What Is A Mystical Experience?

Welcome to another episode of Returning: A podcast to return to yourself and the wisdom within. In today's episode we explore Mystical Experiences: what they are, what they aren't & how to know.

Chances are you may have had one yourself – but perhaps just didn’t realise it.

‘Mystical Experiences’ may sound pretty ‘out there’ or spooky or like an episode of the X-Files but rest assured, a mystical experience may be different to what you think. What if I told you that a 2009 survey found that almost 50% of Americans said they have had a mystical experience. Whilst some mystical experiences may be utterly show-stopping and life-changing – they can also be subtle, subliminal and gentle. This episode is a short introduction to mystical experiences, offering some some examples from my own life and others… I’m excited to see what it stirs up in you.

“Mystical Experiences are not just profound moments of connection; they are doorways into understanding ourselves and the greater universe.” - Rebecca Campbell
