Dr Bruce Greyson, Director of Psychiatry at the University of Virginia, speaks at the UN about the medical “impossibilities” of near death experiences. Science has been unable to grapple with the anomalies of a person’s consciousness in an NDE, in which it not only continues without brainwave activity, but functions far more sharply without the brain’s help. People in near-death states, whether in NDEs or on the deathbed often have remarkable cognitive abilities and methods of retrieving information generally unknown in normal waking life. Greyson further discusses other anomalies of consciousness, such as the return of complete mental faculties in dying patients despite having severe brain impairment.He rightly points to the present conceptual limitations in science, as well as in our society at large, for our failure to scientifically and conceptually understand the phenomena of consciousness.

Bruce Greyson is a coauthor of The Irreducible Mind, a landmark work of continuing importance to consciousness research.

Student evaluations

Gunter: "During your class, I could feel my entire worldview changing over and over again."

Karin O.: “Dear Julia, I would like to thank you again for the wonderful time I had with you. It was deeply moving, exciting, horizon-broadening, joyful, life-changing and an enormous boost for my self-confidence.

I feel that I have arrived at what I have been looking for for a long time. "

Sabine: “Mediumship I was super exciting. It is always astonishing to find out what you think is not possible is possible!"

Sandra: “This year of training with Julia has led to a profound development in my life. The intensive practice work and training, the imparting of well-founded scientific background information and the resulting deep engagement with myself have allowed me to grow incredibly. Thank you dear Julia for your professionalism, your loving care for each of us and your fascinating skills, which amaze me every time."

Herbert: "My greatest wish is to be able to continue working with you and to ensure that your great teaching and your knowledge live on and spread."

Ria: “100% positive power!!! Thank you, Julia!"

Karin B: “You showed me what is possible and taught me to trust myself and my inner voice. Thank you Julia!"

Bettina S: “Dearest Julia, the methods you taught on the weekend for self-knowledge and eradicating harmful emotions from other lives is THE HAMMER !!!! Since the course, I have gained a mega knowledge for understanding the present in a much greater context. I can continue to work with your methods brilliantly on my own. Everything flows into one another and the negativity just dissolves. IT’S AMAZING !!! Thank you for teaching us this. I am so grateful for that. "

Axel: "All the weekend seminars were so new and exciting, and I am fascinated to discover what we are all capable of."

Martina: “The course has so sharpened my intuition that it gave me access to knowledge and worlds that I didn't know existed. Seeing a person's true self has made it impossible for me to judge anymore. I am constantly amazed at how beautiful we humans really are. It also makes me sad that some of us do not live up to their true beauty. Your course has turned my worldview completely upside down—several times—and revolutionized the way in which I now perceive God.”

Ulli: "Thank you, Julia. It is fantastic and enriching to work with you and to learn from you."

Ursula: “The seminar with you changed a lot in my life. I have become more clairaudient and clairvoyant. Many triggers that were severe a short time ago no longer trigger anything. I can just look at what's coming from a different perspective. In my work, too, I am much more sensitive and therefore much more efficient. I now perceive contact with the Oversoul, although faintly. I feel freer. As if I had completely new options.

I was particularly impressed by your enormous knowledge and how you fuse the scientific side with the mediumistic side.

What I personally appreciate about you, Julia, is that you are our teacher, but you are also one of us and therefore connected to us. "

Barbara N.: "I now understand better why the world / people have so many problems: because they let themselves be influenced so much by external things."

Vera: "I'm really looking forward to the next workshops, Mediumship II!"

Thomas: "Julia is an earth angel!"

Christine: “We have learned to trust our own feelings and to train them. We have dealt with our thoughts and inspirations in a completely new way. We have used perceptions and intentions more and more consciously and learned to appreciate all of our experiences - even challenging and threatening ones. We now see infinite possibilities, but we set a focus; for this we need periods of silence.

We have become finer, richer, freer because of you. Thank you, Julia!"

Elisabeth: “If you choose Julia, you are going on an exciting journey! Julia helps with a lot of heart and in a very professional way to discover your own potential and to bring more and more of it into life!

For me, working with you is a journey to myself. Many shifts have happened, many issues have been dealt with and “redeemed”. I don't know anyone who has so many approaches to teach us, who works on so many levels at once.

Words cannot describe what it is like to work with you. We students would probably talk ourselves to death. The workshops are something special. Your unique perception and abilities are a blessing for us who are now ready to follow ‘the way’ with you.

I (we) thank you from the bottom of my heart for all that you are, for all that you give and share with us. I am very grateful and happy that you are there for me (us).

If someone is looking for a new direction in life, is interested in awareness and spiritual development, then Julia is the one you need. "

Barbara R.: “Julia, thank you very much for the wonderful course!!! I learned and experienced so much! We have gained such extensive knowledge and a wealth of experience with you!

You are great!"

Karin H.: “None of my previous trainings has enriched my personal development even remotely as much as Mediumship I. Thank you Julia for taking me out of my comfort zone and for supporting me from the first moment to recognize that there are no limits, that anything is possible. I have learned to trust my inner experiences and to speak them out. Thanks also to my wonderful colleagues! The mutual support and appreciation created a great atmosphere to achieve our personal goals."

Christa: “There is a saying that goes: ‘if you want to go to the source, you have to swim against the current!’ The mediumship training with Julia is such an extraordinary, exciting and complex journey to ourselves, combined with amazing experiences and insights. Julia teaches techniques and exercises in a very competent and therapeutically-versed manner in order to make the participants aware of and strengthen their mediumistic skills. Comprehensive information about human consciousness and much more make this training special. THANK YOU Julia for your tireless commitment to give each one in our group your best, and with a lot of heart and love."

Peter: “The entire course is very structured. The individual contents of discussions as well as exercises are also supported by corresponding themes and explanations based on our current state of science. With this, FAITH is gradually being replaced by KNOWLEDGE. In addition to the exciting topics, the scientific aspect of the course is an essential reason for me to continue."

Elke: “Julia's Mediumship I deals, so to speak, ’across the board’ with different techniques and the endless possible uses of mediumship. She tries to ‘loosen up’ our linear worldview for us to achieve a greater understanding of the otherworldly world and its manifestations. I already had a bit of experience through courses in England at Arthur Findlay College (for healing work and mediumship). However, I have found that Julia's teaching goes far beyond what was taught there. I find her combination of a lot of theory and just as much medial practice very effective. My inner resistance to getting involved in mediumistic perception has practically disappeared and I also practice a lot more at home than before.

After the first courses, I finally recognized the structure and content that I could apply to my own work, something I had been looking for for a long time. My courage to be more aggressive about my own work has also increased significantly.

Julia's honest concern to make good mediums out of us all is noticeable again and again in the course and she supports us with full commitment. Mediumship I is highly recommended. Not only for those who want to work in this field, but also for everyone who believes that life does not end with death."

Michaela M.: “I always looked forward to the upcoming seminar weekends. Julia, you structured the seminars so well and made them easy to understand. It was always exciting to see what comes next. I particularly appreciated the practice exercises. It was easy to get into "seeing". I developed so much in the course of the training. I also really appreciated the participants in our seminar, who worked and learned together in a friendly and loving manner. We grew together and friendships developed."

Theresa: “The main reason why I attended this seminar (thanks to Gernot) was because I wanted to learn how to get in touch with the dead. Julia taught me this and much more that I did not expect. My horizons in seeing and understanding, be it of humans or animals, have expanded enormously. Thank you dear Julia, I recommend you from the bottom of my heart."
