Taylor, who began with the Institute in 1996 and completed Gateway Voyage, Guidelines, Lifeline and Exploration 27, says the Focus 35 connection has enhanced her art and teaching. She had worried about parental disapproval of using Hemi-Sync with her students and says a solution presented itself only after Exploration 27. She notes she has no statistical analysis, only twenty years of teaching experience, but reports a calmer, more productive classroom and higher student creativity. The home version: Union, based on Exploration 27 The publisher lists Union as a Gateway Experience album it introduces as A Journey Beyond Time and Space, with eight guided exercises including a special tour of Focus 27, a healing center and an experience of graduating from the Earth Life System. It states that the album is based on the Monroe Institute's Exploration 27 program. The residential week is longer, adds trainers and a group, and has the prerequisites described above.

Susan Taylor: “Exploration 27 was a real treat. More than half of the participants were good friends from previous programs, and I anticipated the great adventure of experiencing what Bob had called “The Gathering” in Focus 35. Immediately upon my arrival in Focus 35, two personalities greeted me. They were so totally alien that if I had encountered them outside the security of my CHEC unit with trusted friends and trainers nearby, they would have been utterly terrifying. Safe in familiar surroundings, I approached them with curiosity and openness rather than fear.” (2000 Professional Seminar: Beyond Focus 27-Wellsprings of Creativity (Richard Werling & Susan Taylor) — Beyond Focus 27-Wellsprings of Creativity - Susan Taylor.pdf, 2000) “In Focus 27, time had the same flavor as the hour and a half in the crop circle and the meditation in Stonehenge. In each experience, I felt “at home.” In fact, in the expanded Focus 27 space, when instructions were given to return, I reacted with an adamant “NO WAY!”” (Hemi-Sync® Journal 1999-3 (Summer) — 1 Hemi-Sync® Journal 1999-3 Summer.pdf, 1999)
Skip Atwater: “We give them many years of experience, in some cases, by coming to the Gateway Voyage and a Lifeline and then Exploration 27 and [BX] 27. It's sort of a natural filtering process of people learning how to experience and report in these realms, and then have sent them out there on this exploration and asked 87 of them. So tell us what's happening to you. And looking back and seeing whether there is anything that is common to their experience: can we say something about this realm of the Healing/Regeneration Center? Is it out there? Or is it in here?” (2002 Professional Seminar: The Application of Hemi-Sync® in a Medical Setting (Skip Atwater) — 2002 Professional Seminar- The Application of Hemi-Sync® in a Medical Setting (Skip Atwater) (Transcript).pdf, 2002) Skip Atwater: “But having this notion that Bob got this information from elsewhere, I know what I'll do: I'll ask, who is the guy that gave this Hemi-Sync stuff to Bob? And really, what does it all mean for humanity? Well, I was rebuffed from [34 and 35], in a way, and they said, go to the library and look it up. Which one of the areas in Focus 27 is the library? Okay, so I went into the library [in] Focus 27, and I began to look it up. And it had to do with shape.” (2002 Professional Seminar: The Application of Hemi-Sync® in a Medical Setting (Skip Atwater) — 2002 Professional Seminar- The Application of Hemi-Sync® in a Medical Setting (Skip Atwater) (Transcript).pdf, 2002)
