took quite a while to overcome the brain-washing of several years and to think that deep within us, our spiritual side, there is no difference, only misunderstanding. My work with Phil began quite by accident, if anything can ever truly be called an accident I take appointments from many different types of people who want the experience of hypnotic regression into past lives. There is really no true "type" of person that this method works best on. My subjects are truly a broad cross-section of human- ity.

Twice before she had set up an appointment but had canceled out at the last minute. I often suspected she was not yet ready for regression. It can frequently be too revealing. Maybe she was subconsciously afraid of what she would find if she began to probe into her hidden past, and these excuses were her way out I did not rush it, [had far too many others to work with.
