DSETI Dreamwork is a sole proprietorship in British Columbia operated by Daniel Rekshan. I provide professional hypnosis, dreamwork, spiritual counselling, publication, and occassional technical services through DSETI Dreamwork.
These terms of service define my vocational and spiritual practice of dreamwork service in the style of regression hypnosis for experiencers of ET/NHI or UFO/UAP missing time and related phenomena.
Dreamwork may be a more nature kind of hypnosis
My entire service offering is based around the notion that alien abduction research and related hypnosis are misunderstood shamanic dream phenomenon with special physical effects shamanic dream phenomenon with special physical effects. My books and essays explore this hypothesis.
My process involves a lengthy consultation so that I can understand that you know my service offerings are dreamwork, not regression hypnosis. Many people intuit they need hypnosis, so they seek for regression hypnotists because that was what was popularized by the media. Many experiencers are unaware of the frankly confusing history of hypnosis and dreamwork, which is why I wrote the essay Experiencer’s Guide to Hypnosis and False Memory.
Dreamwork deals with mind, but is not therapy
Dreamwork is a psycho-spiritual practice. It is not therapy or mental health. I do not work with mental health interventions, therapy, or medical issues. Further, it is important to note that thinking space aliens abducted you or similar narratives may actually indicate serious psychological conditions.
My training and education is academic, therefore I am an expert in topics like comparative literature and the literature of transpersonal psychology, but I am not a psychologist.
Privacy and Confidentiality
I work online with sensitive stories. Many of my clients have stories that I would love to write about, but don’t because they have not expressed volunteered their story. My intention is to maintain privacy and confidentiality with my work.
The practice of testifying to dream reality is part of the shamanic dreamwork tradition as far back as we have written records. It is built into traditions like Cannon’s QHHT. It is central to the health of the ET/NHI and UFO/UAP contact communities. Therefore, I may invite you to share your testimony or tell your story in the way that you are called.
I will try to do my best to keep our sessions private and secure until you choose to share it, which people often do with a pseudonym. I use Google services like email, Drive, etc to manage my files. As many of the community knows, nothing is secure, therefore do not reveal anything to me online in any way that you would not have seen by these hidden watchers.
At most, I may reference our time together in anonymous ways and the generic content of the engagement or dreams, when I feel it may be beneficial for my audience or client. For example, “I had a client who reported similar dream about a ship and tube, who also had the RGMP body mark” or something like that.
Research Policies
I write about experiences and use my session work as a source of case studies. I engage with experiencers through social media and word of mouth to talk about experiences or to inquire about specific phenomenon. I create public and private archives about these experiences, such as through this website or in my books.
I will speak generally and anonymously about my experiences as a dreamworker if I feel it is beneficial for my audience. I will not use your name or identifying elements of your story.
When I write about stories, I will ask you first. You will either sign a release form (if your story is going in a book) or send me a clear message that you are okay with me using your already public material in my research (like if you sent me a social media post).
In my body mark research, I collect and analyze public cases like posted on social media. For example, I might publicly write about a public experiencer story posted to Reddit about a body mark. However, if you also posted additional information to a private group that I have access to, like the RGMP Facebook Group, then I would ask your permission to write on that additional detail.
Donation Policy
My services are offered by sliding-scale donations, based on a rate of 90 USD per 90 minute session, which I will “discount” in packages or recurrent scheduling (60 USD per session when recurrent). I will send you a donation link after the session, along with links to our recording (if desired). This process is modeled after my first mentor in Core Shamanism, Tereza Morena.
My work involves dream shamanism, which involves respecting the dream and its characters as if they are real, while learning to discern the reality and meaning of a variety of dreams. My dream guides insist that I offer this service in this way so that cash is not a barrier.
I generally commit to an initial series of sessions for any donation level, although I may ask for permission to publish future writing on our sessions or inquiry together, which I understand as the spiritual practice of testifying.
I am not a non-profit, therefore the donations are not tax-deductible. I use the term “donation” because donations are part of traditional spiritual service offerings. It was how my mentor worked with shamanic practices. I will provide you a link to a Paypal form (use can use just your credit cards or your account) to write in what you want for the session after the fact.
Cancellations and Rescheduling
When we schedule calls, we are actually scheduling 6 people’s schedules (me, you, and my wife and kids). We are very reasonable and flexible, but do not tolerate repeated last minute cancellations. Some are legitimate reasons that I respect, some are people using me to play games with themselves.
Please be kind, respect my time and my family’s, and things should work out well. I will let you know if your rescheduling is an issue. Generally, if you have a rescheduling issue, I will require you to donate beforehand at the high end of the sliding scale to demonstrate your authentic desire to go through the process.
Refunds
I offer no refunds for services. If you are unhappy with my service, simply do not donate.
Social Policy
My work involves building rapport with people that often feels friendly, which it is. My work is to generate a mindful state focused on you. The sessions involve diving deep into your past and your experiences. At the end of the series, I might know more about you than most people in your life.
It is natural for some people to want to connect in social ways because we share interests and experiences. I am generally open to it, especially to maintaining social contact outside of donation-based sessions.
However, there are a few things you must know about me socially. First, I have a family with small kids. Second, I’m introverted and neurodivergent, which causes a very intermittent communication patterns that I am working with, but causes some confusion or pain. Just know that I might go weeks or months without social contact from some of my best friends.
If you want to be friends, you can expect intermittent text-based communication about our shared interests, seasonal video calls where we deep-dive catch up, or an opportune phone conversation while I’m doing chores or driving.
The final thing to know is that my presence in the session is supported by ritual and practice. I enter a trance state before our interactions so that I am mindful. It often produces state-specific memories, which means that I don’t actually remember your life story unless I’m in trace with my notes in front of me. Don’t be surprised if I don’t remember exactly what we did in session.
