SUBJECT: UFO TRAUMA FILE: UFO2673 Fri 3 Jan 92 5:04 By: Sandy Barbre Re: Alice Bryant St: ----------------------------------------------------------------------- This is an article that appeared in the Albuquerque Newspaper Dec 1, 1991 in regards to Alice Bryant and her daughter, Linda Seebach.... Sidebar: Alice and her daughter will both be speakers at the conference! ---- UFO TRAUMA Alice Bryant remembers her first time well. She was driving from Denver to Farmington when, along the Del Norte Pass, she saw bright lights and thought there had been an accident. She felt euphoric rather than worried and drove on, reaching her destination hours before she logically could have. What had happened? Bryant is convinced today she was in the presence of "Dimension Travelers," or aliens. For Bryant, a 67-year old writer who lives in Alto, the realization was an easy one, another adventure on a lifelong spiritual quest. But she knew that for others, seeing a UFO and meeting its inhabitants might be disturbing, even traumatic. Where do you turn after scaly creatures have scopped you up, prodded your body and deposited you back on Earth? Bryant and her daughter, Linda Seebach, who holds a master's degree in social work and has had "onboard" experiences with aliens, wrote "Healing Shattered Reality: Understanding Contactee Trauma" to help those who think they have been contacted by aliens deal with their confusion. "This is really the first self-help book for people who have been contact," says Bryant. "We hope to reach those who are sitting on the fence, who don't know what happened, don't understand what happened and don't know what to do with it." Her basic advice for "contactees" is to find time to mediate or pray and seek out a support group of people who describe similar experiences. When it is accepted instead of denied, Bryant and Seebach believe the experience of being in the presence of aliens can enrich a person's life. The potential audience for Bryant and Seebach's book is immense, they believe. "There's a possibility," says Bryant, "that we're all being contacted." ********************************************** * THE U.F.O.
