Dolores Cannon (1931–2014) was a pioneering hypnotherapist, author, and metaphysical researcher who developed the Quantum Healing Hypnosis Technique (QHHT®). Over five decades, she worked with thousands of clients, uncovering profound insights into past lives, healing, consciousness, extraterrestrial contact, and the nature of reality.
Early Life & Hypnotherapy Journey
Born in St. Louis, Missouri, Dolores spent the early years of her life as a devoted Navy wife and mother of four. In the 1960s, she and her husband began experimenting with hypnotherapy, initially focusing on traditional uses like habit control. However, her work took a groundbreaking turn when she discovered a way to guide clients into the deepest level of hypnosis—the Somnambulistic state, where they could access their Higher Self and retrieve vast amounts of knowledge.
The Birth of QHHT®
Dolores refined her hypnosis method into what is now called Quantum Healing Hypnosis Technique (QHHT®), a process that allows clients to access their Subconscious (Higher Self) to receive guidance, healing, and clarity on their life’s purpose. Through her sessions, clients often recalled past lives, connected with higher consciousness, and even described other dimensions and parallel realities.
Author & Metaphysical Explorer
Dolores documented her discoveries in over 20 books, covering topics like past life regression, extraterrestrials, time travel, lost civilisations, and the shift to a New Earth. Her most well-known works include:
The Convoluted Universe series – exploring the vast mysteries of existence and how the world as we know it was created
Conversations with Nostradamus Trilogy: her clients became conduits for translations of his original quatrains
The Three Waves of Volunteers and The New Earth – detailing the souls incarnating on Earth to assist humanity’s evolution
Jesus and the Essenes – uncovering the lost history of Jesus through past-life regression
Her books have been translated into 20+ languages and are read worldwide.
Her Legacy
In 1992, Dolores founded Ozark Mountain Publishing to publish her works and those of other metaphysical authors. She also traveled the world teaching QHHT® and training thousands of practitioners, ensuring that her healing method would continue beyond her lifetime.
Dolores Cannon passed away in 2014, but her work, teachings, and QHHT® technique continue to inspire and transform lives across the globe. For more information on her earlier life and the life changing moment that led to her involvement in hypnotherapy, see here for more.
