A good lesson for any soul in the lessons of others
One of the things that stuck with me after reading this book was this: How often we draw incorrect conclusions from circumstances in our lives that prevents us from our full expression of a life's purpose. This book is a collection of case studies from a woman who reads people's Akashic Records.It is a little voyeuristic because you are reading the most personal and private lessons of a soul's journey. I admit, that is part of the fun of reading this. But it has also helped me see how myopic a soul can be when it is in the third dimension. We can draw ego-centric or fear-based conclusions on soul lessons and have to work them out again in another time and place, or we can approach lessons with balance and humility and succeed.I'm not going to go into the believe-ability of this book. I believe the author has a talent and sees what she sees. How or why is not really the point. It is also clear she doesn't really care if you believe her or not. She doesn't go out of your way to prove that what she saw was true or whether or not it significantly changed the person's life who she was reading for. She says many times that this is not a party trick. I did not read this to have the Akashic Records proven to me. I read it to see what kind of lessons this book held for me in this lifetime. I appreciated it.

Totally worth reading!!
This self-published book is fascinating, informative and well-worth reading! In it, author Lois Wetzel gives numerous examples of past life readings she has done for clients over the years, describing how the readings have helped them heal from present-life emotional and physical issues. While Dr. Brian Weiss uses past-life regressions for a similar effect, the author has found that by relaying the information from our guides, we can experience similar healing without going through the sometimes extreme trauma of a regression, wherein you might relive something pretty terrifying if the hypnotist is not sufficiently skilled.I went out on her website afterwards and saw that she has a couple of permutations of these readings. I got the "past lives with life purpose" reading and it was worth every penny. A couple of things that came out of it have proved enormously helpful after only a few weeks. Other things I learned will continue to percolate and should assist with slow, gentle healing.Read the book and see what you think!A final note: Even the largest publishing houses seem to have lost their editorial edge; as a professional editor, I am often horrified by the mistakes I find in books by firms that presumably employ full-time, qualified proofreaders and editors. One of the great things about Amazon and the self-publishing industry is that valuable information is no longer being filtered based on the agendas of a handful of editors. The downside is that not every person with something wonderful to say is also an editor, nor can they always afford editors. So, as with any self-published work, there are occasional typos in Lois' books -- but I do not judge a self-published work by the quality of its editing. If it is readable and interesting, then I am happy to enjoy it anyway. And this book is very enjoyable and very readable!

Deeply Insightful
I purchased Akashic Records:Case Studies of Past Lives to help gain a better understanding of why I've had some of my experiences and to get past some spiritual "blocks" so I could learn the intended lessons and move on to new ones.Like other books about the Interlife, it is spiritual without being religious, so no matter where you attend church, if at all, the message is universal to everyone. It is written from the perspective of each person's soul and each is rather unique yet with always with a common thread. This book reminded me of Brian Weiss's because of his method of conducting past life regression therapy by calling upon the client's spirit guide to gain needed insight in order to heal sooner and not continue the vicious cycle that traumas can cause. It is quite detailed though manages to hold the reader's interest and easy to read. You will find some typos here and there, but they in now way detract from the content of the book, so it's easy to look past.

Akashic Records: Case Studies of Past Lives
This book is a fascinating read. If you have ever had a hypnotic past life regression, then you are familiar with the "typical" process. Lois sets herself apart from the main stream of past life regressionists inasmuch as she channels the information. You are not put in hypnotic trance and Lois brings forth the information from tapping into the Akashic records.Whether you are a serious student, new-age curious, or simply drawn to the book, I do not think you will be disappointed. The reading is engaging and informative allowing the reader to journey with Lois and her subjects. It is mind expanding sans the drugs. My ride with Lois and her subjects was touching, frightening, loving, humorous and interesting. Having been taught by my mother that reincarnation is a reality (she could recall her past lives), makes me want to be a better person each consecutive lifetime. I can appreciate the "whew" moments when we realize we've finally learned our lessons we chose for ourselves each time we step into the "earth school" as well as the moments we realize we still have a lot of work to be done.I am glad this book did not escape my attention. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did--in fact, I am about to reread it. Lois' gifts are pure and we are the fortunate recipients of her talents.

Seems made up
Geology, archeology, and history as we know it today do not support many of the alleged details described in past life readings. Way too many people have past lives where they are famous, 'well known', or at the top of their field for me to take these descriptions seriously. The addition of lives from Atlantis, Lemuria, and inside the Earth's crust really puts this over the top. One of the past life descriptions is supposedly that of Aaron, the brother of Moses and mentions the mass poisoning of a breakaway sect. Unreal. Books like this make me want to reject the entire concept of past lives and reincarnation. It's as ridiculous as the junk written by Dolores Cannon.

Good read
Not a bad read, but a bit repetative.Still, good enough to dip in and out of on holiday.Would recommend as a light, but not overly deep read.

Good book!
I really enjoyed this book as past lives is a subject that really interests me. This book shows how our past lives have shaped who we are today. A few of the past lives were on Atlantis, which I found very interesting. Well worth reading!
