Phenomena associated with spiritually transformative experiences (STEs) can be confused with mental illness, even psychosis, and make us doubt the sanity of the experiencer. This course is specifically designed for yoga instructors, body and energy workers but is open to all. Learn to recognize and support the experiences that take individuals beyond ego and unleash the potential for more peace, energy, clarity, empathy, and wellbeing.
This course is an abbreviated form of “How to Effectively Support Someone in Spiritual Emergency” which has 7.5 hours of webinars and includes other materials such as interviews, articles, and worksheets.
*"Spiritually-Transformative Experiences" is a term first coined by Yvonne Kason, MD, in 1994.

I personally found this course both enlightening and reassuring in that there is today a growing appreciation in the psychotherapeutic community for an integrative and creative team approach to helping people who may encounter spiritual transformative experiences in their lives. I had such experiences in early childhood and that was sixty odd years ago when such a possibility was not really widely recognised within western culture. I was lucky because both my parents were relatively spiritually enlightened themselves and were able to give me reassurances.
When someone is disoriented by powerful spiritual experiences and is thrust into personal transformation--it can create a psycho-spiritual crisis. You may call it an evolutionary crisis as it leads to higher functioning when well managed. 15 minutes
