ConnectIONS Live!
Best-selling author Dan Brown’s new novel, The Secret of Secrets, brings noetic science to the center stage of a gripping, mind-bending adventure. But where does the story end and the real science begin?
IONS invites you to join two of the pioneering researchers whose work has explored the frontiers of consciousness for decades—our own Dean Radin, PhD, and Helané Wahbeh, ND, MCR. In this illuminating conversation, Helané and Dean will bridge the boundary between literary imagination and laboratory research.
Our esteemed researchers will unpack the real-world science behind the book’s captivating ideas, revealing credible evidence for our profound interconnectedness, the power of consciousness, and the frontiers of mind-matter interaction. Join us to explore how the themes in the novel connect to the leading edge of noetic sciences and what these discoveries mean for our shared human experience.
⚠️ Spoiler alert: This discussion will include references to key plot points and revelations from Secret of Secrets. If you haven’t finished reading, you may want to turn the last page before tuning in!
