Journey Back is a collection of past-life regressions involving 27 volunteers who desired to investigate their pasts under hypnosis. The stories uncovered were fascinating and eye opening. They opened the door to an awareness that suggests that we have existed in multiple lives with multiple lessons and experiences. In some lives, the volunteers were male, and in other lives they were female. Some lived to an old age while others died young. Some stories were of happy lives, but other included abandonment, murder and mental illness.
This book is purely anecdotal. There is no plot or character development. The author simply reports the recorded sessions and leaves it to the reader to draw their own conclusions. I liked the wide variety of lifetimes and the interviewer’s determination to not ask leading questions. Ultimately, it makes me want to lead an interesting life now, just in case I come back for a visit!
