Twin Flames Documentary on Netflix, what it got right, and what it’s missing from a Christian perspective

The idea of ‘twin flames’ is that a soul sometimes gets split between two bodies. In reviewing ’Escaping Twin Flames’, Kate Orson explains why the concept is both wrong and dangerous.

The recently released Escaping Twin Flames documentary tells the story of the cult-like behaviour of the co-founders of Twin Flames Universe, an online community for helping people find their ‘twin flame.’

For those who haven’t heard of the concept of a ‘twin flame,’ it is a new age idea - that the soul sometimes gets split between two bodies, and we need to find our other half to be complete.

The programme does a good job of calling out the manipulative, gaslighting actions of the founders Jeff and Shaleia Ayan. One of the most shocking acts was when the couple started pairing people off into twin flames, all of whom just happened to be on the course. Because the course attracted more females than males, Jeff and Shaleia, started naming some of the females as ‘divine masculine’ and encouraging them to change their physical gender.
