My Regression Notes by Gary Hopkins
August, 2008
These are some of my feelings and experiences from a recent "Inter-Life" regression, An Inter-Life regression is done by a hypnotherapist with the goal being to visit your Life between lives. Or your life between incarnations here on earth. This was my second regression done in a month by the same wonderful person. (I am omitting her name temporarily until I get her permission to use it here). My first regression was a general past life regression. This one definitely took me a step (or two) further.
Please keep in mind this is pretty far out stuff, however, given the rapid state of change that the planet and we are all going through, I feel it is important to share these experiences with others. Please enjoy.
Physical experiences:
This regression for me induced some very interesting sensations in my body as I was lying in that chair. From just a few minutes into the procedure, I felt very buoyant. Almost as if I were floating on the ocean, with all of the movement that the sea would provide, not a violent tossing around but a gentle rocking from the waves.
A few minutes more into the session and I felt very displaced in my body, as if I were still attached to it but out of it - similar to the OBE’s (out of body experiences) that I experience often. These are more like me shifting out of this existence but still having the ability to see through my eyes. The sense of being someone else or being at 2 places at once. This sensation was the underlying tone for most of the session. Other sensations occurred with this simultaneously as the session progressed.
At one point I felt as if I were inverted - similar to hanging from inversion boots, but without the sensation of the boots or pressure around the legs and the blood rushing to the head. This was quite odd since I knew I was perfectly safe on my back in the chair.
Next I felt as if I were in a hole with no bottom. I felt like some very pliable material was supporting my body and as Mary Ann took me deeper I would actually feel like I was sinking (as the fabric stretched). I was very aware of the stretching of the fabric that was holding me during this time.
General Tone of my Perception:
During the entire session I felt as if I were bouncing around many scenes, experiences and places. This was difficult to manage as I knew the objective (at least in my mind) was to interpret what I was experiencing. Often I did not have the words or depth of intellect to articulate what it was that I was seeing and feeling. I felt like the missing link between me (Gary) and my higher self (the soul). All the while feeling like a very limited conduit for what was trying to get through. This sense of "smallness" was not ego based however. It just was what it was. Maybe a better interpretation might be - a child trying to articulate his/her parents’ thoughts with the child’s limited education/vocabulary levels.
Over the course of the session this was a little frustrating for me since the direction of the session was based on questions and ideas that didn’t seem to be very relevant to the Higher Self. It was as if we get caught up in the how’s, the why’s and timelines (which is very important to all of us – being that is our perception), and the higher self was straining to put the answers that we seek into terms that we could understand.
The Environment:
Ok, this was a little strange for me but I will try to paint a picture for everyone. Once connecting with the higher self, I realized foreign or even alien surroundings. There was a 360-degree radius of infinity around me. I had no physical form, just energy or thought (stream of consciousness – maybe?). Above and below me were and many plateaus. I was 1 or 2 plateau under a level that was presented to me as the 24 Elders. I have seen this reference before in The Book of Knowledge – The Keys of Enoch. The definition of these 24 is listed as:
Lords who sit in the presence of the YHWH exchanging their commissions and glory periodically with other masters. They control twenty-four thrones and dominions, which administer the Law of Central Control through Councils of Light to all Universes which recognize YHWH.
*Note - The YHWH is said to be one of several names of the infinite mind - what I believe to be source.
I think this might be why I refused to go in front of the "council" when Mary Ann asked me too. It seemed to be a different construct than what we originally set out to engage in prior to the session.
Above this 24’s plateau, was white light. There was a definite "presence" in this realm/area. It was very magnetic. I had a very strong sense to move towards it, even though it was apparent that I was apart of it. I also felt like there was something beyond it, but have no idea what.
Below me and around me - I saw many clusters (pods or hives maybe?) that were co-existing universes. The one that we are in had 3 other parts attached to it. My best guess is that it was similar to the 4 chambers of the heart. They are working in cooperation with one another as a unit. They need one another to survive as a whole - although the vastness of each was infinite in the perceptions that can be experienced there. Although color did not seem to matter beyond this point, each was represented by a color. 1 of the 4 primary colors was impressed upon each one. Ours had the red overtones. Blue, yellow and green were present in the others. There was definite separation in the chambers, but and obvious connection in the cluster or pod. The pods were connected to other pods as well. Some were clusters of 2, 3, 4, and I saw a 5 chambered one as well. An "energetic cord" connected all of the pods. From the top view it was a grid, with imperfect symmetry.
My general feeling in this state was blissful, wholeness, and being complete. I also knew that I could incarnate anywhere I chose in any universe or cluster/pod, however I was working with ours in some way so I was to "stay put" for the moment. I sensed others on my plateau (many in fact) however I did not "see" any one else.
Other observations:
One thing I wanted to mention is that the Soul level that I connected with is not to be confused with the energy/identity that I call Jo-bu (I am spelling this for the first time so bear with me – it seemed appropriate). Jo-bu is an energy a step or two ahead of our own evolution. I believe this is why I am in contact with him (to learn from) – similar to a spirit guide association. However he resides in a parallel universe in our own chamber of the pod/cluster. So, the soul was a perception outside of that existence – if that makes sense.
I did notice something with Blackhawk (one of my previous lives) as Mary Ann guided me to his death. Instead of feelings of pain or anguish, as that body lay there dying I noticed a great sense of fullness and bliss. It’s as if once the body understands its going to die then the soul is freed of all the veils of despair. Dying was actually a very joyous experience (in that instance). As I was about to laugh in enjoyment I felt Mary Ann’s hand on my forehead. I am assuming that this is a grounding technique to bring someone out of an uncomfortable situation. It took me a moment to realize what was going on as this sensation was melding with the others at the time. I think we will laugh about this one at the next meeting. I’ll explain why then.
I also noticed that it was difficult to go to specific places that were deemed to be important or significant. The soul made a comment regarding why and I will try to articulate it as best as I can now. "Think of all our incarnate lifetimes, each one represents a single breath of air. Now think of all the breaths that you take in one lifetime. Very quickly it becomes clear that one is just as important as the next. Since each breath is equally crucial to the continuation of life it seemed inappropriate to identify 1 lifetime as more important than another."
I think this is where I was getting stuck as I was trying to navigate and interpret with this perception guiding me.
That is all. These is just a simple re-cap. I hope is was clear enough. Please understand that my friend is a certified transpersonal hypnotherapist, so she is certainly qualified to take me on this journey. I would suggest that any of you wanting to experience this, please do your homework prior. This was a very eye-opening experience for me, but like all mind travel, should not be taken lightly. The best way I can describe it is that this week has been "different" for me as a result of the session. I'm certain it is just an adjustment period (as I have experienced similar periods before), however this kind of experience may not be for everyone. Definantley not something to be feared, just respected. If anyone has any questions or comments (as with all content posted here), I will be happy to address them as best as I can.

Many blessings to you all.
