  Hey everyone, it's Gina you're listening to see your sessions
• 0:05
  in today's episode. I have a recording I'm going to
• 0:07
  be sharing with you. It really is kind of a hypnotic
• 0:10
  journey one O 1. So you learn a little bit more
• 0:12
  about hypnosis, but specifically you learn about like what?
• 0:17
  Do we do? In this hypnotic state and how
• 0:20
  can you prepare to go on this hypnotic journey?
• 0:24
  I think it's normal to have a little apprehension of like what
• 0:28
  is going to happen when I go into this hypnotic journey and
• 0:32
  the first time I ever did a hypnotic journey at home alone,
• 0:35
  I was the same. I was like a little.
• 0:37
  Bit scared if you have. You know, a little apprehension.
• 0:40
  I totally get it. This episode should answer all
• 0:42
  your questions. Of course, if you have questions
• 0:44
  leftover, you can always e-mail me.
• 0:46
  My e-mail is in the show notes, takes a few days sometimes for
• 0:50
  me to get back to you, but I always read them and I always
• 0:53
  respond. There's also APDF that I'm going
• 0:56
  to link in the show notes. And that's just a short, quick
• 1:00
  version of how to prepare for a hypnotic journey just in APDF
• 1:04
  version. So hopefully this alleviates any
• 1:06
  fears or stress you have because we've got so many hypnotic
• 1:09
  journeys coming up for the rest of the year.
• 1:12
  In yesterday's podcast episode, The Anatomy of a Hypnotic
• 1:15
  Journey, the types of hypnotic journeys that I do in the
• 1:18
  different parts of each journey, and then two episodes ago,
• 1:22
  episode 214, I talked more about expanding awareness.
• 1:26
  I give you an example of that, a recent real life example of it.
• 1:29
  And I also covered the topics that we're gonna be going
• 1:32
  through. Each week is gonna have a theme,
• 1:35
  and each week within that theme there's gonna be 3 hypnotic
• 1:38
  journeys. So the previous two episodes
• 1:40
  tell you a little bit more about what's coming, a little bit more
• 1:44
  detailed to help you get just as excited as I am.
• 1:47
  And then today I have this video for you, just helping you get
• 1:50
  prepared for this hypnotic journey.
• 1:52
  Let's get into this. Video The history of hypnosis
• 1:56
  isn't is as ancient as sorcery, magic, medicine.
• 2:00
  Indeed, hypnosis has been used as a method in all three.
• 2:04
  And there's even I go I go even more into the history of
• 2:08
  hypnosis and theories behind what are we accessing in past
• 2:12
  lives in the latest past lives in the Divine podcast episode,
• 2:16
  which if you're listening to the replay, I believe that's episode
• 2:20
  167. So if you want to know more
• 2:23
  about it, but the history of hypnosis goes back even to like
• 2:27
  the druids, the ancient sleep temples, all it, it goes back so
• 2:33
  far. Another person who is in this
• 2:36
  field of regression therapy talks about how hypnosis itself,
• 2:40
  I love this. I love this definition.
• 2:43
  It's an intricate tapestry still in process, still in process of
• 2:47
  being woven with many threads of theory and practice.
• 2:50
  And we talk about this a lot actually in the hypnotic arts
• 2:53
  training or we go deeper into the history and just the
• 2:56
  theories behind it. And I really do believe that
• 2:58
  humans are evolving like our minds are evolving.
• 3:03
  And with that, I think we're going to be able to access even
• 3:06
  more information in these unseen realms with hypnosis if we want
• 3:10
  to. And yeah, so I love the idea
• 3:14
  that it's still in the process of being woven.
• 3:16
  We're still learning about hypnosis.
• 3:19
  We're still learning about the human mind.
• 3:21
  And it's kind of fun to be a part of and and get curious on
• 3:25
  what this journey is going to be like for you.
• 3:30
  OK, So how hypnosis works? So in our brains we have
• 3:35
  different brain wave States and they go from totally awake to
• 3:38
  totally asleep. And hypnosis happens right in
• 3:41
  that space before we completely fall asleep.
• 3:45
  So in that space we are completely relaxed and our
• 3:50
  senses are actually heightened. So a common question is a common
• 3:54
  question that people have is will I remember this?
• 3:57
  Will I feel out of control? And yes, you will remember and
• 4:00
  yes, you will feel in control. When we're in that super, super
• 4:05
  relaxed state, our minds are so quiet, our emotions are so quiet
• 4:10
  and our senses are heightened. And so with that, we can go and
• 4:15
  access information in our subconscious minds.
• 4:18
  So our subconscious minds are said to hold the memory of
• 4:23
  everything that's ever happened to us.
• 4:26
  And so if you're freaky enough to believe in past lives or
• 4:29
  other lifetimes or life's lives on other planets, then that
• 4:33
  would include those memories as well.
• 4:35
  So the idea is, is that we move into that hypnotic trance state
• 4:41
  and then we're able to, with our intention, set the intention to
• 4:46
  go looking for these things. And then when you have someone
• 4:49
  guiding you along the way, then they can ask those questions
• 4:52
  that try to probe you to get that information out of your
• 4:55
  subconscious mind. And of course, hypnosis, we can
• 4:59
  regress back to this life, We can regress to a different life.
• 5:03
  So the same is true. The subconscious mind holds all
• 5:06
  of that information and we use hypnosis to access that
• 5:10
  information in the subconscious mind.
• 5:13
  And we can access information. The subconscious mind will
• 5:16
  bubble up like in our sleep, in our daydreams, it'll bubble up
• 5:19
  accidentally as we're talking. So it's not the only way we can
• 5:23
  access this, that information. But to me, it's such a clear and
• 5:27
  direct way and just a really magical experience as well.
• 5:32
  So it's that deep state of relaxation.
• 5:36
  A common question that people will have is what if I fall
• 5:39
  asleep during this hypnotic journey or I've tried a hypnotic
• 5:42
  journey and I fall asleep all the time.
• 5:45
  And because this is such a deep state of relaxation and kind of
• 5:49
  the next level of deepness into relaxation is sleep, that if
• 5:54
  your body needs sleep, it will take sleep.
• 5:58
  So it's not a bad thing. Sleep is like one of the best
• 6:01
  things that we can do to enjoy our experience here on Earth.
• 6:04
  So if you were to fall asleep, that's what's happening.
• 6:08
  If you go in and you're like, wow, I don't remember anything,
• 6:11
  it's because you fell asleep. So with that, just know in the
• 6:15
  future when you're doing it, just maybe make sure you get a
• 6:17
  good night's sleep the night before.
• 6:19
  Or maybe you don't do it right before bed, or maybe you do it
• 6:22
  earlier in the day, or maybe you do it in a seated position
• 6:26
  instead of totally reclined. So there are different ways to
• 6:29
  do it for sure. It's not a bad thing, it just
• 6:31
  happens. And if you need a nap, your body
• 6:33
  takes a nap and it's a beautiful thing and you're still getting
• 6:37
  those hypnotic suggestions even if you are sleeping.
• 6:40
  As we move through this past life journey, if you were to
• 6:43
  sleep through the whole thing, I'm giving you hypnotic
• 6:46
  suggestions to remember it in the future, to be able to
• 6:49
  integrate these insights, this wisdom into your life in a way
• 6:53
  that helps you and helps your intention for the journey.
• 6:56
  So you will be getting that information.
• 6:58
  Our subconscious mind is always aware, it's always awake.
• 7:03
  And hypnosis is just a great way to get in there, get to that
• 7:07
  space, get that information. So another question that people
• 7:11
  often have is what if I'm afraid of what I see in a past life?
• 7:14
  Like that's, that is a real fear, right?
• 7:18
  Like one of the things that we do, if you listen to episode 3
• 7:21
  of past Lives and the Divine, it's anatomy of a past life
• 7:23
  regression. And one of the things that we do
• 7:25
  is we go through a death scene. So in theory, you're having a
• 7:29
  memory of your soul leaving your body.
• 7:31
  And that can be frightening on many levels.
• 7:35
  So I, I totally get that. But what's so cool about the
• 7:38
  death scene is that everyone who goes through it is like, whoa,
• 7:43
  that was not that bad at all. And it's one of the things that
• 7:46
  I think is so healing about past life regression in a way that
• 7:49
  most of us are not even intending.
• 7:51
  And it's this ease around death or not ease, but like more of a,
• 7:56
  a mental clarity or peace, like, oh, we really do see it as a
• 8:01
  transition. It's like, oh, I've been through
• 8:03
  that transition, you know, And then that way in the future, I
• 8:07
  know for me, having gone through many death scenes, when someone
• 8:11
  passes away, I still experience grief and anger and sadness and
• 8:15
  all of that. But along with it is this deep
• 8:18
  sense of peace and knowing that like they are at peace.
• 8:21
  And really my grief is that like, they're not in my life
• 8:24
  anymore. I'm not terrified for them.
• 8:28
  So that's kind of a little bit of a tangent.
• 8:31
  So it is really normal for people to have fears of anything
• 8:35
  that they're going to see. Or maybe you have nightmares and
• 8:37
  you're like, maybe this is a past life I don't want to
• 8:39
  experience. So the subconscious mind, one of
• 8:42
  its roles is to keep us safe. So we've, most of us have
• 8:46
  probably heard the example of like, if I put my hand on a hot
• 8:51
  burner, my hand is off that burner before consciously my
• 8:54
  mind is like, that's hot. Take your hand off.
• 8:58
  It's our subconscious mind that senses it before our conscious
• 9:01
  mind. And, you know, sets off the the
• 9:03
  cascade of events that happens in a body to pull my hand off of
• 9:08
  that burner. And the same is true when we're
• 9:10
  going and experiencing past life memories or memories in general.
• 9:15
  So the subconscious mind will block things that we feel like
• 9:18
  we might not be ready for. It will even at times I've had
• 9:23
  clients who have experiences in a past life regression and it's
• 9:27
  almost like their subconscious mind is speaking more in
• 9:30
  metaphor. Whether it's like, I don't know,
• 9:32
  I just see a popsicle, I don't know.
• 9:35
  I'm just seeing this thing. And then it's like, OK, if we
• 9:39
  can't figure anything out about that, often times that person
• 9:43
  circles back and they're like, I know exactly what that was.
• 9:45
  The subconscious mind is really there to keep us safe.
• 9:49
  And then this is also a good point to hit home when we're
• 9:51
  actually in that space of hypnotic trance.
• 9:55
  A lot of times people will have just this doubt this.
• 10:00
  Like I don't know, what if I don't see anything and a lot of
• 10:03
  us aren't super visual. So for me personally, when I'm,
• 10:07
  when I'm in that hypnotic trance state, if someone were to ask me
• 10:12
  a question, are you inside or outside?
• 10:14
  It's not that I get a clear vision in my mind's eye about
• 10:18
  like, oh, I'm outside in this beautiful forest.
• 10:21
  It's more so I get this feeling like, Oh yeah, I'm kind of,
• 10:25
  yeah, I'm outside. Like almost like there's a
• 10:27
  chill. Not in a bad way, but it's
• 10:29
  almost more of a feeling or the word outside or inside or are
• 10:34
  you, you know, what is your gender or what is your age?
• 10:37
  A number will pop up. Like it's just almost like a
• 10:41
  knowing or a feeling for me. Sometimes people get a clear,
• 10:44
  clear picture and it can be images, sensations, feelings,
• 10:50
  emotions, knowings. This information can come to us
• 10:54
  in so many ways. OK, more on hypnosis, how it
• 10:58
  works, Everybody can do it. We all pass through this
• 11:02
  hypnotic tramp state on our way to and from sleep.
• 11:07
  And then another thing, all hypnosis is self hypnosis.
• 11:10
  So I am not personally trained in any sort of entertainment or
• 11:14
  stage hypnosis, but the hypnosis that I do train through the
• 11:18
  National Association of Transpersonal Hypnotherapists,
• 11:22
  it's all about healing, little bit of entertainment, light
• 11:26
  heartedness, exploration of the unseen realms.
• 11:29
  And so with that, with that healing piece, it's all about
• 11:33
  you wanting to do it and you allowing yourself to relax and
• 11:39
  you getting weird and just observing what comes to mind as
• 11:43
  we go on this hypnotic journey. Really, if you don't want to be
• 11:47
  hypnotized, if you don't think this is going to work, it's not
• 11:50
  going to work. Like everybody can be
• 11:53
  hypnotized. Everybody has this ability
• 11:56
  unless they don't think so. And then it's literally the
• 12:00
  power of that human intention of I will not go anywhere, you will
• 12:04
  not go anywhere. And it really is that easy.
• 12:07
  And I truly believe that. And that's why all of my
• 12:10
  one-on-one sessions, all of my clients go somewhere.
• 12:13
  They all get something, even if it is not what they expected.
• 12:18
  But I think it is because I truly believe that everybody can
• 12:22
  be hypnotized. So I'm not going to give up on
• 12:24
  you in a session because I know you'll get there.
• 12:25
  We just have to relax more. And I just want you to know that
• 12:28
  you can do this. Like literally all you have to
• 12:30
  do is be relaxed. And even if I do the induction
• 12:36
  at the end of the induction, when we do this group journey in
• 12:39
  just a few minutes, if we get to the end of that induction, if
• 12:43
  you have a feeling of like, I don't think I'm hypnotized, know
• 12:47
  that that's totally normal. Like I felt like that.
• 12:50
  It probably took me like over 20 past life regressions where I
• 12:53
  was the client to really feel, not feel that way, not have that
• 13:00
  automatic thought. So you have been in hypnotic
• 13:03
  trance before, whether you intended to be or not.
• 13:06
  So it doesn't feel that foreign to us.
• 13:09
  You just feel incredibly relaxed.
• 13:11
  But is it in the past? Some people believe in
• 13:14
  reincarnation and timelines. And so, yeah, if you experience
• 13:18
  a life in the 1700s, that's the past.
• 13:22
  I used to believe that for sure. Now with my own personal
• 13:26
  transcendental experiences like these past life journeys and
• 13:29
  spending time in the space between lives myself with
• 13:33
  clients, I kind of think it's all happening at once.
• 13:38
  But I am not a capital E expert on this so I still use the term
• 13:44
  past. But I don't know I I'm saying
• 13:46
  more and more like other lifetimes, another lifetime, a
• 13:49
  different life because is it in the past or not?
• 13:53
  I'm not sure. I do know that we experienced
• 13:56
  time as we do because we are on a planet that rotates around
• 14:00
  this star in this certain way. And so is chances are time is at
• 14:06
  least different off of this planet.
• 14:10
  That's as far as I'll go. I feel like I'm just this is all
• 14:15
  speaking for my own personal experience, like in my own
• 14:18
  journeys and then journeying with clients.
• 14:20
  Another thing too is like, are they just my lives or is my
• 14:26
  awareness accessing other lives? Like, am I somehow getting into
• 14:32
  this collective consciousness and just pulling out other
• 14:35
  lives, lives that could help me if I set the intention to
• 14:39
  experience a life that'll help me feel more like I can trust
• 14:44
  myself today, more confident, more speaking my truth, all of
• 14:47
  that stuff. Like, does it have to be my
• 14:51
  life? I don't know, maybe it's someone
• 14:53
  else's. Maybe that's why a few people
• 14:55
  experience multiple, you know, multiple people have said I was
• 14:59
  Cleopatra, I was Marilyn Monroe. I don't know.
• 15:03
  And then at the very, I think the most boring idea for me
• 15:07
  around accessing past lives using hypnosis is what if it's
• 15:12
  all made-up? What if we think we're
• 15:15
  experiencing a past life memory coming from our subconscious
• 15:18
  mind, but maybe it's like our brain just kind of making up the
• 15:21
  story that's helping us heal. And while that is both kind of
• 15:26
  like it would be a little bit of a let down to me, it would also
• 15:30
  almost be more impressive if I was able to do that on my own
• 15:34
  with my own brain and not have some sort of like higher power
• 15:39
  or deeper, you know, part of my brain holding all these soul
• 15:43
  experiences. So it's it's up in the air.
• 15:47
  I don't know, like my thoughts on this have changed over the
• 15:51
  past five to 10 years and they will continue to change.
• 15:55
  And I think that that's important to bring up because a
• 15:57
  lot of times when we're in these unseen realms, navigating around
• 16:02
  what I see, what blocks people in these unseen realms is this
• 16:06
  idea of like, I have to get it right.
• 16:08
  I can't ever change my mind. This has to be right.
• 16:12
  And it's just not true. It's not needed and it's not
• 16:17
  helpful. So to go into it just like with
• 16:19
  an open mind and who knows? Let me know if you have, you
• 16:23
  know, if you have these experiences and you start to
• 16:26
  feel like, no, it is in the past or, or whatever, you know, and
• 16:30
  I've actually had past life regressions where I think I was
• 16:33
  in the future. So who knows?
• 16:37
  I think it's just fun to play around in.
• 16:39
  I'm someone who's super comfortable, you know, filing a
• 16:42
  lot of things under almost like magic.
• 16:44
  Like I don't have to know how the lights work in order for me
• 16:47
  to enjoy it. So it's fun as these experiences
• 16:52
  unfold and I just have more and more experiences in these unseen
• 16:56
  realms, just to just to be able to see how my own beliefs and my
• 17:00
  own understandings of what it is that we're accessing here and
• 17:05
  how it is that we're accessing. It just kind of grows and
• 17:08
  evolves with my experience. OK.
• 17:13
  There is so much we can do with hypnosis.
• 17:17
  So I'm just going to bring this in here because I'm not going to
• 17:22
  spend a lot of time on this, but you can read like read the
• 17:25
  slide, all the different things that we can do in that space of
• 17:30
  hypnotic trance. We know from the habit
• 17:33
  cessation, supporting mental health, stress relief, that sort
• 17:36
  of thing, which a lot of us know of, to all the way down to like
• 17:41
  even these woo woo spiritual kind of entity removal.
• 17:45
  Even so there's so much that we can do with hypnosis.
• 17:48
  And if any of this like kind of makes you like, hey, I want to
• 17:52
  learn more about that. I've talked about all of this
• 17:55
  pretty much on my podcast. So you could always go to my
• 17:58
  podcast and search any of these. So much that we can do in that
• 18:02
  hypnotic trance space. Really what's the most important
• 18:07
  part is that you find a space that you can totally, completely
• 18:11
  relax in. And so when I meet, what I mean
• 18:15
  is that if you were to fall asleep, you and, and everyone
• 18:19
  you love and even people you don't love are going to be safe.
• 18:23
  So I, my hope is that you don't fall asleep tonight, but you
• 18:27
  want to be in a space where it would be totally comfortable and
• 18:30
  safe for you to fall asleep. OK, Afraid of what you'll see?
• 18:33
  Like I said, I give you cues to help you feel safe.
• 18:37
  And I also, we're working in that subconscious mind in that
• 18:41
  deep state of relaxation. That's where we can access that
• 18:44
  information. And so that subconscious mind is
• 18:47
  also there to keep us safe. So just know, even if it is
• 18:53
  uncomfortable, even if you do experience like grief or sadness
• 18:57
  or tears of joy, even like emotions are safe.
• 19:02
  You are totally safe in this container.
• 19:05
  Just be, just listen, just observe.
• 19:08
  You will remember. And you know what?
• 19:11
  It'll be the same kind of shoddy memory if you're anything like
• 19:15
  me, as if we were just you and I were having a conversation for
• 19:18
  90 minutes. I'd be like, I remember what we
• 19:21
  talked about, but like, I don't remember every single word.
• 19:23
  And the same is true with the hypnotic journey.
• 19:27
  You will remember. And as time goes on, that memory
• 19:30
  will fade, unfortunately. That's why I love to, like, keep
• 19:35
  notes about my hypnotic journeys and that sort of thing.
• 19:38
  OK. And then if you fall asleep
• 19:40
  again, if you fall asleep, that means you needed sleep.
• 19:43
  Sleep is like the best thing you can do for yourself.
• 19:45
  So just try to do this hypnotic journey again.

  Do it at an earlier time. Do it in a seated position.
• 19:51
  Do it at a time when you're not sleep deprived.
• 19:55
  Share it with your friends. Do it with your friends on a
• 19:57
  friend's night. If you're freaky like that, we'd
• 20:00
  probably be friends if you're freaky like that, OK.
• 20:04
  And then another thing that I really want to hit home.
• 20:07
  Emotions are great. In this hypnotic journey, you
• 20:10
  might experience really strong emotions and emotions want
• 20:14
  movement, they want to be expressed, they want to be
• 20:17
  moved. And that's the most healthy
• 20:19
  thing we can do. Whether it's joy or grief or
• 20:23
  anger, rage, whatever it is, just allow that to come up and
• 20:28
  out. Even if it doesn't seem to make
• 20:31
  sense. Even if you're like, I don't
• 20:32
  know why I'm crying, just allow it to come up and out.
• 20:35
  It'll all make sense as we kind of wrap things up at the end,
• 20:40
  but just to let you know, it's great to experience that emotion
• 20:44
  and sometimes emotions are uncomfortable, especially a lot
• 20:46
  of us are trained that we shouldn't have emotions and it's
• 20:50
  just not true. And so this hypnotic trance
• 20:53
  journey space can be a really cool space to just like really
• 20:56
  let it out and feel safe and relaxed to do it.
• 21:00
  OK everybody, that is our episode for the day.
• 21:02
