Journey of a Trance Medium traces the development of Paul McGlone as a trance medium through all its stages over a period of 23 years.
Paul discusses early influences in his life: Growing up in a traditional Roman Catholic family, his struggles with mental health issues during his 20's, his experiences of other Christian traditions and his discovery of Zen Buddhism at 21 which was to prove to be an enduring and dominant influence upon his life. Given his Catholic background and his scepticism over the whole concept of trance mediumship he feels it is a wonder that he ever entered the path of becoming a trance medium.
Paul outlines his introduction to trance mediumship, and the long process of initial development through its ups and downs, hopes and fears. He discusses the development of the relationship with Hai and the other members of the Phoenix Spirit Group. Paul also discusses the meditation and development groups run at Eileen and Paul's homes, initially in Stockport and later in Northwich. Many public demonstrations have been provided over the years and many books published based on the communications of the Spirit Group. Paul also outlines and discusses his and Eileen's experience of sitting for physical phenomena.
Paul shares reflections upon his experiences while in trance and also discusses both his times of doubt and the evidence that has occurred. He reflects upon his experience of trance development and outlines principles which he considers may be useful for others seeking to develop trance
Paul is a trance medium who has given demonstrations in Europe, Canada and the USA. He lives in Northwich, England with his wife Eileen.
