Helen Reddy said that she first became aware of her spiritual side during an out-of-body experience when she was 11 years old: "I had fainted, but I was at the back of the room looking down. We were all dressed in identical uniforms, I was at school. And I saw that there was this body lying on the floor and I thought 'Oh my goodness, one of the girls must have fainted, I wonder who it is?' And I zoomed in for a close-up -- which seemed perfectly natural at the time -- and I was looking at myself."
