was about to happen. When things were going well, when she was
happy, she started waiting for the “other shoe to fall.” She was
Murphy’s Law taken to the extreme.
I regressed her to a life in which she was a much loved only
child – a real “daddy’s girl”. She was given a horse for her birthday
and was ecstatically happy. One day, she jumped onto the horse,

irrational mistrust and the pain.
And then there was my student who had first been trained in
Clinical Hypnotherapy by me and then went on to take my Past
Life Regression and Therapy training. His dream to become a
