It can, and it is a valid thing to explore. Dealing with generational or ancestral trauma is not something I always bring up, but it is something you can bring up in your questions, and we can tap into those insights, even if you do not know whether there is something there or not. The main thing we are working with in every session is how the past life impacts your life today, how the events, the situations, the choices and the decisions made in a past life impact the current life. If that happens to involve generational or ancestral trauma, it is possible it could come up during the past life part of the session, but chances are this will be more of a question in a Quantum Healing Hypnosis session, or maybe a Life Between Lives. Sometimes a client even discovers they were their own relative in an earlier generation, and there is a separate answer about that on this site.

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.

The honest answer is that this work has limits, and it is better you know them up front. It is not always a visual experience, and some people with very analytical minds need a little extra help getting out of their head. Things can come up that happened in a past life that are uncomfortable, and if you do not deal with them during the experience, it is possible that they may linger, which is why it is best to have somebody working with you instead of going it alone with a recording. The problem with a recording is you cannot interact with it. Preparation matters too. I have rescheduled a session rather than rush someone through it unprepared. What I can tell you is that you are in control at all times, and your guides are not going to let you go to something you cannot handle.

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.

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.

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.
