   This  is  an article that appeared in the Albuquerque Newspaper Dec  1,
   1991 in regards to Alice Bryant and her daughter, Linda Seebach....

   Sidebar:    Alice  and  her  daughter  will both  be  speakers  at  the
   conference!

   UFO TRAUMA

     Alice  Bryant  remembers her first time well.  She was  driving  from
   Denver  to Farmington when,  along the Del Norte Pass,  she saw  bright
   lights and thought there had been an accident. She felt euphoric rather
   than  worried and drove on,  reaching her destination hours before  she
   logically could have.

     What had happened?  Bryant is convinced today she was in the presence
   of "Dimension Travelers,"  or aliens. For Bryant, a  67-year old writer
   who lives in Alto,  the realization was an easy one,  another adventure
   on a lifelong spiritual quest.  But she knew that for others,  seeing a
   UFO  and meeting its inhabitants might be disturbing,  even  traumatic.
   Where  do you turn after scaly creatures have scopped you up,   prodded
   your body and deposited you back on Earth?

     Bryant and her daughter,  Linda Seebach,  who holds a master's degree
   in  social work and has had "onboard"  experiences with aliens,   wrote
   "Healing  Shattered Reality:  Understanding Contactee Trauma"  to  help
   those  who  think  they have been contacted by aliens deal  with  their
   confusion.

     "This  is  really the first self-help book for people who  have  been
   contact,"   says Bryant. "We hope to reach those who are sitting on the
   fence, who don't know what happened, don't understand what happened and
   don't know what to do with it."

     Her basic advice for "contactees"  is to find time to mediate or pray
   and   seek  out  a  support  group  of  people  who  describe   similar
   experiences. When it is accepted instead of denied,  Bryant and Seebach
   believe  the experience of being in the presence of aliens can enrich a
   person's life.

     The potential audience for Bryant and Seebach's book is immense, they
   believe.  "There's a possibility,"  says Bryant,  "that we're all being
   contacted."
