Hypervigilance and dissociation—often developed as survival responses to childhood trauma—can be transformed into powerful tools for mediumship and spiritual service when approached with proper training and psychological support.
Drawing on Jungian psychology, contemporary neuroscience, and anthropological research, this exploration reveals how trauma-based perceptual abilities have measurable neurological foundations. Studies from the Windbridge Research Center, Dr. Bessel van der Kolk's trauma research, and anthropologist Rebecca Seligman's work on Brazilian spirit possession demonstrate that what Western medicine may pathologize can become a source of healing and meaningful service within supportive frameworks.
The key is conscious development: combining trauma therapy, somatic practices, boundary work, and grounding techniques to transform automatic survival responses into intentional spiritual abilities. This isn't spiritual bypassing—it's the integration of deep healing with conscious perceptual development, turning our deepest wounds into our greatest sources of strength.
