That is a question for your higher self in a Quantum Healing Hypnosis or Life Between Lives session. Some clients are told they will meet someone, and some are told they are flying solo this time, so I would not rule out a direct answer. If your soul chose a period of solitude in this life, knowing that changes how the solitude feels. You can also ask your guides what is blocking you from partnering successfully, because clearing those old barriers is where the real movement happens. My clients often find that once the block is gone they feel far more comfortable welcoming a loving connection.

It is possible. The problem is once you get in there, you tend to bring yourself out. I tried going to the spirit world on my own using a process called Ultra Height, which I learned from Gerald Kein, and when I got there it felt like my head was sticking up out of a rabbit hole, looking around at all this white. Then I thought, what do I do now, and the moment I started to think, I brought myself out. That is the challenge of navigating on your own. Figuring out what to do next pulls you out of the state. So rather than sitting down, closing your eyes and trying to go to a past life by yourself, I would suggest a recorded session or a group past life session. A recording is the least expensive, a group costs less than a one on one, and a group has a live energy that a recording does not have. I feed off of the people in the group just like they feed off of me. What makes the one on one session the most effective is the interaction, and that is what helps you bring more information out. Some people try a group or a recording first and use that to decide about a one on one, and in my experience the people who get the most out of a group are the ones who have already experienced a one on one session.

No, belief is not a requirement. You can come in seeing reincarnation as real, or seeing the whole thing as symbolic metaphor and stories your own mind creates, and the session still delivers insight either way. Your subconscious uses those narratives to bring up deep emotional understanding and loosen long standing blocks. What matters is an open mind and a willingness to let the impressions flow, whatever form they take. Skeptics are welcome. Curiosity is plenty to start with, and in my experience the people who arrive unsure are often surprised by how much comes through once they relax and let it happen.

Recurring dreams of combat or fighting are often your subconscious trying to process unhealed past life trauma, or a parallel lifetime, while you sleep. Sometimes that spills over into intense physical sensations or waking up exhausted. In hypnosis we can go into those recurring dream scenes safely, locate their original source, understand what they are trying to tell you and find emotional closure. Once the subconscious has done that work, it tends to let go of the protective loop it has been running at night. Clients who came to me with dreams like this often tell me their sleep became peaceful again. Your dreams are trying to get your attention. A session gives them somewhere to be heard.

Yes. Positive talents and abilities from past lives, things like writing, teaching, music or healing, are carried forward in your soul's cellular memory. One client of mine had always been drawn to flying, and on his very first lesson he could handle the plane by instinct, because he had been a pilot in a previous life. When we access those lifetimes in trance, I ask your subconscious mind to bring those positive talents forward with you. What tends to happen is that abilities you have barely touched become easier to learn and to amplify, and clients often find themselves using them in their careers or creative work in ways they had not expected.

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.
