Key Discussion Points & Insights
Kristine’s Journey to Healing Work ([02:54]–[11:39])
- Personal transformation: Originally an accountant, Kristine describes hitting physical, mental, and spiritual burnout in her early thirties—a wake-up call prompting a search for meaning.
- She recounts a prayer for help, which led to a vivid, prophetic dream of herself as a healer—a life-changing moment that pushed her toward hypnotherapy and the study of psychology.
- The process of following guidance, embracing surrender, and finally feeling at home in hypnotherapy training is central:
“From the moment I entered, you know, the school... I was like, oh my God, I’m home. I’m finally recognizing who I am and why my mind works so differently.” (B at [08:56])
- Family background: A lineage of intuitive women shaped her openness to metaphysical concepts.
Hypnotherapy and Past Life Regression Explained ([11:39]–[20:11])
- Entry into past life regression: Kristine describes overcoming her Christian upbringing’s skepticism about reincarnation, investigating theological history, and discovering references to reincarnation omitted from mainstream doctrine ([12:40]).
- She highlights profound client experiences—physical ailments inexplicably healed after regression, unexplained birthmarks linked to past life wounds ([14:00]).
“So much healing happens through past regression... One past regression healed severe back pain that was unexplained by the western world and severe headaches.” (B at [13:21])
- Birthmarks and trauma: Scientific studies suggest that birthmarks and moles may sometimes trace to past life injuries—a notion that bridges metaphysics and research.
Introduction to Kambo Healing ([14:58]–[19:06])
- What is Kambo?: Kristine briefly explains her certification in Kambo, an Amazonian ritual involving frog peptides applied to superficial skin burns. Used by tribes for hunting, it’s considered an energetic and physical detox.
- Effects and healing scope: Clients report ancestral cleansing, symptom relief, appetite suppression, and transformative emotional experiences.
“It cleanses you ancestrally in a sense—seven generations back, seven generations forth.” (B at [16:15])
The Mechanics of Hypnosis: Dispelling Myths ([20:11]–[24:51])
- Clarifying misconceptions: Hypnotherapy is distinguished from stage hypnosis—there is no loss of control, and participants are not made to perform ridiculous acts.
- Hypnosis is a daily phenomenon occurring upon waking and before sleep, involving a shift from beta (active mind) to alpha/theta (intuitive, relaxed) brainwaves that synchronize heart and mind.
- Trust and surrender are key—hypnosis cannot override ego resistance, but it can learn to gently quiet the analytical mind.
Emotional Safety & Navigating Painful Past Lives ([24:51]–[30:57])
- Clients have options: reliving experiences in-body, as an observer, or “watching on a screen.” Most choose to feel the sensations directly for deeper healing.
- Kristine demonstrates skilled guidance—adjusting a client’s perspective to avoid retraumatization during a distressing memory ([27:49]).
- Warning against solo hypnosis: Self-guided regressions can trigger trauma; she recounts a client who was “stuck” after a traumatic regression with a YouTube video ([28:17]).
“You need to have a guide so that if you get yourself in situations like this, there’s a guide to guide you through it.” (B at [27:55])
Intuition and the Expansion of Gifts ([31:08]–[35:31])
- Over years of work, Kristine’s own intuitive abilities have opened further; she often receives visions or direct messages for clients during sessions.
- She emphasizes that everyone is born intuitive—the difference is in self-trust, often undermined in childhood.
Trauma, Near-Death Experiences, and Spiritual Opening ([35:53]–[41:27])
- Kristine demystifies spiritual “gifts”: one doesn’t need a near-death experience to awaken intuition—trauma or pivotal life events can trigger it.
- Recounts personal brushes with death and how these informed her sense of purpose.
- Challenges the timeframe of healing:
“Who says that it has to take 10 years? ... What if we could do it in five sessions?” (B at [40:51])
Kristine’s Books: Tools for Transformation ([41:43]–[48:08])
- Living Through Choice: Focuses on reclaiming agency—moving from victimhood to conscious creator.
- Wisdom Unbounded: Encourages readers to realize that all the wisdom they seek is within, akin to the memory encoded in water; highlights the shift to inner exploration especially during the pandemic.
- The value of subconscious work: conscious exercises alone won’t shift one’s life—true change happens at the deep subconscious (“the hard drive”).
Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments
- On realizing your path:
“If I could change that quickly—oh my god, this is it.” (B at [07:55])
- On guidance and intuition:
“I always remind my clients, the only difference is how much do we trust in our gifts.” (B at [35:31])
- On past life regression’s healing:
“...One past regression healed severe back pain that was unexplained by the western world.” (B at [13:21])
- On the role of music:
“I truly believe that music is the tie that binds...each of us has a soundtrack that accompanies our life.” (A at [48:29])
- Musical inspiration:
“Imagine... Those lyrics... imagining a world where there’s more peace, where there’s more freedom, where there’s more joy...” (B at [49:37])
