Healing Past Lives for Children
Do children remember past lives? Yes, they do! Do those past lives need healing? It depends. If the lifetime was difficult and/or ended traumatically, then yes, absolutely these lifetimes will need healing for the emotional, mental, physical and spiritual wellbeing of the child and for ease of relationships within the family. However, if the child just recalls an ‘ordinary’ life…. if for example they recall being a contented farmer with a lovely wife and children and they died of old age surrounded by loved ones then no, those lifetimes do not need healing, the child is simply remembering them.
I have worked as a shamanic healer for over two decades now, helping many thousands of people and their families from all over the world heal trauma, whether those traumas originate from this lifetime, past lifetimes or because of ancestral trauma. Once these traumas are healed then the focus is on returning my clients to a state of health and wholeness through practices such as power retrieval, energy exchange and soul retrieval enabling them to move forward and create the lives of their dreams.
Healing past lives in adults and children is super important as the events and traumas of those lifetimes remain trapped in the energy field and in the subconsious, as in the actual past life person plays an active part in the current lifetime of my client, to the detriment of the client. Please note however that 99.5% of the time, the past life person is causing problems for one of two reasons. The first and most common reason is that the past life person is trying to prevent a similar trauma happening to their current incarnation in this lifetime – for example if the past life person drowned, so they will make the current incarnation of themselves afraid or even phobic of water- not to punish them in anyway, but to ‘protect’ them. The other reason a past life person will make themselves known is so that they are found, healed, and moved on from this realm to the heavenly realm.
Please be assured, in twenty years of full-time work as a shamanic healer. I have not encountered a past life being who had negative intent towards its current incarnation. The other reason traumatic past lives need healing within the family is that souls incarnate within the same soul group, again and again and again, until certain patterns are cleared, and healing is achieved. For example, let’s say you have in this lifetime father, mother, daughter, son, in the most recent past life incarnation together the father could have been the daughter, the son the mother (because we tend to change gender on each subsequent incarnation) the daughter may have been the grandfather and the mother could have been her current son’s husband. Oh yes, it really gets mixed up!
Healing Past Lives for Children
But why is it that children tend to remember their past lives more than adults? Children are highly psychic, in fact we are all born very well connected to our intuition and other, higher dimensions, and are well ‘tuned in’ to our psychic abilities. As you may have seen, children are wildly creative and imaginative, their minds are open and receptive like sponges, and unlike us, they tend to live in their inner world, in the present moment and they are normally grounded and centred in their bodies.
As they get older however, they are gradually toned down, tuned out, made to feel that their insights or intuitions (or visions, such as invisible friends) are ‘silly’ and taught to focus on external things like school lessons, and in the evening and weekends learn to swop their crayons for a games console. As they age, they become more self-conscious as they start to compare themselves against their peer group, or as is common now, Instagram influencers, and over time, their focus moves away from their being-ness and creativity to doing-ness and the importance of getting good grades and a set of abs. As they move through puberty and into adulthood, their connection to themselves is mostly lost along with their psychic abilities.
It can be very disconcerting as a parent to be told, ‘you aren’t my real Mummy, I miss her’ or ‘I was a boy before I came into your tummy.’ The best reaction to these types of comments is, ‘That may be so, but I am your real Mummy in this lifetime and I love you very much,’ or ‘Were you a boy before? How great is that!’ (It will be much easier for your child if you openly accept their comments rather than closing them down, telling them they are being silly – or becoming upset (as much as it can be difficult to hear such things).
It is normally very young children who have great clarity over their past lives as over time these memories will fade- by about 7-8 years old as a child normally becomes less psychically attuned (sadly). I remember a client telling me that her five-year-old son had once pointed out of the car window as they were driving past a graveyard and said, ‘That’s where I was buried isn’t it Mummy? You were very sad and wore a blue dress. I was only little then because I couldn’t stay here very long, but I’m back now Mummy.’ My client had lost her first child, a son, at 18 months old due to cancer. He was buried in that same graveyard, but she had never spoken about him to her little boy.
In this case the ‘turnaround’ of the soul from one incarnation to the next was pretty fast, just a couple of years, but please note that children can also remember lifetimes from thousands of years ago. Again, unless they are traumatic lifetimes, you can just let the comments casually go and the child will move on over time. Sometimes it is obvious that a child is an old soul. I have a friend who has the most amazing nephew who ‘just knows’ everything about astronomy. While babysitting him once she watched a quiz show while he played with his toys on the floor. The compere on the TV asked a contestant, ‘Name one of Jupiter’s four moons.’’ Her nephew shouted, ‘Ganymede, ‘which is indeed the name of one of Jupiter’s Moons. He was only three years old at the time and neither of his parents have the faintest knowledge of astronomy.

However, if the child’s comments suggest any form of suffering or trauma, this need to be taken more seriously. A recalled lifetime that was traumatic or ended traumatically can affect you child on all levels of their being – emotionally, mentally, physically, spiritually and even energetically and of course, behaviourally. How will this show up? Well, your child may simply tell you. For example, ‘why did the bad man cut my head off?’ There may be an odd fear of something – for example I was always terrified of sharks, even in swimming pools – but why? There are no sharks in the waters where I live and certainly no sharks in swimming pools! There may be an extreme aversion to a particular person, such as an uncle, a sibling or in some cases even a parent.
More importantly, there may be no comments or aversions but strange childhood illnesses that defy diagnosis, rashes that won’t go away, or even severe childhood illnesses. There might be continued night terrors, or bad dreams with a repeating theme. There may be unpleasant behaviours, rages and tantrums (more than the norm with toddlers!). I had a client once who asked me if I would work on her seven-year-old daughter (remotely). She didn’t give a lot of detail but said that she was really struggling to connect with her daughter and that there were some ‘odd behaviours.’
When I started working on the daughter, I was immediately taken to an Ancient Egyptian lifetime. My client, the mother, in that lifetime appeared like a priestess on a throne -she was clearly a very powerful and influential figure. I saw the past life of the daughter – a young and beautiful man in that lifetime – begging and pleading with the priestess for mercy, but she was enraged for some reason and he was killed right then and there, virtually disembowelled in front of her by her guards. It felt as if there had been some sort of intimate relationship between them prior to this.
When I told my client what I had seen, she said that it made complete sense. She revealed that her daughter had been displaying very weird behaviour, almost crawling around the mother in obeisance, prostrating herself almost in a bid to please her, and there seemed to be an odd sexual element to her behaviour. Every time the mother tried to stop the child’s behaviour as it made her deeply uncomfortable, or take her attention off her needy daughter in order to focus on her work or the house, the daughter would complain of a painful stomach ache and try to almost control the mother’s behaviour by saying she was in pain. The past life I found made sense to my client and in her next session we cleared the past life from her perspective.
We found that the priestess had been in love with the young man, (her daughter in this lifetime) even though he was well below her station in life, but that she had been given false information that he had cheated on her (although when we worked together she saw that he had not actually betrayed her). We had to also clear the guilt she had from killing her lover, and achieve forgiveness, which resolved the constant feelings of guilt she had over her daughter, which she had not previously understood. When the past lives were cleared, the daughters strange behaviours stopped (even though she was not aware of the sessions) and the overall relationship improved between them and they became much closer.

Similarly, I had a client who had in this lifetime endured a terrible childhood of abuse and neglect. When he had his son (who is now a young man) he promised himself that he would be the very best, most loving father he could to his child, and made every effort to do this. Unfortunately, however no matter what he did, no matter how much he tried, the son rejected not only his father’s love but displayed deep hatred and hostility towards his father. We of course worked to heal my client’s childhood and clear his projections of rejection but still the behaviours of the son continued.
Recently I did a past life session for the father and found that he had purposefully killed his son in that lifetime. (The son now was also the son then in that particular lifetime). I healed both the father and son in that lifetime and established forgiveness and helped both of the past life souls ascend to heaven. I them shortly afterwards bumped into my client when out one day and he hugged me so tight. ‘Thank you so much for what you did for my son and I,’ he said. ‘Our relationship changed almost immediately. He called me and invited me to go out for drinks with him, and we have also booked tickets to a football match. We also got together the other night and had food together and we laughed all night. His behaviour towards me has completely changed. I hope now we can have the relationship I have always wanted.’
I hope from this you can see how important it is for everyone to heal their past life issues, – so they can live this life to the fullest and enjoy positive and loving relationships. Children are such sensitive souls and if your child is struggling with recalling traumatic past life information of suffering from the effects of past life issues, I would be more than happy to assist them. I can work remotely on people and children so there is no need to bring your child to me and upset their routine. All I need is a completed client form (which is on the appointments page of my website) completed with the child’s details and a recent photograph. At their session I can also check them for many other issues which may be affecting them, such as blocks in the energy field or damage to it, power loss, and ancestral issues.
As with any healing, it is important to follow up with a soul retrieval appointment afterwards in order to return the child to wholeness because if they have had a traumatic past lifetime, they will have suffered soul loss in that lifetime and have lost vital energies and aspects of personality which need to be returned to them for health and wellbeing. Please be assured I can work on any child of any age. My youngest client was still in the womb, my oldest client was 84! If your child is over the age of 18, please note I will require their permission to work on them – this can be done my email or text. For children under the age of 18, a parents’ permission is sufficient.
