For Tom Campbell and in his theory there are databases that we access, quote taken from slides (DB = database):
Probable future DB
– preprocessing --
all possible choices and their expectation value. We may trace the most likely
choices
Past DB
– the result of those choices –
our history thread
Un-actualized past DB
-- all the choices that were not made
Everything that can happen but doesn't
– (many worlds, parallel universes
– error in thinking that past, present and
future are all simultaneous)

The last bullet point is a bit a disagreement with other theories (e.g. Einstein with his "time as illusion" or channelled stuff by Bashar or Seth) that "all is now/simultaneous" and that there is no past/future as such.
Here's also a short paragraph taken directly from his website and wiki:
All action (natural environmental dynamics and the choices representing the free will choices of the players) takes place in the present moment (one increment of PMR simulation time – DELTA-t). The future is actually a probable future (representing all possibilities) and exists only in terms of expectation values. It remains probabilistic (un-rendered) until required by game play – i.e., some player within the reality frame requires the data by making an interactive choice that causes something to happen (creates new information – something that can be measured and recorded). The past is recorded in two databases: a database of everything that happened (actualized past -- series of present moments reflecting the interactive choices of the players and the dynamics of the environment) and a database of everything significant that could have happened or had a high probability of happening, but didn’t (un-actualized past with the associated probability of each unactualized possibility).

I don't know if he's right but I like his take on it. It resonates more with me and the "all is now" one never really did, neither did the "all is illusion" thing that is constantly thrown out in channellings. Nevertheless they are not wrong in itself because TC's theory explains that they have value, and exist simultaneously and as kind of 'illusions', but differently:
The past (probable, actualised) and future (probable timelines) do exist "now" and simultaneously indeed as a reality-database, so if we define it like that then the past and future of course somehow simultaneously do exist. It's also my take on the quantum physics "many-worlds-" theory. I do not believe that new worlds are created, but that the consciousness system stores probablities and actualised data. So there is only one 'actualised' database = world / reality which is the one that is 'actualised' now by our choices (individual and as a collective) out of the probable timelins. And this "one world/reality" is the one we 'presently' live in. Hence, the saying that there's only "now" is not wrong imv. Neither is the term "illusion" when we refer it to the database information of probable future and not-actualised past.
Btw, there is also progression hypnosis instead of regression hypnosis. Taken Campbell's theory they might be then going into one of the (most) probable future databases when they talk about the future and their future lives that they 'might' or 'might not' decide on after this live and thus become 'actualised' as historical as seen from the future.
Here's an example of a 'progression' from Brian Weiss whose book I read and this excerpt is an interesting account of a future progression and also the info on the Middle East and North African areas being contaminated and no one living there ... which reflects maybe also today's situation and development?
It's intriguing since the book was published in 2004 already and this session might have been even earlier. It also corroborates the info in Robert A. Monroe's book when he went to Earth's future via astral projection (accessing the database?) beyond the year 3000 and found it to be 'emtpy' with lots of nature and sparsely populated areas by happy people.
Walter, a wealthy man who is a genius in the software business — went into the future on his own. And he didn’t go into his own lifetime — he jumped a millennium ahead!
He had come through dark clouds to find himself in a different world. Some of the areas, such as the Middle East and North Africa, were “off limits,” perhaps because of radiation damage, perhaps because of an epidemic, but the rest of the world was beautiful. There were far fewer people inhabiting it, because of nuclear catastrophe or plague or the lowering of the fertility rate. He remained in the countryside and so could not speak about cities, but the people were content, happy, even blissful. He said he hadn’t the right words to describe their state. Whatever had thinned the population had happened long before. What he saw was idyllic. He wasn’t sure of the date, but he was sure that it was more than a thousand years from now.

Of course, there is the negative info of world-wide disaster and depopulation by war and contamination - at least probabilistically but in part already actualized too? Let's not forget: Depleted uranium from past wars already contaminates some areas in the arabic world, such as Iraq. Or maybe it's even a repercussion of the elite's successful depopulation agenda? However we do not know how it came/will come about. Also not when, a millenium ahead is a loong time, so in case it becomes 'actualised' it might be farther in our future than we think.
