Past Lives, Spiritual Experience, and Mental Health with Kerie Logan

Past Lives, Spiritual Experience, and Mental Health with Kerie LoganWhat happens when experiences that feel profoundly real to someone are dismissed outright by the mental health system?In this episode of ReThreading Madness, Bernadine Fox speaks with hypnotherapist Keri Logan about past lives, spiritual experiences, intuition, generational trauma, and the growing intersection between spirituality and mental health.Together they explore why some people find healing, meaning, or emotional resolution through past life regression and spiritual frameworks even in the absence of scientific consensus around reincarnation itself. The conversation moves beyond sensational ideas about “who someone was in a past life” and instead focuses on how unresolved emotional experiences, recurring fears, relationship patterns, nightmares, physical symptoms, and generational trauma may be interpreted and worked through within spiritual or regression-based approaches. The discussion also touches on inner child work, epigenetics, intuition, ancestors, and the role of forgiveness, self-awareness, and emotional healing.At the same time, the episode asks difficult questions about how Western mental health systems respond to experiences involving spirits, visions, ancestors, or reincarnation. In many communities and cultures, including numerous Indigenous cultures, ancestors, spiritual connection, and reincarnation are integrated parts of life and identity. Yet within mainstream psychiatry, similar experiences are often pathologized, medicalized, or dismissed entirely. This episode does not ask listeners to accept any particular belief system as fact. Rather, it examines the tension between lived experience, spirituality, culture, and institutional understandings of mental health and asks what happens when people are denied language or space to explore experiences that feel deeply meaningful to them. Because whether one believes in past lives or not, the emotional and psychological impact of these experiences on people’s lives is undeniably real.Music by Shari Ulrich and BornMore information about Kerie Logan at:Website: https://mastertheupperrooms.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@mastertheupperroomsPodcast: On all platformsInstagram:https://www.instagram.com/mastertheupperrooms/https://www.empoweredwithin.com/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/rethreading-madness--5675300/support.www.rethreadingmadness.ca
