When I applied to Creative Experiences´ education ”Intuition, healing and mediumship” my intention was to under skillful supervision find out if I at all had the ability to receive and give a message from the spirit world. I didn´t really have any expectations at all, I just felt happy that I had been accepted for the course.
It was with delight mingled with fear that I sat down on the chair in the classroom when it was time to meet Terry Evans for the first lesson. He – whom I seen on television and giving a clairvoyant demonstration – how was this going to be? Well - it started out fine. A feeling of security in the group has led to laughter, tears and discussions. But also to intuition exercises, confrontations with old memories that have blocked energy, play, dance and not to forget the Mountain meditation and meetings with our sprit team. Apart from that, serious conversations with someone called the ego who wants to rule to get everything his way. In the beginning of the course I didn´t realize how the ego can manifest itself. But now I know that the ego sometimes sits on my shoulder and says: “do it to get appreciation, you can´t say no even if you want to, don´t listen to your inner voice – it´s just rubbish” and so on. This education has taught me to be observant of the signals, so now I don´t fall into the trap quite as often as before.
One thing I like with Terry´s education is the straight and to the point communication. I have liked the discipline and the homework. It really made me prioritize and plan to make things go without a hitch. Between every course I had to ask myself the questions “Do I really want this?” Am I prepared to do all this?” And every time the answer has come from deep within – Yes!
I have read books and written reflections, I had to book clients to practice healing, I have done psychometry readings on unknown objects sent to me from all over the country, from people that I have never met and I have been practicing private readings with a variety of results. I have followed the guidelines given but somehow anyway made mistakes. A very painful experience but on the other hand a very rewarding insight into performance anxiety.
To summarize an education from December 2007 to March 2009 is not easy. But I can say that I am stronger as a person and I have a completely different insight into how former events in my life have affected me. Fear of failing and fear of success – to mention something – has come up to the surface. And then a sense of freedom to have dared to challenge and stand in front of 40 people and in a séance been able to give a message from a person from the spirit world – a message the receiver actually understood. That was a great moment for me. I can´t think of a more suitable environment than the Old Village School in Fanthyttan. There is always something special about visiting there. A warm reception, first class food and an atmosphere that makes it easy just to be who you are.
The greatest gift during the education hasn´t been just the knowledge I have received, it was also the possibility to exchange thoughts and experiences during several days with other seekers or as I would like to call us – examiners. I sought knowledge and found something even bigger. A method to find out who I really am. Now I walk more calmly, more present and with greater faith. My diploma is hanging on the wall and I feel proud.
If I can – so can you!
