Yes, you can set a clear intention before we go into hypnosis to visit a specific period, place or culture. I will say that your soul, or Higher Self, ultimately chooses the past life that holds the most important lesson for your growth right now, and that may or may not match what your logical mind is curious about. Even so, a strong intention set during our pre talk acts like a compass. In my experience it often guides your subconscious straight to the lifetime you have been drawn to. So bring the request. We will state it clearly and then let your Higher Self lead.

Knowing your past lives helps you grow because it shows you where a pattern actually started. Under deep hypnosis you observe significant events and emotional patterns from earlier lifetimes that carried over into this one, and you find what I call the initial seed, the moment it all began. Once you understand how a past situation is still shaping your reactions today, you can resolve it back in its original context rather than wrestling with the symptoms here. What tends to happen is that the heavy energy that was never cleared finally lets go on its own. Clients often tell me that is when they feel free to step into their real potential in the present.

Well, I guess the session will be over pretty quick. Here is the thing. There are two times when people tend to fall asleep. One is at the beginning, while I am taking you into hypnosis, which typically runs 20 to 25 minutes. The other is at the end, when I am teaching you self hypnosis so you can put yourself to sleep and sleep through the night, and some people take me literally right then. I have learned how to tell, and how to wake people up, even online. I have you take a deep breath throughout the session to help you relax, and if I say take a deep breath and you do not take one, either you have zoned out or you have gone to sleep. And once we are visiting the childhood, the womb and the past life, we are having a conversation. If you are asleep, you are not going to talk to me. So it is not really a problem. Speaking of sleep, many people tell me that after their session they get the best night's sleep they have had in a long, long time.

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.

That instant, unexplainable familiarity with someone is often a sign that your souls have shared many past lives. Souls travel and incarnate together in groups, working on shared lessons over many lifetimes and trading roles as spouses, siblings, parents and close friends. Before your session you fill out a cast of characters list with the important people in your life. As past life scenes come up, I cross reference that list, and clients are frequently surprised to recognize a current spouse or friend in a very different role. Seeing the original agreements and karmic bonds behind the connection tends to bring clarity, and many people come away understanding why this particular relationship feels so deep.

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.
