Maybe you have had the mysterious synchronicity of thinking of someone – only to have them call you the moment after. Sometimes referred to as telephone telepathy, previous scientific studies show that this phenomenon is likely not just chance. At IONS, we’re taking the research one step further by investigating whether genetics can play a role in telephone telepathy. Do family members share an inexplicable bond, allowing for communication outside of ordinary time and space? Do the degree of relatedness and emotional closeness affect telepathy?

Edgewalkers are those who are always at the forefront of change, who walk “between worlds,” and have the ability to build bridges between different realms. They are described as having a strong inner life and yet are grounded and effective in the everyday external world. They look to the future and are focused on the possibilities.

Join Claire and Judi to learn more about the five leadership archetypes of change, with a specific exploration of how leaders of all types can cultivate the skills and qualities associated with the “Edgewalker.”

It may be that we are our most creative selves when we are asleep. Our nocturnal adventures teem with opportunities for innovative solutions and original expressions. A dream of spears with holes in them helped Elias Howe finalize the mechanics of his new invention (the sewing machine!). And the melody to one of the Beetle’s most beautiful hits, Yesterday, came to Paul McCartney as he slept. “I just fell out of bed, found out what key I had dreamed it in…and I played it.”

Lucid dreaming — when you know that you are dreaming while still asleep — adds an even deeper dimension to cultivating creativity, by adding self-direction and intention into the mix.

In this special webinar, lucid dreaming expert and author Robert Waggoner will share some of the scientific research on creativity and dreams, and how lucid dreamers have used their conscious awareness to call forth creative expressions from their unconscious knowing. Join us to learn how you can seek out and connect with your deepest inner creativity and access inner resources not necessarily available in the waking state!

Speaker

Author Robert Waggoner is the  past President of the International Association for the Study of Dreams (IASD). For the past ten years, he has been the co-editor of the online magazine, The Lucid Dreaming Experience, the only ongoing publication devoted specifically to lucid dreaming. A lucid dreamer since 1975, he has logged more than 1,000 lucid dreams.

Robert’s first book, Lucid Dreaming: Gateway to the Inner Self, shows how lucid dreamers can explore the subconscious and its knowing. With fascinating lucid dream examples, thought-provoking questions and exciting techniques, it has been hailed “a classic” by experienced lucid dreamers. His latest book, Lucid Dreaming, Plain and Simple: Tips and Techniques for Insight, Creativity and Personal Growth, written in collaboration with Carolina McCready, has been called the “perfect book for beginners.” Robert Waggoner enjoys educating others about the science, beauty and potential of lucid dreaming.

In today’s world we continue observing declines in mental health worldwide while access to health care and treatment keeps decreasing (especially in low- to middle-income countries). In this ConnectIONS Live webinar you will hear from a member of our IONS Science Team and PhD Candidate in Neuroscience, Cédric Cannard, as he talks about his project aimed to identify a novel and cost-effective method for detecting, measuring, predicting, and elevating well-being.

Well-Being, the Brain, and Wearable Technologies

Well-being and the brain mediate each other across the lifespan, and much is still unknown about their relationship. Electroencephalography (EEG) is the measure of electrical activity of the brain at the surface of the scalp. It is widely used to study human psychology, cognition, affect, and neuropathology. However, it is costly and time-consuming, leading to most studies consisting of small and undiversified samples. Recent technological advances have led to the development of affordable, light-weight, wearable, and wireless EEG systems. They offer fast preparation time, high mobility, and facilitate the collection of EEG data over large and diversified populations. In turn, these large and diverse datasets can help researchers identify trends, mediator covariables (e.g., age), and classify mental states.

In this ConnectIONS Live presentation, Cédric will discuss his research project in which he captured multidimensional well-being on 1,615 individuals that participated in an online survey and used it to identify some predictors of well-being. Second, he validated a low-cost wearable EEG system (the MUSE) for recording reliable signal and spectral measures relevant for the study of well-being. Third, he’ll explain how he used these two tools to identify an EEG marker of well-being in a large group (N = 353).

In this presentation, we will discuss these methodologies and findings, as well as the future directions for this field. The broader applications of this line of research, in the long term, will help reduce the prevalence of poor mental health and increased disparities in access to treatment and facilitate the prediction and prevention of mental illness worldwide.

SPEAKER

Cédric Cannard completed a Bachelors in sport science and a MSc in neuroscience during which he worked brain atrophies (MRI) associated with Schizophrenia with the ISTCT laboratory in Caen, France, and then on brain oscillations (EEG) involved in color vision processing with the CerCo Laboratory in Toulouse, France. He then moved to California to become a research assistant for the Institute of Noetic Sciences (IONS), and in December 2018 received a 3-year grant to work on his PhD in neuroscience under the co-supervision of Drs. Helané Wahbeh (IONS) and Arnaud Delorme (CerCo, France), focusing on well-being, EEG methods, wearable neurotechnologies, consciousness, and psi.

For many of us, a new year awakens impulses for possibility… yearnings to find creative ways to create transformation in yourself or in the world! You may have noticed a nudge, an inkling, a sense of something quietly calling to you — or maybe not so quietly!

This inner feeling is often an invitation to a Moonshot — a passion project that leads to positive impact for ourselves, our communities, and the world. Moonshots ask us to stretch, to access inner resources we may not know we possess, and to reach beyond the seeming boundaries. Most importantly, Moonshots build bridges to an inspiring new reality.

Reach for a New Reality in 2022: Bring Your Moonshot to Life!
January 14, 2022
11:00am – 12:30pm (PST)

REGISTER FOR FREE

In this experiential webinar, we’ll explore noetic practices to awaken your Moonshot vision or refine a vision you already have, and then empower you to bring it to fruition. We’ll also discuss how the science of attention and intention affect these activities, as well as the Possibility Accelerator Formula, a research-based noetic framework designed to foster transformation. Join us to kick off the opportunities of the new year!
