Hello,
This is my first post so although I did so research on these forums beforehand, if my questions have already been answered I apologize.
I was wondering if this is possible:
Using Hypnosis as a means of taking a vacation to your past.
I have heard that the mind records everything, all sights, sounds, smells, tastes & feelings from your life but the subconscious part of your mind is the only part that has access to these "files". I have been reading about the 2 types of age-regression,
1. Where you are in the present, basically like "watching your past on a T.V." type thing.
2. Where you are actually experiencing it first-hand, all 5 senses.
I'm interested in #2, I am wanting to go on a "trip" back to when I was younger and relive some of those times as I remember them fondly but I have some questions:
1. When I wake up will I remember everything just as if I actually just got done doing it in real life like when I come back from a normal vacation?
2. Is it true that time can seemingly slow down and if so could I re-visit about an hour of my past & only have it be less then that in real life?
Thank you for your time. 
Randy

Thank you again for you response. I will most definitely make sure I look for a hypnotist with the training you have outlined.
If anyone has ever tried something like this I am wanting to know how real it was for them?
I am hoping to feel every minute & remember it just as if I actually did it yesterday. |

If you're going to pursue this, the best outcome would be from using an experienced hypnotist who practices hypno-analysis/analytical hypnosis. These hypnotists will be trained to deal with memory work. If they are not trained in this, they run the risk of inadvertently creating false memory, and/or influencing your perceptions of the memories.
It sounds like you have "pieces" of the memory, which would lead me to believe that other "pieces" are in there too.
Good luck :) |

Thank you for your response. The memories that I wish to "relive" do have an emotional connection. I remember bits and pieces of it regularly but I figured that age-regression would allow me to "swim in the ocean" of my memories/experiences as apposed to "just catching the same random rain drops" of them. spending Saturday mornings with my family, going to my brother's soccer games, my times in Jr. high school, these all have an emotional connection for me & I wish to "visit" them as fully as possible.
I have also been told that I have a very good knack for recalling SOME things from my past with great amount of detail. I don't know if that can give an indication of how well I'd be able to recall memories/sensations under age-regression but I can only hope it would help. |

I've done a little over 4,000 affect bridge age regressions with clients.
People can experience memories as #1 and/or #2. And can generally switch between them with practice and guidance.
The mind is capable of storing a vast amount of information from an experience. But, different people's minds tend to be better at remembering different aspects of a memory... some people have better recall with visual, some with audio, some smell, etc..
The subcon is just a theoretical construct.. .just makes it easier to discuss how the mind functions. Long term memories are stored as neural pathways in areas that "conscious" mind has less access to.. or more restricted access to.
The mind has "plasticity"... memories can be fluid. They can be 'created', 'forgotten', and modified. Sometimes they are accurate, sometimes they are symbolic, and sometimes they are both. They are not always accurate. They ARE always subjective and based upon the perspective the individual held at that point in their life.. and generally continue to do so.
Some memories are perceived as so insignificant (absent of strong emotion, repetition, and/or authority figure (not a learning experience)) that there may not actually be stored for later recall.. it may just have been stored temporarily and then "dumped".
Answers:
1. Not so much "reliving" the event. The emotional content of a memory is part of that neural pathway and should be triggered when "revivifying" the memory. It is not typically like re-living the event.. It's a subtle difference, but notable.
2. Yes. Time distortion is a common experience during hypnosis. Memories can be ran through quite quickly, but still be experienced quite fully. Somewhat like dreaming can be. |
