What is Life Between Lives (LBL) Therapy?
     Life Between Lives Therapy is an advanced hypnotherapeutic technique developed by Dr. Michael Newton.  During several decades of assisting his clients to consciously journey into the spiritual world and experience the activities they take part in between physical incarnations, the techniques and processes used to facilitate this extraordinary journey became what is now known as Life Between Lives Therapy.  This journey is chronicled in his two best-selling books, "Journey of Souls" and "Destiny of Souls".  In 2004, Dr. Newton formed The Newton Institute (see www.spiritualregression.org) as the organization to train other professional hypnotherapists in the LBL techniques so that this most important work can be carried on.  Mr. Batie is now certified as a TNI Life Between Lives spiritual hypnotherapist and was trained under the direction of Dr. Michael Newton and his TNI teaching faculty.

     LBL Therapy differs from the more well-known Past Life Regression Therapy in two significant ways: the depth of hypnosis required, and the focus of investigation and type of information received.  The depth of the hypnotic state required for effective Life Between Lives work is much deeper than that required for Past Life Regression Therapy.  In Past Life Regression, the client and therapist are primarily investigating the memories and experiences available to the subconscious mind.  These memories and experiences can be accessed when the client is in a deep Alpha state.  The traditional focus of Past Life Regression is to observe and/or re-experience previous life situations in order to understand the mental and emotional patterns formed as a result of those experiences, and how those patterns are negatively affecting the client's current lifetime.  The information available to the client from his subconscious mind includes all the experiences from his current and all previous lifetimes -- each action taken, word spoken and thought formed.

     However, in order to witness and understand the experiences of the soul while it is still in the spiritual realms or dimensions, a very deep level of hypnosis is required.  It is not enough to merely be able to enter the deep Alpha state of hypnosis for communication with the subconscious mind.  The therapist must be able to take the client into the deep Theta state for access to the superconscious mind, which contains the memory of all your spiritual experiences since you were created as a spirit by God.  In this state, you'll have access to all the beautiful memories and knowledge of your soul from a much broader and enlightened life perspective.  This broader perspective includes all the experiences of your entire spiritual memory, both while incarnated in physical form and also while in the spiritual world between incarnations. 

What Will You Learn?
     Information available to the superconscious mind includes not only all the information available to the subconscious mind, but also a spiritual understanding of the purpose for each incarnation of the soul, the agreements made by specific souls for helping one another to learn certain lessons, and an awareness of the inter-personal dynamics from a spiritual perspective.  The amount and type of information available to each client depends on the degree to which receiving such information would be in their highest and best interests at that time.

     Additional information available to the superconscious mind, but not to the subconscious mind, includes your spiritual name and appearance, the name and appearance of your spiritual guide, the beings in your particular soul group with whom you frequently incarnate as close relatives or friends, the energy characteristics and forms of beings in the spiritual world, the activities that souls participate in while in the spiritual world, and your chosen purpose or lesson to learn for each incarnation.  

     And no journey into your spiritual world would be complete without a visit to your Council of Elders who will assist you in reviewing the progress in your own spiritual development.  You'll also visit your Life Selection Room and be able to consciously recall the factors that went into the selection of your current body before you incarnated into this lifetime.  In addition to understanding the information available in the spiritual realm, in the deeply hypnotized state you'll also able to observe the activities and feel the deep emotional feelings of love, joy, mutual respect and compassion which pervade the entire spiritual dimension.

What Can You Expect?
     Each LBL session will last, on average, about three to four hours.  It always begins with a detailed initial interview.  The hypnotherapist will want to know what information you are seeking, and what experiences have led you to LBL Therapy and/or Spiritual Regression.  If you have never been hypnotized before, an initial Past Life Regression session will be required to let you become comfortable with retrieving information from a previous incarnation while in a deeply altered state of consciousness.
 
    After the interview, you will be asked to remove your shoes and lean back in a comfortable recliner or lie down on a comfortable healing table .  You will then be given several instructions that will allow you to easily and safely relax into a comfortable and very deep state of hypnosis.  Once the therapist has determined that you are deeply hypnotized, he can then converse directly with your subconscious mind, and can begin bringing you into the even deeper state where your awareness or consciousness becomes a part of your superconscious mind.  Even though deeply hypnotized, you will still be able to hear and understand the therapist quite clearly, and respond to any questions he may ask.

     While in this extremely heightened state of awareness, assuming that it is in your best interests at that time to receive the information you are seeking, you will be able to safely and painlessly experience your most recent past life, your transition (death) at the end of that lifetime, move back into the spiritual world from which your soul incarnated, learn about the activities you participated in while in the spiritual world between lifetimes on earth, meet the other spiritual beings in your soul group, and become aware of the decisions, choices, and agreements your soul has made for your current lifetime before incarnating.

     When the examination of this most recent part of your soul record is completed, you will be gently brought back to full conscious awareness.  You will feel very refreshed and fully alert, and you and the LBL therapist can then discuss the details of your new information, as well as their implications for your life.  You will be provided a CD or cassette tape of the portion of your session that deals with the spiritual world.

     Following an LBL session, you will be able to consciously remember your entire journey into the spiritual world, including the information received and the sensations and feelings experienced there.  This information is usually so profound that you will want to expand your concept of reality so that you can include these personal experiences as an integral part of your new Truth.

Are You Ready For LBL?
    It is recognized that not everyone has prepared themselves and is ready for the LBL experience.  Usually quite a bit of inner work is necessary as a prerequisite for the spiritual experiences that a typical LBL session provides.  This inner preparation could be participation in one or several activities such as Meditation, Qi Gong, Reiki, Tai Chi, Yoga, Prayer Groups, or Energy Work.  Of course, this listing isn't all-inclusive.  The point is that you must already have walked a ways on your own spiritual path to come to a place where your inner longing for true, pure spiritual knowledge urges you to move into a higher level of understanding of who you really are and of your place in the Universe.  This is exactly what LBL provides.
