Dolores Cannon<\/a> once said she didn’t choose this work \u2014 it chose her. Perhaps the same is true for every soul drawn to these questions.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Dolores Cannon<\/a> (1931\u20132014) was an American hypnotherapist who spent over four decades developing a regression technique that has become one of the most widely practiced approaches to past life work worldwide. Her method \u2014 Quantum Healing Hypnosis Technique, or QHHT \u2014 emphasizes deep hypnotic states and direct communication with what Cannon called the \u201cSubconscious\u201d or \u201cHigher Self.\u201d Today, thousands of practitioners across the globe are trained in her method.<\/p>\n

Who Was Dolores Cannon?<\/h2>\n

Dolores Cannon began her career as a conventional hypnotherapist in the 1960s alongside her husband Johnny Cannon, who worked as a hypnotist in the U.S. Navy. In the early 1970s, a session with a client led Dolores unexpectedly into unfamiliar territory: the client began describing apparent past life memories in vivid, detailed narrative. This experience redirected the course of her career entirely.<\/p>\n

Over the following decades, Cannon developed and refined what became QHHT, conducted thousands of sessions, and wrote nineteen books documenting her findings. Her titles include the three-volume Convoluted Universe<\/em> series, The Three Waves of Volunteers and the New Earth<\/em>, and Jesus and the Essenes<\/em>. Cannon\u2019s books blend session transcripts with her interpretations and have sold millions of copies worldwide.<\/p>\n

She founded the Quantum Healing Hypnosis Academy (QHHA) to train practitioners, and before her death in 2014 she had certified practitioners across dozens of countries. That number has grown considerably since.<\/p>\n

What Is QHHT?<\/h2>\n

QHHT sessions are designed to access the deepest level of the hypnotic state \u2014 what Cannon called the Somnambulistic level \u2014 at which she believed genuine past life memories and direct communication with the Higher Self become possible.<\/p>\n

Key elements of a QHHT session include:<\/p>\n

Somnambulistic state:<\/strong> Unlike lighter hypnotic states used in standard regression work, QHHT aims for the deepest level of trance accessible to most people. Cannon believed this level, naturally entered during the moments just before sleep and upon waking, allows access to a deeper layer of memory and consciousness.<\/p>\n

Past life exploration:<\/strong> Sessions typically include one or more past life visualizations, guided by the practitioner with open, non-leading questions. Clients explore scenes, relationships, and the end of the life, often arriving at insights about the themes being worked through across lifetimes.<\/p>\n

The Higher Self dialogue:<\/strong> The most distinctive element of QHHT is what Cannon called \u201ccalling in the Subconscious\u201d \u2014 an aspect of the self she described as possessing greater wisdom and perspective than the conscious mind. Practitioners ask the Higher Self questions on behalf of the client, often including questions about health, life purpose, and relationships.<\/p>\n

Body scans:<\/strong> At the invitation of the Higher Self, QHHT practitioners conduct what Cannon termed a \u201cbody scan\u201d \u2014 asking the Higher Self to identify and address physical or emotional areas of concern. These are not medical procedures and no medical claims are made, but clients often report significant shifts following this part of the session.<\/p>\n

What Do Clients Experience?<\/h2>\n

Client experiences in QHHT sessions vary widely. Some enter deep trance states and report vivid, cinematic past lives<\/a>. Others remain in lighter states and describe more impressionistic experiences \u2014 feelings, colors, and knowing rather than visual narrative. Both types of experience are considered valid within the QHHT framework.<\/p>\n

Many clients report that the Higher Self dialogue is the most meaningful part of the session, describing it as contact with a profoundly wise and loving aspect of themselves. Common themes include receiving clarity about life purpose, gaining perspective on difficult relationships, and processing chronic physical symptoms or longstanding fears.<\/p>\n

Sessions are typically three to five hours long \u2014 significantly longer than standard regression sessions \u2014 to allow adequate time for induction, past life exploration, and the Higher Self dialogue.<\/p>\n

QHHT vs. Other Regression Methods<\/h2>\n

QHHT is distinguished from standard past life regression<\/a> primarily by its emphasis on the somnambulistic state and the direct Higher Self communication. Other regression approaches \u2014 including those developed by Brian Weiss and Michael Newton<\/a> \u2014 use lighter trance states and different frameworks for understanding what the client is accessing. QHHT practitioners tend to interpret past life content and Higher Self messages more literally.<\/p>\n

Finding a QHHT Practitioner<\/h2>\n

Certified QHHT practitioners have completed Dolores Cannon\u2019s official training program through the Quantum Healing Hypnosis Academy. When choosing a practitioner, Level 2 or above certification indicates more extensive training and supervised practice experience.<\/p>\n

Reincarnatiopedia\u2019s therapist directory includes certified QHHT practitioners alongside other regression approaches. Browse profiles to find a practitioner whose background, experience, and style feel like a good match for what you\u2019re seeking.<\/p>\n
