No, because this is not a reading. A past life reading is what people do with something called the Akashic Records, and that is a different thing. I am not a psychic. My wife is a psychic and a medium, she connects with those who have crossed over, and she would rather send past life work to me, because readings are her work and this is mine. In a session I don't tell you anything, I ask you things. I will tell you to go to the most appropriate time and place, and then you tell me what is going on. Once you are there I will ask you, what do you notice, tell me about it. You have the experience, you share it with me, and that tells me what to ask next to help you dig out additional insights. I don't paint a picture of anything. I don't talk about a monk or Egypt or whatever. I just let you do that. That is really what this is all about, me helping you find out more about what is going on with you.

Empaths are highly sensitive people who act like energetic sponges, soaking up the heavy emotional baggage of everyone around them and holding onto it. Over time that constant absorption can turn into emotional overload and real physical tension, and many empaths describe their sensitivity as both a superpower and a burden. Learning to clear and protect your own energy field is the key, and there are specific grounding and shielding techniques made for empaths. I share those tools during your private session and we fit them to you, so you leave knowing how to keep your boundaries comfortably in place. Clients often tell me the difference is that they can be with people again without carrying everyone's feelings home.

Brian Weiss is the psychiatrist who wrote Many Lives, Many Masters, and many people who contact me say that book is what first made them wonder whether the fears, relationships and unexplained patterns they carry might have a story that reaches beyond this lifetime. His other books include Only Love is Real, Messages from the Masters and Same Soul, Many Bodies. I took a class with him in Austin in 2005 through an Omega Institute program, right after I started learning hypnosis. It was a large group, around 150 people, and watching him guide a group process made the work real for me. It was no longer only something I had read about. If Many Lives, Many Masters is what brought you here, you are in good company. The full story is in the Teachers and Influences section of my blog.

This is one of the most powerful questions I have added to my list of commonly asked questions, and the answers rarely focus on material success, wealth or professional status. When clients pose it to their Higher Self or guides during the question and answer segment, the guidance typically directs them to look back from the end of their physical lifetime and evaluate their soul level progress. Seen from there, the most significant achievements are typically revealed to be your spiritual growth, learning to practice unconditional self love and the deep, loving connections you shared with others. Clients tell me this answer reorganizes their priorities more than almost anything else that comes up in a session. The full list of commonly asked questions is on the QHHT preparation page, under Sessions in the menu.

Difficult family relationships often go back to a plan your soul made before you were born. Our souls arrange family connections ahead of time, and they often set up challenging scenarios on purpose so we can learn something crucial like forgiveness, boundaries or self worth. A soul that needs to learn forgiveness, for example, may ask a close member of its own soul group to play the antagonist or the mean one in this life. That is a big favor to ask, and it is usually done out of love. When you recognize these pre birth agreements for yourself in a past life regression or QHHT session, many people find they can look at a hard relationship with compassion instead of anger.

Yes. Once a loved one crosses over, their consciousness stays fully awake and aware of your life, and in my experience they can hear your thoughts. Many of them stay close and step into the role of a spirit guide. During the question and answer portion of a quantum healing hypnosis session, a spouse, parent or family member who has passed can come forward. They may offer comfort, specific signs to watch for, or direct messages that arrive through your own voice or as an inner knowing. Clients often describe this part of the session as deeply healing, and for many it brings a sense of closure they had been missing.
