FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Absolutely! This process is gentle to you and your child. As we work within the energy of your higher self, it’s natural for some difficult feelings to arise. If they do, they are seen, embraced and accepted without judgment and upheld by the wisdom and unconditional love of your higher self.

I like to think of the higher self as a bridge connecting our embodied physical selves to our divine selves. It’s the portion of us that stays between the manifested world and the invisible spiritual realm. In my own experiences, I’ve witnessed the higher self sending out a portion of its light, which dwells within our inner heart behind or directly below our physical heart. 

Our higher self is ourselves unbounded, unlimited by the constraints of our body, physical mind and all its sticky emotions. The higher self guides the whole session. Through it we fetch the soul essence of the baby, which is the baby’s higher self dwelling in the space of wisdom and unconditional love.

New parents can feel completely alone and overwhelmed. They are bringing a new life into this world, but there are so many unknowns for both the parents and child. Through these sessions, mothers and fathers can be in touch with the deeper knowing that resides inside of them.

These sessions aren’t meant to be prophetic, but what I’ve found is that the messages and knowings transmitted actually apply to how things unfold. The parents-to-be can receive guidance and mothers will tap into an inner support that they carry throughout pregnancy and birth, knowing that she is not alone in the journey. She and the baby are a team working together. 

This connection will allow the soul of the baby to inform and guide the birth in a sacred and deeply felt way. This shifts their vibration from fear to trust, so when the baby is born they can embody the energy of their souls completely.

Many times we do use the modality of past lives to get into the subconscious mind and clear old dynamics that are still alive. With this particular session we are not really interested in knowing if the past life is real or not. My focus is simply to unearth the emotional stuck energy that is woven in the story that they bring up of a past life with their baby. This is very unique to everyone and works differently with each client. We know it’s working when the client unveils the whys of certain behaviours and beliefs. This is what lets them clear their energy and inhabit their bodies with more presence.

This process is very personal. Having other people in the room can alter the dynamics and content of the session, so all sessions are one-on-one. 

My job is to hold you in a sacred, safe, and non-judgmental space. Along with this, I give you my vow of absolute confidentiality. Anything that arises in your session is treated with love and respect, and remains between us.

I also offer this session to fathers or anyone else in the family who wants to connect with the soul essence of the baby and understand their unique dynamics with the child. Again, these sessions are highly personal and private.

At the end of our session, you are free to share anything you want with others.

Make sure you eat and rest well the night before. Ideally, I advise you avoid eating animal products for 24 hours before the session as these can put weight on the energy field. Three days prior to the session, begin to observe your rhythm and watch out for synchronicities or interesting things that might happen. Write these down and bring them with you. 

If our session is in-person, arrive in comfortable clothes. Our session could be as long as four to five hours, so make sure you have a nourishing meal beforehand. You will be free to drink and use the bathroom as needed.

If our session is virtual, you must have a well-working external microphone and earphones so that we can hear each other clearly. I do not conduct sessions using a built-in microphone, as they can be challenging to hear when the body is lying down away from the device. I will also need to be able to see your upper body during the session. 

Please ensure you are in a quiet space where you will be undisturbed during the session and that you make your space as comfortable as possible, using blankets, pillows, or anything else that will help you to relax.

All Soul Connections sessions are 3 to 4 hours. This includes the time we spend together in our pre and post-session talks. Occasionally, a session may take a little longer so please be spacious about the time and generous with your process.

After your session you will receive the session notes, post-session support, an audio recording made just for you based upon the wisdom revealed in your session, and post-session practices to help you deepen and ground your newfound sense of connection. If you are pregnant, you will also have my personal support via email, phone or text throughout the rest of your pregnancy, the labor and birth of your baby (as your Soula or virtual Soul Doula) and throughout your mothering years.

The Red Thread Journey is a set of 8 to 10 sessions of about 3 hours each. These sessions are completed over several weeks to several months. The Red Thread Journey includes session notes, post-session practices, assignments, and post-session support, a meditation recording made just for you and, if you are pregnant, my personal support via email, phone or text throughout the rest of your pregnancy, the labor and birth of your baby (as your Soula or virtual Soul Doula) and throughout your mothering years.

In person Doula services are mapped out according to your needs and preferences.

I recommend listening to this audio two times a day for at least a month.

The wisdom unveiled in your session has no expiration date; it is timeless and will remain relevant and valid for the rest of your and your child’s (or children’s) life. The more you listen to your personal audio recording, the more you will be able to recall your experience, helping you to anchor your wisdom in your day-to-day life. This is a way to make the sacred in you real and alive.

Please make sure you’ll be able to attend your session at the booked day and time. If my current schedule doesn’t accommodate to your time-zone, please contact me and I will do my best to offer alternate arrangements.

If you need to cancel or reschedule your Soul Connections session, you must do so at least 72 hours before your scheduled time. I do not offer refunds for cancellations within three days of your scheduled session.

Also, you must arrive on the Zoom link within ten minutes of your scheduled session start-time. If you do not, then the session will be cancelled and there will be no refund.

Exceptions to the cancellation policy: If you need to reschedule due to sudden illness or a natural disaster, please contact me.

I see clients who are located all over the world, I usually hold sessions online yet we can meet in person if you happen to be in my area or are willing to travel there. Sometimes, I might be able to travel to you, if so, extra fees would apply.

• Find a quiet space in your home, where you will not be interrupted by people or pets during the Zoom session.
• Bring pillows, blankets, and anything else that will make you feel comfortable. You may also have a cup of warm water or herbal tea nearby (avoid caffeinated beverages).

1. After you receive your booking confirmation via email, fill out the client information and agreement form, sign it and send it back to me at least two days before your session.
2. Listen to the audio track I provide. Get acquainted with my voice guiding you deeper, and practice relaxing your mind and body.
3. Write down the questions (ideally no more than six combined) that you have for your higher self and the soul of your baby, bring them to the session.
4. Join me on Zoom at your scheduled appointment time.
5. After our pre-session discussion we will proceed with the Soul Connections session.
6. If the call drops at any point during the session, no problem! We’ll almost certainly be able to easily reconnect to the Zoom meeting room, and successfully complete your Soul Connections session.
7. Within seven days after your session, I will send you a written transcript of your session for you to rewrite. This supports a deeper integration of the two hemispheres of the brain, and the surfacing of additional insights, information, and messages from your higher self.
8. Within seven days after your session, I will also send you a custom-made meditation that will allow you to access the energy and insights gained during the session.
9. I’ll also send you a document describing post-session exercises, to be completed for the seven days following your session. These meditations, exercises, and explorations will require only about fifteen minutes of your time each day. They will help you more fully integrate the insights from your Soul Connections session into all the aspects of your daily life.

• No other people should be in the room or listening on the call with you during the session.
• Audio or video recording of your session is not permitted.

Hypnotherapy is a healing modality that employs hypnosis for the purpose of recovering suppressed memories and/or supporting the transformation of belief systems and behavior via hypnotic suggestions.

Fact: No one has remained indefinitely in a hypnotic state. In fact, the hypnotic state can be terminated at will. It is as simple as opening the eyes. A person cannot get stuck in hypnosis.

Fact: Nine out of ten people (a full 90%!) can be hypnotized.

Fact: Actually, it’s nearly impossible to hypnotize a feeble-minded person. Why? Because accepting and deeply integrating hypnotic suggestions requires imagination and a conscious willingness to cooperate. The more intelligent, creative, and imaginative someone is, the easier it is to hypnotize them. 

Hypnosis tends not to be effective with people whose minds are not well-integrated. It’s also challenging to induce hypnosis in people who are rigidly analytical and/or controlling.

Fact: A person cannot be hypnotized against their will. They have to want to be hypnotized in order for it to happen. The best subject is a person who has a definite reason and motivation to be hypnotized. To be successfully hypnotized, a person must:

• Want to be hypnotized.
• Have confidence in the hypnotist.
• Be willing to accept suggestion.
• Be free from fear.
• Be able to relax, and free from the need to be in control.

Fact: While in hypnosis, a person will never abandon his or her moral principles. They will not commit antisocial acts. They retain the power to select only the suggestions they are willing to accept. They will reject any improper suggestions and will never commit a crime or immoral act.

The ego never totally dissociates when in hypnosis. Because the ego is present when in hypnosis, a person will never act outside of their code of ethics.

Fact: Hypnosis may in certain ways resemble sleep, yet it is not sleep—and is in fact a state of heightened and expanded awareness. If a client falls asleep then they are not in hypnosis. In hypnosis, a person is aware of everything that is going on around them. They hear sounds in the general vicinity and remain fully aware of what is being said to them. In fact, the senses are often enhanced when a person is in the hypnotic state. This is known as hyperacuity.

Fact: A person does not need to be in a deep state of hypnosis to benefit from hypnotherapy. Beneficial results can also come while in a light trance.

Fact: Hypnosis is an altered yet completely natural state of mind. It is a natural hypnotic trance state, which is very similar to daydreaming, or the feeling of “losing oneself” in a book or movie.

Fact: You can be relaxed and yet not be hypnotized—and you can be hypnotized and not fully relaxed. Relaxation is only one aspect of one type of hypnosis.

Fact: Catalepsy can occur in or out of trance and is not equivalent to hypnosis. The apparently catatonic state known as the hypnotic coma is not an unconscious or cataleptic state, but rather is a state of profound relaxation in which the person does not wish to move, think, or speak. However, he or she is fully conscious and can terminate that state anytime they want to.

Fact: According to the American Heritage Dictionary, brainwashing is defined as “intensive, forcible indoctrination, usually political or religious, aimed at destroying a person’s basic convictions and attitudes and replacing them with an alternative set of fixed beliefs.” 

Brainwashing involves an altered state where some form of deprivation is present. A hypnotist cannot make someone do something that they would not do normally. Furthermore, a skillful hypnotist empowers clients to access the hypnotic state themselves and to initiate their own beneficial transformations.

Fact: A hypnotist does not have power over another person. Modern hypnosis uses the word “in” when describing hypnosis, rather than “under.” A person is said to be “in” a hypnotic state, rather than “under” hypnosis—which may imply the hypnotic subject being “under” the power of the hypnotist.

In modern hypnotherapy, the hypnotist and his or her client are seen as equals: The hypnotist facilitates process but does not control it. Ultimately, clients resolve their issues by accessing their own inner resources, from their subconscious mind and higher self.

Fact: A person can lie in hypnosis. They can edit and withhold information in hypnosis. They do not have to reveal secrets. When hypnotized, a person will not do anything against their will. They have the power to reject any suggestion that is given to them. A client will never divulge or do anything that he or she would not say or do in a regular waking state.

Fact: There are no religious connotations associated with hypnosis. Its benefits are available equally to people affiliated with any and all spiritual or religious traditions—as well as to people with no such affiliations.

Fact: Hypnosis can be used to uncover repressed memories, but the hypnotic state itself does not, by default, bring them to the surface. A client will never see something that he or she is not ready to see. And such memories will only come to the surface if the client and/or the hypnotist intends to bring them up.
