Ecstatic States

About this course

From suspicion of trance to cooperating with God in it, as prayer, with your body as a partner.

15 daily practices · 2 masterclass videos · 7-chapter manual

What changes in you

Your body comes with you

You stop treating your body as an obstacle to get out of. You stand alongside it and invite it to come with you.

Suspicion named, safety in place

You can name where your suspicion of trance came from, and you go in with a real person you can call.

Resistance is not failure

The clamming up you meet is not personal failure. It is an old grip, and in Christ it is already broken.
