Description
What if you knew that before you were born, you mapped out your plans and experiences for the whole life ahead of you?
Spiritual teacher, regression therapist, and hypnotist, Rob Schwartz, will give you a new perspective on your life and purpose. In this illuminating and deeply healing workshop, he will help you unveil the life plan that you created for yourself.
You’ll engage in two group hypnotic regressions—one to contact a “deceased” loved one, the other a Between Lives Soul Regression in which you’ll talk with the Council of Elders, the wise and loving beings who oversee reincarnation on Earth—and experience a Divine Virtues exercise that will give you great insight into what you planned for this lifetime before you were born and why, how you are doing in terms of fulfilling your plan, and how you may better fulfill this plan.
Through storytelling, regression therapy practices, personal reflection, and hypnosis, you’ll gain valuable insight into your pre-birth plan, your current life purpose, and learn how to get back on track to follow the path that’s right for you.
Open to everyone over 16 years old; women who are six months pregnant or more should not participate.
