In Past Life Regression Therapy we’re all taught the basics of using our voice:
—>keep the tone calm
—>the pace steady
—>the pitch even
—>the register comfortable
These guidelines are important ,they help clients relax and enter trance safely.
But here’s a thought I’ve been sitting with…what if the therapist’s voice isn’t just a guiding tool… what if it’s actually a healing force in itself?
Think about it…how a mother’s lullaby soothes a child, or how chanting calms the mind, or how certain songs bring tears. That isn’t about instructions ,it’s about vibration, resonance, and emotional activation.
When used intentionally in PLRT, the therapist’s voice can:
Regulate the body — low, rhythmic tones calm the vagus nerve and slow the heartbeat.
Unlock memories — softer, lighter tones may touch childlike states; grounded tones provide safety during difficult releases.
Co-regulate emotions — by matching the client’s breath or rhythm and then gradually guiding them toward calm.
Support release — not only through words but also through sound, pauses, and even encouraging the client’s own vocal expressions (sighs, hums, repeating phrases).
Across cultures, the human voice has always been used for healing — chants, mantras, hymns, shamanic songs. PLRT, too, can benefit from recognizing the voice as vibrational medicine, not just hypnotic suggestion.
A few simple examples
A client struggling to release grief may soften only when the therapist’s tone carries warmth and pauses long enough for tears to rise.
A fearful client may feel safe when the therapist lowers their register, grounding the space with stability.
During inner-child recall, a gentle, lighter tone can suddenly open up vulnerable childhood memories that a neutral voice might not access.
Sometimes, just encouraging a client to hum or sigh during a stuck moment allows energy and emotion to flow again.
What about resistant or non-responsive clients?
This is where voice can become especially powerful.
Matching and leading: If the client’s breath is shallow or their body is tense, matching that rhythm in your voice and then gradually slowing it can pull them into calm without them “trying.”
Tone as safety: A warm, grounded register can reassure a fearful client more deeply than repeated words like “you’re safe.”
Gentle sound cues: Adding a soft hum or longer vocal pause instead of silence can keep them connected without pressure.
Inviting their sound:-Sometimes, asking for words is too much. But suggesting, “Just let out a sigh, a hum, or any sound that wants to come,” often opens the first door.
Resistance is often about fear or control. When words don’t land, vibration does. The voice can bypass the logical mind and meet the client directly at the level of body and emotion, gently softening resistance without confrontation.
. These are notable points while acting as a guide.
