Frequently Asked Questions

To help you feel informed and at ease, here are some answers to some of the most common questions about hypnosis to help you feel confident about your journey.

"What If I Recall Traumatic Events?"

Our intention is not to seek out and label events as 'traumatic'. We are regressing to 'causative' events. Often causative events are not traumatic. It can be surprising how small events have a large long-lasting affect. Often events seemed traumatic then, but by going through them now, with my support, you can approach them with curiosity and peaceful confidence.

Sometimes causative events can bring up strong emotions. That's not a 'bad' thing, it's 'helpful' because it means we have found a residue from the past that is still affecting you now. You may have been sweeping it under the rug, but tripping up over it. Our sessions are a great opportunity to pull up the rug, shine a light on it, and clean it up, so it can't trip you up any more.

"I am afraid of what I might find..."

Your subconscious has a natural protection mechanism so it won’t give you any experience you can’t handle. So if you are experiencing it, you can handle it. We will not push your subconscious to do anything it does not want to. We will ask permission along the way. You retain a conscious awareness of what is going on, and you retain control, so you can stop it if you want to. You can speak to me at any time during the regression and let me know if there’s something you do or don’t want to do. Generally it’s best to stay with it enough to work through it and resolve it, that is why you are here. Finding an emotionally powerful cause is better than not finding something.

"What if I'm nervous or resistant to be hypnotized?"

We will spend a lot of time getting to know one another before hypnosis. In our first session, we will have a interview, and we will take the time for you to understand the hypnosis process, we go over FAQs and answer any questions you might have. After all of that is out of the way, we start with a relaxing hypnotic induction or guided meditation to a peaceful state that’s between waking and sleeping, or like daydreaming. You don’t have to try, just relax and focus on my words and the instructions with an easy-going positive attitude. Hypnosis is not unconsciousness. You retain some conscious awareness even as you gain access to your subconscious. If you are still feeling nervous or resistant, we can incorporate other forms of hypnosis such as NLP or types of mindfulness to further prepare you for your session.

"How Will I Experience Hypnosis?"

Each person, and each time, can be different. The body can feel heavy or light, sinking or floating, tingling or warm. The mind could feel calm and clear, concentrated and focused, daydreamy and drifty, peaceful or confident. You may drift away from the words, but drift into the spirit of the communication. You can remain in hypnosis whether your eyes are open or closed, whether you are speaking or silent, whether you are still or moving. The emotions can cover the full range and still remain in hypnosis. Going deeply into any emotion is a hypnotic experience.

"Will I lose control in Hypnosis? Can you make me do things I don't want to do?"

Hypnosis is nothing more than a 'relaxed state of consciousness' beyond your conscious mind. You are completely in control of your hypnosis experience and coherent the entire time. You will not lose control. You have the ability to pull yourself out of the hypnotic state at any point during the experience. Think of it as a deep meditation where we are quieting your conscious mind and bringing forth your subconscious mind. As your hypnotherapist, I work as your guide in sessions to help you navigate and recall your memories. I ask your subconscious open-ended questions to gather information, making sure never to put ideas into your head that are not your own, and navigate you through your memories. I cannot make you do anything against your will, since you are coherent and in control throughout the entire experience.

"Will I remember what we talked about during the session?"

Most people are able to recall their entire hypnotic experience upon waking from the hypnotic state. It will appear to many as if having been daydreaming, with the full ability to recall their regression. Most people will have epiphanies in their sessions as to which those are difficult to forget- they are big parts of our Soul's journey!

"What if I can't visualize, how will I be able to see in hypnosis?"

Information comes through to us in many ways. Visualization happens in many ways other than seeing, it's more so about experiencing a situation. Visualization comes through in different senses such as sight, sound, smell, feeling, knowing. Regression can come through to us in pictures, clips from what seems like movies, flashes of images, sounds, and quite possibly even nothing but a deep sense of knowing.

"Can I Be Hypnotised?"

You can decide to block the hypnotic process. If you decide to work with the hypnotic process to achieve your goals, you can. It’s your choice. You can decide right now that you are a good hypnotic subject. If you think you can, you’re right. If you think you can’t, you’re right.

"How will I feel after the session?"

After a session, you will return back to feeling normal. I give you the appropriate time to readjust to your surroundings. After coming back to the conscious mind, we will do a quick post-talk before sending you off. Most feel refreshed, happy and excited after a session.

Past Life Regression FAQS:

"Can recalling memories or the death experience be painful?"

We set the intention before moving into the death scene to not feel any physical sensations at all and to view things from an outside perspective, to detach from any pain or emotions and watch the death scene like from a scene out of a movie. We move through the death scene quickly to review the life and lessons.

"Will I recall animal lifetimes?"

It’s (very) unlikely. It’s possible if you have a strong connection to the animal world or feel a strong sense of an animal incarnation.

"I Have Enough Problems With This Life, Without Adding Past Lives..."

Your problems from this life may have past life causes, so they could have solutions in past lives. You would reduce, not increase your problems with regression.
