Hypnosis feels like the natural state you pass through right before falling asleep, when you are neither fully awake nor fully asleep. Here is how I describe the brainwave states to my clients. Beta is your active, conscious waking state. Alpha is light meditation or light hypnosis. Theta is the deep trance where past lives are accessed, often accompanied by fluttering eyes. Delta is deep sleep or profound trance. Unlike sleep, where your conscious mind switches off, in hypnosis and meditation you remain fully aware of your surroundings. The difference between the two is direction. Meditation is about stillness, while hypnosis is active and goal oriented, with a conversation running the whole time.

Yes, it can. Physical discomfort that has no clear explanation is often a carryover from a fatal injury in a past life, a kind of muscle memory the body is still holding. One client of mine had years of shoulder pain that traced straight back to being crushed by a falling rock in a previous lifetime. In the session we follow the sensation back to its original cause. Once your subconscious realizes the injury belongs to a body you no longer have, the unhealed energetic trauma has a chance to release. Clients often tell me that the discomfort they came in with eases noticeably, and sometimes what they had lived with for years simply stops making sense to their body.

Yes, I teach every client self hypnosis right before bringing them out of trance. I guide you to establish and anchor a special place, a beautiful, personalized inner sanctuary such as a garden, a beach or a mountain waterfall. Then I give you a simple countdown and breathing trigger that lets you return to that deeply relaxed state at home whenever you want. The practice trains your mind to quiet its logical, analytical thoughts, and that is what makes it easy to comfortably connect, communicate and receive clear intuitive guidance from your Higher Self and your spirit guides on your own. My clients often use it for years afterward as a way to keep the conversation going.

Your spirit guides are loving, non physical beings who watch over you and help you from the spirit world. When a guide or a whole spirit team steps forward during a past life regression or quantum healing hypnosis session, one of the first things I ask is for a specific name, because a name gives you a clearer connection to hold onto. Sometimes a guide offers a simple nickname to get started, and sometimes they confirm they are happy with whatever name you already use for them in meditation. Either way, you leave the session with a recognizable relationship you can keep building. That makes it much easier to reach out to them on your own in the self hypnosis exercises you take home.

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.

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.
