Most regression sessions include just two people: experiencer and the facilitator. Typically, a session is scheduled in advance, to last 1-1/2 hours. The session begins with discussion, which is followed by regression. During these individual sessions, the experiencer and facilitator talk frequently about what is happening, so that guidance can be tailored to the specific person and what he or she is experiencing at the moment. These events are often highly emotional, so the facilitator ideally will be a well-trained hypnotist who can help maximize the healing potential of these experiences. Following the regression, some time is usually set aside to "process" the experience, again to maximize its potential benefits.
