Life Between Lives© is a hypnotherapeutic journey to the spiritual life that exists between your physical lives.  An amazing and potentially life-altering experience, you access the super-conscious state to reveal what happens in between incarnations in the spirit realm.

This deep hypnotic process is designed to reconnect you with your soul self and your guiding beings, and to thereby reawaken an understanding of your immortal identity.  Through this 3-5 hour session, it is possible to discover a more complete perception of who and what you really are, assisting you to remember your true spiritual nature – the part that is aware of the connection to silent, aware Spirit within you.  That core, eternal self that is always searching for growth and new levels of understanding and the collaboration with other souls is able to find itself here, in this journey.

Using hypnotherapy, the individual is able to achieve complete physical relaxation so that awareness is altered.  In this way, the subconscious and even higher levels of the mind can be accessed.  Through a long induction process, theta brainwave states are achieved and the conscious mind’s interference is reduced and finally contained.  Guided by suggestions given by the therapist, the client perceives and channels their Life Between Lives© in their own unique way through the faculty of their imagination. Connecting to the loving wisdom of the spirit world, the existence and incredible support offered by countless Higher Beings – personal Guides and Teachers – the individual is guided through and between each life.

Recognizing the intuitive nature of LBL facilitation, therapists remain open to spiritual guidance when conducting sessions.  And critical to any therapeutic process, complete confidentiality is honored and maintained for each client, as well as for the spiritual beings who may come forth in an LBL session.

First, a Regression to a Past Life leads up to the final scene and transition into the afterlife. The client may elect which past life to visit by setting their intention; this may serve in discovering the karmic connection with some current life issue.  We are so much more than our physical selves – a combination of the energies, experiences and learnings of countless prior lives – the sum total of our past lives.  Every life our soul has lived has encompassed contrasting experiences that have embodied the variety of lessons our inner, eternal self seeks to learn in its quest for development and perfection.  Accessing this core information pulls together the “loose ends” of the themes and experiences of all the prior incarnations and creates a coherent experience in this life.

The LBL© journey begins with connecting with your Guide or guiding beings upon arrival at the Gateway into the afterlife.  From that point, every journey is unique and different, and goes according to the direction of the client’s personal Guide.  Processing the events of the most immediate life lived, with a debriefing of sorts, may occur at this point.  Depending upon those events, this may be brief or protracted, but always results in bringing comfort and peace to the individual.  There is no judgment in the world of Spirit, and this is repeatedly confirmed while in the LBL©.

Visiting with members of one’s soul companion group is generally a highlight, and identifying who these souls may be today in this life produces greater understanding about current relationships and struggles.  Seeing how many lives have been lived together with certain members spells out patterns and lessons learned, and yet-to-be learned.  Gaining the understanding of how we have each elected to incarnate with one another and to pursue the agreed-upon lessons together is empowering and helps to “just make sense” out of life situations and events.  The possible discovery of one’s soul mate can be a deeply rewarding moment.

Meeting with the Council of Elders is the opportunity to ask the questions of this lifetime.  Learning about one’s purpose in this life and receiving feedback on one’s current direction is deeply gratifying and validating as insights are gained from reviewing this life and others.  The wisdom of these loving Elders is offered for encouragement and support of a fuller and more satisfying current life, and for the progress of one’s soul.  Karmic patterns are explored and respectfully challenged.  There is never judgment, but always kindness and compassion.

These journeys into their afterlife provide vast amounts of spiritual information for those on a spiritual quest, and immense comfort for those feeling lost or uncertain as to their direction and purpose in this life. There is a fundamental human need to feel that one is on the “right path” and living a purposeful life. The LBL© allows for healing, understanding, and an increased sense of meaning and purpose – or confirmation of the path that one is on.  You are also helped to recognize your gifts and the unique contributions that are yours to make in this lifetime.

The energy that comes through from the spirit world provides a felt sense of the reality of this experience, as one feels the emotions connected with it.  A sense of the eternality of the soul and an end to the fear of physical death are natural outcomes of the Life Between Lives© process.  To meet with one’s Guide and to talk with the Elders about the deeper issues of life and to get answers to the questions in one’s heart is a deeply gratifying and life-changing experience.

More than 200 people, in more than 30 countries, have answered the calling of their souls to become TNI-certified (The Newton Institute) facilitators of Life Between Lives© Hypnotherapy.  Avis was trained in 2011 and certified in 2012, and has begun the process of becoming a TNI™ Trainer of other facilitators.

Dr. Michael Newton is the founder of the Life Between Lives© process.  His work with over 7000 souls over a 35 year period formed the material for his three best-selling books, Journey of Souls: Case Studies of Life Between Lives (1994), Destiny of Souls: New Case Studies of Life Between Lives (2000), and Life Between Lives Hypnotherapy (2004) published by Llewellyn. These books have been translated into over 25 languages. In 2001 his second book was awarded “most outstanding metaphysical book of the year” at the Book Exposition of America, which met that year in Chicago.  Memories of the Afterlife, published in 2009, includes intriguing case studies written by members of TNI’s growing global network of Life Between Lives© Therapists and edited by Dr. Newton.
