1183 – Your Body Remembers Things from Past Lives

1183 – Your Body Remembers Things from Past Lives

In this meditation, Geoff is being shown things through instant understanding.

(Geoff)
I see a two-room apartment—us three kids in one room, my folks in the other. I was five. My mom used to work for a woman up the road. She would go and do the cleaning, and sometimes I had to go with her because there was no one to look after me. I remember her garden had a big green pond. I was fascinated by the frogs, toads, and fish in this huge pond, and I had a little seat there.

Sometimes the gardener would give me a lift home on the back of his bike. One thing I do remember is coming home one day with my heels just above the spokes. I wondered what would happen if I put my heel in the spokes—so I did, on one side. It stopped the bike abruptly and tore the skin off the back of my heel. That was a real learning curve.

Why am I remembering that? Around the same time, in that same house, I had a tricycle. I tried to go down the steps on it. I remember that very clearly—that was another good learning curve. A few other things happened there too.

I think I see now—there are many things in your life you’ve forgotten, but they were all influential. You learned not to put your foot in the spokes of a bike again. These moments are all part of the learning curve. As you grow up, you become someone who’s had all these experiences, and you become wiser. The older you get, the wiser you become, because of everything you’ve been through. Then you’re more capable of handling whatever life throws at you.

The point is, your body remembers things from years ago—memories that may only become relevant later in life. And, thinking further, in previous lives we’ve had similar experiences. You carry some of those memories into your current life because you don’t need to go through them again. It’s like saying, “In the next lifetime, I won’t put my foot in the spokes.”

What we’ve been taught is that with each life, you bring down a few memories that help you sort out your karma or accomplish what you’ve chosen to do. But we’ve never really explored that in detail—until now. Now, we can understand a bit more clearly what we do carry forward.

The whole idea is that we come to this planet to experience different things. The more you experience, the more you’re capable of experiencing. You start to move in a certain direction, drawn to explore even more in that area. Your Higher Self guides that journey.

So, after a dozen or so lives, you don’t need to repeat many of the lessons you’ve already learned. Instead, you come into your new life with the “memories body”—a subtle, energetic form of memory—filled with past experiences. These aren’t in your conscious mind; they’re in your subconscious. That way, you don’t have to relearn them. Your soul develops, based on all the experiences it’s had.

There are so many possibilities. You live one life, move to the next, and so on. This is how you evolve. Everyone is unique—each person has had vastly different past experiences. And yet, we try to lump people together. We say things like, “You were born rich, with a silver spoon,” but everyone’s path is different.

Now, along with that, I’m seeing a huge flock of birds and a city. I think it’s another kind of energy. The birds live in the city, they live a few years, and then new chicks are born. And so on. It’s like the aura of the city—something we looked at yesterday. This aura includes all the birds, and it needs to stay balanced. As new chicks are born, they become part of this aura. That helps maintain balance, because nature is all about balance.

The birds themselves don’t evolve into other species. They don’t become cats, dogs, or humans. They stay part of the nature realm. They keep being born as birds, but they carry with them the energy of the city. Each spring, new chicks pick up that energy. They bring forward the old energy of the aura that surrounds the city.

Just imagine a city from a million years ago—during caveman times. You had hawks, buzzards, and so on, in a constant feeding frenzy. They weren’t the happy, chirpy birds we have today. So yes, birds do evolve—but within the context of nature. They stay part of nature’s energy. That’s quite something—they are part of the aura, the energy that’s part of us. As we know, nature looks after us. It evolves too.

So now we understand that everything is evolving. Humans evolve, animals stay in nature, and even the ground—the soil, the earth, the crystals, the trees—they all evolve. They carry forward information. They don’t need to remain as the “old-style” trees. Nature changes with the water, with the elements, and that change carries forward. It’s like passing DNA to the next generation. Very neat.

Now let’s look at illnesses—how they’re carried forward from one generation to the next. Let’s say, for example, you had a heart attack in your last life. Your body learned from that. It understood what caused it and how to defend against it. So in this life, if you start to go down a similar path—say, drinking too much—your body may respond: “Hey, this could cause a heart attack.” It might pull you back.

So those memories are carried forward. They evolve. You don’t need to go through that scenario again. You’ve already had the heart attack, understood it, and moved on. That’s the whole idea—you learn, you carry forward what you’ve learned, and then you continue learning. Clever.

I asked about pharmaceuticals, and was told: once you cross over, you’ll look back on that life and see pharmaceuticals and chemicals for what they truly were. You’ll be able to understand what was real and what wasn’t. It’s like when you look back at your life and realize that at a certain point, you chose one path instead of another. You see the difference and recognize that you learned something by choosing the “wrong” way.

When you get to the other side, you can correct that. You see the rest of the adventure or situation clearly. You make peace with it. You can put it in a box and say, “Been there, done that, got the T-shirt.” That’s how you process and integrate those experiences.

That’s fascinating. We evolve—and so does nature.
