About the author

Brian L. Weiss

61 books2,157 followers
As a traditional psychotherapist, Dr. Brian Weiss was astonished and skeptical when one of his patients began recalling past-life traumas that seemed to hold the key to her recurring nightmares and anxiety attacks. His skepticism was eroded, however, when she began to channel messages from "the space between lives," which contained remarkable revelations about Dr. Weiss's family and his dead son. Using past-life therapy, he was able to cure the patient and embark on a new, more meaningful phase of his own career.

A graduate of Columbia University and Yale Medical School, Brian L. Weiss M.D. is Chairman Emeritus of Psychiatry at the Mount Sinai Medical Center in Miami.

Dr. Weiss maintains a private practice in Miami. In addition, Dr. Weiss conducts national and international seminars and experiential workshops as well as training programs for professionals.

Book was actually 4 stars and repeats most of the information from his previous books. The reason I gave this a 5-star rating is because of the regression/meditation CD that comes with it. It is fantastic and guarantees a night of deep restfull sleep.

I did not take this book too seriously until i put the Regression CD on. I fell into self-hypnosis and freaked myself out. All my fears came rushing towards me and I haven't tried it since.

"Cuando despertamos a la dimensión espiritual, las fobias y los miedos desaparecen, nuestra escala de valores cambia, el amor fluye con más libertad y la paz interior, que está íntimamente relacionada con un sentimiento de alegría y felicidad supremo, surge"

"Somos más, mucho más que nuestro cuerpo o nuestra mente. Somos seres hermosos, inmortales, eternos y llenos de amor y luz."

Libro corto donde el Dr. Weiss explica claramente los beneficios de la regresión y como esto puede ayudar a mejorar nuestras vidas.

"Para mí, la esencia de la felicidad es la paz interior. Esta paz sólo se consigue cuando reconocemos nuestra naturaleza fundamental, que es el amor incondicional; el amor que se expresa con libertad y no pide nada a cambio."

I found this more relaxing than anything...I did not experience any "past" occurences...If I did how would I recognize it? It was fun to try and hypnotize myself and I did acheive a deep calm yet I was still conscious of what was going on around me. Cool

There is not much to this book. The CD is what you want. It is a hypnosis cd to regress you to past lives.

Fairly similar to his book on meditation in giving some insights into why meditation is helpful - with the added layer of how it can trigger past life regressions and how those can then help with phobias and honing spiritual connections.

Much like the meditation book, it’s only useful if you have the audio of the meditation itself (which the library ebook doesn’t - only a transcript), BUT it’s available on YouTube. At first I thought it was the exact same as his overall meditation, but there are a couple of differences to make it more tailored to past life regression therapy. I can’t say that it has made me have any grand insights just yet, but it has only been a couple times, so who knows. 🤷🏻‍♀️

3.5/5

This “how-to” book on regression therapy can help one go back in time to uncover the reasons for current day fears, phobias and quirks that don’t make sense to a person’s current life/lifestyle.

As author Brian Weiss, M.D. explains, results may be instant or take a period of time to unveil physically, emotionally, and spiritually the origination of the event. He explains the technique in written form and then includes a CD to actively listen and follow along while participating. A tiny tome that is a handy tool to healing.

Not easy to like this book really. It seems with a past lives books everyone is either a slave or priest/priestess in a very vague and condescending "Middle East" or "Ancient Egypt". No one is from anywhere else or anything other than a slave or priest/priestess. Hardly any of the "patients" give a full name or occupatuon or where they're from. All of these books follow a very similar cookie cutter pattern. Well that's just fishy to me. I didn't get to the CD.

Great Resource for a New Model of Healing and Therapy

I love Dr Weiss’s clear way of describing past-life regression as a model for healing and self discovery. He makes something complex and potentially woo woo very accessible to anyone willing to open their mind to alternative possibilities. And why not? Our conditioning and social programming has made our society suspicious and closed minded to even the thought of introspection in any form, let alone hypnosis. Hopefully this book, and others will make this venture into the quantum realm and higher-self the norm, rather than perceived as weird.

Must have for someone who wants to use past life regression for healing their own life

Recommend for anyone interested in learning about past life regression, how to possibly do it yourself, and how to use it to heal. It even comes with the audio so you can do it yourself. I haven’t tried it yet, but look forward to it. Very short, simple book, and to the point. Definitely get if you like Dr. Brian Weiss’s other books and work.

This book is good to complement the other books of the same author on regression, it answers some of the typical questions on hypnosis and how it works, on past lives and on whether to try or not to go back and see what happened.
It's a pleasant read. If you've read more books of the same author, I highly recommend this one, too.

If you’ve read other Brian Weiss books then there is no specific reason to read this one except…it comes with an audio recording of the hypnosis!

I got my (digital) copy from the library and with it, a code for the online audio download.

I don’t know how much the book costs; it may be cheaper to just buy the audio download but if you can get it for free from the library, why not?

Es un buen libro en cuestión de introducción hacia el CD que tienes que adquirir de regresión, pensé que incluía más sobre el tema pero no deja de quitarte dudas sobre la meditscion. Pero sí es importante el CD.

I love Brian's books, but felt that this was more of a review of what I have read in some of this other books. I think it would be a good introductory book to read before delving into his other ones. I loved the past-life regression download included.

Well I am.no one to rate Dr. Brian Weiss. I have read all his books and yes there are repetitions but still I read them with full interest. Guided meditation in the end of the book is the real key which keeps the strength to change your perspective towards life.

No me vino con el cd :( . Es un libro explicativo para entender más las técnicas de regresión. Es super cortito de leer.

La certidumbre de que somos seres espirituales produce cambios profundos y nos permite valorar cualidades como el amor, las relaciones positivas y la compasión.

Um bom livro para se perceber o que é a regressão. Vem com um CD, todavia, esta disciplina não consegue que se obtenham resultados sem uma ajuda de um especialista.

"El viaje espiritual es interior y exclusivo para cada persona. Los maestros pueden indicar el camino, pero cada uno debe emprenderlo solo."

El libro resulta muy útil si es el primero que lees de su autor, en mi caso, gran parte de este me resultó repetitivo por lo que a pesar de su corta extension me tomó mucho terminarlo, de este destaco la meditación transcrita a partir del cd, en mi opinión sería muy útil si existiese una versión oficial en español de esta meditación guiada.

According to the authoer, whether you subscribe to past lives or not, there is much healing that can be achieved through this modality. The CD that comes with this book is a great meditation CD. I find that I am able to go deep and often even fall asleep (which is ok too) but awaken at the end. After seeing him on Oprah, I thought it was very similar to the Emotional Release therapy work that I do with clients. I am interested in learning more.

Regression is the topic and the CD contains the hypnosis. Brian Weiss introduces new and old to the idea of regression, what to expect, why it is done, and the benefits of it. Regression is used to gain insight and to heal the soul.
I think that this is a good book to have in your library and the CD will easily become part of your collection especially for using at night or to relax.
I hope that this will help you along your way in your spiritual journey.

I re-read this book and it was a delicious read, again. I have had dreams about past existence since I was 5-6. I didn't know it was something that others never experience until I was older. 6 decades later, I dream of prior times at least weekly. Whether or not reincarnation exists is not the question. The question is if knowledge of another time can bring about better health, peace or comfort today.
