This inspirational and moving program uses patient vignettes to show that each of us is part of a profound and beautiful flow of individual energy--from life-time to lifetime and across the earth today. With humble writing more characteristic of a healing sage than a psychiatrist, the gentle Dr. Weiss says that we have opportunities in this life that, if not used, will carry on to the next one. The depth and kindness of this compelling audio lesson go beyond what we usually get from religious, mental health, and scientific writers. Love one another, Weiss says, and create a healing unity as we move toward an impending reduction in the earth's population and a surprising gift for humanity.

Book Description
Noted psychiatrist Brian Weiss made headlines with his pioneering research on the healing power of past-life therapy in his million-copy bestseller, Many Lives, Many Masters. Now, in his astounding and groundbreaking new book, Dr. Weiss reveals how our future lives can actually transform us in the present. We all have lived past lives. We all will live future ones. What we do in this life will influence our lives to come as we evolve toward immortality. Dr. Weiss encourages this important recognition because recently he has not only regressed his patients into the past, but has progressed them into the future. And what they have discovered is that our futures are variable, so the choices we make now will determine the quality of life when we return. Using dozens of case histories, Dr. Weiss demonstrates the therapeutic benefits of progression, just as he has proved that journeys into our past lives can alleviate or cure our physical and emotional wounds in the present. Among the many patients who have benefited from the therapies are: Samantha, who overcame failures at school when she revisited her life as a Greek architect and later saw her future life as a great physician. Hugh, a psychic, tortured in the Middle Ages as a heretic, whose journey to the future brought him peace. Gary, whose glimpses into the future evaporated his depression and thoughts of suicide. Christina, whose past life and future memories enabled her to heal her relationship with her father and to finally find professional success and personal happiness. Evelyn, who, after reliving a past life as a Nazi officer and a future life as a teenage Arab girl, was able to release her fears and prejudices. Paul, whose love of Alison transcended past and future, transforming his current life and helping Alison to overcome a dangerous disease. Same Soul, Many Bodies is a revolutionary book, building on Dr. Weiss's discoveries about the past, a book that will take his millions of readers into an individual and collective future that they themselves will create. In the process, their present lives will be profoundly transformed, and they will find more peace, more joy, and more healing.
Same Soul, Many Bodies: Discover the Healing Power of Future Lives through Progression Therapy FROM OUR EDITORS
In his million-copy-selling Many Lives, Many Masters, Ivy League-trained psychiatrist Brian Weiss recounted the past lives of one his patients. In Same Soul, Many Bodies, he moves from regression therapy to progression therapy, describing how he has helped patients to project themselves into their future lives. Dr. Weiss acknowledges both the power and the perils of pre-cognition. He admits the difficulty of distinguishing authentic vision from wishful thinking and unconscious distortion.
SYNOPSIS
Brian Weiss, M.D., is most famous for his fascinating account of the past lives of one of his patients, Catherine, recorded in Many Lives, Many Masters. It was almost a quarter-century ago that he first attempted to pro-gress her into the future, but on that one occasion she spoke not of her own future, but rather of her vision of Weiss's future death-a slightly harrowing moment-and they never went in that direction again. So for years, Weiss focused only on leading his patients into the past, yet some of them experienced spontaneous pre-cognitive moments-knowing what will happen before it actually occurs. (Researchers into near death experiences have written about the phenomenon.) Then for awhile, and only on rare occasions, he pro-gressed his patients forward but only in their own lifetimes. More recently, when developing regression into past lives with a large group on a cruise ship, one man went forward into the future rather than backward, into an idyllic future life, and the passage helped him emotionally. At that moment, Dr. Weiss had a stunning insight, for he came to realize that past, present, and future are one, and what happens in the future can affect the present, just as the past also influences it. Now he has pro-gressed many patients with striking results, in which we learn what the future holds, and how we can all influence it on our voyage toward immortality. The book's basic concept is that the future is flexible, and that we will be present in that future, learning life's lessons. Each chapter draws on case studies of patients' pro-gression into the future to illustrate these lessons, namely the life-affirming values of empathy, compassion, non-violence, patience, and spirituality. Same Soul, Many Bodies will prove as utterly fascinating as it is instructive.
