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 once again presenting his Foundation Course, here, in Edinburgh, in 2015.
The Sir Arthur Conan Doyle Centre has been chosen as the only Scottish Venue to host this prestigious training programme and
following the success of the 2014 programme, we are delighted to announce dates for a new intake of students for the new class of
2015! The first weekend will take place on Saturday and Sunday 28th February & 1st of March. Places are limited and are fi lling
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:- 28 Feb &1st March; Module 2:- 27th & 28th June; Module 3:- 3rd & 4th Oct.
Price £160.00 per weekend or take advantage of the special price of £450.00 for the 3 weekends.

The Sir Arthur Conan Doyle Centre is delighted to welcome back the
ever popular Tony Stockwell, one of the UK’s most respected mediums.
An internationally renowned medium, tutor and author, having
appeared in numerous TV shows, including his own, this year
Tony returns to Edinburgh to brings us his new course. This is
part of his Path to Mediumship series which gets right to the
heart of the matter with a series of exercises for development
aimed at those working the platform and doing private sittings.
In this 3 day workshop we will cover exercises and techniques
that you can use in your mediumship that can be called upon to
help stimulate and bring through evidence and detailed commu-
nications from the Spirit World. (This is not for the beginner).
You shall also be looking at ‘intelligent communication’, the part
of any spirit message that should come after the medium has
proven the communicator with valid evidence and then works
with the spirit person to actually pass on what ‘they‘ want to
convey. It’s all about the spirit! Certain visualisations can be
used to help with names, dates, passing conditions, etc, other
techniques will help you take charge in your work and engage
more confidently with your recipient. Come out of your comfort
zone and forget playing it safe, be courageous and take risks in
order to progress.
Aim to reach higher and offer a standard of work any medium is
pleased to offer and the recipient of any message is delighted to
receive. Reserve your place now!

exercises to increase your communication links to the Spirit World. You will be assisted in learning proper methods to blend

convey the full essence and healing elements of the message. You will also be tutored in understanding the proper way to
ground and run your energy. By utilizing this understanding, the medium remains focused and un-depleted in their power.
Whether you work with one to one sittings or platform mediumship, this workshop will assist
you in gaining a greater confidence and ownership of your messages. Through a series of
intuitive exercises, meditations and mind journeys, you will sharpen your mediumistic abilities
and bring the Spirit World fully alive and into the human mind.

New for 2015
David Bruton, Lynn Probert, Steven Levett The Sir Arthur Conan Doyle Centre is proud to present 3 new faces to add to our line up of top quality tutors and mediums who will be
joining us in 2015. This year we are delighted to welcome the President of the Spiritualist National Union, Minister, David Bruton;
International Tutor and Medium, Lynn Probert, who regularly works with Tony Stockwell and Gordon Smith’s protégé Steven Levett
who also travels internationally to conduct his own workshops on healing and trance healing. We welcome them all to our Centre and
hope you’ll enjoy some of these new courses.
David Bruton is, of course a medium in his own right, as well as being an excellent speaker, tutor and demonstrator with over
37 years experience in Spiritualism. He will be conducting a weekend workshop in September called, ‘A Message for Everyone’. It looks at the key skills of public presentation, drawing on our link with the spirit to enhance the construction of prayers, addresses, giving talks and other areas of public speaking. This course will be especially useful to anyone currently studying the PAS Scheme, or CSNU or DSNU qualifications, as well as anyone who is required or aspires to give public talks within Spiritualism or in the wider world.
The Course takes place on 19th and 20th September, from 10am - 5pm both days. The course programme discusses and develops the ‘theory’ on the Saturday as it encompasses the theory of giving philosophy and public speaking and gives tips and advice on handling the nerves when giving a public address, working with an audience or congregation etc. The Sunday is the day when the theory is put into practice not only by the delegates but by the tutor too, as the programme will incorporate the Sunday Service which David will be conducting. This has been specially arranged to allow delegates to see the theory put into practice, followed by the opportunity to assess and analyse the performance based on the training given the day before! David really puts himself on the line here! A great opportunity for those currently undertaking platform work to share and develop their experience together and better present the message of Spiritualism.
The Course Fee is at a special price of only £65 for the 2 days. David is an excellent public speaker—not to be missed. Book Now!

workshops which he conducts in Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Sweden and Denmark as well as the UK. We have been fortunate to
enjoy Stephen’s input here at The Centre whilst he has been working with Gordon, so we’re pleased to offer him the opportunity of
running his own courses here. Stephen specialises in healing and trance healing and he has a marvellously powerful, yet gentle,
healing energy and he uses his power to maximum effect in his healing workshops. We’ve experienced Stephen’s trance and heal ing

The mystery of reincarnation has puzzled different cultures throughout the centuries.
What is reincarnation? Who will be reincarnated? What is the evidence for reincarnation?
Roy Stemman's landmark work, The Big Book of Reincarnation, is destined to become the bible of rein-
carnation answer seekers, as he tackles these and other tough questions about the reincarnation phe-
nomenon. A self-described "skeptical believer," Stemman examines the best case studies of reincarna-
tion. With his scientific approach, the speaker takes the audience deep into the lives of those affected by
reincarnation; children who remember in detail their previous lives, their parents, their past-life parents
and siblings and spouses. Stemman also investigates the leading theories posed by skeptics against
reincarnation and evaluates them in terms of the cases that he himself has witnessed all over the world.
Roy Stemman is an investigative journalist and publisher of Roy Stemman's Paranormal Review. He is
also the author of One Soul, Many Lives. Come hear this lively talk: 7th April at 7.30pm Price; £5
Barbara Meiklejohn Free, Shaman, Psychic, Medium and Mystic— 26th May at 7.30pm Price £5

At the age of 12 years old she met a man called Swein MacDonald – The Highland Seer, who became her spiritual father.

Barbara is a Shaman, Mystic, Psychic and Medium. We await to hear the subject of her talk on 26th May from her wide spectrum of topics. No matter what she chooses, it is sure not to disappoint.

Institutional meltdown, booming spirituality: living in a contradictory age.
A Talk by Dr Desmond Ryan, Edinburgh University. “Human life is reduced to real suffering, to hell, only when two ages, two cultures and religions overlap." (H. Hesse). Desmond Ryan will suggest that we are living through the most intense discontinuity in history.
Three fundamental areas of change will receive focused attention: religion, technology, and the
family. He will argue that only if we understand the impact of these changes can we understand why
ours is an age of institutional meltdown and booming spirituality.
Dr Desmond Ryan, is an Honorary Fellow in the School of Health and Social Science, Edinburgh Uni-
versity. A career social science researcher always focused on lived experience, he spent 45 years
examining educational, religious, health and social care institutions in Scotland, England, Italy,
Spain, Cuba and Argentina. Come and here him speak on: 17th March at 7.30pm Price: £5
