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.

Yes, and it is common. In my framework we plan our lifetimes together with our soul group, choosing friends who will play both supportive partners and challenging antagonists to spark our growth. During the past life review, or by giving your Higher Self the suggestion to go to your group, you can arrive in a beautiful non physical space where your spiritual family is gathered. Clients tell me the comfort of that meeting is hard to put into words. It confirms that you are never truly alone, and it often helps you recognize the karmic partners who keep showing up in your current life, and understand why they are there.

A Past Life Regression focuses on exploring a specific previous incarnation. A Life Between Lives session goes further. It does include a brief past life experience as a starting point, but the primary focus is on exploring the spirit world, where you have access to the full tapestry of your past lives, your soul group, your spirit guides, and a deeper understanding of your current life purpose. An LBL session is typically longer and works best when you have already experienced a Past Life Regression, as that foundation helps you reach the depth of trance the work requires.

The womb regression is an important transition step in your session. While you were developing in your mother's belly, your consciousness was highly sensitive and absorbed whatever she was feeling. If she went through fear, anxiety or panic during that time, you may have carried those emotions into adult life believing they were your own. In trance I guide you to look at the womb environment and notice what was actually going on. Clients are often surprised to realize that a heavy feeling they have had all their lives belonged to their mother. Once you see that clearly, you can hand it back and clear it from your energy, and many people describe a real sense of relief.

Those intuitive flashes, hunches and psychic knowings are often messages your spirit guides or Higher Self are dropping into your mind. Under hypnosis, 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. 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.

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.
