The Council of Elders is a group of highly advanced, loving spiritual beings you meet during a Life Between Lives session. They are not there to judge you. Think of them more as a loving board of trustees who review your past incarnations and your soul's progress with you. During this meeting I bring in the list of questions you prepared, so you can ask the Council directly about your overall life purpose, the lessons you chose, and the agreements you made before choosing your current body and life path. My clients often describe this as the most meaningful part of the whole LBL experience, because the answers come from the beings who helped plan the life you are living now.

Yes, it is extremely common. Our souls incarnate across genders, nationalities, cultures and social classes to experience a rich, well rounded spectrum of lessons. In the hypnotic state people regularly discover lifetimes lived as the other gender. Experiencing these varied lives lets your subconscious mind draw on the wisdom of many perspectives. It also explains a lot of the unexplainable attractions people bring to me, that pull toward a specific culture, a style of jewelry, ancient pottery or a particular historical era. My clients often find the life they visit lines up with something they have loved for no reason they could name.

Emotional constipation is my term for what happens to empaths and highly sensitive people who unconsciously absorb other people's stress, grief or anger and store it in their own bodies. That energetic buildup tends to show up as physical tension, worry and fatigue, and you may not connect it to anyone else at all. In a private session I actively locate where those absorbed emotions are being held in your physical body. Then I guide you through a safe release process and teach you custom grounding techniques you can use on your own afterward. Clients often tell me they feel lighter and more balanced once that buildup has cleared, and the grounding tools help them keep it from stacking up again.

Feeling stuck or disjointed during a time like this usually means your old identity is shifting and you are starting to perceive reality beyond the physical, and the ground moves under you for a while. In a Quantum Healing Hypnosis session we connect with your Higher Self or your spirit guides and ask directly. What comes back are clear, actionable downloads that explain why these transitional obstacles are showing up and what your purpose is as you move forward. Once you understand what the shift is doing, my clients typically find the anxiety eases, the old energies are easier to release, and they can step into a more integrated version of themselves rather than sitting in the in between.

I feel that I connect with my own guides, as well as others in spirit, during sessions, and one way I do that is through my pendulum and sometimes muscle testing. I cannot say for sure where the answers come from. It may be my guides, your guides, the Masters of Light I have written about on the blog, or another guide who is a guide to one of your guides, but there is a connection, and the answers come. During an active session they let me quickly double check information, verify the exact identity of the spiritual guides or attachments present, and confirm that an energetic block, a negative contract or an earthbound soul attachment has fully cleared before we move forward. Think of it as a second line on the phone. The answers come through your voice first, and these tools give me a fast, reliable way to check them.

Because a Life Between Lives session asks for a great deal of hypnotic depth and a very quiet mind, and that takes some preparation. LBL is the pinnacle of spiritual regression, and a Past Life Regression or QHHT session comes first. When I check a client's readiness for LBL with my pendulum or muscle testing, my guides often suggest waiting two to three months after that first session. The gap gives you time to process and integrate what came up in the past life work, builds up what I call your hypnotic muscle memory, and leaves you energetically prepared to enter the spirit realm comfortably. In my experience that patience pays off in the depth of the LBL session itself.
