Episode 214: Exploring Past Lives in the Akashic Records

Have you ever had an unexplainable fear, phobia, or a deep connection to something and thought, “Where did that even come from?”

It could be a past life trying to reveal itself to you.

Many people ask themselves, who was I in my past life? As they seek to understand these mysterious connections.

As an Akashic Records Master Teacher, I love exploring past live connection within the Akashic Records.

If you’re unfamiliar with the concept, think of the Akashic Records as an energetic library—one that holds every word, deed, and thought from the moment your soul was created.

And by creation, I don’t mean your birth in this lifetime—I mean the very moment your soul came into existence in the vastness of the cosmos.

From that point forward, your soul’s journey is recorded, capturing everything you’ve experienced and even the possibilities for your future.

For those wondering, “Who was I in my past life?” the Akashic records hold the answers. If you’re curious about how to access the Akashic records, the process begins with intention and openness to receive guidance.

📚 Understanding Akashic Records

Through the Akashic Records, we can receive love, guidance, and support in all areas of our lives.

Within these records are beautiful beings known as Masters, Teachers, and Loved Ones—also called the Guardians of the Records.

These guardians provide wisdom and support without judgment, offering clarity and insight whenever we seek it.

Think of the Akashic Records as the Google of your soul—a vast database where you can access guidance about your past, present, and even future.

For those wondering, “Who was I in my past life?” this is where the journey of discovery begins. Learning how to access the Akashic records can open doors to profound self-awareness and healing.

In today’s episode, we’re diving into past lives.

While the records can be used to explore all timelines, today’s focus is on how our past life experiences may still be influencing us.

Many people come to me with the question, “Who was I in my past life?” because they sense that their current fears, talents, or interests are tied to something deeper. If you’re wondering how to access the Akashic records, know that it starts with a willingness to explore and trust the process.

𓋹 Personal Experience with Past Life Fear

For example, when I was seven years old, I almost drowned in a swimming pool.

It wasn’t a dramatic event, yet it left a deep imprint on me.

As I grew older, my fear of drowning intensified, even though I had learned to swim.

It never made sense to me—why did this fear feel so deep and unshakable?

This is where past-life exploration through the Akashic Records becomes so powerful.

I began to ask myself, “Who was I in my past life that this feature could be so deeply rooted?”

I don’t want to downplay drowning or the experience itself, so let me say this differently.

When I fell into the pool as a child, my stepdad immediately jumped in and saved me.

I didn’t choke on water, but the experience terrified me.

As an adult, I began developing irrational fears about drowning, and I realized that what happened when I was seven had a lasting impact on me.

But even then, I was only scratching the surface.

What I was actually experiencing wasn’t just the fear from that single incident—it was the weight of many lifetimes of drowning.

These past life experiences were deeply embedded in me, shaping this phobia in ways I didn’t fully understand at first.

When it comes to past lives, they either hold a blessing waiting to be revealed or trauma—emotional, spiritual, or physical—that is seeking to be released and healed.

When something surfaces in our present life, it’s important to pay attention to it.

In my case, my fear of drowning led me to explore the experience from when I was seven.

I healed aspects of that childhood memory, but as I continued the inner work, other layers emerged—ones connected to my inner child and the way I was treated after the incident.

And then I let it be—I healed that.

But later, another lifetime was revealed.

In that lifetime, I drowned in a boat, and my child drowned as well.

Something happened to our boat, and we both died.

I cleared that, and for a while, I thought that was the end of it.

Then I started experiencing health issues.

When I began looking into the energetics of the specific body part being affected, I realized I was holding the trauma of a lifetime’s worth of drowning.

And when I say a lifetime, I don’t mean just one—I was carrying the weight of more than 100 lifetimes where either I drowned, or loved ones, or people I cared about drowned.

I had been the captain of a ship that went down, taking all of us with it.

These experiences were imprinted within me, creating deep energetic imbalances in my body.

We hold memories in our bodies, and those memories can extend beyond this lifetime.

So this fear—this phobia—wasn’t just about the moment when I was seven years old.

And while that was a significant experience, in the grand scheme of things, it was just one piece of a much larger story—one spanning lifetime after lifetime after lifetime.

For anyone asking, “Who was I in my past life?” this is how the answers can unfold.

❤️‍🩹 Healing Past Life Traumas

This particular experience of body healing was profound because I wasn’t just healing one lifetime—I was healing all of the lifetimes connected to this fear.

We all have fears.

Many of my clients struggle with a fear of speaking up, a fear of being seen, or a fear of persecution.

When I access their records, I often uncover past lives where they were persecuted for being witches or for standing up for what is right.

These experiences don’t just stay in the past—they deeply impact how someone moves through life today.

They influence whether they allow themselves to be seen, how they share their thoughts and emotions, and whether they fully use their voice.

😨 Impact of Past Lives on Present Fears and Interests

Every lifetime we’ve lived leaves an imprint on us in different ways.

Part of our journey is to recognize our wholeness and to gather the fragments of our souls that are still frozen in time.

These soul fragments—pieces of ourselves that are stuck in past experiences—can manifest as unexplained fears.

If you have an irrational fear and can’t pinpoint where it comes from, it may not be from this life at all. It could be the echo of a past life calling to be healed.

Maybe you carry guilt and have no idea why—you just always feel guilty.

That could be coming from a past life.

Similarly, you might have an unexplained fascination with something, wondering,

Who was I in my past life to feel so drawn to this?

That, too, could be a past life calling you to reconnect with knowledge or experiences you once had.

One of my spiritual teachers once shared that she woke up one day with a complete understanding of how crystals work—their energies, their names, their properties.

It was as if the knowledge had always been there, just waiting to surface.

I found that fascinating—how someone could awaken with such deep wisdom.

At the time, it felt foreign to me because I was just beginning my spiritual journey.

But now, as someone who teaches the records and works with crystals regularly, it no longer feels distant.

That’s because the knowledge and work we’ve done in past lifetimes carry over into this one—especially if it’s something important for us to embody and use.

Understanding this can help us recognize the gifts and wisdom we are meant to reclaim in this lifetime.

We carry many blessings and memories within us—wisdom that wants to assist us in this lifetime.

When we access the records and explore our past lives, these blessings can come forward, allowing us to embody them, experience them, and integrate them in a profound way.

If you’re wondering how to access the Akashic records, know that it’s a practice that deepens over time, and the rewards are immeasurable.

🪐Leadership and Galactic Experiences

I once worked with a client who wanted to take her leadership skills to the next level.

When we accessed one of her past lives, we discovered she had been the leader of a very ancient tribe.

In that lifetime, she led her people to victory and negotiated peace with neighboring tribes.

The experience was transformative for her—she saw herself in a new light and understood what true leadership, negotiation, and standing in her power looked like.

I’ve also guided people through past lives that were incredibly unique—somewhere they were not even human.

Others have relived lifetimes of famine or galactic wars, helping them understand deep-rooted fears or emotions in their present life.

One client, for example, had a profound fear of abandonment.

When we explored her records, we uncovered a lifetime where she had lived through a galactic war—an experience that explained where that deep-seated fear originated.

Most of the inhabitants of the planet had escaped, but it was left utterly decimated.

This particular galactic world was completely destroyed, and a fragment of my client’s soul remained there—lost, lonely, and abandoned.

She had spent her entire life feeling a deep sense of abandonment but could never understand why.

There was no logical reason for it in this lifetime.

That’s the beauty of this work—it provides answers to questions we don’t even know how to ask.

It explains feelings and experiences that seem unexplainable, helping us make sense of what doesn’t logically fit within the context of our current life.

And that is profound.

When we explore past lives, we should do so with great curiosity.

Why is this coming up?

What is it trying to show us?

I firmly believe we shouldn’t glamourize past lives—they surface for a reason, and we are here, in this lifetime, for a reason.

The information we uncover is meant to bring us back to wholeness.

That might mean clearing phobias and fears, healing emotional, spiritual, or physical trauma, or even addressing something that seems small but is having a massive impact on our lives.

The work is powerful, and its purpose is always to help us return to our truest, most complete selves.

Learning how to access the Akashic records is also a journey of self-discovery and healing that can transform your life.

💜 Soul Fragments and Wholeness

I had a client whose past life experience really stood out to me because it was so unique.

In that lifetime, she had been a little girl who spent her days watching the world from a window—never allowed to go outside.

No matter how much she longed to explore, she was forced to stay indoors.

At first glance, it might not seem like a traumatic experience.

From the outside, the girl appeared healthy and may have even had other positive experiences.

But the truth revealed in that lifetime was that she had been restricted, unable to fully experience life.

And that limitation carried over into my client’s present life.

Once we cleared that past life energy, something profound shifted.

She felt a newfound sense of childlike wonder, joy, and fun that had been missing.

This change wasn’t just emotional—it affected how she showed up in her work and in her life.

This experience was a powerful reminder that even seemingly small moments from past lives can have a massive impact on our energy, our frequency, and the experiences we attract in this lifetime.

Sometimes, it’s the subtlest restrictions that shape us the most.

Little things—small experiences, habits, and patterns—can shape behaviors that prevent you from recognizing your wholeness.

But you are here to be whole.

You are not here to be broken or fragmented.

You are here to experience your wholeness fully, to understand that you are whole on every level, and to live from that place of completeness.

In past lifetimes, you may have accessed spiritual technologies or ancient teachings that are meant to be rediscovered at a specific moment in your life.

This is important to understand because sometimes people feel a strong desire to learn something new, but they may or may not have a past-life connection to it.

However, when knowledge is truly meant to be embodied—when it is ready to reveal itself—it will surface.

That’s why it’s essential to trust the timing of these revelations.

Blessings and spiritual wisdom will emerge exactly when they are meant to.

Part of your journey is to stay curious, ask questions, and invite these insights to come forward—so that when the time is right, you can embody them fully.

For me, many of the spiritual teachings and modalities I practice and teach are deeply familiar because I have worked with them across many lifetimes—over eons of time.

I love that because it’s part of the Remembrance.

This is one of the most powerful aspects of the Akashic Records—they don’t just assist with healing; they assist with remembering.

If you’re interested in exploring your own records in a deeper way, I highly encourage you to do so.

What is it that you would like a past life to reveal to you?

Or what is a fear or phobia that you want to heal that you would like to explore with the past life?

For those asking, “Who was I in my past life?” the answers await you in the Akashic Records. And if you’re wondering how to access the Akashic records, know that it’s a journey of intention, openness, and trust.

With love and blessings,
