Clint and Wendy discuss Michael Newton's Journey of Souls (1994), a hypnosis-based book of case studies positing soul continuity across lifetimes. Key themes: pre-life, this-life, and afterlife; soul groups; guides and teachers; life purpose and planning; and a calm, familiar post-death realm. The book's life review emphasizes learning over punishment, with subjects feeling others' joys/pains. It frames Earth as advanced training and reincarnation as optional. LDS context: three degrees of glory (celestial, terrestrial, telestial) based on choices. The hosts note hypnosis' scientific status is debated and caution listeners to approach with curiosity and discernment.
