@Dr. Sarandha… sometimes a single idea just shifts the way we listen in sessions, doesn’t it?
Many a times the moment we drop interpretation pressure, the material unfolds more organically almost like the psyche feels safer when we are curious rather than certain.
Nice how this post opened a new doorway for all of us..… these little shifts quietly change the way we sit with the client more than any technique ever does
Dr. Sarandha, such a familiar moment na…when we are reading and suddenly think “ arre this is exactly what I was wondering during sessions!” 
The time-period discrepancies are honestly one of the most intriguing parts of this work. We try to place the narrative on a historical map, but the psyche doesn’t seem interested in geography or calendars. It presents a setting that carries the emotional truth, not necessarily archival accuracy.
I’ve noticed that when we stop forcing the story to fit a timeline and instead stay with the experience, the session flows more smoothly. The client processes the guilt, fear or attachment much faster because we are not interrupting the psyche with analytical corrections.
So yes, even if we don’t adopt the multiverse as a literal explanation, it becomes a very useful therapeutic lens…as it gives the mind permission to express without us invalidating what is coming up.
Nice how your thought and the post met at the same point… usually that’s where clinical patterns start revealing themselves
Gratitude

So beautifully put! There’s so much more to discover and learn. Not every experience is the same. Once awareness hits, it’s a different world altogether and the feeling is beyond describing.
Thankyou for sharing your perceptive Bhoomika ji…
@Bhoomika, I really liked how gently you held both sides here not trying to prove the multiverse, but using it as a language the psyche already understands.
About our alternate selves acting as mirrors feels true clinically.
Many times in session the client is not just resolving pain… they’re meeting a version of themselves that feels more complete, more expressed, almost like the mind is showing a psychological possibility rather than a historical event…and when they return, they don’t come back with information, they come back with permission.
And yes, metaphors are powerful containers. The subconscious rarely speaks in data, it speaks in imagery, identities and lived-feeling realities.
Your Midnight Library book captures the emotional truth of regret and choice beautifully without needing to be scientifically correct. In a way, regression sometimes feels similar..… exploring “roads not taken” so the present road can finally be walked peacefully.
Thank you for keeping the discussion experiential rather than argumentative. These conversations make the work feel more spacious 
Haha Harmeet 
the last line felt very honest…
I think somewhere every therapist secretly hopes there’s a parallel version who made wiser choices earlier and did not need so many life lessons to become compassionate.
And you are so absolutely right…scientifically the multiverse is still standing more on mathematical possibility than measurable proof, but what fascinates me in sessions is that the psyche doesn’t wait for physics to validate experience. Clients process grief, guilt, unfinished relationships and even unexplained fears with a depth that feels personally lived, whether the mind labels it past, symbolic or parallel.
Sometimes I feel regression is less about where it actually happened and more about where healing becomes accessible. The unconscious simply presents a stage convincing enough for emotional completion.
So maybe the “better version in another universe” is not somewhere else… it may quietly become this version after integration
After all, many of our regrets are exactly what shaped us as therapists sitting in the chair today.
What a beautifully open-minded reflection, Bhoomika.
Honestly I felt you were putting words to something many of us silently experience in sessions but hesitate to define.
There are moments in regression where the client is clearly not
remembering like memory… they are tuning into like frequency.
And this difference is subtle but profound.
Sometimes the emotional intensity is 100% authentic, healing is immediate, patterns dissolve… yet the historical details don’t neatly fit our timeline.
Earlier it created a small inner conflict in my mind that
" Am I missing interpretation?"
But when I look through the lens you described…consciousness not travelling backward but expanding sideways, suddenly the experience has stopped needing justification and has started making experiential sense.
Because in trance the psyche does not behave like a historian. It behaves like an integrator.
Whether we call it past life, parallel life symbolic psyche narrative collective unconscious memory..…the nervous system releases exactly as if the event is personally lived.
And that is where therapy humbles philosophy.
Loved your point that healing remains unchanged regardless of the model.
In fact, I feel models are for therapists and relief is for the client.
Many times after a session the client does not care where it came from… they just feel lighter in a way years of talking couldn’t achieve.
Your post gently shifts regression away from “proving reincarnation” toward “understanding consciousness,” and that is a very important evolution for our field. Because once we stop defending the phenomenon, we can start studying the mechanism.
Also our work often experience truth before science found language for it.
Thank you for articulating this so thoughtfully. It feels less like replacing reincarnation theory and more like widening the doorway through which we understand the soul’s memory.
Looking forward to more such integrative discussions
