Chances are you’re familiar with the concept of past lives, where you reincarnate to experience different lifetimes. However, many people are less familiar with the concept of parallel lives. A parallel life is one that you are living at the same time as this current life in which you make different choices than the ones that you’ve made in this lifetime. While the idea of parallel lives may sound straight from a movie, you may want to explore this concept further if you have questions about your current life. Here are three reasons to access parallel lives.
You want to rethink past choices.
Say you had to choose between two jobs in your twenties. One job was in your home town while the other job caused you to move across the country. You decided to throw caution to the wind and take the job across the country. Maybe twenty years later you now wonder what would have happened and how your life would be different today if you had taken the job in your hometown Would you have married your high school sweetheart? Would you have had a different relationship with family members?
In a parallel life, you may have chosen to take the job in your hometown. By accessing that parallel life, you can explore what would have happened had you made the other choice and perhaps get some answers to some of your current life’s questions.
You want to see life from a different viewpoint.
Parallel lives allow a soul to explore life from various viewpoints. It would be a total waste of energy for a soul to have parallel lives in which the same choices were made in both lifetimes. Instead, we typically explore different lifestyles in each parallel life. For example, in this life, you may be a successful businesswoman with no children while in a parallel life you may be a homemaker with five kids. By accessing the parallel life in which you had children, you can gain some insight into what your life would be like through that experience.
Parallel lives can tell you whether the grass is greener.
Most people second-guess themselves or their life choices at some point. If you feel like you made the wrong choice at a fork in the road, you can make yourself miserable by believing that the grass is greener on the other side. When you access a parallel life, chances are you’ll find that the grass is no greener on the other side. Most likely you’ll find some things about that parallel life that you would prefer to have in this lifetime, but there are also likely things about that parallel life that you’re glad you don’t have to deal with.
In the example above, the businesswoman may wish she could experience being a mother, while the mother could be longing to have a life where she could pursue her interests and chase a professional dream.
How to access parallel lives
If you want to explore parallel lives, there are professionals who will use hypnotism to help you to access them. Often these are people who can also help you to access past lives and lives between lives, as well.
