It has been said that we are like a tree, and as we grow through the years different branches grow upon us, reflecting different traumas and emotional experiences that we have been through.
Regression work would then be like following the branch back to the trunk to find the moment that created it in the first place. Then ideally our goal would be to remove all the branches, and return to our core and our roots, which symbolize our source of divine within.
Hypnosis is a powerful tool that allows us to break past the limiting beliefs and feelings that hold us back from the dreams and goals we have for our life. - In essence, it is a way to easily remove the obstacles in our life that keep us from realizing our true potential and happiness.
Hypnotherapy is one of those things that is greatly misunderstood. For the most part when people hear the word they get images of stage performers or far-fetched movie scenes of mind control. Despite how wild and mystical the entertainment world has tried to make it, hypnotherapy has still held its ground as a powerful and transformational healing tool.
So What is Hypnosis?
Hypnosis is a natural state of mind, one that we actually move in and out of throughout our normal day. It is a deeply relaxing state of mind in which we are able to tap into the power of our subconscious and super conscious mind in order to shift and change and create the things we dream of in our life. If we have a strong enough emotional desire for the change in our life, then hypnosis easily gives us the tools to empower the mind for change. But it is important to understand, if we do not really want the change to happen….then it won't.
How Does Hypnosis Work?
Hypnosis is a way for us to enter into our subconscious mind and communicate directly with it. It is tool to relax the mind so we can bypass our critical factor become consciously aware of all the thoughts and beliefs that are running our life, and then we can reprogram and insert new positive constructive ideas that are in line with helping us reach our goals.
This is extremely important because our subconscious overrides everything.
Freedom from unwanted habits
Sleeping better
Less anxiety/stress
Improve Memory
Better Performance
Discover life purpose
Pain Management
Prosperity
Better Relationships
How does information even get into the subconscious mind?
Information gets into our subconscious mind in a few different ways. One of the main ways information enters is through very emotionalized moments in our life Other ways include authority figures, peers, repetition and of course, hypnosis. But most programming running in our subconscious entered before the age of ten when our critical faculty didn't exist yet. Once these thoughts enter our subconscious mind, they will continue to run our life until they are changed in our subconscious mind.
DID YOU KNOW.....
IT HAS BEEN SHOWN THAT HYPNOSIS ACCELERATES US TOWARDS OUR GOALS. PSYCHIATRISTS WHO UTILIZE HYPNOTHERAPY OFTEN REDUCE THEIR THERAPEUTIC PROCESS TO LESS THAN 1/8TH OF THE TIME FORMERLY NEEDED FOR SIMILAR RESULTS WITHOUT HYPNOTHERAPY!
What is Regression Hypnotherapy
Regression hypnosis is a general term that describes a process of going "back in time" to a moment that still holds an emotional charge for us. This could be as little as a few minutes ago to as far back as past life memories. In either case, the process is similar because our goal is to find the core of the pain or emotional trauma, and then begin the process of being able to love and forgive all in that moment.
Regression hypnosis is an endless tool towards helping us reach our goals. Because it is so adaptable, it can help guide someone who is experiencing a feeling of despair or lack of purpose in life to someone who may be needing a better edge in overcoming a habit.
Even though I have a deep resonance with past life work and between life work, it is my desire to remain neutral and flow with the beliefs of my clients in order to not influence in any way the regression process. Many times clients will have past life regressions but choose not to acknowledge them as anything more than their imagination and that is perfectly ok, because the healing work happens all the same.
Our subconscious mind is the gateway to our higher wisdom or higher mind. That place inside that is connected to an infinite source of resources and answers. Regression work is like a doorway that opens us up to this abundance and again this is done by following the signs and messages of our body, because our body is one of the voices our subconscious uses to speak to us. Those butterflies in our stomachs, lumps in our throats or any other automatic feeling that just comes up, are all messages that we can grab onto and ride to the root of their source in order to create the changes.
The great thing is that we can heal the past in the present and the present in the past in order to create the desired results we are seeking.
Basically ALL hypnosis is regression hypnosis because we are accessing our subconscious which is the place where our memories are stored.
Regression work is a window into patterns that we may be repeating over and over that we are completely unaware of. Many of these are blocks and beliefs that are directly in the way of us achieving what we want in our life. What ever it is that we are ready to heal, our subconscious will take us to exactly the right time and the right place in order for us to heal our self on a physical, emotional and spiritual level.
Past Life Hypnosis
How many times have you experienced emotions that just don't make any sense? Or maybe there are people in your life that for some reason are far more difficult to get along with than others? Or possibly you have found certain patterns in your life that just seem to happen over and over again. Does the question come to your mind that possibly it comes from a past life? Then maybe your inner wisdom is trying to tell you something.
Past life experiences have been documented and studied for a very long time. Many cultures hold it as a group belief and it has been eluded to in the myths and history of our many cultures. It is the idea that we are more than our body on a spiritual journey and that lessons will carry over from one life to the next until we have cleared them away.
I tend to find it interesting that it is usually those that don't "believe" or put any merit to the idea, are the ones that produce the most illuminating cases of past life experiences! One great example of this is Dr. Brian Weiss who is one of the leading teachers in past life regression.
A past life regression session is more than just trying to figure out if we were someone famous in the past. The purpose is not to get stuck on the details. It doesn't serve to create an identity from them or justify current "problems" with them, but rather to find the bigger picture. The bigger patterns in our life that are continuing to affect us in the now.
And what about people in our life that our difficult? Remember discomfort is our inspiration for change, it is the way that we can become aware of what we need to heal or what we came to do. It has happened over and over that people will discover in past life sessions that a particular person causing them trouble is something they both agreed upon ahead of time in order to inspire healing. Or it may be that there was a past life disharmony with a person and just becoming aware of it seems to ease the friction in current time. What ever the case may be, there is ultimately a shift that takes place that sets the stage for clearing the blocks and bringing one back in alignment with soul and purpose.
One of the most profound lessons that can come from past life sessions is the expanding of our awareness to our interconnection with others and a bigger picture of our reason for being here now.
Sessions are 2 hrs.
(Can also be booked as additional sessions after initial QHHT or Soul Session)
Let’s look at some of the frequently asked questions about hypnosis
Who can be hypnotized?
Almost everyone can be hypnotized save for a few exceptions. These exceptions are people with severe mental disabilities, people with very low IQ’s and very young children. In these cases it is actually because they may not be able to understand the words you are saying or focus their attention long enough to follow your instructions. Hypnosis is actually very similar to being in meditation or even daydreaming and that comes about by relaxation of the mind. If you are able to read a book and follow simple instructions you can be hypnotized. The only real requirement is your desire to be hypnotized. Hypnotherapy does not require more than a light trance state which everyone can easily achieve with training.
How many sessions will I need?
On average it takes between four to six sessions per change. Some people may gain their goals in one session and others may take more than six. One of the biggest key factors for this is how ready you are for the change. Sometimes there are layers of beliefs in our subconscious around one issue and many times just removing even one negative belief and replacing it with a positive one, creates a ripple effect that begins the healing process. I offer potential clients a free, introductory consultation where we can meet and talk about the issue in more detail and create a session plan that fits for you.
Will I do anything against my will? Can I be controlled?
No, you will not ever do anything you feel is unacceptable or against your nature. You are in complete control at all times.
One of the questions I get asked the most is “Can I bring my husband/wife in and have you hypnotize them for me and tell them ______ “? And my answer is…NO! If hypnosis worked like that I’m pretty sure every marriage would already be perfect and learning hypnosis would actually be in the newlywed’s manual for "how to train your husband or wife”.
The truth is all hypnosis is actually self-hypnosis. We go into hypnosis because of our willingness and desire to do so. If we did not want to, then we would not. In the hypnotic state we still hold our individuality, our ego if you will, and if something was suggested that wasn’t in alignment with our beliefs, we would either just reject it or come out of hypnosis completely.
Am I going to tell all my deep dark secrets?
Hypnosis is not a truth serum. If you wanted to you could lie or fabricate things. If there is something that you are protecting, then you will continue to do so even in hypnosis. The key thing here is “if you wanted to”. Generally is someone is booking a session then they are in a cooperative space and want to speak the truth in order to create the change they desire in their life. It is in your best interest to share information as it comes to you with your hypnotherapist in order to better assist the session toward reaching your goal.
Will I remember what happened during my session?
Yes, you will remember everything that takes place in your session. In fact, in hypnosis all of your senses become heightened and you are more aware of everything going on around you. The difference in this awareness is that you are in such a relaxed state that you choose not to react to any of it, even allowing the sounds to take you deeper into your trance state. This heightened awareness allows us to communicate easily with our subconscious through our imagination and feelings. If you happen to forget parts of your session, the post session talk will help trigger your memory with the rest. This occurs in a similar way to the recounting of a lecture or speech, we remember the key points that stood out to us first and then the rest comes back to us later in bits.
Are audio CD's as effective as individual sessions?
No, audio CD's and group sessions alone have a significantly lower success rate than a session with a hypnotherapist. The best use of audio cd’s is as an accelerator to use at home in between sessions to lock in the new habit into the subconscious. In general it takes approximately 30 to 60 days to replace an old habit with a new one.
Are Zoom sessions as effective as in-person sessions?
Absolutely! Zoom sessions offer the same level of connection and effectiveness for the guidance through the session. Many prefer this type of session because you don’t need to drive after being in such a relaxed state and can be home and comfortable to process all that came up without having to get back into the physical space of being in public or traffic.
