QHHT stands as the golden method that focuses on past life regression, subconscious healing and Higher Self communication all in one session. It is very different from other hypnotherapy techniques. This method is structured and honours Dolores Cannon’s original 1960s technique. Important to note, that it can only be done in-person to ensure a more safe and effective process, with less technical issue, more confidentiality and building a more trusting and friendly relationship with the client.
Even though there are many offshoots similar to QHHT, each with its own unique approach to healing and Higher consciousness, QHHT remains original for its strict adherence to Dolores Cannon's method. There are some offshoots or similar modalities, such as Beyond Quantum Healing (BQH) or Illuminated Quantum Healing (IQH), which incorporate additional healing modalities and allow for online remote sessions. QHHT is still the most popular as it focuses on client’s subconscious as the source of all healing.
As a practitioner, my goal is to create a safe, calming environment, ensuring clients feel comfortable exploring their inner world and receiving empowering answers without judgment. Being neutral and non-biased is essential; my role is to actively listen, ask open-ended questions and allow clients to receive answers, understand root cause of emotional and physical issue and facilitate healing. When access to subconscious is unavailable, we do the white light energy healing visualisation instead.
With preparation, the process is straightforward. I have a beautiful sunshine space in Bondi Junction that is calming and relaxing. We usually do a phone call to talk about any concerns the client has and once they book, they receive an email confirmation. It is important that they dress comfortably, eat light meals and avoid caffeine or energy drinks to ensure they can enter the trance state.
Additionally, they will prepare 25+ questions they want to ask their Higher Self or Subconscious mind, this could be about love, family, career, finance, health, personal development or otherwise.
On the session day, we spend 1 to 2 hours discussing life situations and challenges, focusing on understanding the client’s main reason for seeking QHHT. I explain to them how hypnosis works, where their brainwaves slow down as we enter the trance states, theta waves (4 to 8 Hz) to delta waves (0.5 to 4 Hz), similar to when you are daydreaming or meditating. Simply put, the somnambulistic state is when the client fully immerses and experience into the character of the lifetime they are experiencing.
After some easy breathwork, clients lie down and we begin visualisation to activate the subconscious mind and quiet down the logical analytical mind. This leads to the past life regression, where clients describe their experiences- see, hear, smell and feel in the scene; and receive answers about life purposes, lessons and soul connections or soul contracts in that lifetime.
The session then shifts to connecting with the Higher Self, who answers the client’s prepared questions, followed by physical and emotional healing. The entire process takes 4 to 6 hours. After awakening client, back to the present, we debrief key insights, sometimes revealing surprising imagery or answers. Sessions are recorded on mp3 file for clients to revisit messages and more healing. I usually do a follow-up within two or three weeks to provide additional support or recommendations. If there are more underlying issues or traumas linked to present challenges. When additional support is needed after QHHT, I may follow up to assess progress.
I believe that having proper training is essential, you need to know how to properly guide clients through each process. You must learn how to manage unexpected situations, such as sudden physical pain during past life regression or emotional breakdown revisiting childhood trauma during the Higher Self experience. You may also encounter clients who resist going into trance. You need to have the knowledge and know the right words to guide them safely and comfortably. You must be observant to know if they are in trance, looking for physical signs like rapid eye movement, fluttering eyelids, head dropping, paler or rosy cheeks, rise in temperature, slower heart rate, muscular relaxation and know exactly what to do if they fall asleep, as trance can be very relaxing.
The biggest difference between QHHT and traditional hypnotherapy is that QHHT is a past life exploration, delving deep into the inner world and accessing the Subconscious or Higher Self for information and healing. Clinical hypnotherapy is behavioural focused, uses solution based techniques like suggestions, visual metaphors and anchors to address behavioural issues, such as quitting smoking, weight loss and stress release, while QHHT is about receiving answers and healing by accessing hidden subconscious memories. Here, the subconscious includes all life experiences, recorded and stored and it is sometimes referred to as the Superconscious. It also includes all thoughts, memories, feelings, desires, instincts and automatic behaviours that influence our thoughts and actions that are outside of our conscious awareness.
Most QHHT sessions consist of typical past life regression stories. However, there are unique cases where clients recall distinct Starseed lives on other planets, realms and galaxies. These clients are just ordinary people with regular jobs. What is surprising is that I have clients from all walks of life and professions coming to do this—from police officers and real estate agents to artists, academics, writers, teachers and mothers—all curious about what is hidden in their multidimensional lives their souls have experienced.
Moreover, the mind does not know the difference between something imagined and real, so who is to say that the lives and emotions they experienced in the regression are not true? It is their personal truth and one that resonates with them the most.
Many clients have asked, what is the Higher Self? Dolores Cannon has described that the soul or the Higher Self is like a beautiful diamond with thousands of facets, each representing a different lifetime and aspect of our multidimensional being, shaped by our choices, lessons, hardships, emotions and relationships.
Less often discussed are the benefits of QHHT: clients feel more confident and certain about their choices, decisions and life paths after the session. They usually experience a significant emotional release and during the final healing stage, clients report feeling energy surges in their bodies, hiccupping, jerking or tingling or electric sensations. I have few interesting QHHT cases, that stayed with me deeply. Names have been changed for privacy purposes.
Story 1: Chloe carried deep anger issues for years, her nervous system is constantly in the fight mode, her amygdala was sensitive to external triggers. She has uncontrollable urges to hurt people verbally and physically when thing doesn’t go her way. When we progressed to the Higher Self healing, the Subconscious had said in her early childhood she didn’t have structure and safety, she needed control. She punished people when there is unmet
expectation. She realised that holding onto anger was her way of protecting herself from being hurt and disappointed again. The healing was accompanied by big tears of forgiveness and emotional release in the heart and tummy area, the subconscious asks her to be in the flow of things, even when things don’t go her away. The realisation that, to allow acceptance and freedom for herself, will allow freedom for other people around her. Few months later, her anger is fully resolved and hasn’t come back, her relationships with her family improved greatly and she is living to the natural flow of life.
Story 2: Sana suffered 10 years of hearing loss, came to me with the goal to get her hearing back. Her hearing has worsened with each hearing evaluation. During the Higher Self healing, we got to the root cause of the emotional pain she was holding onto. Her subconscious mind did not want to hear the chaos, conflict and abuse she received from her partner and family. Her ears decided to shut down energetically and physically, there were many lessons there for her to learn in reflection to the young woman who experienced all this. She came back happily this year August and showed me her charts that her hearing evaluation has improved and she could only contribute the success to QHHT and energy healing she received with me.
In my experience, clients who meditate or are naturally calm, can more easily enter a deep trance, while people who are analytical and with strong expectations may experience mental blocks and resistance. My advice is to relax, let go and respond and simply describe to the first image or thoughts that arise during the process.
It’s crucial to find a QHHT practitioner who feels safe and trustworthy. I recommend a pre-session phone call to discuss any concerns. Practitioners vary in personality, experience and approach, so it’s important to choose someone who aligns with your goals, whether focused on healing, past life exploration or current issues.
You can choose the right one based on location, availability, pricing, communication, attitude, experience and professionalism. It is important that the practitioner and client have the same goals for the session, the practitioner should know which areas need more attention. Practitioners must understand the client’s purpose, expectations and goals for the session to ensure clients receive what they are expecting. Additionally, certification matters because it provides insight into their credentials, experience, practitioner level and pricing.
From the perspective of an energy healer, there are many reasons why mental or physical illness happen in the body. It may be epigenetic, generational wounds, soul contract, past life trauma or unresolved current life issue, external event or unexpected accidents. As a body mind practitioner, I believe all disease begins in frequency (thoughts, experience, emotion, stress, trauma, accidents etc) before it manifests into the physical body.
Importantly, all healing must begin in the energy field as well. When an energy system that is stuck, impassive or not operating well, it can be healed through clearing, releasing and moving the energy. Simply put, the denial of the emotions can create disease. If you suppress your emotions like fear, judgement, self-criticism, worries, stress, if you deny them, you can create disease. Usually, the energy is stuck, stagnant and blocked in the
‘weak areas’ of the body and there is a message or lesson that the body wants to tell you. We need to understand the lesson and the message of the ailment first before we can release and bring the body and mind back into alignment. It’s also important to note that lifestyle, balanced diet, regular physical exercise, emotional support and mindfulness is key factor to healing and recovery also.
Additionally, Integrating QHHT with post-session modalities like energy healing or traditional counselling can amplify the healing process. In my practice, I often incorporate Mari-el energy healing techniques in the continued session after the QHHT session, helping clients release stagnant energy and further facilitate healing and transformation. This will support and promotes long lasting change in the client’s lives.
The best part about QHHT is when I receive client’s update about the positive changes, weeks or even months after their QHHT sessions, including improved mental clarity, reduced anxiety and greater self-awareness. They often feel more in tune with their inner voice or intuition and they feel better prepared to navigate life's challenges. Many people experience a newfound sense of life purpose and direction, allowing them to align with their authentic selves and take action with greater confidence.
In conclusion, QHHT is a profound journey of self-discovery and healing that transcends traditional therapy. Clients often report remarkable insights, emotional release and spiritual awakening as they connect with their past lives and Higher Self. Each session is unique, and we uncover the truth of their soul's journey and receive answers about their past and current life. As a practitioner, with more than a hundred sessions done, I will continue to provide a safe space for clients to explore their inner worlds and I hope to connect with more people who are open-minded to QHHT in Sydney.
