Most people have already read Journey of Souls, and often Destiny of Souls too, before they ever reach out to me. That is usually why they want to do the session in the first place, because reading the book provides encouragement to want to experience this world. I do not think it has an impact on the experience itself. Just recently I talked with someone who had read it and was blown away by it. So I cannot give you a cut and dry answer, do it or do not do it, because it is up to the individual. Here is what I would say. If you have not read it and you are concerned that it might give you expectations, then just do not read it. The session does not need the book. And if you have already read it, like most of my clients, you are in good company.

Some people worry that being hypnotized leaves you open for something negative to come in, and that is a religious view of hypnosis in general, that when you are hypnotized evil spirits can move in and become a part of you. Here is my experience. I have never had that happen in a session. That is not what happens, and I do not know of anybody who has ever seen it. What I have had is people who bring something like that in with them, and if I discover it, and usually I do, I can help them release it. You are not going to leave with something you did not bring in, and you are not going to pick something up as a result of the session. I also wrap you in protective light at the start, your own light from your heart, and your guides are not going to let you go to something you cannot handle.

Yes, in my experience a mother's intense emotions during pregnancy can leave a deep energetic imprint on the baby in the womb. One woman I worked with had carried an underlying anxiety her whole life and could never trace it to anything in her own story. When we revisited the womb under hypnosis, she found her mother in a state of constant fear and survival mode while pregnant, because her parents had recently fled the Holocaust. Once she could see that the fear belonged to her mother's history and not to her own modern body, she was able to separate the two and release it. Clients often tell me that kind of relief runs deep, because the anxiety finally has a source and a place to go.

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.

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.

Yes. We review the past life together right after you cross over at the end of that lifetime, and that is where we address anything physical or emotional that is still lingering. Then the session closes with a debriefing talk where you and I go over what you experienced. Because these sessions run long, Zoom records the whole thing automatically and I send you an audio copy afterward. That recording matters more than people expect. Details slip away in the days after a session, and hearing your own voice describe what you saw brings them right back. I recommend listening to it more than once with a notebook beside you so the insights have a chance to settle in.
