Your Psychic Space:
Trance Testamonies
The following are testimonies written by the students in the
various Trance Classes at the Academy For Psychic Studies, in
California, USA. These are their own subjective experiences.
When I Was A Child
Anne Marie
When I was a child my friend and I would write coded messages to
each other. To read these notes we would hold them up to a mirror
because our code was to write backwards.
I've always felt like Alice in Wonderland, as if I fell down a
hole and everything in the world was backwards. In trance it is as if
I am holding up a mirror and I can clearly decode what is the truth.
In class I've released past time energies on relationships, and
generational and former religious influences, but sometimes the
change is so subtle that I do not notice the effect immediately. Just
recently at work I was helping an employee over the telephone who was
invalidating me. I felt fear and anger, and the caller became
intimidating. I blew roses and there was an immediate change in the
tone of the conversation. In the past, because I would not have
noticed those emotions, they would have stayed with me. Now, I have
more say so in how I experience my life.
Trance is my mirror, a reflection of truth and the path home.
Phenomenal Trance
Sherry Kirschner
I had an extraordinary experience in a trance session recently.
Rev. Bill was guiding our class into a very relaxed state of being
and mind. I had a long day and dozed off, not realizing I had done
so. All of a sudden I heard Rev. Bill saying to me directly, "Sherry,
you are now going from sleep into a deep hypnotic trance. You are
wide awake but you can't wake up." (??) Instantaneously my eyes
opened and then closed immediately. I was wide awake and in the
deepest most relaxed trance state I have ever been in. I was acutely
aware of the vastness of the center of my head and what infinity was
all about. Not a muscle in my body wanted to move. The relaxation was
extraordinary. Of course, I knew I could come out of this whenever I
wanted to and did a bit later, but now all I could do was laugh and
be free. Rev. Bill told me, while in this state that I was in a
somnambulistic state. I never understood hypnotic principles until
that night when it was made real for my body. The healing was
phenomenal.
Getting Over Fear of Flying
Margaret Langry
I love to travel, visit exotic places and meet new people. I've
clocked a couple of hundred hours jetting around the world. However,
unfortunately I am afraid of flying. Most of my flights are 10 to 12
hours, non-stop. I suffer motion sickness and claustrophobia. I want
to open a window and breathe fresh air. The hardest part is turning
over my control to a pilot I don't know. I want to fly that plane.
Also, I often return home sick after a flight. After my first trip, I
came home with a fever of 104 degrees.
Recently my husband and I made plans to travel to Europe for the
first time. I've wanted to visit Paris my whole life. We got tickets
for a charter flight, 10-1/2 hours, non-stop from Oakland to Paris.
Before our trip I did a trance session with Rev. Debi Livingston
about my phobia. During our session she ran me through the whole
scenario of the flight and created relaxation and stress reduction
techniques. She taped that segment so that I could listen to it
during the flight.
Finally our big day came and my husband and I set off on our Grand
European Adventure. I sucked on some ginger to ease the nausea and
listened to my tape. Boy, did I enjoy that flight. Any time I felt
claustrophobic or nervous during bouts of turbulence I'd listen to
the tape and practice the techniques. I had my own energy running
through my space. I felt great when we reached our destination and I
suffered no jet lag.
The return trip didn't start out as smoothly. We seemed to hit
more turbulence and I had forgotten the ginger for nausea. Then, an
hour into the flight, my batteries ran out as I was listening to my
tape and my replacement batteries were in my suitcase in the belly of
the plane. Needless to say, my anxiety level skyrocketed. My heart
started banging against my chest. I wanted off that plane!! Then I
took a deep breath and went into my psychic space. I began releasing
energy and practiced my techniques. I ran my own energy through my
body. I had amusement flowing, too. Soon I began enjoying my flight
again, free of anxiety. When we arrived in Oakland, I felt refreshed
and happy to be home.
The Pleasure of Being a Woman
Kathy Bibeau
For many years I have experienced very uncomfortable menstrual
cycles. They were so bad that I was in the habit of getting anxious
whenever that "time of the month" was due to come around, feeling
that I just couldn't handle going through it another time.
Rev. Bill worked with me a few times, facilitating a trance state
and making the suggestions that I would experience my menstrual cycle
as pleasurable, and that my feminity would flow and feel validated
within my body. After these trance exercises I would find myself
doubting that it would work. My past experience just kept coming up
in my face and saying "No way you can have this." However, when my
cycle came I just amazed myself. It was a pleasant experience,
nothing at all like what I had been experiencing for years. This just
blew my mind - my conscious mind, that is. It could not understand
what was happening and yet bodies don't lie. I felt so validated by
this and am very enthusiastic to work more and more with trance.
Healing Female Addiction
Ann McKinley
I had an incredible experience while on the trance retreat at Lake
Tahoe. During one of the sessions, foreign energy was being cleared
out of my space having to do with relationships. I had been feeling
uncertain about myself and my information; and as the trance sessions
progressed, these feelings were fading in and out.
The feelings were making me doubt whether I was in trance, and
doubt what I was doing with my life. During the session, we were
directed to put our attention on the Supreme Being's presense in
ourselves and others, until we could experience the common thread of
His life running through us.
As this happenned, a whole set of pictures played like a filmclip
in my head, flashing like a stack of cards being shuffled. I saw a
picture of my marriage which was ending, and I saw that my husband
was in the center of my head, hiding in my space, because he did not
want to be responsible for himself.
I saw the effect that this had on my space... It was like I was on
pause... frozen in time and space... my energy locked down. With his
energy in my head, I felt that our failed marriage was all my fault,
even though consciously I would say that it wasn't.
I saw a whole string of relationships attached to this one when
all these different men owned my space in this manner, and I readily
gave up my seniority to them. I saw the first time this happenned was
the first time I had sex, and since then, I had gotten used to
someone else's vibration in my space, instead of my own.
I saw that's why women go from man to man, because they are used
to someone else running their control room, and they feel lost as to
how to form their own pictures of what they want to experience and
keep their attention on that.
As all these pictures played, I saw myself when I was eighteen and
had a nervous breakdown. I saw the reason for this was having a male
in my head.
I saw that when males are in this psychologically immature space,
the main thing they look for in a female, is how easily he can
control her on an energy level and how his energy can own her mind so
that she sees things through his eyes.
Psychologically immature females look for males to control them,
reveling in a false sense of security because of a fear of their own
power and independence. All of this stems from the inherent
programming of thousands of years.
Anyway, as I saw and realized all of this, I felt so thankful to
be de-energizing this game I had been blindly playing for so long.
The experience made me see that I am who I have been looking for all
along.
The Love of God
Rev. Jill Heine
Trancing is really going well, thanks to much help from Rev. Bill.
I see that when I was not trancing correctly the family programming
kicked in and a depression was setting in. I understand the law of
grace now. When that energy of the inherited beliefs looped around, I
really believed I had to pay for their sins (misperceptions). It is
only through replacing the old with the new love, that this stuff can
leave. The other night I was in bliss as a result of Rev. Bill
sending me back the love which Christ in me had for him. He did this
in many different ways while I was very open to suggestion.
I realized this is the way a man of God loves a woman. I found
myself getting younger and younger in my attitude and appearance. It
was all the Supreme Being doing it on both sides, but it involved
putting oneself aside-totally. That is what Rev. Bill did and that
ability to receive came to me as he guided me deeper into a trance
state.
It was a gift from God that I was able to let go and see into the
world of spirit. It is a world of unselfishness and freedom from the
body consciousness, and it is full of insight into how God sees us.
I had the opportunity to use this love towards other students at
S.R.F. I realized this love was so pure because it is just as
powerful toward anyone who is open to receive it. Gods' love is an
equal opportunity employer.
When looking at someone with the mind of God on, the power
generated is such a potent healing force that it seemed I was
catapulted into an angelic world where nothing could go wrong. The
hunger to pass over this bridge between the body and the spirit
realms has transformed into extreme pleasure as I get closer to the
other side of it. In a deep trance state I slip between the cracks of
my desire nature which wants to get somewhere and the reality which
is that I am already there.
I can honestly say that all problems I was thinking about do not
exist in this space. This is not to say they did not have a use, for
they inspired me to want to picture for myself a better way. People
who are not having this experience have not reached a threshold of
pain in order to want to give up the old way.
