F.A.Q.s - Frequently Asked Questions

No. NATHAL does not require any particular life experience or intellectual ability. It can be taught to children as young as 6 years old. The method is universally compatible, it does not make any external requirements to anything.

The only real requirement is the ability to visualize. Beyond that, it helps to have an open mind and a positive attitude, or at least the desire to develop it.

Yes. There are different types of visualizers. Some people see inner images as clearly as e.g. a lucid dream and have an inner perception of space. Others describe it more as "I know the image is there, but only vaguely." Both types (and all grey levels in between) will work for NATHAL.

Only few people have true aphantasia "see" nothing at all. Even those cases can work with NATHAL if guided in individual sessions.

During the five days of NATHAL® basic training, we make two full sessions each day, including pre- and debriefing. In between, we do an extended lunch break which you should use to rest or sleep.

All subsequent courses follow the same structure, just with different topics.

NATHAL does not use any technical aids and the quality of synchronicity is unprecedented. It spans all spectrums of brain waves (alpha, beta, gamma, theta) and requires an amazingly small amount of own action and prior knowledge.

NATHAL begins where other paths end. We have been keeping this promise since 1980, guaranteed by the connection to the superior source and the professional and personal guidance that each participant receives. NATHAL creates access to new feelings that are the guarantee that each participant can go beyond the scope of what they thought was possible.

Because NATHAL has never made any compromise to quality in favor of quantity, and it will remain thus! For 30 years, only Gertje Lathan and her husband alone taught the method. Becoming a NATHAL® teacher takes many years of practice and a thorough understanding of NATHAL®’s higher purpose. The personality that goes this way must have extinguished all desires for personal importance, i.e. he or she must have no tendency to abuse their position and become a “guru” and create personal dependence. The method comes first!

The emotional connection to the Original Source can only be established by an initiated teacher. The handling of this contact must then be practiced and consolidated. Afterwards, the exercises can be carried out by the graduate at any time on his or her own, without further transmission of energy.

The Original Source is an infinite energy potential that realizes infinite creativity. Even though ultimately every human being is connected to it and for many it is only forgotten or buried, our experience shows that participants who are very skilled and advanced in their own discipline and method even benefit all the more. In the exercises new feelings are received, and they ALWAYS exceed what one has already realized for oneself. It is not possible to be underchallenged, each participant receives from the source the dose of energy and feelings for which he or she can cope.

NATHAL is compatible with any kind of mental or spiritual/religious practice. In order to learn and practice the method, it is essential that you set aside your usual paths for a bit, otherwise the desired new neural pathways cannot form. In any case, the mental discipline and calmness acquired through years of practice is a factor that greatly facilitates the entry into NATHAL and leads to faster results.

The advantage of the "uninitiated" is the impartiality with which the process is started. The measure of success of NATHAL is overcoming personal limitations. There is no external specification how this process has to look like or on which level it has to start, all experiences and feelings are controlled and dosed by the original source itself. NATHAL allows this process in unimaginable speed (i.e. within a few days) and precision (practicability in everyday life).

No, NATHAL is compatible with any kind of worldview or religion. However, personal values must allow for a development beyond what is imaginable, which can also lead to the questioning of previous religious or moral ideas about man and his place in the world. However, this is a natural process that occurs in everyone’s life and is merely accelerated by NATHAL.

The best results are achieved by participants whose personal philosophy promotes courage and open-mindedness to novelty, and which grants a reality to transcendence.

This question has two aspects: First, people in any kind of healing professions can use the NATHAL method to deepen their therapeutic skills and perform treatments through spiritual projection. We offer special seminars for this purpose.

Secondly, the process undergone in NATHAL training is per se highly healing, psychically as well as physically. For the treatment of specific personal problems, we recommend booking individual sessions.

No! NATHAL can only be learned in the physical presence of the trainer. NATHAL is about the conveyence of new emotions and it requires intense personal feedback to learn the inner dialogue. Everyone who has experience with video conferences knows that the level of personal interaction is very limited. Even in a business context, this is often not enough. For NATHAL it would be such a drop in quality that the very essence of the method is lost. Participants agree after the training that what is conveyed could never be done remotely!
