I had a hypnosis session with Steve on November 27th of last year. I’ve come to realize that hypnosis also depends on timing and circumstances. I’ve known Steve for many years, but I never felt there was an issue in my life that required hypnosis. It wasn’t until last November that I decided to try hypnosis to address a heart problem that had been troubling me.
At that time, I often felt a hollow weakness in my heart. A cardiologist ran thorough tests but found nothing wrong. I also tried traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture, which brought some improvement, but they didn’t resolve the underlying weakness. When I was running out of options, it suddenly occurred to me to try regression hypnosis and see if it might help.
During the session, I didn’t access many past life memories but instead very quickly connected with my Higher Self. There could be many reasons why I didn’t explore more past lives—possibly connected to my own subconscious. Deep down, I’ve always been willing to fully accept the circumstances of this life, so I don’t feel a strong pull toward my past lives. Since my intention going into hypnosis was to seek healing for my heart, I connected with my Higher Self almost immediately.
While my Higher Self was working on me, I kept questioning whether it was really there or just something I was imagining. But the feeling of being filled and surrounded by a powerful, warm, deeply peaceful energy was unlike anything I had ever experienced before. That same night after the session, I felt my heart filling with energy, and about 70% of the hollow sensation disappeared. Within a few days, the weakness was completely gone. To me, it felt extraordinary. Even though I had doubted the existence of the Higher Self, the sense of oneness I felt during the session—(though it’s hard to find the right words, “oneness with the universe” feels closest)—was unlike anything I had ever experienced in daily life. The feeling was very real and intense during hypnosis, but once awake, I couldn’t fully relive it.
There’s also something else remarkable I’d like to share. Before the session, I asked Steve whether it might be possible to send healing energy through me to my mother in China, who had suffered a stroke. Steve said we could try, and that the outcome would depend on the connection between me and my mother. Once the session started and Steve asked my Higher Self whether healing could be extended to her, I felt as if my whole body became like a balloon, gradually inflating, expanding outward, and becoming lighter. This strong sensation lasted for a while, though I can’t say exactly how long.
After the hypnosis, I didn’t immediately check in detail with my mother over the phone. But two months later, when I returned to China, I noticed that when I helped move her body, she no longer complained of the usual joint pain. Her caregiver told me that in late November her pain had suddenly disappeared. I can’t say with 100% certainty that this was a result of the hypnosis, but the timing lined up. What surprised me most was how sudden the change was. According to the caregiver, one day my mom simply stopped complaining of pain, though she couldn’t say the exact day in late November when it happened.
I’m sharing this experience here because I’m also curious to know if others who’ve had hypnosis sessions have experienced anything similar.

(Steve’s note from 2018: Two and a half months ago, I facilitated a past-life regression session for Linda. Yesterday, she called me and told me about the changes she experienced before and after the regression. In 2013, she started feeling occasional chest tightness, but she didn’t pay much attention to it, thinking it was just due to fatigue. In 2014, it became more noticeable, and she constantly felt short of breath. In 2015, the day before a trip, she suddenly felt like she couldn’t breathe, panicked, and eventually passed out. They called 911, she went to the emergency room, stayed overnight, and recovered the next day. She still flew abroad for her trip. On the seventh day of her trip, the same thing happened again – she felt short of breath and passed out, and went to the local hospital’s emergency room.
From 2015 to 2018, until the day of the regression, she faced this breathing difficulty issue every day, which seriously affected her normal life. If she talked with friends for more than five minutes, she would start sweating profusely and have to stop talking. If she washed dishes, she had to take several breaks, and each break required an hour of rest to recover. If she went shopping with friends, she couldn’t really walk because she felt short of breath after walking a short distance. She could only sit and wait until her friends finished shopping. Anything that required a bit of energy was impossible for her to do. She also reduced contact with friends because she couldn’t talk for too long. She couldn’t even drive or work.
Doctors believed that the breathing difficulty was caused by a problem with her lungs or heart. But after examination, there was no problem with her lungs. Her heart was also examined and monitored with a 48-hour Holter monitor, but there was no problem. The doctor couldn’t find any cause, so they couldn’t provide any treatment.
During our phone call, Linda was very happy to report that since the day after the regression until now, she has hardly had any breathing difficulties. She can now do things she couldn’t do before. She can walk in stores without any problems and she tried to find the feeling of shortness of breath that she had before, but she couldn’t find it. She believes that the problem is 90% to 95% resolved, and although there are occasional minor issues, they no longer affect her daily life. She is very happy with the physical changes and feels like she can start living again.)
Linda’s testimonial written in 2021:
Since 2013, I have frequently experienced breathing difficulties and dizziness, which led to a diagnosis of hypertension with high blood pressure often reaching 160 or more. For many people, these symptoms may seem commonplace, but for me, since the summer of 2015, the severity of my symptoms has been around a 9 on a scale of 1 to 10. During those three years, I could hardly work, and even minor household tasks, such as washing dishes by simply putting them in the dishwasher, required me to rest several times. And each rest took an hour before I could get up again. If I talked to a friend for five minutes straight, I would feel like I couldn’t breathe and would have to stop talking. I had to go to the emergency room twice because of acute hypertension. The doctor later performed a comprehensive examination of my heart and lungs, which ruled out any problems with these two organs. All the test results were normal, and I couldn’t receive any treatment.
Around early 2018, I was talking with a close friend about how frustrating it was to suffer from health problems like this at the age of forty-something. She recommended that I talk to Steve, who could do hypnosis and see if he could help. Over the past three years, I have been exposed to the concept of mind-body-spirit, and have participated in some hypnosis courses, so I was interested in past life regression hypnosis. Later, I made an appointment with Steve and did a hypnosis session. In the second past life that I saw, Steve guided me to the last day of that life, where I saw myself as an European woman, short curly brown hair, lying in a hospital bed. I don’t know what disease she had, but it seemed difficult for her to breathe, struggling to breathe, and she just passed away. The feeling of not being able to breathe before dying in that past life was similar to the feeling of not being able to catch my breath in my present everyday life.
After the hypnosis session, I seemed to forget the feeling of breathing difficulties. I tried hard to find that feeling, but I couldn’t seem to find it. The breathing difficulties problem greatly improved since the hypnosis session. Things that I couldn’t do before, such as walking and shopping, were no longer a problem. I’m very happy about my change.
Steve’s hypnosis session opened a door for my self-healing, helping me to establish a path to connect with my inner self. I am very grateful for Steve’s help and admire his tireless exploration in the field of mind-body-spirit. Steve gave me a lot of meaningful guidance in the four years since. Although there were ups and downs, the breathing difficulty was healed, and my blood pressure returned to normal.
Human conditions, whether healthy, ill, poor, or wealthy, originate from the inner mind’s creation. If you imagine the subconscious mind as a complete piece of cloth, then a person’s life is a shape that’s cut from that cloth. Through Steve’s hypnosis, one can explore and understand the potential of the uncut fabric and gain insight into why healing is achievable and how one’s circumstances can transform. In essence, Steve’s hypnosis is a powerful tool for unlocking the possibilities of the subconscious mind.

My online past life regression session with Steve was gentle, powerful, and sacred. Sensing his compassionate heart, I felt safe to explore and trust what was coming through for me as I was guided by his wise sense of direction. I know there is more to be understood as I integrate the many facets of the full experience. I came through feeling wide awake and more relaxed in my body, knowing something quite magical had been activated on many levels.
