Resources
Optional reads, gentle integration, and prompts for reflection.
You don’t need to study anything before a session—your own experience is enough. If you’re curious to explore more (before or after), these are thoughtful places to start.

Books I recommend
(by my mentor, Dr. Linda Backman)
Bringing Your Soul to Light — a compassionate primer on past-life & between-life work and gentle integration.
The Evolving Soul — how learning, healing, and growth unfold across lifetimes.
Souls on Earth — perspectives on soul origins and how they shape life now.
Soul Design — understanding your core patterning and purpose.
Also foundational
(by Dr. Michael Newton)
Journey of Souls — case studies that introduced many readers to the “life between lives” framework.
Destiny of Souls — deeper exploration of soul groups, lessons, and purpose.
Life Between Lives — practical guide to the LBL process for seekers and facilitators.
Memories of the Afterlife (ed.) — practitioner case studies expanding the field.
Reading is purely optional; come as you are.
Research worth following
Not required reading — just a couple of studies worth knowing about.
University of Virginia, Division of Perceptual Studies — a research center that has studied near-death experience, past-life memory, and related phenomena within a mainstream academic setting for decades.
WISER (Worldwide Initiative for Super Experiencer Research) — a multi-year academic study exploring what researchers call “expanded self” experiences, including memories that feel like they extend beyond this lifetime.
New: DOPS Past-Life Memory Initiative (2025–2027) — a newly funded, two-year study using brain imaging to explore why some children report memories of past lives.
These are offered as context, not proof. Explore only if you’re curious.
