And our guest is this for today's show, Doctor Holly Duckworth,
who returns to the show after her initial visit with

(03:37):
us three years ago, Wow, not long ago. With a
PhD in psychology, she integrates clinical insight and spiritual exploration
in her work as a therapist and hypnosis practitioner, and
she's facilitated over fifteen hundred sessions using Quantum Healing Hypnosis
technique otherwise known as QHHT as developed by the late

(04:00):
Dolores Cannon. What began as a private practice for Holly
has evolved into guiding and teaching through her books in
public speaking, and she is also the author of The
Higher Self Trilogy, a three part series which explores the
spiritual dimensions of purpose, forgiveness, and gratitude, culminating in her
latest book, Finding Gratitude, Surprising Growth from the Higher Self.

(04:24):
I love that title together. The trilogy offers a path
from discovering purpose to healing through self forgiveness to embrace
gratitude as a tool for spiritual evolutionist sounds like a
plan to me. So with that, welcome back, Holly.

Speaker 2 (04:41):
Thanks Carl. It's so great to be chatting with you again.

Speaker 3 (04:44):
Wow. Three years amazing, and I imagine you know, like
we all do, we've evolved and grown just like you have.
But let's go back, let's actually find out it's been
those three years since your last appearance. Tell us what
you've been up to since then.

Speaker 2 (05:01):
Yeah, so just doing more and more and more QHHD.
You know, it's like you said, it was Dolores Canon's masterpiece.
And most of us who are operating as a Level
three practitioners stay very, very busy in the office doing sessions.
So I do three to five sessions a week, so yeah,

(05:23):
they add up. And just in case people don't know
what QHHT is, that is the kind of hypnosis. The
it's quantum healing hypnosis technique. So it's Dolores Canon's healing
form of hypnosis. And QHHT session is five to seven hours,

(05:45):
so I spend all day with one client. That client
comes in with all the questions they want to ask
the Higher Self, so we can think of the higher
self as your soul, consciousness, super consciousness, whatever name you
want to apply to it, holy spirit, and then we
go into hypnosis and the hypnosis and a QHHT session

(06:07):
is two to three hours, and that's where I'm having
a conversation through the client in deep hypnosis, the deepest
state of trance, having a direct conversation with a higher
self to get all their questions answered, and we audio
record that so the clients have the ability to then
get all of those answers and it's pretty profound. Laura said,

(06:31):
you only ever need one session, but those sessions are
in person, and that's what I spend most of my
time doing.

Speaker 3 (06:38):
You know, since you were the first, I've had a
couple of QAHT practitioners on the show now. Tracy Mahon
was on here awesome too. She's actually a channel too. However,
since we met three years ago here, I did GOSH

(06:59):
a year and a half ago, maybe I did a
QAHT session here in my town in Ohio where I live,
but I did it with one of Dolores Canon's interns.
So I went over to her house, and boy, I
found out it is a long session. I mean I
think mine was five hours, no wonder. You only do
three or five a week in a week, and you

(07:20):
have to do them live too, right, because yes, really
do it online no qaht.

Speaker 2 (07:25):
If someone tells you they're doing qaht online, they are
not doing qahd. And that's so we're I'm a level
three practitioner. Tracy's a Level three practitioner, And what that
means is is that that's the top level. It just
means that we've been independently certified to be practicing exactly
as Dolores Canon herself did. So if you go see

(07:48):
a level three practitioner, the intention is is it's as
if you're having a session with Dolores.

Speaker 3 (07:54):
Yeah. Well, and you know it's interesting. When I did
my session, I've never really done that. I'd never really
been hypnotized. I can't say that. She took me down
pretty deep, and I was it was interesting. I can't
say it was life changing, but she did kind of
did a little bit past life regression with me. I

(08:17):
went talked about a couple of lifetimes, which is weird
for me because I never experienced anything like that. So
it was pretty interesting and well worth it. You know,
I really appreciate it. But you know one thing that
I can say, I'm sure that many of our viewers
and listeners have no idea who the founder Dolores Cannon

(08:41):
is of QHHT. And you personally trained with her. Can
you tell us about Dolores?

Speaker 2 (08:47):
Yeah, so she unfortunately she left this realm in twenty fourteen.
She was in her eighties by then, so her work
in hypnosis goes all the way back to the nineteen sixties,
and her and her husband did start with the old
fashioned lose weight, stop smoking, clinical hypnosis kind of thing,
and they stumbled, inadvertently stumbled on some past life experiences.

(09:13):
And the way Dolores would tell it is her husband
wasn't terribly interested in that. I'm sure, being a provider,
a dad with four kids, he was more interested with
the you know, just just keep them rolling with the
stop smoking and lose weight. But she was super interested
in it in the past life thing, and so he

(09:35):
was in a tragic accident and died at a younger age.
And so here she was in her fifties, kids are grown,
and she's kind of reflecting on what are we going
to do for the rest of my life? And she
remembered that past life stuff and she's like, Oh, I'm
really curious about that. So she went back into the

(09:55):
realm of hypnosis, but this time specifically interested in lies.
She ended up creating her own publishing company, Ozark Mountain Publishing,
because nobody else would publish her books they were so
out there, and she ended up publishing twenty one books
over her lifetime. She still had books in the file

(10:18):
cabinet when she passed in twenty fourteen, and most of
her books are about her research that she called it
research that she did with hypnosis. So, for example, she
wrote two books on Jesus, Jesus and the Scenes and
They Walked with Jesus because she had a client who
regressed as the rabbi that gave Jesus and John their

(10:39):
bar mitzvahs. So she went down that rabbit hole and
wrote books on Jesus. She wrote lots and lots of
et books, so about extraterrestrial and galactic past life experiences,
so Keepers of the Garden, the Custodians, different books on that.

(11:02):
She wrote the Convoluted Universe series, So there's five books
there of just all sorts of craziness about quantum theory
and the nature reality and all sorts of things like that.
That's the Convoluted Series. And then kind of in the
early two thousands, she wrote a book that's really pertinent

(11:25):
today and it's called Three Waves of Volunteers in the
New Earth. So she was doing research on the New
Earth ascension, the shift. Lots of people are talking about
it now, but her work goes all the way back
into the early two thousands and late nineties where she
was getting information about I call it the spiritual evolution

(11:49):
of the Earth as a sentient being and what's going
on on the face of the Earth now. So that
was Three Waves of Volunteers in the New Earth. But
just her work spans just vast, vast areas of metaphysics
and spirituality, but all of it coming directly from this deep,
deep trance state. And it was only in the early

(12:12):
two thousands that she figured out that you could you
could manifest physical healing through this connection to the higher self,
to what she called the the subconscious, but not the
subconscious in the way that that clinicians or psychologists would
would use that term. It's the soul, it's the it's

(12:34):
the true nature of the self that she's connecting with.
And we can do all sorts of physical healing in
that state.

Speaker 3 (12:44):
Well, you know it's interesting too, you know your your
access during hypnosis passage, but also I guess when you're
in a hypnotic state and you're sinking deep, it's almost
impossible not to put yourself in touch with your higher
divine self, which is where the true spiritual nature of this.

Speaker 2 (13:05):
Comes exactly exactly, And and so what's what's important I
think about q H h T. The first h healing
is that almost all of our physical situations, and that's
what we call them. We don't call them illness or disease,
they're just physical experiences. But let's say things like autoimmune diseases, cancer,

(13:31):
all sorts of situations, invariably there are messages from the
higher Self that are trying to push us in a
different direction on our path. And once we can find
out the purpose the reason for that situation, and and
you know, and and and then enact that reason, that

(13:53):
purpose in our life, then we don't need the situation anymore,
you know. So So for an example, I had a
client in here just recently that was experiencing stage four
breast cancer, and the higher self told her that it
was And she was a young woman, a youngish woman

(14:13):
in her early forties. Her children were grown, but still
she had a lot of life left to live. And
the higher self told her that the reason she was
having that experience was because she needed to nurture herself.
It was time in her life for her to spend
on her She had given to everybody else, and she

(14:35):
was given the gift of this experience with stage four
breast cancer. The higher self doesn't see it as a tragedy, right,
that for her to get to know herself, for her
to spend time on herself, and that was the message,
and she was actually starting to do that. Now did

(14:55):
her Did she spontaneously go into remission from breast can
answer in the office, no, because if she didn't start
spending the time on herself, then she continued to need
the message. And so the higher self told her very clearly,
plain as day in the QHHD session that once she

(15:16):
started devoting herself to herself, then the cancer would go
into emission. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (15:21):
Wow, that's amazing. And you know, I think most people
have absolutely no clue that these hidden things deep in
our subconscious feelings of guilt in shame and whatever and
lack of worthiness, on and on and on, actually create

(15:41):
those blockages in our energy and our system and our
body system and causes physical maladies. And you know, I mean, well,
let's just go take a pill. I mean, yeah, you
can take a pill if you want. But that's where
the source of all these illnesses and even injuries come from.

Speaker 2 (15:58):
Absolutely well. And Taurs was so ahead of her time
because in the early two thousands she named this quantum
healing hypnosis technique because that we're operating in the quantum
field and this you know, this body isn't solid, right,
It's nothing but a coalescing of quantum particles, right everything

(16:23):
in our reality. Scientists know this, physicists know this, right,
They've proven this over and over again. So my body
isn't even isn't even solid. All it is is energy,
and an energy manifest in a specific dimension at a
specific time, in a specific place, and once we can
understand that anything, any of that energy can be reprogrammed, manipulated, remanifested,

(16:52):
and that and that it is a manifestation in the
in a field for a purpose, for a spiritual purpose.
Once we understand that spiritual purpose, then then this manifestation
of this conglomeration of quantum particles can be reoriented anyway

(17:12):
we want to.

Speaker 3 (17:14):
Yeah. I love knowing that. Yeah, and it is amazing,
you know, Holly, For a moment, I'd like to go
back and focus on you and correct me if I'm wrong.
I thought this. I read on your website, on your
bio that your current career came through a personal tragedy.
Is that true? What happened? Is that what you to

(17:36):
become who you are today?

Speaker 2 (17:38):
Yeah, And I honestly, Carl and you probably find this.
I think that's true for most people that are on
a spiritual path, that have focused a lot of time
on their own spiritual development. We often come to this
through tragedy. But I had I started life. My bachelor's
degree is in mechanical engineering.

Speaker 3 (17:59):
Oh yeah, a little different.

Speaker 2 (18:02):
So I started. I spent the first twenty twenty five
years of my career and very technical mechanical industrial manufacturing
situations in the automotive industry and aerospace industry, and as
my kids were getting older, I was in a situation
where I wanted to go back to school and get
my PhD and was trying to decide. I ended up

(18:26):
realizing as an engineer that most of the problems in
industry were caused by the humans, not the machines. So
I had an interest in psychology, but not knowing where
it was going to lead me. So I was already
finished really with my PhD in psychology in twenty ten,
and was doing some work with mainly Jungian analysis, but

(18:49):
also still in the corporate world, doing things like leadership
development and executive coaching and that kind of thing. In
in twenty twelve, the end of twenty twelve, my son,
who was twenty years old at the time, twenty twenty

(19:09):
one years old at the time, he was arrested for
DUI and it was a situation where I couldn't visit him.
I couldn't see him. I could only have these rare
conversations with him, and I was a nervous rack, you know,
pacing the floor, pulling my hair out, you know, just really,
really tragic situation. He was in a very dangerous situation

(19:32):
and I couldn't really help him. And in one of
those rare phone calls, he says to me, he says, hey, Mom,
I found this book in jail. I think you'd really
like it. And it was Convoluted Universe, Book four by
Delores Cannon. I'd never heard of her before, would never
have heard of her. And I started, you know, see Amazon,
click click get the book to have a chat, be

(19:54):
able to have a chat with my son. And I
start reading this book, Carl and everything I'd ever believed
my life, and there it is in print. I had
never seen it in print before. And I just started
devouring her books. And then my son and I. So
he gets he spent twenty one days in jail. He's
doing great now, he's a really great kid now, not

(20:15):
a kid, he's thirty four now. But so he got
out in December. In January, she was going to be
having a weekend seminar and Dolores would do these three
day seminars and she'd do her hypnosis, like she'd have
two hundred people in a ballroom and put them into
hypnosis simultaneously. And it's really something to see. And the

(20:38):
whole time, I'm thinking this hypnosis. I'm so left brain,
I'm so analytical. I'm thinking this hypnosis stuff is not
going to work on me. But I had so much
respect for her, her research. I had research questions for
so anyway, of course, we go to the in January,
we go to the seminar, you know, healing from healing

(21:00):
from my son, you know, respect for Dolores. And of
course we go into the first journey, which was a
past life regression, and I'm I'm in I'm in this
other life first person, Carl. I could smell the bacon
in this other woman's life. No, And I mean it's
just crazy, crazy stuff. And so I'm like, oh my gosh,
this works, this really really works. So that was in

(21:22):
January and February I was in training. I never looked back.
I'm like, oh, oh, I get it. This is powerful.
This is so much more powerful than what I've been
practicing in my in my psychology practice, so much more powerful.
So I never looked back. And that was That was
February of twenty thirteen.

Speaker 3 (21:41):
So yeah, that's well, that's an incredible story. Wow, your
true mom, your son's in jail. You're pulling your hair out.
You're a true mom, but glad to hear everything's great.
But that is so amazing that you got to work
one on one with Dolores Cannon. I know she's kind
of and correct me if I'm wrong on this too.

(22:03):
She's kind of the female version of Edgar case somewhat
in the sort of.

Speaker 2 (22:10):
But she was very clear because you know Edgar Casey
channeled himself, right, I mean he channeled, he was a channel.
Dolris was not a channel. She claimed that, you know,
she was not even really she didn't even claim to
be like spiritually gifted in any way psychic or anything
like that. She called herself a researcher of lost knowledge,

(22:35):
and she really did see herself as using hypnosis for research.
And all of her early books if you read them carefully,
and I think it's really important to understand Dolores's twenty
one books chronologically because you can see how she grew
over the years. But her early books, that Jesus books
were early books and Nostradamus books were early books. She

(22:58):
was very careful to corroborate what was found in hypnosis
with like archaeological evidence or other documentation and evidence. She
was really into that and she was very very careful
in her research to do that.

Speaker 3 (23:16):
Yeah, so she was a researcher too. That's very cool. Well,
you know, let's go to you. You're talking about Dolores
Cannon's book. Now, let's find out about your book trilogy,
the Finding trilogy of books. Well, let's see. Number one
is Finding Purpose Surprising was the high number two, Finding

(23:37):
Forgiveness Surprising healing from the Higher Self? And finally your
newest version of Finding Gratitude Surprising growth from the Higher Self.
How did these books come about?

Speaker 2 (23:48):
Yeah? So the first one I didn't know it was
going to be a trilogy, because if the Higher Self
had told me it was going to be a trilogy,
I probably wouldn't have even written the first one, aw
I would have been scared off. But Finding Purpose I
wrote shortly after I started QTHT. I became fascinated with

(24:10):
how the questions were similar client to client to client,
and almost everybody had this question the top of their list,
what is my life purpose? And then second on the list,
what is my life lesson? What am I here to learn?
And then third on the list, how do I commune
with the Higher Self like after the session, how do
I how do I awaken my own spiritual connections? And

(24:33):
so it fascinated me how the questions were the same.
And then what really fascinated fascinated me was how the
answers were the same, person to person to person of course,
people not knowing each other. So that book is a
compilation of over four hundred sessions and the answers to

(24:53):
what is my life lesson, what is my life purpose?
And how do I commune with the Higher Self? So
that's what that one's about. And then after that was written,
then the Higher sale came in and went, we got
another one for you, And so the three books then
together become like a spiritual growth stepping stones. Okay, so

(25:15):
the first is purpose. Everybody needs to know that they
have a purpose, that they're here for a mission, that
there is a very specific intention for every single person
for this incarnation. And then once you know that, there's
so much tension released, there's so many fewer questions because

(25:37):
then you can focus in on what that incarnate purpose is.
So the second book, then Finding Forgiveness. I started seeing
how the Higher Self was doing all of this healing,
and I mean physical healing, fibromyalga, rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn's disease, cancer,

(25:59):
all of these things they were they were creating the
healing space through a process of forgiveness. And so then
in working with a higher self, I began to understand
how important forgiveness is to our physical healing, to or

(26:20):
to being operating in a healed state. And of course,
being the left brain analytical person that I am, when
I started, I started seeing the patterns that the higher
self was using in the way that they processed forgiveness.
And I started going out and looking just from a
pure psychological standpoint, well, how do you forgive? What is

(26:42):
the forgiveness process? What's the recipe? Everybody tells you you
need to forgive, Nobody tells you how to forgive? What
is how do you forgive? And realizing there's nothing out there.
Everybody tells you you need to forgive, Nobody tells you
how to forgive. Not even in the Bible it says
you you know that you should forgive. But even in

(27:03):
the Bible, there's no recipe, there's no directions of how
to forgive. So that book is a four step process
that the higher self gifted me of how to forgive.
It's how to, it's how to book on forgiveness, and
so we have to we have to think about forgiving others,
we have to think about receiving forgiveness, and most importantly,

(27:25):
we have to think about how to forgive ourselves. So
there's three kinds of forgiveness, and then in each of
those kinds of forgiveness, there's four steps to see except
release and move, And so the Higher Self is very
specific about what each of those steps mean in any

(27:46):
sort of situation that needs forgiveness. And so that's what
that whole book is about. Is then each of those
four steps, how do you actually perform it? How do
you actually do it for yourself? So lots and lots
of how to from the Higher Self. So once we
know our purpose, our mission, and now we're moving forward

(28:06):
in a healed state. The third book came about and
so it's finding, finding gratitude, surprising growth from the Higher Self.
And this one kind of blew my mind. So in
conversation in a session, I started realizing, so over the years,

(28:26):
people have gotten more and more elegant or more sophisticated
excuse me, or deeper in their questions. Right. I think
as the collective awakens and becomes more aware, we've all
collectively gotten more spiritual depth and have deeper questions. And

(28:49):
so I started seeing this pattern with client questions around
spiritual growth. So, how do I help my spiritual growth?
What do I need to do for spiritual GWth growth?
I know I'm here for in purpose, I'm in a
healed state. Let's make this Let's ring all of the
juice out of this incarnation, right, Let's make sure it really,

(29:11):
it really makes an impact on my soul's growth. And
so as I started to get into conversation with a
higher self about this, So, how do we make the
best of our soul's growth? You know? How do we
show up? And because that's what we're here for. All
of us in incarnation are here to help our soul grow.
Our souls are not omnipotent. God is, our soul isn't.

(29:35):
And we're here for growth. We're here for experience. And
what I've found from the higher self is that how
we show up to our life is what accelerates and
amplifies the ability for the soul to grow through this incarnation.
And that state of being is a state of being ingratitude.

(29:57):
And so every moment we spend in our lif lives
living in a state of gratitude. So gratitude is not
something you journal at night. You know a lot of
us have gratitude journals. But that's not what they're talking about,
you know, or blessing your food before we eat it,
you know, Thanksgiving and that kind of thing. That's not
the gratitude that they're talking about. They're talking about the

(30:18):
vibrational frequency that is living the state of gratitude. And
when we live in that way every minute of every day,
our soul is accelerated in its growth and can gain
so much more out of the incarnation than when we're
shut down in a lower vibration frequency.

Speaker 3 (30:39):
Wow, I love that description of gratitude. Perfect. But yeah,
I believe you have your books right there.

Speaker 2 (30:49):
Yeah, so yeah, so finding purpose. So this is the
first The Higher Self does recommend you read them in order,
because they're stepping stones. Right. If you're sitting there in
a quandary wondering, well, why am I even here and
does any of this matter? Then then the other two
books are not going to be as meaningful. So first
you need to know why you're here, and there's a why. Okay,

(31:10):
there is a why for everybody. Then there's finding. Then
you got to heal, finding, forgiveness, surprising healing. How do
we heal through forgiveness? And I mean I don't just
mean healing your heart. I mean healing even your physical
body can happen through forgiveness. And everybody tells you you
need to forgive, and nobody nobody tells you how. So

(31:32):
this is the how to unforgiveness. So once you're healed,
then what do I do for soul growth? How do
I make sure that I'm really reaping the rewards at
the soul level for this incarnation? And it's about finding gratitude.
It's about living in the vibrational frequency that is gratitude.

Speaker 3 (31:51):
Yeah. So yeah, the Finding Trilogy by doctor Holly Dunkworth.
You know I love that so purpose and for me
I have found is I've gotten a tiny bit older.
Now the older I get, I realize, you know what
am I doing? You know, you come to a point
where you realize there there must be a purpose I'm

(32:14):
here and so you know, even just doing this show
has helped me to realize that I'm a facilitator of
this new knowledge, this new understanding, and it's my purpose
and I do that just in my daily life talking
to people and everything. And then forgiveness as me as
a long time of course in miracles student, what you

(32:37):
see behind me here, forgiveness is one of the main
teachings of it. You know, forgiveness is as the world
practices forgiveness. It's kind of like you always say I
forgive you, but you know that person saying I forgive
you is still up here with the awareness that oh
you're well, I forgive you, but you're still guilty, you know,

(32:58):
and true what quantum forgiveness are just true forgiveness. You
know it's gone, you know it really never even happened,
and it really lifts a weight off your shoulders. And
then finally gratitude. One of my wonderful past guests and
now my colleague in this what I do, Elenny Eyombolis.

(33:21):
She has an amazing story. She lives in New Jersey.
She's turned in an amazing coach herself. Years ago, she
was in a bad marriage and abused and she escaped
and she ended up living in her in She and
she could have gone off the deep end and committed
suicide or something. But she started a gratitude journal and

(33:43):
then it expanded into wait, you know, there's more to this.
And after doing that consistently and staying in that state
of gratitude, which she said raises your energy and your
higher self, she be came a huge success, traveling the world,
doing things and teaching. Yeah, so what a beautiful trilogy.

Speaker 2 (34:05):
And I think and I love that story, Carl, because
gratitude isn't about well, the world has to be all
kittens and rainbows before I feel gratitude. Right, we can
have gratitude, especially in moments of challenge and moments of tragedy,
because you know, we have the gift of life, We

(34:25):
have the gift of even having the ability to have
that that tragedy in that challenge. So it's not just
about recording the good times. It's about, really, what are
you going to focus your experience on even when it's super,
super tough. And it sounds like she did that, Lenny

(34:47):
did that.

Speaker 3 (34:47):
Yeah, absolutely well. And you know, the world right now,
as we know it is seemingly increasingly chaotic and insane.
So these things that you're talking about, people can just
grab them and use them as tools to live a happier,
uh less fearful life.

Speaker 2 (35:09):
Yeah, absolutely, absolutely, Yeah, they're also all three of the
books are just chock full of session client session stories
and and of course all anonymized, but understanding where my
clients come from, you know, and they're they're coming into
their sessions having lived a life and having had lots

(35:31):
of challenges, and it's and so I share the very
specific words that the Higher Self gave them to help
them understand and unpack these challenges. You know, even going
back to my origin story with Dolores my son and
now I now laugh and he says, you know, he's like, hey, moll,
you know the only reason I had to go to
jail was so you could meet Dolores. And I know,

(35:53):
thank you, thank you, thank you. You know. So even
with tragedies like that, we can see the importance of
that with a state of gratitude.

Speaker 3 (36:05):
Yeah, amazing, and it's so true. Of course, you have
your own practice in Durango, Colorado, where you live, and
I see that besides doing QHHT, you also practice something
that's described as non invasive listening therapy for subconscious healing.
What is that?

Speaker 2 (36:25):
Yeah, it's a therapy called Safe and Sound protocol, which
was created by doctor Stephen Porgis, and doctor Porgis is
kind of the father of polyvagel theory. Polyvagel theory just
studies the vagus nerve, which is one of the largest
nerve systems in our body. And what happens is, especially

(36:49):
in modern life, our physiology, this is physiology, not psychology,
gets kind of hijacked and we get stuck. Nervous system
gets stuck in a state of fight or flight or
even worse freeze and sees just based upon just all
the stressors and the traumas that come at us in

(37:12):
living the kind of life we need now. And so
what very frequently happens is then this isn't exactly how
it works, but it's an analogy. Our ability to go
into a nervous system state that we would refer to
as rest and digest it kind of atrophies. We lose
that ability. We get so patterned into fight or flight

(37:35):
that our body loses the ability to go back into
a truly RESTful state. And so this listening therapy, you
just listen for a few minutes a day to music
to music with over the ear headphones there's actually a
vegus nerve stimulator inside the music that sends your body

(37:56):
into this rest and digest nervous system state. I kind
of say it's like going to the gym for your
nervous system and just amazing, amazing results I've been I've
been providing this therapy for a couple of years now,
and just all sorts of healing from things like social anxiety, depression,

(38:20):
general anxiety, grief, stroke, you know, retuning the nervous system
after stroke, UH alls, all sorts of trauma recovery. And
that's that's trauma with a big tea and trauma with
a little tea. Work with a lot of UH neurodivergent

(38:43):
people and autistic kids because the world is traumatic for them,
and so this listening therapy just it it retunes your body.
It restores the body's ability to be able to get
out of that path turned fight or flight or freezeency's
nervous system response. It's really amazing.

Speaker 3 (39:05):
Now that that non invasive listening therapy is. Is that
something that maybe you like have an MP three people
can access on your website, or do they have to
work one on one with you to do it?

Speaker 2 (39:17):
So it's a subscription to the music that they would
get access through me, and then we have a handful
of therapy sessions just to get the trick is the
right dose of music, So we got it. The first
few weeks, I work with the client very closely to
make sure that we've got the right dose of music.
We want enough to push the nervous system or to

(39:39):
stretch the nervous system, but not so much to push
the nervous system. So we got to work really closely
in those first three weeks, and then it's a sixteen
week program and then they listen independently in their own
home every day. My dose is run between thirty seconds
a day, which is usually my autistic kids all way

(40:00):
up to a maximum dose of fifteen minutes a day.
And most people do it right before they go to
sleep because it puts you into that rest and digest
and most people are like after they do their listening
and uh and so yeah, you do that every night.
Then in the privacy of your own home, just on
with an app on your phone.

Speaker 3 (40:18):
Yeah, what's your website.

Speaker 2 (40:21):
So it's aware care Durango dot com A W A
R E C A R E d U R a
n g O dot com, Aware care Durango dot com.
There's lots of lots and lots of information videos from
doctor Porges. Doctor Porgis also works very closely with gaber Mate.
A lot of your listeners might have heard about gaber

(40:43):
Mate and they have very similar, uh philosophies about trauma
and the recovery of trauma. And yeah, this has proven
to be a really, really amazing therapy.

Speaker 3 (40:55):
Yeah, you know, it's so funny you mentioned his name.
I hadn't thought of him for a while. Who who
exactly has gave Monte because it seems to me he's
very well known within the in the spiritual and earth world.

Speaker 2 (41:09):
Yeah, he has some different ideas, So here's an example
of one, and I've and I've witnessed this in my practice,
so I kind of align with his philosophies. But he's
he's a psychologist, neuroscientist, and who experienced a lot of
tragedy in his own youth. He was in war torn

(41:30):
he grew up in Hungary during the war and experienced
trauma in his own early life and so had personal
experience with that and then went on to study trauma
and the psychology and the psychiatry of that, and his
concern is his primary concern is our current field of

(41:52):
psychology does a lot of work to cluster behaviors into
certain diagnoses without doing a fantastic job of understanding the
nexus of those clusters of behaviors. And one of those
that I really align with with with gaber Mate is

(42:15):
doctor Monte is ADHD. And so psychologists are trained easily
and quickly using diagnostic tools to diagnose ADHD Attention deficit
hyperactivity disorder. People that are that have an inability to

(42:36):
finish tasks, pay attention to tasks, they're easily distracted, and
find it very challenging to rest, to be in a
RESTful state. In gaber Monte's philosophy on this is that
it isn't a diagnosis in and of itself ADHD. What
ADHD actually is is a symptom of trauma that we're

(42:57):
actually seeing a symptom of a trauma response. And if
we treat the ADHD, which we often do with things
like Riddlin and pharmaceuticals which do help, absolutely help, but
they're treating the symptom right, It's like it's like taking
an aspirin for a headache, but the headache is actually

(43:19):
being caused by dehydration. Be much better off drinking, you know,
a half gallon of water take you rid the headache
than take the aspirin, right, because you're just treating the
symptom and not the root cause. And so when we
give people pharmaceuticals to help with the ADHD, it helps.
But what it does is it helps the symptom and
it doesn't treat the root cost, which is the trauma response.

(43:42):
And when we say trauma, trauma doesn't have to mean
that you had some sort of horrible physical violence. You know,
that you were physically abused or something. The birth process
itself can create trauma in our nervous system. Most of
our trauma is pre verbal, meaning it was how our

(44:02):
body responded to the world before we were two. Okay,
so you don't have to have you don't have to
have been in a war or have had some sort
of physical violence for your nervous system to be responding
to a traumatic experience. And so that's so then doctor
Porgies's work with polyvagel theory and the Safe and Sound

(44:25):
Protocol is then a therapy for the trauma, and then
the trauma once we treat the trauma, then symptoms like
ADHD can then be resolved.

Speaker 3 (44:35):
Yeah, yeah, some beautiful, beautiful information. Thank you. Of course
we are talking to doctor Holly Duckworth of Durango, Colorado,
psychotherapist and a QHHT practitioner. Some incredible information. Back on
the show again after three years, and glad to have
you here. You know, and I know you kind of

(44:57):
touched on some of this a little bit, but you
know you've experienced and seen some miraculous healings over the years. Now,
are there any other ones that stand out that you
might be able to tell us that you've doing the.

Speaker 2 (45:11):
Q one of my favorite sessions to talk about because
a lot of a lot of clients will say, oh,
they'll have They'll have a fantastic session. They'll go, oh,
I want my brother to do this, but he doesn't
believe in past lives. And I'm like, you don't have
to believe in past lives. You don't have to believe
in metaphysics, you don't have to believe in any of
this anything like that. Any woo woo for any this

(45:34):
to work. And so I had this client many this
goes back many years ago, and is there so many
fascinating things about this session. It was an elder gentleman
who was sent to me by his son. And his
son is an m D. And dad had a recurrence

(45:55):
of bladder cancer and they he had already been through
all of the chemo and everything. The first time. The
cancer went into remission for a few years, but it
came back and so rather than go through all the
chemo again, his MD son sent his dad to a
Qaht session for healing. Oh wow, his dad. Him and

(46:16):
his dad are devout Muslims originally from Pakistan. They aren't
into the wu Okay, they're very, very devoted to their
Islamic practice. And his dad comes in, we have a
wonderful Qhht session. He was one of these people who

(46:37):
some people their conscious mind is not aware when they're
in deep hypnosis. Most people their conscious mind is aware.
But this gentleman, his conscious mind was not aware, so
he didn't know what happened during the session and immediately,
but they I knew that they had healed his cancer.
And so I wake him up after two or three hours,

(46:59):
and you know, getting all of his questions answered, and
he says, you know, right after waking you might want
to go to the restroom, you know, you know, let's
have a snack and then we can talk about the
answers to your questions. And so he leaves the office
to go to the restroom and and he bursts back in,
like he slams the door open, and he goes, what happened?

(47:22):
What happened? And I'm like, they healed you, because I
mean it was a bladder cancer. And so before the
session he had a problem going to the restroom, and
then immediately after the session he had no problem going
to the restroom, and freaked him out went to the
restroom because he didn't know what had happened. And so anyway,

(47:43):
I just I love that story because number one, the
MD sent him to me, the devout Muslim, did not
believe in past lives or anything associated with that. And
then instantaneous cure of a recurrence of bladder cancer. And
so it was just kind of fun because that his
son still sends me clients from their city today.

Speaker 3 (48:07):
Wow. Wow, that's a great story. I love it. Yeah,
So you don't.

Speaker 2 (48:12):
Have to believe in any of it. Just let it go,
just let it flow, let the session happen.

Speaker 3 (48:17):
Well, well, Holly we're gonna wind up here in a
little bit, but I've just got a couple more questions
for you. You're also described as an existential therapist.

Speaker 4 (48:27):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (48:28):
Does that work?

Speaker 2 (48:29):
Yeah, So that's the kind of talk therapy that I do.
So existential therapy is focused on the four existential fears.
And a lot of our psychological challenges come about because
there's a fear that we need to face that we're
being asked to face, and we're doing other kinds of

(48:52):
coping mechanisms to ignore it or run away from it.
And once we face that fear, then there's a gift
on the other side of the fear. So the four
existential fears are the fear of death, the fear of meaninglessness,
the fear of isolation, and the fear of unmet obligation. Okay,

(49:14):
and if I look at all of those fears, so
I work with people to kind of everyone's going to
face these fears, that's why they're called existential. Every human
will face all four of these fears multiple times throughout
our lives at different periods of time. So my talk
therapy is focused on helping people understand which of those
fears is coming at them at the moment and helping
them walk through that fear, not ignore it, not run

(49:37):
away from it, but face it. And then there's a
gift on the other side of it when we face it.
So the gift in the fear of death is an
appreciation of life. The gift in the fear of meaninglessness
is purpose, the gift in the fear of isolation is connection.
And the gift in the fear of unmet obligation is freedom.

(50:01):
And so I work with people to get to understand
these fears, to face these fears, to see how these
fears are arising in their life, and then to walk
through the fear to receive the gift. So that's what
existential therapy is.

Speaker 3 (50:15):
Wow, just more beautiful, beautiful information there. And of course
there are certain buzzwords these days, like quantum, you know.
I mean, Dolorus Cannon was way ahead of her time
using it. But quantum is like a new age buzzword,
a new world buzzword. But so is the word spirituality,

(50:37):
you know, And it's a big thing in my life.
I mean, what is your definition of the word spirituality
itself and what role does it play in your own life?

Speaker 2 (50:46):
Yeah, so the literal definition of spirit is the unseen
mm okay, And so spirituality is just connecting to the unseen.
And when you start to and I love that you
connected that with quantum because all of the things we
see aren't actually real, but there are real things that

(51:09):
we don't see. Right. So if I think about the
chair I'm sitting in, you know, it's nothing but quantum particles, right,
And not even particles, it's quantum energy. You know. They
keep they keep smashing atoms together to get to the
smaller and smaller piece looking for the thing, and there's
never anything. All they find is energy. So the chair,

(51:31):
the very chair I'm sitting in that's holding me up
against gravity, that feels as solid as a rock, is
nothing but energy. And our physicists know this, right, lots
and lots and lots of experiments to prove it. So
what we think is solid isn't. And then we have

(51:53):
all of these spirit guides at angels and councils and
access to higher self that is unseen, but it's just
as real as the chair that I'm sitting in that
isn't solid, right. And so when we open ourselves up
to the fact that what I perceive is just a perception,

(52:17):
and I can open up that perception to a whole
lot more than what I think is solid around me,
that what I'm pretending is solid around me, Then my
entire world can open up to just be so much richer,
so much more healed, and I can have so much
more gratitude for it.

Speaker 3 (52:37):
You know what I like about you is your passion
for what you do is very apparent and I love that.
And not only you, but your clients benefit from your
passion on it. And wow, my chair has got particles
smashing against each other.

Speaker 2 (52:53):
No, not even just energy spinning.

Speaker 3 (52:57):
And you know everything you said is so im align
with my studies of a course in miracles that says
true reality is in the on scene realm, and that
what we're experiencing here as as a spiritual being having
a human experience is an illusion or a dream and
it's just energy. So but now there we go. Enough said, Uh,

(53:19):
but anyway, Holly, tell us again, what is your website?
What is the best way for people to connect with you?
And can they get your books there too?

Speaker 2 (53:30):
Yes, absolutely so. I sell the whole trilogy cheaper than Amazon,
So go to my website. But there the all three
books are available on Amazon, Kindle and Audible in all
the ways. My website is Awarecare durango dot com, a
W A R E c A R E d U
r A n g O dot com. All my services

(53:52):
are there, all sorts of information about all the services
we just talked about, Carl, And then I'd love to
connect on Instagram and you so Instagram. It's just Aware
Care on Instagram and YouTube. It's at Holly Duckworth, PhD.
And so I have a membership group on YouTube where

(54:15):
we do every month, we meet on YouTube and we
do an authentic Dolores Canon group regression together for the members.
So if you want to experience doors Cannon is four
dollars and ninety nine cents a month, let's than a
cup of coffee nowadays, and you can experience an authentic
Dolores Canon hypnosis regression every month.

Speaker 3 (54:38):
And all those links so well, I have show notes
that go with this show and just amazing, Doctor Holland
Duckworth's glad to have you back on World Awakenness. Thank
you for all the beautiful things you do.

Speaker 2 (54:50):
Thank you, Carl. We'll do it. We'll do it more
frequently than every three years. How about that.

Speaker 1 (55:09):
This has been another episode of World Awakenings, The Fast
Track to Enlightenment with host Carl Gruber, a certified Law
of Attraction life coach. We welcome you to tune in
