Yes. I work with nicotine and behavioral habits regularly. In my experience the physical part of a nicotine habit passes within three to five days. The real hold is the program between your ears, the one that links the habit to specific anchors, like reaching for a vape the moment the phone rings. Hypnosis lets us step past the conscious mind and find the emotional trigger, or sometimes a past life contract, that has you reaching for it in the first place. When that original emotional seed is cleared, the craving tends to lose its grip, and I replace the old anchors with healthy ones before we finish. Many of my clients are surprised at how little effort it takes once the trigger is gone.

Michael Newton wrote Journey of Souls and Destiny of Souls, the books that introduced Life Between Lives hypnotherapy to the world, and the institute that carries his name still trains and certifies LBL practitioners today. Life Between Lives is the name he gave to deep hypnotic work centered on the period between incarnations, what your soul does after one life and before the next. I found out in 2007 that he was coming out of retirement to teach, and I made sure to be there. I traveled to Chicago that year to train with him, and that training is when I decided to specialize in spiritual hypnotherapy. I later served as a teaching assistant for LBL training, spent time with Michael at the Newton Institute strategy meeting at San Damiano in 2011, and returned there for LBL teacher training in 2014. The full story is in the Teachers and Influences section of my blog.

Well, I guess the session will be over pretty quick. Here is the thing. There are two times when people tend to fall asleep. One is at the beginning, while I am taking you into hypnosis, which typically runs 20 to 25 minutes. The other is at the end, when I am teaching you self hypnosis so you can put yourself to sleep and sleep through the night, and some people take me literally right then. I have learned how to tell, and how to wake people up, even online. I have you take a deep breath throughout the session to help you relax, and if I say take a deep breath and you do not take one, either you have zoned out or you have gone to sleep. And once we are visiting the childhood, the womb and the past life, we are having a conversation. If you are asleep, you are not going to talk to me. So it is not really a problem. Speaking of sleep, many people tell me that after their session they get the best night's sleep they have had in a long, long time.

We come to Earth to experience specific challenges and learn crucial soul lessons, and before you incarnate you make pre birth agreements with other members of your soul group to help you grow. If you need to learn a difficult lesson like forgiveness, you might recruit a close, loving soul friend to play a negative role in your life, being mean to you or acting as an antagonist. Who would agree to that? Only someone who loves you very much. Recognizing these pre birth soul contracts in a session helps you shift your perspective. My clients often find they can release anger and view their difficult relationships with deep love and compassion once they discover the agreement underneath.

Connecting with your Higher Self is part of the Quantum Healing Hypnosis session, and it is one of the most natural parts of the work, typically from your very first one. To prepare, you write a list of the personal questions that matter most to you. Once you are in a deep hypnotic state, the Theta brainwave frequency, your logical, analytical thoughts step aside. Then I speak directly to your Higher Self and ask it to answer through your voice, or to deliver sudden, clear knowings. Clients often say something like "this just popped in my head," and that is exactly it. What you end up with is an open line of communication and clear spiritual guidance on the questions you brought. The video on the QHHT preparation page, under Sessions in the menu, goes deeper into this connection and is worth watching before your session.

Start with either a Past Life Regression or a Quantum Healing Hypnosis session. Those are the two entry points, and either one gives you a solid foundation before you go after the deepest soul memories in a Life Between Lives session. Think of that first regression as training for your mind. It learns to translate subconscious impressions comfortably, you get used to connecting with spirit, and you build a baseline of experience that makes the later, deeper exploration meaningful instead of overwhelming. QHHT is the most popular first session with my clients. I suggest Past Life Regression mainly for people who already know they are headed toward Life Between Lives. Both start the same journey of healing and raising your vibration, and we can sort out which fits you on a discovery call.
