Monday evenings at ISD Lotus Center & on Zoom. 5:30 to 7:00pm.
Aug 4, 11, 18, 25
Deepen your spiritual journey through studying and nurturing your innate clairvoyant and clairaudient inner senses of telepathy. Each of these four Monday Evening (5:30pm) classes in August is comprised of three parts: an in-depth discussion of an aspect of telepathy, then a demonstration of an intuitive exercise, and the time to practice these exercises for yourselves as sitter or reader or both.
Along side our host, Story Ducey, we will feature special guest mediums, Diana Friedell on 8/4 and 8/11 and Judy Simmons on 8/18 and 8/25.
Partake in group discussion, meditations and creative imagination exercises. Sharpen your inner hearing and inner vision. Strengthen your more refined senses of inner feeling and immediate knowing. Practice being a sitter or a reader. Learn how to take notes. Or draw a picture of the spirit message. Learn how to establish the purpose of contact and bring forth an accurate message from Spirit communication.
These inner or psychic senses are so natural and innate we unconsciously use them everyday. Why not learn to use them consciously~~with intention! Join our fun experiential Monday Evening Mediumship Summer School classes. Explore ‘everything you wanted to know about Mediumship; but were afraid to ask…’ in a fun and supportive way with others. Take turns being a sitter or a reader.
