In this deeply reflective episode of Spiritual Infinity, Zenzi Sewaah speaks with Romanian past-life regression therapist, author, and podcast host Chris Nielsen, whose spiritual awakening began through unexplained physical illness and an unshakable search for deeper answers. What started as a journey to understand chronic health problems gradually opened the door to Reiki, energy healing, past-life regression therapy, and an entirely new understanding of the soul’s evolution.
Chris shares how years of respiratory, digestive, and emotional struggles eventually led her to explore the connection between physical symptoms, emotional blockages, and unresolved trauma carried across lifetimes. Guided by therapists trained through the work of pioneering regression researcher Michael Newton, she began uncovering memories from previous incarnations that revealed patterns affecting her present life — including difficulties with relationships, career fulfillment, and emotional healing.
One of the most profound discoveries during her regression work was the realization that she had once lived as the celebrated composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky. Yet for Chris, the significance of this revelation was never about fame. Instead, it became a gateway into understanding the emotional complexity, sorrow, creativity, abandonment wounds, and spiritual struggles that continued to echo through her present life. Her experiences eventually inspired her book Being Piotr Ilyich, a deeply personal exploration of healing, soul memory, creativity, and reincarnation.
Throughout the conversation, Chris explains that past-life regression is not simply about revisiting another lifetime, but about understanding the soul’s larger journey and the lessons hidden within recurring emotional patterns. She describes how regression therapy can reveal the deeper reasons behind fears, phobias, illnesses, relationship dynamics, and unresolved inner conflicts — helping individuals release energetic baggage carried across incarnations.
The discussion also expands into broader spiritual themes surrounding karma, forgiveness, collective awakening, and humanity’s need to move beyond separation consciousness. Chris reflects on having experienced lives across many religions, cultures, genders, and historical periods, leading her to believe that prejudice and division dissolve when we recognize that the soul itself transcends race, nationality, gender, and religion.
A particularly powerful theme throughout the episode is the importance of forgiveness — not only forgiving others, but forgiving ourselves. Chris openly admits that healing some past-life wounds took years because of the difficulty she faced in fully releasing emotional pain. Yet she believes humanity is currently entering a period of accelerated spiritual cleansing, where unresolved wounds, emotional patterns, and karmic lessons are surfacing more rapidly than ever before in order to be healed.
Together, Zenzi and Chris explore the idea that we are spiritual beings temporarily inhabiting physical bodies, each lifetime adding wisdom, experience, and deeper understanding to the soul’s evolution. Their conversation becomes not only an exploration of reincarnation, but also a call for compassion, self-awareness, and spiritual awakening in a world still deeply divided by fear and ego.
Closing Reflection
Perhaps one of the greatest spiritual awakenings is realizing that we are far more than the identities we temporarily wear.
Beyond nationality, race, religion, gender, status, or profession, there is a soul quietly gathering wisdom through experience after experience — learning compassion, humility, forgiveness, and love through every chapter of existence.
Chris Nielsen’s journey reminds us that healing does not begin when we become perfect. It begins the moment we become willing to look inward honestly, release what no longer serves us, and remember that the Creator never intended us to live imprisoned by fear, guilt, or separation.
Maybe true awakening is not becoming someone new — but remembering who we have always been beneath the conditioning of lifetimes.
