We've all done this from time to time ... picked up a pen and started to write in a daydream state ... to most it is an innocent sojourn into meaningless rantings; discarded pieces of paper screwed up and thrown in the nearest dustbin. We start to write the long overdue letter and are too tired to complete the task. So we start writing and our mind goes to sleep ... yet we keep writing!

The principle behind 'intentional automatic writing' is a simple one ... the conscious mind is immobilised and the subconscious is accessed ... and whatever is within the subconscious is conveyed onto the piece of paper ... whether it be underlying thoughts and feelings which are swimming around in the subconscious at the time; or an inspirational poem or verse; or an actual message from a discarnate soul which might be around at the time ... the principle is the same. There has to be an intention for this type of automatic writing to be effective. A reason or an insight to be answered ... then, it is essential to permit the mind to go into a relaxed, daydream like state prior to picking up the pen.

Writing Automatically ...
We've all done this from time to time ... picked up a pen and started to write in a daydream state ... to most it is an innocent sojourn into meaningless rantings; discarded pieces of paper screwed up and thrown in the nearest dustbin.
