Considering Abduction
              s human beings, we have been conditioned to live in a limited reality of
             our own creation, projecting onto the world and our own selves, those
             beliefs and attitudes instilled upon us early in life by family, friends and
society-at-large.  Much of this conditioning is fear-based, and capable of
creating a psychological blindness that can shut out awareness and opportunity,
and potentially force us into limited, rigid views of reality and what is possible.  
Even the brightest, most open-minded and curious of persons should
periodically reexamine their beliefs and their concept of reality, especially those
beliefs that stem from fear and prejudice.  Having the courage to do so will not
only expand the consciousness of the individual, but also enhance the
consciousness and evolution of humanity.  As you read the stories in this book,
we truly hope that you will suspend whatever preconceived judgments you may
have about the extraterrestrial contact and simply allow yourself to ponder the
information presented.  In doing so, you may be surprised to find that under very
different circumstances, amazing similarities appear throughout the abduction
experiences of men and women.  

    This may be the first time you are considering the possibility  of contact
between humans and alien life forms or, you might be a confirmed skeptic.  
Perhaps, though, you may be someone who senses that something unusual has
happened in your own life and you are wondering if your experiences could be
related to alien abduction.  If that is the case, the best way to explore a
challenging new concept is to face it directly through communication and open
investigation, thus eliminating much of the mystery, confusion and fear.  
Personal power can be reclaimed by such an assertive approach, restoring
emotional and mental balance.   

    In 1991, Barbara’s psychotherapy and regression therapy practice took a
surprising turn when individuals began to appear who were seeking assistance in
solving the puzzle of what appeared to be contacts with intelligent, non-human
life forms.  As time went by, more and more individuals sought her assistance
and, as a result, she became dedicated to exploring the phenomenon and in
supporting experiencers.   Nadine’s interest grew due to her strong investigative
instincts and dedication to personal growth would not allow her to ignore certain
unusual events in her own life that defied conventional explanation.  In
presenting the information in this book, the combined diverse backgrounds, skills
and experience of Barbara and Nadine have created a unique and effective
working partnership that produced Alien Experiences.

    The accounts of extraterrestrial contact presented in Alien Experiences have
been collected by Barbara Lamb under various circumstances over a seventeen-
year period.  Her sources include colleagues, attendees at UFO conferences,
UFO group participants and hypnosis clients.  While maintaining the integrity of
each story, all of the accounts herein have been presented anonymously,
without reference to the actual name or location where such information was
obtained.  Pseudonyms have been used for ease of reference and, when
required, permission to print was obtained.  For the sake of simplicity, when
referring to an abductee whose gender is unknown, we have referred to that
individual as he or him.

    Although we cannot scientifically prove that the accounts of alien abduction
depicted in this book have truly happened, we have recorded the information as
it was presented in as true a form as possible.  We can also affirm the sincerity
of the experiencers who we are convinced have experienced some kind of
anomalous event.
