"I first read Journey of Souls a few years ago, and had the same feeling of resonance that many reviewers did. But I wasn't convinced and still wanted to know more. I wrote to a reviewer on this site who had visited him, and following her suggestion, wrote to Dr. Newton for an appointment. At the time, he had a three-year waiting list, and was seeing about 2-3 clients a week. I saw him just before Destiny of Souls was completed, and while I did not experience my memories with the same clarity the subjects in his book did, I can say with utter certainty that Dr. Newton is not making it up, and is not manipulating his readers.
From my conversations with him, I have found him to be very intelligent, caring, funny, and honest. My experience in hypnosis was a bit unsettling for me, as much as the skeptic in me wanted to dismiss the truths I had learned about myself, I could not attribute my memories to anything that I had seen in his books or elsewhere. Nor did he plant the ideas in my head. He is absolutely the stubborn investigator he describes in his books and challenged the things I said, questioned me during the session, compared to things I had said earlier to make sure I was still saying the same things. Then, at the end of the session told me where I had said something similar to his other clients that had not been in Journey of Souls (but is now in Destiny), such as my detailed explanation of the medallion worn by one of the "Council" members.
In retrospect, I think the most amazing thing about my session was my casual attitude - as I talked about "unbelievable" things like hybrid souls I might as well have been telling him "the sky is blue" with the nonchalant way I felt. In fact, a few times I did get frustrated with his questioning, the same way someone would if challenged with "No, the sky is GREEN". What I was saying felt then, as it does now, to be nothing but pure and simple truth.
For the further skeptical, my small claim to fame is that one of his "One of my clients said.." comments to illustrate a point about soul names was something I told him after my session. So I know that whenever he says a client said something, they did.
I would encourage anyone who is interested in having this regression done, to write to him care of his publisher and include a self-addressed stamped envelope. This is the only way to contact him. One note though, he is currently in the process of retiring his practice and directs new clients to people that he has trained from across the country. Even if you don't see him personally, though, the experience of the regression is absolutely worth it."
Let's say one of the person, in this state, describe his/her earlier soul incarnation as being in some other country which has a different first natural language. Can we talk to that person, in this state, in his/her old country first natural language, which he/she have never learned before?
Science is not just about performing some experiment and reaching some conclusions, but it is also about trying to figure out the implication of those conclusions and experimenting with those implications.
Yes that person in the previous life would talk through the mouth of the person being hypnotised. Even if in the new life she doesn't know the previous language she would remember the information and feeling, and will be able to express them in the new language.
The question is why doesn't she know the previous language? Language is nothing but learned memories just like other memories about your life. So she remembers some stuff and forget some stuff? Why that is so?
She might know the other language actually. I'm not an expert but asking the therapist that runs the hypnosis would know the answer (if they had a patient with a previous life in another language).
My feeling is that what the person remembers are feelings/emotions and images in her head from the previous life, these images and emotions are explainable/translatable in any language.

I just found this video which summarises a lot of answers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lzwle9gjC2E
