidentiality, let’s call my client Jane.

Jane had lived with a debilitating phobia most of her life, a phobia of gastro and vomiting.
Now with young children, it became even more consuming.
Not only did she experience daily anxiety, but she was hyper aware of outbreaks in her community, friends, and family, to the point where she would pack up and leave situations at the first sign of illness.

Jane had been working regularly with a hypnotherapist to manage her anxiety and phobia, but they both felt like they were missing something, like the root of the issue was hiding just out of reach.
That’s when Jane and I decided to explore Past Life Regression.

Before I take any client into this work, I make it clear this isn’t about confirming past lives or proving anything.
We set the intention to access the time, place, or energetic pattern that will bring healing, whether it’s a past life, symbolic story, or a thread from the collective consciousness.
The meaning, the healing, and the shift, that’s what matters.

And if you don’t believe in past lives, that is completely fine too.
These sessions can still act as a powerful way for the subconscious to bring forward the story that helps us understand what the energy is doing and how it is showing up in your life right now.
Whether it is your own soul memory, the collective story, or symbolic imagery, the process gives your mind and body the opportunity to make sense of the patterns and blocks you are experiencing, and allows space for healing to occur.

The Session

I created a sacred healing space for Jane and guided her into relaxation using my singing bowls.
As the energy settled, I received a strong image of an Indigenous South American woman clutching her child in the forest. But I held this quietly, I never feed clients information upfront, preferring to let them explore without influence.

Jane had already started processing before the session, hearing the words "Gone, gone, all gone" looping in her mind.
As we moved into the regression, that same message came forward again. She became visibly emotional and distressed, and we paused to make sure she felt safe and supported to continue.
Important, clients always have full control and can stop the process at any point. Safety first.

Jane chose to continue. She sensed herself as a woman, possibly Mayan, returning to her tribe to find total devastation.
Everyone, everything, gone.
Even the baby on her back had passed.

She found one tent still standing. Inside was an elder, staring into the fire, holding a stick, repeating the same despairing message,
"Very bad. All gone."

Feeling like she couldn’t do anything more for him, she turned toward a pyramid structure, knowing she needed to go to the top, to the place of positive energy.

At the summit, she saw the barren land stretched before her, believing a disease had wiped everything out.
I guided her to visualise a golden ball of healing light above her and the pyramid. She sensed a male presence behind her as the light poured through her, through the pyramid, and out across the devastated land.

She allowed herself to be filled with the Light, and when she turned, the male figure smiled and lifted into the Light.
"Job's done," she said.

But when she turned back, she was met with darkness.
She didn’t know where to go next. She simply repeated,
"Job's done."

We gently brought her back to her safe place, grounded her energy, and checked if anything more was needed.

It was here that something profound happened.
She felt someone sitting beside her. When she turned to face them, it was herself.
Her shadow side.

Her shadow had detached from her, afraid to see what was really going on inside.
And because it was separate, no matter how much healing light she called in, her shadow side couldn’t receive it.
No integration. No real resolution.

It was time to face her fears.
I guided Jane to breathe in the light, to invite her shadow side back into her body, integrating the parts of her she had been keeping separate.
Afterward, she felt lighter, clearer, and more whole.

Jane's Review

In my life I feel pretty balanced both physically and emotionally, I just have one slight kink, a phobia that is triggered by anxiety.
Over the years I have employed all sorts of traditional healing modalities in search of a resolution. For me, the most effective I have found is hypnotherapy.
My hypno has been able to successfully reduce my anxiety issues, and yet the phobia still remained. I decided to branch out.

On Monday last week I experienced my first past life regression, which I entered not really knowing what to expect. My trust and faith in Renee and her skills and abilities put me at ease, in that, I knew nothing would go wrong, nothing could hurt me.

We did a grounding meditation and she took me to a safe place of my own design, a place I still return to when I need some time out.
From there she then took me on a trip down memory lane, a memory that was long forgotten.

The actual experience itself was like watching a dream unfold before my eyes although I was awake.
Daydreaming is different, it tends to be self directed by conscious thought that sends you off in different directions of pondering. The regression was more like a movie in which I played the main character but was not the director. Renee, herself did some subtle direction, in so far as she kept me moving forward in the movie.

As an example, after I discovered what I needed and my job was done, I wasn’t sure what came next. My first conscious thought was to turn around and go back the way I had come only to discover I was walking into black space. Renee asked me where I was and I responded with some confusion. She asked if I could see a light, sure enough there it was to my left.
With Renee’s gentle guidance my confusion evaporated and I was able to continue the session.

What I experienced during the session was not happy, it involved a lot of sadness, loss, desolation, isolation and feelings of hopelessness. It ended with the realisation that there is always hope, and that life will always continue. The healing I experienced was immediate, intense and is still in effect today.
It felt like something had been clarified, a wholeness of being that wasn’t there before.

A ripple effect has continued to touch other parts of my life. Example, I experienced rather a large hormonal unblocking a few days later and oddly, my sense of smell has increased dramatically, I now have a super power that allows me to sniff out, from across the room, if my kids really have brushed their teeth.

I no longer have the constant aches and pains that I would normally feel which I credit to this wholeness of being.
My osteopath says my body is more integrated than it has ever been in the past,
whatever you have done in the past two weeks since I last saw you has worked wonders.
I just nodded knowingly.

As for the phobia, I still experience moments of mild anxiety that trigger the thoughts directly related to the phobia, but the fear and dread that is normally attached to those thoughts has disappeared.
I feel I am no longer confined by my phobia and I have a newfound sense of freedom from a burden, which is intensely refreshing.

I believe the healing session I had with Renee was the key that unlocked something that desperately needed resolution.
I also received an amazing awareness of what it means to be held in a sacred space, a gift I thank her for every day.
I know I can confidently put my emotional and energetic health completely in her hands with the knowledge that they will be tenderly nurtured and returned replenished, strong and ready to continue living life.

Renee is truly one of the most beautiful souls I have the privilege of knowing.

Conclusion?

I can see there has been a shift, there still may need a tad more work to do in regards to releasing the phobia completely, but still, there is a shift.
The symbolism though is what I feel is the most relevant and there are many layers and levels to this story that not only relates to the phobia but also to another personal challenge that Jane is going through.

It not only provides Jane with information of what may have triggered this phobia on a past life level but may also provide her with another awareness in regards to how she was dealing with her fears and how her survival mode was functioning.

Jane has allowed her experience and energy to process and has come to the conclusion that to analyse or dissect it takes away from the whole experience she went through and sees it as,
it is what it is,
and is purely going with feeling the benefits of her sacred journey.

Have you had a past life regression?
