Humans are curious in nature.
When we want to have a deeper understanding of ourselves, but can’t find the answers to our questions in the outside world, we turn inwards.

Many of us wants to know if we have lived before and what sort of experiences we have had during past lives.
If each human soul existed before conception and inhibits a body for each lifetime, then we are all most likely born with knowledge from previous lives that is suppressed at birth.
Attainment of knowledge then is not a process of acquiring new knowledge, but rather a process of remembering previously known information.

Why do we want to remember our past incarnations and how this knowledge may be relevant to what is going on in our lives now?
It is may be useful to remember the circumstances of our previous lives, mistakes we once made and lessons we learnt is to help us better understand ourselves and all the repeating patterns in our current life. By remembering our past lives we learn about the laws of the Universe and gain understanding of how to live our current lives in accordance with these laws.

Instead of straggling with the same problems life time after life time we can learn from our previous experiences and live our current lives in accordance with universal laws of Love, Truth and Abundance. That will certainly change our present experiences for the better.

To learn from past positive and negative experiences we first need to remember what they were.
Accessing and using this knowledge can provide us with different perspective on our lives.
Most of our problems and negative life situations are not random events. Often they interrelate and have the same root causes.
For example, when someone is unable to create lasting and loving relationships or manifest success in life, it is interesting to see if they followed the same patterns during their previous life times.

If someone is faced with the same negative scenarios life time after life time it is not coincidental.
Somewhere along the way this Soul got out of energetic balance and is not functioning in accordance with the Universal laws.
These energetic problems could manifest themselves in discomfort in the physical body or inability to fully manifest your true self. This creates repetitive negative patterns in life.
Most of the time we are even not aware of these energetic restrains and accept our misfortunes as natural facts of life.
Finding out and understanding information about our past lives does not magically resolve all our problems.
However, it can guide us on our journey of discovery of why we have certain problems and how to resolve them. If we know what the real causes of our problems are, we are on our way to recovery and energetic freedom.

So, how do we find out what have happened to us during past incarnations?

Some people are intuitively drawn to certain places or people without really understanding why.
They can feel different in a strange way around these places and people but too frightened to try figure out why.

Others can tap in to their previous incarnations either during sleep or meditation.
Sometimes it can happen at will, sometimes spontaneously, without effort or desire.

Certain people, who feel a need to explore their past lives, successfully regress under hypnosis.

But there is one more way to learn about our previous incarnations – it could be done through an access to the Akashic Records.
