The 15th Step is a special place or level of consciousness where communication with the spirit guides and higher self becomes a reality. It is about spiritual growth and learning how to balance the material outer existence with a nonmaterial inner teaching. With the 15th Step Process you can go directly into the inner unconscious and bring forth both Divine Healing and Divine Teaching.
