Everybody is curious, and that is fine. The time I kind of push back on curiosity is when there is nothing else. Why do you want to do this? I'm just curious. What are you curious about? I want to know who I was in a past life. I like to say it like this. There's no meat on those bones. You need a stronger intention than just curiosity. What do you want that you do not have right now? What would you like to be different in your life after the session? Most clients also have something in the back of their head questioning whether this is real, and that is always there, that is fine too. Once you go through these experiences, once you notice things, realize things, notice changes in your life, it is a lot more than curiosity. And you know what they say about curiosity and the cat, so watch out.

Sometimes, yes. Clients who explore unexplained digestive or stomach discomfort in hypnosis sometimes connect those sensations to a previous lifetime. In my experience these are carryovers, a kind of phantom trigger the subconscious has held onto. Looking back at the event from a safe, detached observer's perspective lets you process what happened and release the emotional tension tied to it. Clients often tell me they feel lighter afterward. The session is about understanding what your subconscious has been carrying and giving it a chance to let go.

Of course you can. Quite often my clients mention my therapist this, my therapist that. Any kind of hypnotherapy, I consider it to be complementary, and I choose that word deliberately. Alternative would mean you do not need your talk therapy, and that is not what I am saying. This can add another dimension to what you are already doing. You can bring the idea up with your therapist, and some therapists are really open to this work. I teach therapists how to do hypnosis, and a lot of the ones I teach go on to learn past life as well. Some are not open to hypnosis at all, much less past life, and that is true in any profession, some are open, some are not. I worked with a pastor in Houston who did a Life Between Lives session because his brother passed away, so there are plenty of people you might suspect would not be open to this who actually are. Here is the thing though. With past life there is really no gray area, people either believe it or they do not. So if you feel drawn to this work, do not let other people's views or judgment of it influence your decision.

They hold a high bar, and you formally apply rather than simply signing up. They look for at least 200 hours of formal hypnosis and regression training, hypnotherapy and past life regression training completed through an approved instructor, and real experience in the chair. That last one is the part people underestimate. They want one to two years of active practice and at least 40 documented past life regression sessions with your own clients before you enroll. My courses are approved to satisfy those prerequisites, and I will be honest with you about where you are on that road whenever you want to talk it through.

Intense, irrational likes and dislikes are very often carryovers from previous lives. An obsession with the Victorian era, a strong aversion to a particular culture, a refusal to watch anything medieval like Game of Thrones, these tend to have a story behind them. Your soul carries cellular memories of where you have lived and how you died. In my experience an obsession usually points to a comforting lifetime where you were happy and fulfilled, while a severe aversion typically marks a past life of real suffering in that region or era, imprisonment, trauma, or a hard death. A regression lets you go back and discover where the feeling comes from.

After a session, you may feel deeply relaxed, peaceful, and perhaps a bit tired. It is common to experience a shift in perspective and a greater sense of clarity about your life. The insights gained during the regression often continue to unfold over the following days and weeks. I always recommend taking some quiet time for reflection after our work together, allowing the profound wisdom of your soul to fully integrate.
