Carol Bowman - Death, Rebirth, and the Nature of the Soul

For his March-May 2006 feature article, “Death, Rebirth, and Everything in Between,” EnlightenNext magazine's Carter Phipps interviewed a variety of leading researchers and theorists in the fields of parapsychology, near-death experiences, and reincarnation in a search for the truth about the soul and the afterlife.

In this interview, Carol Bowman, author of the groundbreaking book on reincarnation, Children's Past Lives, talks about her work finding—and counseling—families with children bearing vivid memories of past lives.

BIO

Carol Bowman began her research into children's past lives when each of her two children had a spontaneous past-life memory. In her quest to understand what had happened to them, she discovered that very little practical information had been written on the subject. So she wrote her first book, Children's Past Lives, which was published by Bantam Books in 1997, as a practical guide for those encountering past-life memories in children. Her second book, Return from Heaven, on reincarnation within the same family, was published by HarperCollins in 2001. Her books have been translated into more than sixteen foreign languages.

Carol has made extensive appearances on TV and radio, been featured in newspapers and magazines, and cited in numerous books on reincarnation. Her national TV appearances include The Oprah Winfrey Show, Good Morning America, Unsolved Mysteries, ABC Primetime, and several documentaries on A&E and Discovery Channel.

Carol has an M.S. in counseling from Villanova University and has been practicing past-life oriented counseling with adults and children for the past sixteen years.
