Introduction:
We believe everyone is a channel in one way or another. Have you ever had a thought or idea that seemed to come from out of nowhere? Have you ever referred to listening to your "intuition", or getting a "gut feeling"? Artists, writers, musicians, philosophers, etc., have all talked about creating, yet not always knowing at times where their inspiration came from. Could they be channeling their higher consciousness? Perhaps even a higher consciousness than their own? Is channeling really any different than how much of our modern technology works? Do the majority of us really know how the telephone, TV, or radio works? These things are so normal to us, that we rarely stop and contemplate how miraculous it all really is. Basically, a frequency is broadcast through a transmitter. Channeling is the same thing. All of this technology was considered "mad science", just a few generations ago. Todays science has proven that everything has its own unique frequency. If an inanimate object can broadcast a frequency, why can't a living breathing, intelligent being do so?
Channeling in its fullest form:
Kristina has spent years consciously developing herself to be fully in control, and at the extreme forefront of the phenomenon of channeling. Channeling in its fullest form is a deep meditative technique, which requires intense concentration on the channels part. The channel sets about to let go of their own waking consciousness, in other words the channel partially or fully sets their mental thoughts aside in order to expand their state of awareness. The channel experiences a state similar to an out of body experience, dream-state, or other such altered states of consciousness. From here the channel can connect with, and receive guidance from outside of themselves. This process enables another consciousness to come into, and express themselves through the channels mind and body in order to communicate from a realm beyond 3rd dimensional, or waking consciousness.
Channeling, like any practice takes training. For comparison, take sports for example; we can all participate to some degree, yet there are others who are genetically predisposed to be more gifted than others. This coupled with both the proper training and passion, takes them to the highest levels. This philosophy is true in everything; science, the arts, business, etc. Kristina's natural ability, paired with her training and passion to push the boundaries in everything she does, has made her into the channel she is today.
Overview:
Channeling has been around since the beginning of recorded history, yet it has been shrouded in mystery, misunderstanding, and fear. We here at Kristina/Sophia Inc. believe the practice itself, as well as the information being given is an important part of our spiritual heritage and the birthright of all humanity. Historically, channeling has often been practiced and used in secret, either relegated to the privileged in society such as political, social, and spiritual leaders, or it has been underground, and therefore treated as cultish, or some stereotypical, odd "New Age" fad. Either way, we can see the practice has been at the fringes of society and therefore separate from a greater understanding. Because of the great misconceptions, channeling has often been an unbelievable occurrence for many people.
This is an unprecedented time in history, the so-called "Information Age". As a society, we are at the greatest stage of our evolution in terms of our freedom to explore the world around us. At no other time have all the disparate thoughts and ideas within the world had a chance to co-exist as they do now. Of course it is not a perfect world yet, but every day new ideas and discoveries bring us all a little closer together. Channeling is simply another form in which to bring about information, and for us, used with the goal of bringing forth empowerment, and a greater understanding of our world.
Channeling does offer some unique paradoxes and issues. Channeling 1st and foremost offers information, yet in such a way that the process itself remains a relative mystery. Many people look to solid, real things in which to define themselves and their surroundings. Channeling is both a physical and spiritual practice and experience, and therefore cannot be so easily, or agreeably defined. Because of this, channeling goes against many of the fundamental thoughts of what is deemed "normal". Religions have thought of it as possession, or devil worship, psychology thinks of it as split personality disorder. We, and many others believe otherwise.
Furthermore, channeling can not only be an enlightening, and even mystical experience, but also, because it is so unusual in terms of what is at the forefront of mass society and thought, can be a scary experience. The process itself brings up such thoughts and issues as; "Just how solid is the persona in which we define ourselves, and others?" If you have never experienced channeling, just try to imagine seeing another being come through another's face and body. This can certainly shake the foundation of all that you have believed to be real. Many people also define themselves by what is acceptable to their friends and family, so admitting in going to a channel and believing in the process can set one up to be ostracized. These are all valid points and things to consider, however we feel that the world is truly ready to embrace this form and Sophia's very different ways with an open heart. Ultimately we trust and know in the bravery of the human mind and soul. Sophia wishes to bring herself and channeling to a mass audience. We believe there is significant value in not only what Sophia has to offer to the world, but also in you, the individual and collective engaging in the process of exploring the practice itself. We always encourage approaching channeling with an open mind, yet we also encourage questioning it, not only for the sake of being true to your own knowingness, but to also expand your own perspectives and thoughts. Truly looking at this modality can provide deeper understanding and insight into the ways we look at and define the world in which we live and create. Science has proven that learning, exploring and mental stimulation leads to a healthier brain. This idea is at the heart of our offerings.
Common Misconceptions of Channeling + Spirituality:
~ Channeling is not about connecting you to your crossed over relatives. That is Mediumship.
~ Channeling is NOT about predicting the future.
~ Guessing is NOT channeling. Our work is not a "psychic" reading; we are not after "hits". Kristina/Sophia are not interested in proving anything, least of which is "psychic ability".
~ "Instant Manifestation" is a myth. Manifestation and/or transformation requires directed action taking.
~ Kristina/Sophia are not here for "entertainment purposes".
Types of channeling:
There are different levels to channeling. Some people set aside their waking consciousness entirely when they channel, like falling asleep, and they remember nothing of what transpired while in trance. These are known as "unconscious or deep trance channels." Some people are partially conscious, and, because they can remember some of the transmission of words and energy from their guides, they are called "conscious or light trance channels." These people are aware to varying degrees of the information as it comes through. Some may have a vague sense of the messages given, but little memory of what specifically transpired. Some compare it to remembering dreams.
When a channel first starts to develop their skill, they are still fairly present, or in a light trance, as it is not an easy process to just simply "go away". It also takes time to establish connection and trust with the channeled being. It is important to be aware of, and trust the information being brought through, before going into deeper levels of trance and giving over more fully, the use of body and mind. The channel always has free will, and can stop a channeling session and come back anytime they want.
Information gathered through channeling can be extremely insightful, offering to us a broader perspective and experience of life. Because the channeled being can access knowledge and information beyond our normal realm, these interactions can be both intimate and universal. Though the thoughts of the channel are removed as much as possible, the being coming through uses the mind itself as a sort of translation devise, so that the expression comes through in a form that is understandable in terms of current language, recognizable movements and expressions. Also because the channeled being is using the channels mind and body, is limited to a certain degree by the vocabulary and intellect of the channel. Because of the limitations of the human body, the spiritual can never fully express their totality. Sophia describes the process for her as like trying to put the entire ocean into a swimming pool.
Channeling by definition, whether light or deep, requires the channel to be very much out of the way. Kristina operates from both perspectives depending on whether the consultation is private or a public (group) event. Private consultations are strictly confidential. Due to the often times personal nature and sensitive subjects contained within a private consultation, Kristina is not privy to the information shared. Kristina and Sophia have made an agreement to uphold ethical standards. Kristina does however enjoy being part of the co-creation of a public event, yet even in terms of being in a lighter trance, Kristina is still only semi-present, and for the most part pretty out of it. Therefore she will generally only remember a rough concept of what transpired, or certain key moments that stick out to her.
Channeling Vs. Mediumship:
Many people are familiar with the concept of "mediumship" through the popular television show "Crossing Over" with John Edwards, or the show "Medium" on NBC staring Patricia Arquette. The difference between channeling and mediumship is that a medium senses, hears or feels entities outside of themselves, and the medium is fully present in their own body and personality. Typically, a medium receives impressions from the senses.
Clairvoyant: will "see" images and scenes in the mind and/or in physicality.
Clairaudient: will "hear" words and phrases in the mind and/or in physicality.
Clairsentient: will "feel" emotions and feelings.
Mediums work in conjunction with the person that they are sitting for in order to "piece together" the messages. Generally mediums communicate with, and relay messages from crossed over loved ones such as friends and family, and give evidence that life continues after death. A Channel typically works with a high-level guide, or guides that speak on, and teach tools for personal & collective empowerment and transformation. However, the guide may bring through messages from loved ones as well. It is the guide that facilitates the session not the medium, or channel.
How Kristina and Sophia work together:
Channeling is not an easy technique to master, and requires a lot of physical, emotional and spiritual training in order to adjust to this complex modality. There are many channels in the world, and they all work differently, or specialize in different forms of information.
Sophia has been very present guiding Kristina her entire life. Kristina works with, and specializes specifically in channeling Sophia. Kristina, a born risk taker has continually pushed the limits in all that she has done. In particular, Kristina has been deeply committed to the practice of honing her craft, practicing, and studying spirit. At first, Kristina was only able to channel for short durations, eyes closed, and sitting relatively still in a chair. This beginning, yet modest form was still very physically taxing. In the years since then, Kristina has developed into an incredibly strong channel. Kristina can now channel Sophia, eyes open and fully embodied, for many hours at a time. This has resulted in the ability to offer several different types of Consultations.
Because it is a physical process, it can cause fatigue and stress on the channels body. It is important to remember that though Kristina is physically strong, her commitment, coupled with her extremely strong and clear connection to Sophia can mislead the fact that the process is more demanding than it may appear. It is important to remember that Kristina is only human and needs time to rest. Time spent channeling must be monitored and respected in order to maintain Kristina's health, as well as her ability to maintain the clarity of the work in order to serve her clients to her fullest capacity.
Kristina and Sophia are uniquely suited to one another. Sophia very specifically chose Kristina to prepare her to bring Sophia's particular message to the world. History tells us that Sophia has served the planet throughout all times, and worked with and through many people, always readjusting and shaping her message to the current time. In this day and age Sophia has yet again carefully crafted her approach to align with current modalities of behavior and thinking.
In Conclusion:
It is important to remember that Kristina and Sophia are two separate entities, human and non-human. The fundamental thing happening here is that two separate entities are using one body. It is critical that this be understood, though understandably difficult to comprehend. To not separate the two can be frustrating and confusing. You are getting to know and interact with Sophia, not Kristina. It is hard not to become attached to Sophia, but she is a non-physical being. It is important to not transfer your thoughts about Sophia onto Kristina. You are interacting with Sophia's personality through Kristina's physicality. Kristina is not privy to, and therefore cannot take responsibility for your interactions with Sophia, or your subsequent responses.
The idea of "trance states" or "channeling" typically evokes many questions and emotions. We welcome all thoughts, understandings and questions that you may have around the process. Many people have strong beliefs about channeling, both positive and negative. We hope that you honor your own interpretation of the work, yet we suggest trying it out in order to make an informed decision. It is important to remember that Sophia is not a 3rd dimensional being, so is not bound to, or restricted by what we think of as "normal" by mass societies standards, so we remind you to be open, and remember that just because you don't understand or agree with a philosophy, doesn't mean it's wrong, or false. In all honesty, it does not matter to us, or Sophia whether you believe in channeling or not, or if you ever will. We are not here to convince you of anything. What is truly important is Sophia's messages, which are truly and profoundly worthy of listening to.
