No, because this is not a reading. A past life reading is what people do with something called the Akashic Records, and that is a different thing. I am not a psychic. My wife is a psychic and a medium, she connects with those who have crossed over, and she would rather send past life work to me, because readings are her work and this is mine. In a session I don't tell you anything, I ask you things. I will tell you to go to the most appropriate time and place, and then you tell me what is going on. Once you are there I will ask you, what do you notice, tell me about it. You have the experience, you share it with me, and that tells me what to ask next to help you dig out additional insights. I don't paint a picture of anything. I don't talk about a monk or Egypt or whatever. I just let you do that. That is really what this is all about, me helping you find out more about what is going on with you.

Yes, this is called a proxy session, and I offer it for younger children and children with special needs where direct hypnosis is not appropriate or practical. In a proxy session I hypnotize a parent, usually the mother, and guide her through childhood, the womb and a past life to build energetic depth. Once she is connected with her Higher Self, I ask permission to connect with the child's Higher Self. The child's Higher Self then speaks directly to me through the parent's voice, offering profound insights, explanations for behaviors and direct healing guidance for the family. Parents often tell me it is the first time they have understood what their child has been trying to communicate.

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.

The hypnotherapy certification. There is no way around it and no shortcut through it. The 220 hour program certified through IACT is the foundation the rest of the path stands on. From there you take past life regression, which is a six day class across two consecutive three day weekends, covering childhood memories, womb regression and past lifetimes, because the Newton Institute expects a regressionist to be fluent in those timelines before LBL training. Spiritual Connection and Communication comes after that. Each step is built to make the next one possible.

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.

Those intuitive flashes, hunches and psychic knowings are often messages your spirit guides or Higher Self are dropping into your mind. In the hypnotic state, clients discover that what they had been writing off as random thoughts, odd coincidences or their brain doing something weird is actually real spiritual guidance. In a Quantum Healing Hypnosis session you can ask your guides about your gifts directly and how to use them. From there we work on trusting it. I teach self hypnosis anchors and progressive relaxation so you can quiet the logical, analytical part of your mind on your own. With practice, many people learn to hear these signals comfortably, recognize them when they arrive and trust them enough to navigate their lives by them. Understanding the gift is the first step, and using it well is the second.
