This book contains a revolutionary new system for Past-Life Regression and Imagery Therapy called The IRE Approach . Learn inductions, deepening techniques, how to facilitate past-life regression therapy sessions and imagery sessions and other crucial hypnotherapy techniques. This book is a MUST HAVE for therapists I.R.E. stands for "Imaginative Role-Enactment." This is a complete hypnotherapy system created by Certified Master Hypnotist Christopher S. Harris. "Most Past-Life Regression Therapists are approaching the technique as true to life - They will tell you that they are actually taking you back to a time that you have lived before. But The IRE Approach does not assume that you believe in Past-Lives and we do not propose that that is what we are doing. The IRE Approach treats Past-Life Regression as Imaginative Role-Enactment and so the topic of "reincarnation" and the risk of conflicting with the client's belief system is never an issue. This approach is a Godsend to hypnotherapists specializing in Past-Life Regression therapy because now by framing the procedure in a different way it is accessible for use with every client. You are no longer forced to use a modality that you think is less-effective for the client's particular issue just because your chosen technique is controversial. Unlike what many therapists believe, the value of PLR isn't in going back to real past lives. The value is rekindling the very nature of humanity What do I mean by this? I believe that imagination is one of the fundamental parts of being human - Every one of us is born with the innate ability to imagine, play, and pretend. But what happens to children that play with imaginary friends? We are discouraged from play and imaginary social interactions to the point that it becomes so deeply repressed that it takes intensive therapy to uncover what fragments remain. This is so sad if you think about it. We have buried our inner child until barely any remains. We have cut off a mental limb. Allowing a place with no judgment or ridicule and actually encouraging the redevelopment of imagination has always been the true value of PLR, whether the practitioners knew it or not. It is this Imaginative Role-Enactment that we consider to be our client's biggest tool for self-discovery in The IRE Approach .""
