Amy Collett, owner of Sacred Journey to Healing

Your Higher Self knows you best, and knows what you need to heal.

That’s the idea behind Quantum Healing Hypnosis Technique, or QHHT. It’s an old practice, introduced by Dolores Cannon. But it’s relatively new to the Jackson area, and certified QHHT practitioner Amy Collett is thrilled to offer it from her Alpine home or from the comfort of your own home.

QHHT is, as the name suggests, a form of hypnosis. Through visualization, Collett guides clients to their “Theta” state — not quite conscious, not quite unconscious. You already go there twice a day, right before you fall asleep and right after you wake up.

This is where the work happens. Contrary to popular belief about hypnosis, there’s no swinging pendulum in front of your face, no snap-of-the-finger trigger into a deep trance. Instead, it’s a slow and peaceful journey. There’s a necessary level of awareness mingling in your state of almost-unconsciousness. In other words, you may be consciously aware of what your subconscious mind is doing. Collett will ask you to visit a peaceful place in your mind, and you will, somewhat consciously, go there.

But don’t let your conscious get too in your way. Throughout your journey, Collett will direct you to different places and scenes from your past.  She’ll ask questions. “What do you see? Who do you see?” Trust whatever answer comes to you first — that’s your subconscious, or your Higher Self, doing the work. You’ll know in your heart what to say, and there’s no wrong answer.

QHHT works to heal both physical and emotional ailments. This is where your “Higher Self” really comes into play. Your Higher Self is your Inner Wisdom, the part of your being that knows you best. He or she knows exactly what you need to heal — your job is just to listen.

Your journey may carry you through difficult times. It will help you understand where some of your emotional blocks come from. Why you have trouble communicating, for example. Why you carry guilt. Physical and emotional trauma can follow us through our lives. What happened in your past that you need to let go of? Only your Higher Self can tell you.

Collett can also connect you with the subconscious of your pet. Our pets are part of the family, and we want what’s best for them. But, of course, we don’t speak the same language! Collett can help you connect with your pet’s subconscious to ask any questions you might have so you can deepen your relationship and help them heal.

Collett is adamant in assuring that she is not doing the work, you are. She’s just there to guide you and ask questions of your Higher Self. QHHT sessions typically last 4-5 hours, but the real work begins after you leave. Collett will record your session, and send you home with a copy of your recording. The more you listen to your recording, she says, the better your results will be. It will remind you of the direction your Higher Self gave during your session, and can re-induce the feeling of relaxation and bliss people often feel after QHHT.
