Soul Design: A Regressionist's Guide to Past Lives, Origins & Purpose
✍️ Backman, LindaA psychologist's guide using regression transcripts to detail past lives, soul origins, and prebirth contracts.
Building on thirty years as a regressionist, Dr. Linda Backman offers an examination of reincarnation mechanics through documented client hypnotherapy sessions. The text presents specific categories of the soul, detailing how individual core awareness develops across different life experiences, spaces, and times. Readers examine the structure of prebirth commitments, soul origin points, and immortal archetypes while working through guided inquiry prompts.
Rooted in contemporary American past-life regression therapy, this work builds upon the foundation established by Dr. Michael Newton and the Society for Spiritual Regression (now the Newton Institute). It connects mid-to-late twentieth and early twenty-first century clinical psychology practices with afterlife, near-death, and New Thought research.

Dr. Linda Backman, in her groundbreaking work, has provided a profound yet practical collection of client sessions with pointed evidence of the soul's awareness.

“If you ever wondered about the origin of your soul and its various aspects, then Dr. Backman's book is a must read! I have never read a more in-depth study and evaluation of the soul and its layers. From its original core, to its build through various 'life experiences' here and in other spaces and times, Soul Design will give you a key awareness of who you truly are and why you have decided to come back to planet earth!”
“With wisdom and insight, breadth and depth, Linda Backman draws from her many client sessions to illuminate what we as souls are really doing here in the Earth school.

Reader rating
Backman provides a accessible entry point into regressionist philosophy, grounding ethereal concepts like 'soul design' in relatable psychological terms. The inclusion of session transcripts helps demystify the process for beginners. However, those seeking rigorous academic critique of reincarnation theories or skeptical analysis will find little to satisfy them. It is strictly a faith-based spiritual tool rather than an objective study. Readers who dislike introspective homework or prefer purely narrative metaphysical works may find the instructional prompts tedious. It suits sincere seekers ready to do inner work.
