True one case I learned about involved a young woman who was an Olympic diver. During one practice she saw a shadow on the water below and she froze up with fear and could not dive anymore. After a lot of therapy and counseling, which did not help her, she happened to try hypnotic regression. Under hypnosis, she remembered a past life where as a young child she jumped off an old dock and just before hitting the water she saw a shadow which turned out to be an alligator and she had a horrible traumatic death.
Almost everybody carries phobias, fears and desires, skills and habits, certain personality traits and on and on from past lives. Some souls stay in the astral world a long time between incarnations and bring less with them. But the souls who have a quick turn around time tend to not erase much from the previous incarnation.
