Wisdom of Souls

If you believe that our essence is extinguished when we leave the body, or that we are not souls that live again and again, this collection of actual case studies will convince you otherwise.

The key message repeated over and over by the guides in the session is to focus on joy. Joy creates flow. Embracing joy is the path to healing for her and for all of us.

In the sessions, the person is first taken to a previous lifetime and then to the final day of that lifetime so that they are able to enter into the realm where their guide and beloved members of their soul family are waiting to greet them with radiant love.

It’s not true that feelings of discontent mean you are on the wrong path or that you are being punished. You may have built them into your life plan so that you can accomplish your life goals.

Certified practitioners of the Michael Newton method called, Life Between Lives, facilitate experiences for their patients of healing and clarity which allows them to accept things that have happened to them or understand life situations from the perspective of the soul level.

People have understood how love is the root of the agreements that are made between lives, even if the agreement includes experiences that are traumatic. Those experiences were chosen specifically for the knowledge they provide, no matter how difficult they were to live through.

Some things we can change, some things we can’t. I cannot change things that involve others. Other spirits. It feels like my daughter Anna and I have decided something together! Something we are supposed to do. And that I cannot change! I do not know what it is, but it is not changeable. It will become clear at some point in the future. I can change the path, but what I need to learn will be in every path I take.

The book takes us through case studies organized by topic (including “Losing a Loved One”, “Career and Finances”, and “Addiction”). In each chapter, the experiences of several different people are shared with the reader. We learn what motivated the person to seek a Life Between Lives experience, we are privy to information shared by the higher self, information shared by the soul guide of the individual, and sometimes information gained from a counsel of elder souls.

We also follow along as the practitioner gently guides the person and facilitates the acquisition of answers to the questions the seeker is looking for.

When we realize each person on this planet is walking a path designed to be exactly what they need, we can pull back and let go of our arrogant assumption that we know what is best for them, loving them just as they are.

Halfway through the book, I’d already decided to have a Life Between Lives session. If you are interested in this kind of thing, you can find the nearest practitioner here: https://www.newtoninstitute.org/find-lbl-facilitator/

If that is too much of a commitment, there are interviews with Dr. Newton on Spotify one can listen to.

When we incarnate on earth, an amnesia settles upon us that allows us to believe that we are the character we have chosen to be in any one lifetime and that our current experience is all that there is. We become immersed in the drama that unfolds before us, a drama that was chosen by us so that we could have certain experiences and learn specific lessons.

There are also special challenges built into an earth incarnation that aid in our development. Earth school requires us to adjust to being in a human body and negotiate with an ego we believe to be our real self. We are challenged to care and provide support for ourselves, to connect and cooperate with others, and to live our lives meaningfully. We are given free will and the ability to create our own experiences. There is tremendous potential for love, joy, peace, fulfillment, creativity, and achievement.

However, all of this plays out in a setting where we are vulnerable to illness, injury, natural disasters, isolation, conflict, and violence. We experience fear, anger, and other strong emotions. Challenging situations occur, and we observe good and evil in action. It is under these conditions that we have the potential to make rapid spiritual advancement. By facing the difficult, painful situations in our lives, we can find the gift of wisdom contained within them.

This book is an excellent reminder that things are not what they appear to be.
