A grounded, honest exploration of trance work with Swedish medium Mia Ottosson — no mystical theatrics, just real development. Enrollment for the 2027 course is open. Second year running: the 2026 course sold out.
In trance, you put yourself into an altered state of consciousness to allow spirit and your guides to communicate through you. This takes time and a lot of practice — in the beginning, it's usually your higher self or your own soul that you're inspired from.
There are many levels of trance, but we can really speak of three: inspirational trance, light trance and deeper trance. Everyone can go into trance — but not everyone can let go and be entranced. During these sessions we explore philosophy, communication and healing in the trance state. Be prepared to sit for spirit: this is not active mediumship, though it is still mental mediumship.
Even if you don't want to work as a trance medium, this is a very good course for learning to sit, build your power and blend with spirit.
All sessions are Tuesdays, 6:00 PM – 9:00 PM Swedish time (CET/CEST):
Total: 24 hours of live training over 4 months.
This course is designed for mediums and developing mediums who feel called to explore trance work with honesty and depth. You don't need to be an expert — but you do need to be committed, open, and willing to do real inner work. No prior trance experience is required, though some foundation in mediumship is expected.
Mia Ottosson is a Swedish Spiritualist medium, spirit artist, healer and tutor who has been working professionally for over 30 years. She has taught at prestigious international institutions and spiritual development centres around the world, and served for almost two decades as president of her local Spiritualist society in Sweden.
Throughout her career, Mia has trained thousands of students worldwide, both in person and online. Her approach to trance work is rooted in integrity and authenticity — stripping away the mysticism and drama often associated with mediumship, and focusing instead on practical skills, deep self-awareness, and real connection with Spirit.
"We are not marionettes for the spirit world. It is a teamwork." — Mia Ottosson
"Mia is very frank, very true with herself but also with her students, and very supportive. She helped me a lot to understand how the spirit world works, and she encouraged me in every step to continue on this journey even if I doubted myself." — Gaël, 2026 Trance Student
"I found all of the exercises both fascinating and incredibly helpful. They supported me in deepening my trance state and strengthening my connection. Without hesitation, I would recommend this course." — Jasmine S., 2026 Trance Student
"This is the third time I have joined one of Mia's trainings and I am so glad I did. Mia is patient and encouraging, she shares her experiences from the ground, not from a pedestal." — Tammy P., 2026 Trance Student
No prior trance experience is needed. You should have some foundation in mediumship and be comfortable working with Spirit.
No, and that's not the goal. We start with sitting in the power and light trance states, building a strong foundation before exploring deeper levels.
Live attendance is strongly encouraged, but recordings are posted to the private course community so you can review any session you miss.
Yes — every cohort has a private Facebook group for recordings, schedules, announcements and peer support. Past groups have stayed active long after the course ended.
It focuses on authentic, grounded development without mystical theatrics, taught by a medium with 30+ years of experience, in a group small enough for personal attention.
A stable internet connection, a computer or tablet with Zoom, a webcam, and a quiet private space for the 3-hour sessions. Headphones are recommended.
You'll have a solid foundation in trance work and practical tools to continue developing independently. Some students go on to work with Mia privately or join future courses.
€850 — 8 live sessions, 24 hours, limited to 16 participants. Secure checkout is available at trance.miaottosson.se. Questions? Contact Mia at mia@miaottosson.se.
