Chapter 1 "We Have Always Existed" Ingrid Vallieres, a tall, beautiful blonde with bright blue eyes, is considered to be a pioneer in Germany's large community of past life therapists. Born Ingrid Kreuzwieser in Stuttgart, Germany in 1953, she is a woman who has practiced and taught her craft not only in her own country but throughout Europe, Asia and in the United States. Her philosophy is a simple one: perhaps we have always existed -- in one way or another -- since the beginning of time.
