When the question of 'regression' comes up in our family, I've always said that IF it exists, it is more likely to be inherited memory rather than that the person has lived before, as I don't see why if we can inherit eye and hair colour and mannerisms that we can't inherit memory. My family think I'm crazy. Kath. x |

Alison We had a lengthy discussion about this on another site, and I believe that yes, you can inherit your ancestors memories through your genes. There are various random markers on our genes called alleles and most of these have no known purpose or function. Who is to say that they don't carry some inherited race memory, or some memory more specific to YOUR ancestors. OC |
