It can happen, and if it does, it is important not to take it personally, because it is not you. It is a past life version of you. The soul is the same but the physical body is different. When a lifetime like that comes up, it comes up because there is some connection to the energy of that time and place in your life today. These situations come up so they can be better understood in terms of what is going on in your current life, processed in the most appropriate way, and released as part of the thorough review we do before you come back, while you are still relaxed. Part of the release is helping you understand that it is not you, and part of the process may involve the past life self forgiving themselves. And you stay in control the whole time. If you feel uncomfortable inside an experience, you can go from being in the body to being the observer watching it.

You are safe if the Zoom connection drops, and we have a plan for it before we begin. During the pre talk I establish a simple protocol. If you do not hear my voice for a minute or two, you come up just enough to deal with the situation. You do not emerge from hypnosis, you simply rise to a level where you can reconnect. Then you redial on Zoom or call me back on the phone and we resume where we left off. On my end I have fiber internet with a backup connection, and I block off an extra hour or two on my schedule so any connection hiccup can be managed without rushing your session. My clients tell me that knowing this ahead of time takes the worry off the table.

Yes, and it is common. The way I understand it, we plan our lifetimes together with our soul group, choosing friends who will play both supportive partners and challenging antagonists to spark our growth. In a Quantum Healing Hypnosis or Life Between Lives session we connect with spirit, and that connection can include your higher self, your spirit guides, your soul group and loved ones in spirit. Clients tell me the comfort of that meeting is hard to put into words. It confirms that you are never truly alone, and it often helps you recognize the karmic partners who keep showing up in your current life, and understand why they are there.

Those fast flashes are what some of my clients call fleeting images, so I use that term as well, and I can slow them down. Some of my clients are not especially visual, so a past life memory arrives as a quick scene that appears and vanishes, almost like a slide show. When that happens I use specific hypnotic suggestions that ask your subconscious to let the images settle and hold still long enough to look at. I also shift your attention away from your inner vision and toward what you feel in your body and your emotions, because those channels tend to be steadier. What typically happens is the scene stabilizes, and once it holds we can gather rich, detailed information from it just as we would from a vivid picture.

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.

No, your future is not set in stone. The way I understand it, you take part in a planning process before you are born. Your soul chooses your parents, your body and the main lessons you came here to learn, things like compassion or patience. What I have seen in sessions, though, is that this plan is a high level outline of major milestones rather than a minute by minute script. Once you are here, you have full free will. When you reach a crossroads in life, your choices decide which way you go, so what lies ahead is a set of probable outcomes rather than one fixed destiny. The plan gives you the big picture. How you walk it is up to you.
