Regression to Cause is a foundational hypnotherapy technique for finding the initial sensitizing event, the very first moment behind a current block, fear or unwanted habit. It builds a bridge backward in time and follows the feeling to where it began, and that can be earlier in this life or in a past life. The details of the event are not the important part. Discovering the emotion is. Once we are standing at the origin we resolve it there, and in past life work that origin is often the lifetime where the whole pattern started. Finding the true source is what makes the release hold.

We keep going, and I do not charge extra for the additional time. I treat session length as a moving target because I refuse to rush your healing. A Past Life Regression typically takes three to three and a half hours and Quantum Healing Hypnosis four to five, but I block off more than that on my calendar, four hours for PLR and six for QHHT, so there is room. If you are in the middle of something important or a past life review when the typical time is up, I stay with you until the process is safely and fully finished. My clients often tell me that knowing there is no clock running is part of what lets them relax so deeply.

It can happen, especially if you put down too many questions. A page to a page and a half is really the best limit. I do not give a number, but do not write in a tiny font to squeeze more in, because what happens with too many questions is the answers start repeating. The questions might be different, the answers start to repeat. Here is the thing though. I do not work by the clock, and I leave a pad at the end of my session. I had a Quantum Healing Hypnosis session recently where we talked longer than usual up front because she needed that, she was starting to get tired, and we did not get to her questions at all, so I invited her back for a follow up session at no charge to get to them. Typically we do get to the most important questions. Put yours in priority order with the important ones at the top. I will not always ask them in that order, because what I have learned over the years is that the big questions get a better answer once we have rapport going with spirit, with your higher self or your guide. So I might hold a big one back until that rapport is established, and if I skip your first few questions, I will come back to them.

The easiest tell is how the message arrives. Your own logical thoughts involve active thinking, weighing and planning, and you can feel yourself doing the work. A message from your spirit guides or Higher Self lands all at once as a sudden clear hunch or a knowing, and my clients describe it the same way again and again, saying something like this just popped into my head. It arrives without effort and feels distinct from thinking. Learning to trust that line of communication without arguing with it is a real milestone in spiritual development. At the end of your session I teach you a self hypnosis anchor so you can settle into the relaxed state where those messages are easiest to recognize and trust on your own.

Normal daily medication has not stopped my clients from going into hypnosis. Hypnosis is a natural brainwave state your mind already visits every day, and people arrive at sessions on all kinds of prescriptions and still go deep. You keep taking whatever you are prescribed exactly as you normally do. On the rare occasion that a session is interrupted or does not get going the way we want, my policy is simply to stop and reschedule another session at no extra charge, so there is nothing to lose by giving it a try. If you have any concern about your particular situation, bring it up on the discovery call and we can talk it through together.

A stubborn emotional block, a professional anxiety or a relationship pattern in this life often traces back to what hypnotists call an initial sensitizing event, or to a self protective contract your soul made in a past life. I use a technique called regression to cause. It guides you back to the exact moment that block or belief locked into place. Once you examine and understand the original situation, your subconscious gets to see that the old protection has done its job and can be set down. What tends to happen is that the contract releases, the modern block loosens with it, and clients often tell me they finally feel able to move forward with confidence.
