Hypnosis & PLR

What hypnosis is


The method that I bring clients back to see their past lives is via hypnosis. I noticed that many people have a misconception of what hypnosis is or they don’t have any idea about it at all. Some think it is similar to what they see on TV, i.e. dangling a pendulum in front of a person or making people doing silly things that the hypnotist says. Others think that the person who is hypnotised is unconscious. 

Actually, hypnosis is a deeply relaxed state where your mind can help you to focus extremely well. It is a very natural state that most of us are in during a large part of the day. We go into hypnotic states many times during the day and not realize that it’s hypnosis. For example: 
- Have you ever caught yourself daydreaming or staring off into space? 
- Have you ever been absorbed so deeply in reading a book or watching television that you did not notice someone speaking to you? 
- Have you ever been so engrossed with your work and lost track of time or unaware of what is going on around you? 
- Have you ever driven down the highway so absorbed in your thoughts that you forgot to exit where you wanted to? This is called “highway hypnosis”. 

Watching TV is the most common form of hypnosis. Marketing companies are fully aware of this and maximise TV commercials for advertising and marketing purposes. When we listen to a charismatic speaker too, we too, are in hypnosis. This is when we set aside our conscious mind proper (Beta brain wave) and establish direct communication with our subconscious mind (Alpha brain wave). 



Characteristics of Hypnosis


- You are in a very relaxed state – physically and mentally 
- Your hands and legs feel heavy 
- Your concentration is focused 
- The body is (usually) immobile 
- Rapid eye movements may occur 



Past Life Regression via Hypnosis


- You are not asleep / unconscious. You don’t lose control. 
- It is not dangerous. 
- It is not scary. Nightmares are more scary than viewing a past life. 
- You cannot become “stuck” in a past life. After the session, you will be back in the present and resume your day. 
- You can emerge from a regression whenever you want. 
- Feeling is similar to daydreaming, or "losing yourself" in a book or movie. 

During a PLR session, some people think that they are not hypnotised because they are conscious and aware of what's happening in their surroundings. They may feel as though they are in 2 places at once, i.e. in the current life and also in the past life. Nevertheless, a light hypnotic state is sufficient to access the past life memories.
