Higher consciousness is a heightened awareness and an understanding of who you truly are, how everyone and everything is connected, and the genuine meaning of existence. Higher consciousness surpasses any limitations of perceived boundaries and divisions between yourself and others, as well as, any superficial shortcomings you feel are holding back your progression and growth.

​As your consciousness rises, your mind expands to the undefinable, limitless nature of your being and life itself. While it is not a simple undertaking, we can all achieve the shifts of consciousness that lead to transcendence. You might ask, "If everyone is capable, why has everyone not achieved ascension?" If you visualize the path to higher consciousness as a physical process of rising, negative emotions, due to past hurts, childhood traumas, old resentments and even cellular memories of past lives, serve as anchors that weigh us down and hold us back. However, ascension implies a physical rising, but it's a state of being.

The truth is, most people cannot fully awaken because their minds are preoccupied with the mutterings of the ego-self. Namely, concerns of avoiding emotional and physical pain, protecting the ego's perception of self, and meeting basic needs. The ego-self always finds a reason to compete with every other being, seeing resources of all types as limited. It generates a low-vibrational state where the individual views themselves as alone, vulnerable and defensive. When we can't release heartache from our past or past lives, a sense of separateness and vulnerability is compounded by a negative view of reality. Awakening is when we are aware of these negative thoughts and emotions tied to the past. Being fully awakened is when we finally are able to relinquish those parts of ourselves that are holding us back from moving forward in our lives.

All this low-vibrational energy creates energy blockages. These blockages may arise in the home of safety and security, the root chakra, the home of unity, self-love, and ascension, the heart chakra, the home of higher consciousness, the crown chakra, or any other energy center. No matter where the energy blockages arise, they separate us from the universal energy field and the united subconscious. The truth is, we are all connected and meant to live in such a way that honors that interconnectedness. When we feel separate, it is another anchor, weighing us down and holding us back from the climb towards the ascension way of being.

How do you achieve higher consciousness despite the negative emotions you may struggle to release? The mind is often filled with the frantic, apprehensive voice of the ego-self. "The monkey mind," as some people refer to it, needs to be acknowledged and mastered. Through mindfulness and meditation, you can learn to quiet the monkey-mind to make room for high-vibrational thoughts and keep yourself grounded in the present.  However, there is more you can do to change how you have been negatively conditioned to see the world. 

One of the first steps is to foster a sense of grounding and presence. Only then can you truly monitor your thoughts, perceptions, feelings, desires, and behaviors. It is turning inward in observation of your inner experience.  Furthermore, try to view your traumas, hurts, and heartaches of this life or the last, not as weapons but as lessons. Trust that your higher consciousness is present and prepared to help use these events for your greater good.

 Non-attachment is an essential practice to heal your ability to reach an ascended way of being. Do not allow yourself to remain or become attached to anything that will wear you down or break you down, in the moment or over time. A valuable way to begin practicing nonattachment is through non-reactivity. Do not react or attach yourself to anything people say about you. This applies to criticism, reprimand, praise, or justification, any of these will only serve to rouse the ego-self and increase its mindless chatter. Which leads to the next exercise towards achieving higher consciousness, to stop appeasing the ego's need to be defined; this only fosters competition and more separation from the universal unconscious. Finally, do not avoid the emotional triggers or pain you may fear, face them head-on. Only through acknowledgment and acceptance can you transcend your hurt and achieve higher consciousness and awakening.

One of the beautiful things about the rise towards higher consciousness is it is both the tool to help you overcome low-vibrational thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and the goal in overcoming the same. To achieve ascension is not becoming a new person but becoming who you are meant to be upon healing from and channeling your heartache and hurt into constructive energy.  

As you climb towards higher consciousness, you will gain the ability to view people as hurt individuals instead of malicious ones. Instead of competing, criticizing, and growing defensive, you will see others with greater compassion, which cultivates more healing—as such, achieving higher consciousness is a self-perpetuating process. As you strive towards enlightenment, you are filled with more love, forgiveness, patience, and empathy, helping you to heal, release blockages, and lift your vibration and your consciousness higher. This results in your endless spiritual opening to new heights of unconditional love, peace, and limitless awareness of the seen and unseen realms of reality.

The first time we connect to a past or parallel life, the realm of possibility expands in a way that is refreshing, awe-inspiring, but also a bit baffling.  There is so much healing information and nuggets of wisdom, to be had, tucked away in these lives!  We may ask, "why didn't I know about this sooner?"  It seems a bit unfair, doesn't it?

Think of past and parallel lives as textbooks.  We are free to study the books at length before but are often not allowed to have access to them once the exam begins.  The exam is our life's journey.  Like an open book exam, we can sometimes access the information, but not if it inhibits or undermines our ability to truly learn and to grow that expands our spiritual awakening.

Considering how many past and parallel lives we have lived, it is only realistic to assume there has been heartache, psychic pain, and trauma that our soul has endured;  Which begs the question, how enthusiastic would we be about the life ahead if our last life was one of grief, loss, and ended in a tragic death?  We would likely come into this lifetime with a grim outlook and a fear of living another one altogether.  Trauma is a big reason why we don't remember the last life as soon as we arrive onto this one.  Trauma can inhibit our will to live, limit our drive to explore, and even quell our hopes for the future.

The first time we watch a new movie, we are eager for the experience with all ears and eyes!  We are vigilant to not miss any twists and turns as the movie unfolds.   When we watch our favorite movie for the umpteenth time, we are more relaxed, we may explain the film to a first-time watcher, we may glance at our phone.  If we know, with certainty, that we have lived many lives before and many lives after, would we have the same zest for it?  I don't think so.  Some people may become complacent and take this life for granted.  The certainty that we have many lives to choose can make us vulnerable to a futile mindset and a lack of appreciation for the life we are currently living.

If we remember our past or parallel lives, we may also remember charting this life.  The risk of remembering charting this life is it may seriously undermine our free-will.  Free-will is a Divine gift, but we have flexed this muscle before.  When we mapped the life we are living now, we selected several choice-points, where we would opt to take a specific path.  Awareness that some decisions have already been made and knowing what to expect may damage our sense of free-will and personal power.  this can lead to a lack of excitement and a perceived lack of control over our destiny.

If we have lived so many past or parallel lives, why don't we remember?  The truth is we can and do remember, but only when the time is right, where appropriate for our soul evolution.  You see, remembering these alternative lives can be a blessing or a curse depending on how we remember and when.  A past life regression,
during a QHHT session, is when these memories serve our healing and help us navigate life changes.  When the memories heal, uplift, or guide us is when these memories should be celebrated as a gift and a real blessing from our Higher-Self.

Projection is the subconscious act of transferring your own unwanted traits, emotions, and behaviors on to someone else.  Projective identification, sometimes referred to as projection as well, is the subconscious act of taking feelings from one interpersonal, connection, situation, or relationship and place it on to an unrelated one.  Finally, externalization is when we blame others for our circumstances and problems, falsely assuming a victim mentality.

It can all seem a little confusing to someone who isn't familiar with these terms, so here are a few examples.  An example of projection is feeling bad about not giving your all at work.  Subconsciously you feel guilty that you've been disinterested and unfocused at work.  Instead of assuming responsibility for not giving your all, you lash out at a blameless co-worker for being lazy and inconsiderate for not doing their fair share.  You took your negative feelings and placed them on your co-worker.

An example of projective identification is having left a relationship where you were undervalued and felt unheard, and you go to a skilled therapist and counselor.  You get frustrated with the therapist because they never hear you and often treat you with a lack of respect, unconsciously painting them with the same brush as your ex.

An example of externalization would be poor money management and thoughtless spending having you in a financial crunch.  Instead of assuming responsibility for your carelessness, you blame your innocent partner for always suggesting expensive activities.

Now that you know what these terms are, you may ask why we do them.  They are coping mechanisms to help us deal with uncomfortable and unwelcome emotional and mental experiences.   The above are examples of maladaptive coping.  There are different reasons why we engage in these particular maladaptive coping techniques.  They can be a means to avoid shame and damage to the ego-self.  Some people are trying to prevent fearful or unpredictable outcomes.  For others, it is merely a consequence of trying to block these unwanted thoughts, feelings, or behaviors out of their mind.  By deciding not to think about them, our quirky brains focus on them even more.  We have all engaged in this type of coping at some point in our lives, they are unconscious mechanisms after all, but a chronic or contentious tendency towards projection and blame can be very damaging to others, our relationships, and our spiritual path.

As I'm sure you can imagine, when someone is projected upon or blamed when they are not guilty of the perceived offense, it can damage their self-esteem and self-worth, if they choose to take it on.  Over time, when someone is met with a constant barrage of projection, it can build a toxic shame within them.  This toxicity can spill over into all areas of life.  This is why it is essential to consider and shape our interactions, our reactions with empathy and compassion.

The truth is, the avoidance of negative thoughts, feelings, and behaviors thwart our own healing and spiritual growth.  We cannot walk in the light if we don't first acknowledge and accept the dark or shadow components of our past and who we are.  If we project that which is undesirable in us onto others, we never get the chance to open it to the light and to correct ourselves.  By projecting and blaming, we damage our sense of empowerment, our strength, and our self-worth.  We assume the role of victim and, by doing so, we cease striving to surmount our challenges and our traumas so that we can move forward in our lives in a healthy way.

Finally, the path to enlightenment is one of love, love of the self and love of others.  When we project and blame, it is a victimization and a rejection of who we really are, there is no room for self-love in this chronic pattern of denying our truth.  Also, as mentioned, by casting unwarranted guilt on others, we can do damage to their spirit, which wrongfully impacts their path and their ability to fulfill their purpose, love cannot be sustained in this circumstance, either.

Psychological projection, projective identity, and blame all stem from judgments.  Judgements of ourselves that are manifested as judgments projected onto others.  The first step in breaking the toxic pattern of maladaptive projective coping is to release judgment.  The ego-self is sustained by judgments, when you can observe your thoughts, your feelings, and your behaviors with awareness, and without judgment, you are on the path to negative ego-death and enlightenment.

It is exciting to see a trend in my QHHT practice that many of my clients are beginning to recognize, and to take responsibility for,  their own role when they are projecting their own wounds into situations and relationships. As the article states, we all do this from time-to-time, but when it becomes a habit of deflecting the underlying issues, projection can take a very dysfunctional turn.

This trend is showing me that the collective is allowing these underlying wounds to float up to the surface so that we can finally have the opportunity to deal with these shadow parts of ourselves in order to finally make the changes needed and put them to rest.

Have you been feeling it? Most of us who work in the light are usually subject to the projections and negative energies stemming from the wounds of others. It's happening all over the world as our shadow-selves float up to the top to be acknowledged, expressed, taken personal responsibility for and dealt with appropriately. 

This morning, I felt the need to write this to you as a quick remedy for how to clear and protect yourselves from taking on the negative, blaming, projecting energies of others that seem to come out of nowhere as you are minding your own business.

With that said, I'd like to share with you a clearing/cleansing remedy that I use often so as not to take on the unhealed versions of people around me. Many of you have your own little rituals that I'm sure work great. This is for those looking for a way to mitigate, clear, and cleanse their own environment of negativity.  Here goes:

Ingredients:
1 Sage or Palo Santo Smudge Stick
Kosher Salt
Silver Bell
Feather
White Vinegar

Ritual:

Start by opening all windows and doors in your home to allow fresh air in, and to get the stale air out. Now, wash down your walls with  a mixture of white vinegar and spring water. When you are finished, light sage or Palo Santo smudge sticks and, using the feather, waft the incense smoke throughout your home; moving in a clockwise motion through your residence. 

Use the bell to do the same, ringing it while you move throughout your home. All the while, visualizing your actions ridding your home of negative and/or parasitic energies. Finally, sprinkle the salt around your home and then sweep it and the last of the negativity out of your home. 

You also should smudge yourself with the Sage or Palo Santo while visualizing yourself being rid of all negative energy.

Then, take the Kosher Salt and pour a small thin line at the outside entrance of your door, all the while visualizing a barrier to all that is not of the highest good for you and your family to enter.

If you are prayerful, go ahead and cite your favorite protection prayers.

It wouldn't hurt for you to do a spiritual cleansing bath at least weekly, too, to ward off any depression or heaviness from the projections of the collective.  You can find this on my blog, which I will add a link at the bottom of this page.

I hope you find this helpful. Blame is the really big game right now so take nothing personally, it's what the dark wants you to do.

In love and truth,

The Quantum Healing Hypnosis Technique can be implemented to help heal the spirit, mind, and body. The practice of QHHT® merges hypnosis, past life regression, and the higher self to connect the participant to higher consciousness. Access to higher consciousness is achieved at the deepest level of hypnosis possible. Once the participant is in a hypnotic trance, the practitioner guides them to the root source of dis-ease, illness, and healing wisdom. The healing messages are sent from the higher self but can reference past, present, or even parallel lives.

Many people have reported a powerful quantum shift in just one session, leading to greater happiness, health, and holistic wellbeing. Sounds miraculous, and in many ways, it is, however, the question seems to arise time and again, “is QHHT safe?”
 
 This level of consciousness is achieved at least twice a day, upon waking and before falling asleep. Though, for some, this level of trance is achieved several times a day, when someone is engrossed in a book, movie, video game, or even during computer tasks at work. It is a phase that feels like derealization, you can hear everything that is going on around you, but it has a vague surreal quality, like a vivid daydream. You are aware and in control in this state. Yet, the typical distraction and limitations of the fully conscious mind are removed, enabling the subconscious to be accessed and healed.

So QHHT can be as safe as daydreaming, falling asleep, or getting lost in a good movie.
 
 As with all your daily activities, the higher self will watch over as you and your trusted practitioner to explore your higher consciousness. Your subconscious will never present something that you are ill-prepared for, unable to cope with, or will not benefit you. It is safe to say that when practiced as intended, the biggest risk QHHT therapy poses is a nap, which isn’t that bad at all!

 The Quantum Healing Hypnosis Technique was meant to be practiced one on one, practitioner and client. Dolores Cannon, the founder of QHHT®, believed that the profound transformative nature of the practice is compromised when experienced from behind a screen.

Technology is not infallible. Whether it is a weak internet connection or an untimely update, there are variables that a practitioner cannot control while their client is in this vulnerable hypnotic state. You are conscious, yet some people may encounter, drowsiness, dizziness, headache or disorientation when under hypnosis or upon being roused. Being roused from your trance is a vital issue; if any problems arise, you will be glad to have a skilled QHHT® practitioner who is present, not behind a screen.
 
 Level 3 practitioners are the highest-ranking of expertise, having undergone  intensive one on one instruction, and multiple reviews and assessments. An actual, level 3 Quantum Healing Hypnosis Technique practitioner is guaranteed to administer the technique in its purest form, as the founder, Dolores Cannon, intended it to be. This technique has been tried and tested, with miraculous results for over 20 years. An authentic level 3 practitioner does not deviate at all from the established method, keeping the safety and benefit of the client a priority.
 
 Be forewarned. There are former QHHT practitioners that use the title of certified practitioner misleadingly. These practitioners practice hypnosis and past life regression, using QHHT techniques, but also include other modalities and may allow remote sessions. As such, these modalities have no assurance of safety or efficacy and are not endorsed by QHHT® Official. As with any healing modality, safety can only be ensured when working with trained, experienced practitioners who follow established protocols and utilize proven techniques.
 
So, is the Quantum Healing Hypnosis Technique safe? With an authentic level 3 practitioner, it is as safe as taking an afternoon nap, though much more beneficial! If you choose a practitioner level 1 or level 2, just be sure to ask them if they practice solely in the way Dolores Cannon intended, if you are interested in an authentic QHHT session.  

Beyond safety, when you find the right practitioner that you feel a good connection with, you will have a profound and meaningful healing experience, empowered by your mutual intention and energy towards your healing, and highest benefit. Performed in a safe and intimate space, watched over and imbued with the presence of the loving energy of your higher self and guided by a wise and compassionate practitioner, you cannot go wrong.

Sometimes we meet someone, and there is an instant and intense magnetism.  Occasionally, this magnetism is more than just attraction and immediate rapport.  This may have happened to you already, or you could be in the throws of attraction right now.  These connections can become relationships that begin with sheer bliss, love bombing, and a wonderful sense of innocence but then they sometimes end in shattering heartbreak.  If you have experienced heartache such as this, you may be surprised to know it turned out exactly how you planned it!

This instantaneous, powerful pull we feel toward someone may mean we are experiencing a karmic connection. This is also known as a soul contract or agreement.  It is a commitment we made on the Other Side to teach/help one another achieve a certain level of enlightenment and spiritual awakening.  Whether or not each person chooses to go within and take the lesson for what it is is up to each relationship participant.

There are specific telltale signs that help identify a karmic connection.  The first was already discussed as an intense, undeniable draw toward a person at first sight.  This immense allure is followed by a honeymoon period of happiness, delight and attachment.  Afterward, the intensity of emotion and connection to that person will remain, but, more often than not, the passion's fire may become too hot to handle.  These relationships are recognized by how challenging, frustrating, and rocky they can be.  The highs are high, and the lows are the pits!

If we are observant and aware, throughout these highs and lows, we will notice the same issues will keep presenting themselves, perhaps under a different cover or in a different relationship, but the insult usually adds to the same injury again and again.
Whether we need to learn self-love, self-worth, humility, empowerment, or to release what no longer serves us, we will keep being pulled through the relationship tests and patterns until we have learned the original lesson we are meant to learn about ourselves.

Another telltale sign of a karmic connection are all the mixed emotions and angst we feel while in relationship to another.  "I love them; I can't stand them,"  "I'm done; I can't walk away."  Karmic connections are full of interpersonal and intra-personal conflict as well as compatibility.  That is because our spirit doesn't feel right walking away (the pull) before the lesson is learned, but it is quite painful to have to keep reliving the same hurts, which can be quite confusing especially if there is a level of compatibility.  Until the karmic contract is fulfilled, and the lessons are learned, we will always feel like we have unfinished business that will weigh on us until our spirit deems it's finished.

According to the Vedic philosophies, there are seven relationship types.  Each relationship type corresponds to one of the seven primary chakras.  Relationships relating to the lower chakras, the root, the sacral, and the solar plexus are full of challenges and result in more unhappiness than the higher chakras.  As such, karmic connections often arise when one needs to heal the lower chakras.

The root chakra represents our sense of security, stability, and provision.  Root chakra relationships are wrought with issues of the unhealthy ego, jealousy, insecurity, and survival.  The emotional instability within one or both partners leads to intense highs and lows in the relationship bringing up selfishness, and emotional barriers. Karmic connections that are intended to heal the root chakra are meant to teach us inner balance, the ability to provide for the self, and the need to develop a secure sense of belonging within...regardless if the relationship is meant to be healed or not.

The sacral chakra is our pleasure center.  It is the home to our creativity, our passion, our emotions, and our desire for creature comforts.  Karmic sacral chakra relationships are laden with issues surrounding selfishness, greed, self-preservation and worry.  The self-serving nature of one or both partners leads to alienation, self-centeredness, obsessiveness, compulsion and a lack of passion and balance. These karmic connections that are designed to heal the sacral chakra are meant to foster emotional maturity, empathy, patience, and an appreciation for life's pleasures.

The solar plexus chakra is what feeds our self-worth and our self-confidence.  Solar plexus connections are generally the happiest of the lower chakra relationships, though these connections are not without trials.  These karmic connections are affected by issues surrounding shallowness, false appearances, lack of authenticity and the desire for admiration.  The lack of humility and a compulsive need to keep up appearances (even when the relationship has outlasted itself) can lead to a tendency toward "one-upmanship" and an absence of partnership equality.  Ultimately, resentment and anger can develop if there is a perception of being held back or outshined.  Karmic connections designed to heal the solar plexus chakra are meant to foster a stable sense of self-worth, personal integrity, motivation for higher purposes, and responsibility for one's own fate.

A cosmic spiritual love and a deeply spiritual purpose of enlightenment is what brings karmic partners together.  In my own past life regressions, I was able to experience and witness a life-between-life where a very intense karmic connection and I were planning this current life to be intensely drawn together for the shared purpose to incite triggers and provide opportunity to heal ourselves, within, after the relationship was sabotaged.  The challenges that presented themselves in the relationship caused me to learn very painful lessons that I chose to acknowledge and to transcend.  Though the physical loss of the eternal spiritual partner can be devastating in this lifetime, it does not mean karmic relationships should last.  In the end, the polarities of energies will reveal themselves, and just as the two were magnetized to one another, they can also be repelled. It is rare, in one lifetime, for these partners to return and fully integrate into a physical spiritual partnership, unless both find themselves on the same page of enlightenment, learned through their individual experiences,  at a later time.  

I often go back to the memory my regression provided, with my spiritual attachment, at our time of planning. I remember his presence and our cosmic conversation while we were in the ethereal realm,  and I feel such a satisfying love that his soul provided me to feel within myself. There is no greater sacrifice of the self and for the other, to incite such transformative pain. And, after the pain is transcended, when the uncovering of that spiritual truth of love is felt once again, there's nothing greater or more satisfying when you know you've passed the test.  The test leading to experience oneself as fully whole and balanced without the same triggers that the partner once incited. There is no greater love, between souls, such as this.

The danger of the karmic connection is to cling to the familiarity, the intensity, and at times, the codependency. As heartbreaking as it can be, know when it is time to walk away.  It's important to do so in peace, knowing you and your karmic connection share such a profound sacred love that you decided it was a journey worth traveling and a loss worth enduring for the sake of mutual enlightenment.

In love and truth,

Reincarnation is akin to a new semester after a well-deserved vacation in the spirit world.  A soul's journey does not end with death.  Death is just a stop-over...a vacation for reflection and letting go of the dense physical body rooted in 3D reality.  It is a respite for the soul after a life-long struggle against the storms of life which have a drastic effect upon the physical, mental, and emotional health of a person.  When the body is no longer needed, the soul discards the physical vessel, and moves on to the astral planes of existence where it refreshes itself and prepares for the next "semester" in a new form, with renewed innocence and vigor.

In order to gain mastery over life and to live at oneness with all creation with unconditional love, the soul usually chooses to go through the challenges of the endless cycle of birth and death for the purpose of growth and creation.

The karmic lessons of hardships are the repercussions of our choices which we need to balance and progress spiritually.  Every experience, good or bad, pleasant or traumatic, contributes toward the empowerment of the soul.

Below are some (but not all) of the signs which highlight the experiential truths of reincarnation:

• Prodigies:  These wonder children come into this lifetime with special gifts rendering them natural mathematicians, artists, musicians, scientists, debaters, etc.  They have had training and have been learning for several centuries, on the Earth plane, on other planets, in other dimensions, as well as  in between lifetimes, before they reached a certain level of perfection in their field of learning.  At the time of reincarnation, these beings are born with an intact cellular memory of their skills, which enables them to exhibit their talent at a very early age. While the world looks upon their talent as an extraordinary feat, in reality the soul has gone through several lifetimes of drudgery, pain, failures, disappointments, intense hard work, struggles, and practice before reaching this state of perfection.
• Recurring dreams of a person:  Sometimes a loved one, from a past or parallel life, may try to impress upon you of his/her loving presence through our dreams.  We may feel a strong connection with the person even though we have never met them in this lifetime.  The feeling of love and peace remains vibrant when we wake up, and remains with us throughout the day.
• Instinctive likes and dislikes towards others:  This is a very common phenomenon.  On meeting a stranger for the first time in this lifetime, we may instinctively feel a sort of repulsion towards him or her without any logical reason.  Similarly, with certain people we feel an instant connection of love and friendship. This is also true between family members when we share a special bond with a sibling or a parent, or we may have a strong aversion toward a particular member of our family.
• Mental and moral tendencies:  Another striking example of proof is the stark contrast of personality and character from the rest of the family.  A child with wild, criminal tendencies is born in a loving family of respectable, law-abiding citizens; likewise one could have a beautiful, noble soul born in an uncouth, sordid familial environment.
• Phobias:  The traumatic past experiences which are not resolved, remain in the consciousness of the person and continue to trigger the trauma, as panic attacks in the subsequent lifetimes until they are resolved in this lifetime (where appropriate).  Some of these are: fear of enclosed spaces like elevators or closets, fear of water, fear of the dark, fear of crowded places, fear of heights, and so on.  These fears are usually unreasonable since they have no connection to the present lifetime.
• Chronic aches and pains:  These discomforts have their roots in the subconscious.  Chronic ailments can be the residue of the past-life traumas which were not released before one leaves the earth plane.  These are often healed through the holistic healing modalities which deal with the subtle bodies of a person.

Reincarnation is a thoroughfare to reaching great spiritual heights.  When one participates in a QHHT session, we explore many of these signs and symptoms of  reincarnation and their karmic effects on the current lifetime.  If and when the Higher-self deems it in the participant's highest good to clear negative symptoms it is completely within the realm of possibility for one to do so and to move forward living a happier and more productive life, with new understanding.

Entering the realm of higher consciousness is  spoken about with positive intentions, however, the spiritual journey of expanding consciousness can be gritty and painful as we are bombarded with truth about the way we have been living under a type of spell or dream in an unconscious way.  

Of course, we are not aware we've been living in a dream world until we experience a series of catalysts that wake us up. Some of us wake up like a bandaid ripped off, exposing our wounds, while we are left to deal with the aftermath of pain, disappointments, guilt, remorse, fear, and even depression. It is where the dark night of the soul can enter, encountered with our darker side, where exposure of traumas and fears are commonly felt.

Some of us wake up over a period of time and its subtleties are barely perceptible when one day, we are compelled to look back at our life progress and see, really see, how we have evolved from where we began to where we are now in our souls evolution. 

Suffice it to say that waking up is a journey to a new reality that's based in truth we've never perceived before. And, when that time comes, those who are near and dear to us may or may not be on that same path as this new reality we suddenly find ourselves living.

To be supported and encouraged by those we love and trust would be a wonderful aid in the process of waking up, yet you may find yourself feeling alone and isolated. At this crucial time in one's spiritual evolution, one may feel judged and mocked by those once thought would champion you.  In fact, this is very common.  Yet, this sense of isolation can be a side-effect and a further catalyst for awakening.  However, all is not lost.  Interpersonal relationships can still be navigated during awakening, once we come to understand and accept certain principles.

One principle is you will lose people.  People come into our lives for a variety of reasons. Even close friends may decide your notions, your belief systems and your new paradigms to be too "far fetched" for them.  They may even determine that you aren't the person they have come to know.  Or, as you ascertain new truths that change your vibrational frequency, you may decide that they no longer resonate with you and, sadly, may have to let them go.  

Once you accept that everyone is responsible for their own spiritual journey, even if they do not understand you or they haven't figured out they are on one yet, you will be more at peace when others walk away, eventually.

Another perspective you may want to consider is that you aren't here to change anyone's mind.  When we try to do this, it becomes a waste of energy, especially when others are not ready to hear you out.  Some people that seemed so reasonable before you began awakening, suddenly judge you or dig in their heels when you try to express yourself while their paradigms are challenged.  There will be people who will be dismissive and disagreeable no matter what you have to say. And, you know what? That is OK!

My suggestion is not to argue with people who are committed to disagreeing with you or who are committed to misunderstanding you. Because they will. Believe me. In no longer attempting to sway others to your new way of thinking is not spiritual bypassing; this is acknowledging that it is not your duty to change a closed mind.  There will be people who will be open to have these discussions with you, to open to hearing what you have to say, all the while checking into their own triggers. And if there is not, then it's not time...even more reason to go within, to journal, to meditate, to explore your new reality on certain matters, and to connect to your newly-found higher consciousness.

An important distinction to make is your spiritual itinerary is your own. It does not need to align with anyone else's until you have integrated your newly found self and have become more confident in who you have become.  As you expand your consciousness, coming to new realizations and connecting the figurative dots like never before, you will want to share the invigorating and revitalization energy with those close to you!  But, I would not recommend it unsolicited.  Not everyone has the same timetable of spiritual awakening.  You could present frightening ideas, that challenge another's reality and their ego.  This doesn't make these people unevolved or "lesser-than," it simply isn't their time. And, it may never be their time.  I always try to err on the side of being respectful of that.

What's important to remember is you are not alone.  Even if your friends and family don't see eye-to-eye with you, there are people and communities that you can become a part of when you are ready, there is spiritual literature you can read and mentors you can learn from.  Just be prudent and discerning of the information you ingest and the people you trust, as during a spiritual awakening process one can feel disoriented, vulnerable and unclear, therefore, one might attract those whose vibration is the same, rendering them to be untrustworthy in the long-term.  And, it must be said, that not every philosophy warrants credence.  

There are a lot of credible, loving people who may not have experienced your unique journey but have experienced the highs and lows of spiritual awakening, when they, too, felt alone.  Your journey is as unique and personal as you are, yet it is communal.  Know that many people have walked a path of awakening that have become self-realized and even more enlightened. Those are the people to seek out, of course, with an eye toward discernment.  And rest in the knowing that the collective consciousness is awakening overall.  

In love and truth,

Critical thinking is glorified from early childhood. Children are encouraged to make sense of given circumstances, based on verifiable information. 
Children are rarely asked why they feel something happens. Instead, they are asked why they think it happens, or why they think something comes to be. The children who live up to these expectations can go on to become skilled critical thinkers and logicians.

Being able to deduce and induce logically can solve a lot of problems. Most people  engage in a logical deduction at some point in their day. However, when the critical thinker favors logic to the point that they neglect intuition, very valuable forms of knowledge and true understanding are lost. The risk the overly critical thinker is presented with is to grow dull to their truth, personal experience, and instinct.

In the last few decades, there has been a new appreciation for the sacred wisdom from within. Children are being taught meditation in school and at home. They are learning to still the monkey mind and hear the whisper of their inner wisdom more clearly. It is important for children to become familiar with such practices young because what the overly critical thinker is often missing is confidence. As such, the critical thinker relies on facts. A fact is just a succinct term for a notion that is widely accepted as true. This is evident in this day and age when we find facts are not always facts due to the rampant disinformation that's churned out by most of the larger media outlets.

In a world where the collective consciousness is stirring from its slumber, facts are not as trustworthy as they once appeared to be. There is a communal spiritual awakening to the wisdom of the universe, spiritual truths, and multi-dimensionality. Finally, the shifting of realities can be perceived. Facts are becoming outdated as the potential biases of “reality” are revealed.

In a world where everything changes and old “truths” can hinder and hurt, what can be trusted? The sacred wisdom of the universe, spiritual truths, and personal truths. An individual's experience is what matters, not what others can confirm they have also experienced and is therefore deemed fact. The unresolved critical thinker must get off the fence now or risk being lost in an ocean of old truths, confusion, and antiquated "facts."

Yet, the exclusively critical thinker often finds comfort on the fence. They fear commitment to their truths and the risk of being wrong. These fears can trigger either the ego’s insecurity or arrogance. The insecure ego is apprehensive about being responsible for their truth and will want to avoid looking or feeling foolish. Whereas, the fear of being wrong can be dissonant with an arrogant ego and the notion that they don’t make mistakes, when in fact, there is no eternal version of right and wrong. The human experience is always in flux. Naturally, so is everyone’s perspective and truth.

The overly critical thinker would be wise to find courage, make a choice, and overcome their fears. If they are capable of reconnecting to their intuition, instinct, and spiritual insight, they will gain a compass of truth, integrity, and wisdom. This compass will have a true north, no matter what reality they perceive.

Embarking on a healing journey with the Quantum Healing Hypnosis Technique can lead to a powerful quantum shift that leads to healing transformation. However, QHHT may initially seem perplexing and leave a participant with profound questions. During hypnosis, a participant can unite with their higher consciousness, revisit past lives, and venture anywhere in the realm of infinite dimensions, to face the root source of their dis-ease or illness and achieve healing. Understandably, one may start to question “reality” as they have come to know it after a QHHT session. A common question tends to be, "how do I know if the past life memories, visions, and dreams that I experienced during hypnosis were real?” 

 It is expected a participant will question some aspects of the experience. However, becoming over-analytical can not only hinder the growth we can achieve from the session it can also inhibit any future benefit from QHHT sessions.

Dolores Cannon, founder of the QHHT modality, taught the higher self should be treated like a cherished friend. Ultimately, what better friend is there? When a cherished friend shares confidence, one does not fact check their admission and question their credibility. That would cause estrangement in the relationship and inhibit said friend from sharing pertinent information in the future. Until we learn to let go and trust.  The higher self and intuition are the same. To excessively question our own credibility causes the information that has been shared to lose effect and can stymie imparting wisdom in the future.

 Perhaps a more constructive question would be, “why shouldn’t this be true?” The truth is, as multidimensional beings if we can envision it, dream it, or experience it as a past life (or parallel life) experience, it falls into the realm of possibility.

A general understanding of the quantum aspect of QHHT is foundational to understanding a multidimensional existence. The quantum theory is that everything is energy and that energy can travel any distance, at any time, making all points in space and time theoretically equal. The theory of multidimensionality asserts there are multiple layers of reality or dimensions.

Much like the conscious and the subconscious mind or the parasympathetic nervous system, and it’s three sub-systems, and the automatic nervous system, their multiple dimensions run concurrently. As such, one can be in the dimension they are currently conscious of, while multitudes of other versions of self are realizing other destinies and lifetimes, in the past, present, and future. Based solely on the mathematical possibilities, there can be billions, possibly infinite, dimensions, experiences, and beings linked to a singular higher consciousness. Therefore, it is reasonable to assert there is a greater likelihood that past life experience, vision, or dream has occurred rather than it has not.

As Neale Donald Walsch said, “there is a Divine purpose behind everything, and therefore a Divine presence in everything." Perhaps, the question should shift from “are the past life memories, visions, and dreams that I experienced during hypnosis  real?” to “what is the Divine purpose in seeing the past life memories, visions, and dreams I experienced during hypnosis?”

The higher self will never present anything the participant is ill-prepared for, unable to cope with or cannot benefit from. If there is a Divine purpose and presence in everything and every experience while under hypnosis during a QHHT session is aimed at the participants' betterment and healing, should it matter if the experiences are “real” or not? Would a participant that experienced a quantum shift so powerful it cured a pervasive disease, or helped them move forward from harrowing trauma care if the past life experiences, or dreams they witnessed while under hypnosis during a QHHT session were real? Probably not!

When the parallel is drawn between a QHHT session and any another healing modality, are the same questions paramount? When an acupuncturist or a counselor fosters healing and growth in the process, does one question how they came upon their healing knowledge, beyond their academic background? Does the participant question how they came upon the symptomology to provide the practitioner to facilitate healing? Not typically, especially not if it is efficacious.

Of course, asking questions is a normal healthy part of any new experience, and an experienced QHHT practitioner will welcome any questions the participant has. Though, the participant should be sure to ask questions that make the most of the Divine plan, purpose, and healing.

The beauty of the regressive part of QHHT is that every experience can be easily connected to the current lifetime and presents understanding and answers to current maladies and problems, where the higher self deems appropriate at the time.
