  • Before Birth, After Death & What Hypnosis Reveals with Sam Joshi
    May 20 2025
    In this episode, I sit down with hypnotherapist Samanvaya “Sam” Joshi to explore what really lives beneath the surface of our everyday awareness. We dive into Quantum Healing Hypnosis—a gentle yet profound process that opens the door to the subconscious mind, where old stories, past lives, and even pre-birth memories are stored. Sam shares how we can access the root of emotional pain without force, without faith, and without needing to “believe” in anything. This approach does not need to conflict with dogmas, as the goal is to uncover what already resides in the unconscious mind.We talk about healing the inner child, remembering our soul’s path, and how hypnotherapy can help rewire patterns that began before we could speak. There’s a beautiful intersection here between science and soul—between the brain’s neuroplasticity and the timeless wisdom that lives within us. If you’re curious about the deeper layers of healing, or if you’ve ever wondered what your subconscious is trying to tell you, this conversation is for you.Chapters:(00:00:00) Introduction(00:01:44) Eyla’s Inner Journey: Hypnosis, Past Lives, and Healing with Sam Joshi(00:03:44) Unlocking the Subconscious: Sam Joshi’s Approach to Quantum Healing Hypnosis (QHHT)(00:09:00) Opening the Door to the Subconscious: The Power of Relaxation and Trust in Hypnosis(00:13:00) From Seeker to Healer: Sam Joshi’s Journey to Dolores Cannon and Hypnotherapy(00:20:12) Soul Bonds in Hypnosis: Discovering the Invisible Thread That Connects Us(00:22:48) No Faith Required: Breaking Down Skepticism and Unlocking the Power of Hypnosis(00:29:45) The Lost Voice Within: Healing the Inner Child and Rebuilding Trust in Ourselves(00:41:44) Past Lives Revealed: How Hypnotherapy Opens the Door to the Soul’s History(00:50:14) Rethinking the Afterlife: Escaping the Constraints of Heaven and Hell(00:56:23) Layers of Memory: From Pre-Birth Consciousness to Infant Pain Recall(01:02:58) The Path to Empowerment: Taking Responsibility for Your Spiritual and Physical Journey(01:09:02) Unlocking Life’s Full Potential: The Alchemical Power of HypnotherapyConnect with Sam Joshi:Website Instagram Connect with Eyla Cuenca: Website Eyla’s InstagramYouTubeConnect with Born To Know:InstagramWebsiteApple PodcastsSpotifyBorn To Know is created by:Host & Executive Producer: Eyla CuencaPost-Producer & Editor: Victoria Rondón Simpson Graphic & Website Designer: Turbo RainbowWant to dive deeper into the world of birth?
