“A trance journey is nothing for me at all!” I hear this from clients, friends or family from time to time. So let's take a look at why a trance journey might be something for you after all. Apart from all the misconceptions about hypnosis that still persist thanks to show hypnosis and horror stories about manipulated consciousness. I'll be happy to go into this in another blog article. Until then, I recommend my blog article How does a trance journey work? Here are my 7+ good reasons why it might be worthwhile for you to go on a trance journey (after all). Of course, there are many more, so I'll keep adding to them.
You want to have better access to your intuition
Sure, there are other ways to train your intuition. As we all know, many roads lead to Rome. However, a trance journey is a real shortcut - your shortcut to your Soul. And as soon as you are connected to your Soul, you can't NOT be intuitive. Because then you get download after download. A trance journey allows you to experience what it feels like when you are connected to your Spirit aspect and your Soul becomes tangible for you. Because honestly, many people talk about Soul and Spirit, but what do they actually mean? How can you really experience this aspect of yourself? Most of us don't get there in our everyday consciousness and often don't find the time or motivation for regular spiritual practice. During a trance journey, you can gradually approach the connection with your expanded wiser self, your Soul - and once you have experienced it, it's not so easy to simply close the door again.
You no longer want to feel so alone, insecure or even lost with your life decisions
Wouldn't it be nice if there was a wise advisor with a beard next to you who you could always ask for advice? Someone who could help you categorize the experiences in your life, understand the deeper meaning behind your experiences, encounters or conflicts, and then also help you find solutions and take the next steps? Someone who can reassure you that you are on the right path to your potential or tell you what this potential actually is. Or can give you a little nudge if you are not confident about something or are avoiding a path that would be important for your life's work? That is absolutely possible. And much more. In a trance journey you will find this inner advice (giver), sometimes in the form of a guide or spirit guide, sometimes spoken directly from the Soul without any intermediaries. And the great thing is: your Soul knows everything about you. And that is much more than you can ever comprehend in your everyday consciousness. But what is even more important: Your Soul means well and is your benevolent force.
You want to get to know yourself better and, for example, better understand your Soul plan or purpose
As I said, your soul knows everything about you. It knows your infinite nature, has an eye on the many lives you have already experienced and knows the greater plan behind them. And whether you can believe in the infinite nature of Spirit or that you are a part of it or not, your Soul guides you like a loving parent guiding their child as they take their first steps out into the world. And this parent also looks at you lovingly when you fall down or run in the wrong direction, because it knows that you have to try things out and make mistakes in order to grow up and become strong and embody your potential. And when you look up to your Soul and are confused as to why you keep stumbling and falling in the same place over and over again, your Soul is there, too. And if you learn to listen, you will be able to perceive your Soul's advice and develop a much deeper understanding of why things in your life are the way they are, where you want to go, who you actually are, what you have to give (to others). Maybe then you will understand why you had to learn to cope with a serious illness. Or whether the symptoms you had were actually an initiation into your role as a healer. Or whether your fascination with ancient Egypt is meant to remind you of ancient times as a priestess of Isis - and why that might be important for your life today. And if you learn to listen, then you will be able to perceive the advice of your soul and develop a much deeper understanding of why things in your life are the way they are, where you want to go, who you actually are, what you have to give (to others). Maybe then you will understand why you had to learn to cope with a serious illness. Or whether the symptoms you had were actually an initiation into your role as a healer. Or whether your fascination with ancient Egypt reminds you of ancient times as a priestess of Isis - and why this might be important for your life today. And if you get stuck or don't understand something, only in the connection with your Soul will you develop a very deep trust that you are guided and that things develop as they should.
You have no clarity about what you want or what your truth is
Maybe you've been dealing with the same problem for ages, perhaps a conflict with your partner from which there seems to be no way out. A deadlocked situation at work or in the family. Or maybe you have an important decision to make and you've already gone through lists of pros and cons until your brain has become completely knotted, but you're even more confused than before because - that damn uncertainty. You haven't been able to hear your inner truth for a long time, or if you can hear it, you don't trust it. The solution is always to connect with the inner wiser guidance of your Soul. This can help you see solutions where there previously seemed to be none. Because hopelessness usually has to do with the fact that we don't trust our inner guidance or can no longer hear it, and instead believe the doom-and-gloom scenarios of our ego. However, our ego is not particularly creative and only sees everything through the lens of past experiences. This is incredibly limiting. You can only get new, helpful impulses from your Soul. And I hardly know of any more effective way to connect back to these impulses than a trance journey.
You are currently going through massive changes or extremely difficult times
It is precisely those times when not everything is rainbow glitter and we are stuck looking to control the outside world that often prompt us to finally go within and look for answers. Or at least knock on the door to find out if there is anything there that can help us. Perhaps some inner voice that can tell us what we should do or why everything is so difficult at the moment. Because somewhere, most people sense that there must be something more. So it's no wonder that for many, a difficult break-up, a painful loss, an absolute dead end in life or a massively unsettling change such as a serious illness is an initiation into a deeper connection with the true Self. Then we often search for the why, for meaning or for orientation. You already know that a trance journey is your shortcut to your Soul. And only the connection with your Soul can ultimately and reliably give you the orientation, peace, comfort and deeper understanding that you are looking for. And only the connection with your Soul can help you find and walk your path strengthened and with inner clarity.
You want to get specific advice or next steps for your situation
Perhaps it has all sounded a little too abstract for you so far - there is talk of Soul potential, of connecting with the Spirit aspect or of finding your life's purpose. But your Soul can also give you very specific advice. How specific it can be depends a little on your individual concerns, your practice, your expectations and your Soul, or where your Soul wants to take you next on your life's journey. However, it is absolutely possible that your Soul will give you very specific steps and instructions on how you can, for example, solve a problem or achieve an improvement in very specific physical or emotional symptoms. It can also give you tips on what you need to change in your everyday life, for example to become more intuitive or healthier or to get rid of a habit that is no longer getting you anywhere. Or which skills and talents are still dormant in you that you may have mastered in another life and how you can bring them out. A trance journey can also give you very specific next steps in life and for your potential. Sometimes, however, the trance journey itself gives you the impulse, the inner shift that brings about the desired change. However, we often have to take action ourselves and change something in our lives. Your Soul can and will give you the information you need to do this.
You would like to have an explanation for unusual, extrasensory or mystical experiences that you once had
Perhaps you have had an experience once or even many times in your life that you can't talk to (almost) anyone about because no one would understand it anyway. Because it sounds too unbelievable or unusual. Because you haven't met anyone else anywhere who would have talked about something similar. Because there is simply no point of contact or you are afraid of not being taken seriously. Maybe you had a spontaneous out-of-body experience, noticed an unusual change in time, remembered a previous life, realized that you can control your dreams, had a premonition that came true, saw or experienced something that blew up your belief systems or that you simply can't explain. I know this very well. And I know many, many more people who do as well. And yes, I know many of them personally 😉. If nobody dares to talk about it, you won't find each other 😉. At the same time, such phenomena have been described in all cultures and at all times. So they are certainly not that new and unusual. A trance journey can help you to categorize this, perhaps also to reduce a fear that you have had since then. For example, of experiencing something like this again or really losing your mind. However, you may also be able to cope very well with the experience, you may even have experienced it as very positive and may even be able to categorize it, but are now curious as to why you were allowed to experience it, whether it has a deeper meaning (for you), whether you can repeat or control it. Mystical or extraordinary experiences are often there to expand our consciousness. A trance journey can help you understand, classify, process or deepen what you have experienced on a deeper level.
