The Sir Arthur Conan Doyle Centre and The College of Intuitive
Studies are proud to announce that internationally renowned Spiritual
Teacher & Psychic Medium Gordon Smith will be presenting his
Foundation Course, here, in Edinburgh, in 2014.
This is another ‘first’ for The Sir Arthur Conan Doyle Centre, as we’re
delighted to announce that The Centre has been chosen as the only
Scottish Venue to host this prestigious training programme. The first
weekend will take place on Saturday and Sunday 1st & 2nd of March
and places are filling fast.
Gordon, on creating this innovative programme says, “whilst I deliver various training courses
throughout the UK and abroad, because I have to travel so much these courses have tended to
be stand-alone, one-offs - and this has frustrated me, for as most students of psychic and
mediumistic studies will know, this subject requires a more consistent, cumulative approach.
So, I’ve created my College of Intuitive Studies which offers a modular-based training
programme, that delivers both consistency of approach and allows the student to clearly assess
their own progress as each module builds on the learning from the previous one.”
Gordon’s Foundation Course is open to all levels of students and is the beginning of his 4
module-training program that he has specifically designed and teaches to students all over the
world. Presented by Gordon and assistant teacher Steven Levett students participating in the
course will gain a much better understanding in the subjects of Mediumship, Spiritual Self-
awareness and Healing. As this course is heavily focused on a number of practical exercises
that will assist the student in their development, students will be required to practice and master
these exercises between modules.
The foundation syllabus will cover some of the topics below: -
How to correctly link with Spirit
Circle work
The power of Healing
Code of conduct whilst performing Healing
Working in The Aura
Reading The Aura
Psychometry
Blind Reading
Spirit Readings
As spaces are limited and are on a first come first served basis, it is advisable to book your place
early to avoid any disappointment. The Course will cover 3 weekends:- Module 1:-1 & 2 March;
Module 2:- 21 & 22 June; Module 3:- 20 & 21 Sept.
Price £160.00 per weekend or take advantage of the special price of £450.00 for the 3
weekends.

Healing Weeks. She has developed various aspects of mediumship including the deeper states of spirit control and
has continued to develop Altered State Healing, sometimes called Trance Healing, as well as Cain Healing.
Building on her successful trance mediumship workshop here, last year, Kathryn will be further exploring trance and
the altered states as she supports and encourages delegates to that deeper connection with the spirit realm. This
workshop aims to introduce and guide students in working in these altered states so that their own connection with
spirit becomes more tangible for themselves and others to witness.
Because of the nature of this work, numbers will be strictly limited. 10am - 5pm Those attending the Cain
Healing will be required to lie on the floor and should bring a cushion/pillow and blanket for their comfort.

Ron Haliday Famous Scots and their connection to the Supernatural.
Scotland is often seen as a land of mystery, a place where reality collides with the world of spirits and phantoms.
But what effect does that have on the individuals who call it their home? And, in particular, on those people who
have in one way or another earned a place in history? Famous Scots and the Supernatural examines the achieve-
ments of famous Scots through the ages and shows how their lives and decisions have been affected by unusual
and unlikely influences. To book call: 0131 625 0700.

Alan Sanderson, Psychiatrist, on Spirit Release
Dr Alan Sanderson is a consultant psychiatrist, hypnotherapist and spirit-release therapist. Returning to clinical
practice in 1990, after years of personality research, he found psychiatry still stuck in the pharmacological morass.
Spirit release, as pioneered by American psychologists Edith Fiore and Bill Baldwin proved very effective and to
someone trained in the bio-medical tradition, was an amazing revelation. He introduced ‘spirit release’, not without
controversy, to the treatment of NHS patients at Fairfield Hospital. Places will fill fast for this Talk, so book early!
