}}Teal Swan (born June 16, 1984) is a spiritual teacher, author, and social media personality,[1] ranked 27 in Watkins' 100 Spiritual List.[2] Her teaching has garnered her the nickname "The Spiritual Catalyst."[3] Critics of Swan have called her a cult leader and, due to her unorthodox method of therapy, have nicknamed her "The Suicide Catalyst."[4]

Biography

Teal Swan was born and raised in Santa Fe, New Mexico on June 16, 1984.[5] According to her, she was born with extrasensory abilities such as clairvoyance, clairsentience, and clairaudience.[6] She has claimed to be an alien from the star Arcturus.[7] She claims to have been a victim of Satanic ritual abuse from the ages of 6-19, in order to cure her of her extrasensory abilities.[8][6] Part of this alleged abuse included being sewn into a corpse.[9] In particular, she has had TV interviews in 2014 regarding her ritual abuse conducted by Chris Oswalt and sent to Fox9, Kivi 6 and Idaho News.[10] Swan claims that she has memories of these events which were repressed, until a Salt Lake City based therapist helped her uncover them.[9] An investigation was opened into her claims before being ultimately shut down due to several accusations being made against her therapist, Dr. Barbara Snow, who incited Satanic Panic.[9] The experiences she allegedly experienced growing up have directed her "spiritual ministry" into helping other victims of childhood abuse.

Career

In 2011 she released the book "The sculptor in the sky" and started her YouTube channel. After 2012, her popularity grew having followers in several countries.

The company Teal Eye, according to the website,[11] is meant to create changes in several different areas: alternative education, reforms in the global food industry, justice, animal rights and spirituality.{{citation needed|date=December 2018}}

Swan has focused her ministry on healing others of their psychological ailments, including suicidal thoughts and repressed traumatic experiences.[9] She operates the Philia Center, a retreat center in Costa Rica.[12] Her followers are called the "Teal Tribe."[13]

In 2017 Teal Swan was the subject of a documentary about her life "Open Shadow: The Story Of Teal Swan".[14]

Controversy

Suicide diction and allegations

Teal Swan has been quoted as saying "What suicide is, is pushing the reset button... There is nothing wrong with suicide."[15] Additionally, two of Swan's followers have committed suicide, and opponents of Swan's methods have claimed Swan led them to their behavior.[16] Her teaching methods sometimes involve participants imagining their deaths, occasionally by suicide.[16][17]

Cult allegations

Many have claimed Teal Swan is a cult leader,[18][16] a claim Swan has vehemently denied. Swan has claimed that she knows she has the perfect recipe for a cult. Paired with her ethics, this knowledge has stopped her from becoming a cult leader, according to Swan.[17]

In popular culture

  • Teal Swan has been documented in the Gizmodo podcast “The Gateway” conducted by journalist Jennings Brown[17] and the Maximum Fun podcast “Oh No, Ross and Carrie!”[19][20]
