Do not write anything manually; use "Fields".

There exists a lot of predefined markers, and therefore you seldom need 
to set bookmarks manually.

After you have used Insert -> Footnote/Endnote your Cursor is in the 
footnote area. Now use Insert -> Field -> More Fields... -> tab "Cross 
references". In your case you need the Type "Headings".

In the part "Selection" select the heading for which you will enter a 
reference. In the part "Insert reference to" you can select what 
information of the referenced heading will be shown. In your case you 
need to insert the reference three times, each with a different 
information. First use "Number" to get "6.4.2", second use "Reference" 
to get "Sessions Highlights", and third use "Page" to get "47".

All will update automatically, if you made changes in the text, for 
example change the wording of the heading or insert/delete text parts 
which will affect the number or page.

Kind regards
Regina
