Keep your list to one page, a page and a half at most, and group the questions by category such as physical health, relationships and life purpose. The most important thing is how you phrase them. Ask How and What questions rather than Why questions. What do I need to do to improve my career gets a practical, actionable answer from your Higher Self, while why is my career stuck tends to bring back the same theme over and over. Focusing your questions on action and resolution is what draws out the deep, useful answers my clients come away with. The commonly asked questions on the QHHT preparation page, under Sessions in the menu, give you an idea of what you can ask. They are examples only, and your list should be about you and your situation.

Yes, it is a common discovery in hypnosis. In my framework souls often reincarnate within the same family line to keep working on shared lessons or to resolve old karma together. During a past life regression you might find that you were your own great grandparent, an uncle or an aunt a few generations back. Clients often tell me that this brings real clarity to recurring family dynamics. It also explains the strong familiarity some people feel with certain ancestral homes, heirlooms or relatives, a sense of already knowing a place or a person that they could never account for. The family you were born into may be one you have been part of for a very long time.

You can, and I teach you how at the end of your session. Your guides are listening and sending messages all the time. The main thing in the way is the analytical mind asking whether the guidance is real. So before I bring you out of trance I teach you a self hypnosis anchoring technique you keep for life. When you practice it for a few minutes each day, the critical chatter quiets, you settle into a relaxed state, and you become able to receive and trust intuitive signs or direct answers from your guides. Many of my clients find this daily practice becomes the part of the session they use most, because it gives them an open line of communication that does not depend on having me there.

You do not need to deliver eloquent descriptions for this to go well. There is no right or wrong way to experience trance, and once the analytical mind steps aside, words come more easily than you expect. I keep my questions gentle and open, things like what do you notice and tell me more, and I let your impressions come out at their own pace. It is a collaboration rather than a performance. Quiet and anxious clients typically find they feel comfortable within a few minutes and share their journey just fine, and some of the richest sessions I have facilitated came from people who barely said a word in everyday life.

Recurring dreams of combat or fighting are often your subconscious trying to process unhealed past life trauma, or a parallel lifetime, while you sleep. Sometimes that spills over into intense physical sensations or waking up exhausted. In hypnosis we can go into those recurring dream scenes safely, locate their original source, understand what they are trying to tell you and find emotional closure. Once the subconscious has done that work, it tends to let go of the protective loop it has been running at night. Clients who came to me with dreams like this often tell me their sleep became peaceful again. Your dreams are trying to get your attention. A session gives them somewhere to be heard.

I prefer to clearly see your face and your chest rise so I can monitor your breathing and confirm you are in trance rather than drifting off to sleep. If the camera angle or the connection makes that hard, I have a reliable backup. I ask you to count backward from three to one out loud. That simple conversational check lets me hear the tone, pacing and emotional depth of your voice, and those tell me clearly that you are in a safe, deep state of hypnosis. It happens without interrupting your experience at all. Between the camera, the count and the ongoing conversation we keep through the whole session, I always have a good read on where you are.
