Michael Newton wrote Journey of Souls and Destiny of Souls, the books that introduced Life Between Lives hypnotherapy to the world, and the institute that carries his name still trains and certifies LBL practitioners today. Life Between Lives is the name he gave to deep hypnotic work centered on the period between incarnations, what your soul does after one life and before the next. I found out in 2007 that he was coming out of retirement to teach, and I made sure to be there. I traveled to Chicago that year to train with him, and that training is when I decided to specialize in spiritual hypnotherapy. I later served as a teaching assistant for LBL training, spent time with Michael at the Newton Institute strategy meeting at San Damiano in 2011, and returned there for LBL teacher training in 2014. The full story is in the Teachers and Influences section of my blog.

Yes, every session is recorded automatically through Zoom, so you do not need to record anything yourself. The recording is set to start the moment our meeting opens. After we finish I process the audio file and send you a copy. I encourage you to listen to it in a quiet place afterward, because hearing your own voice describe the experience tends to bring back more conscious recall, and my clients often find that listening is where the insights really settle in and become part of daily life.

That question comes up quite often in discovery calls, and my answer is that the validation comes from you, not from me. When the information comes up, it enters your imagination so you can put it into words, so it can seem like you are making it up. If it feels like you are making it up, here is what you do, keep making it up. Don't fight it. After you open your eyes, I will ask you, do you think you made that up, and we will have a conversation about it. I talk about this in the preparation video as well. Here is something else. What about dreams? Do you just make up your dreams, or where do those come from? When you experience something in a past life and there is a change that goes on in your life today, that is the icing on the cake. And if it is not real, I call it more metaphor. There is still something there for you to learn.

We come to Earth to experience specific challenges and learn crucial soul lessons, and before you incarnate you make pre birth agreements with other members of your soul group to help you grow. If you need to learn a difficult lesson like forgiveness, you might recruit a close, loving soul friend to play a negative role in your life, being mean to you or acting as an antagonist. Who would agree to that? Only someone who loves you very much. Recognizing these pre birth soul contracts in a session helps you shift your perspective. My clients often find they can release anger and view their difficult relationships with deep love and compassion once they discover the agreement underneath.

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.

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.
