Join us to celebrate 50 years of leading edge of consciousness research, and discover new directions for the next decades. During this free event in our special series honoring our 50th anniversary, we’ll hear from the IONS science team, including Helané Wahbeh, Dean Radin, Arnaud Delorme, Garret Yount, and Cedric Cannard who are leading research in the areas of non-local consciousness, channeling, exceptional healing, psychic phenomena, survival of consciousness, and more. Board Chair and Interim CEO Claudia Welss will provide context for IONS at 50 and beyond.

We’ll explore the areas of creativity and psychedelic studies, UAPs, conscious AI, and more with IONS science advisors, board members and special guests.

Carrying on the legacy of IONS founder Dr. Edgar Mitchell, whose original mission was to expand knowledge of the nature and potentials of the mind and apply that knowledge to human and planetary advancement, IONS continues to publish highly cited, peer-reviewed findings demonstrating the fundamental nature of consciousness and deliver transformational programs backed by the latest science. Last year our white paper ‘What If Consciousness Is Not An Emergent Property of the Brain? Observational and Empirical Challenges to Materialistic Models,’ rose to the 98th percentile of downloads on the Frontiers In Psychology website.

We are living in unprecedented times. As we continue to push the boundaries of scientific understanding of what it means, or could mean, to be human, we invite you to join us as we celebrate where we’ve been and explore where we’re going over the next 50 years.

In experimental remote viewing (RV) studies, photographs are frequently used as targets. But beyond the contents of the image itself, certain emotional, historical or spiritual qualities may be contained within the information field of the image, which could potentially influence the outcome of the experiment. Such considerations may not be limited to RV and are potentially relevant across many research disciplines.

One of the many potential outcomes of RV experiments known as “displacement,” where participants accurately describe an alternate, unselected image rather than the intended target, highlights the importance of understanding what qualities may make an image more or less “attractive” to a remote viewer. Dr. Damon Abraham, an independent researcher and behavioral scientist specializing in experimental psychology, emotion, and mental representation, has begun curating an open-source database of around 3000 images in collaboration with IONS and The Institute for Love and Time (TILT), which he’ll be telling us about in this webinar. 

This resource allows researchers to handpick stimuli for their experiments based on specific subjective attributes, and in this webinar, Dr. Abraham will discuss the project’s inspiration and potential future, including implications of this work in fields beyond RV such Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. We hope you will join us for this engaging and informative event!

During a lucid dream, we realize within the dream that we are dreaming. We literally know, “This is a dream!”  

Experienced practitioners can use a lucid dreaming state to access their inner creativity, heal emotional trauma and recurring PTSD nightmares, promote physical healing, perform spiritual practices, and consciously engage a non-visible inner awareness. Lucid dreaming seems to be an ‘open platform’ for people desiring inner adventures.

But, can lucid dreaming give us vital insights into how we create our perceived experience?  And, could these insights help us better understand how we create our waking experience?  

In this illumintating webinar, Robert Waggoner will explain how lucid dreaming naturally leads to a new understanding of perceived experience. It can push lucid dreamers to move beyond the creations of the mind and seek out a real-reality that is not based upon the mind’s constructions.

Lucid Dreaming: Can it Show Us How We Create Experience?

PRESENTER

Robert Waggoner is the past President of the International Association for the Study of Dreams (IASD). For the past twenty 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.

Lucid dreaming offers science a revolutionary psychological tool to experiment and investigate the deeper aspects of the dream state, consciousness and the mind. In 1975, Robert taught himself a simple technique to become consciously aware in dreams. Since that time, lucid dreaming has been proven by the pioneering research of Dr. Keith Hearne, University of Hull, and Dr. Stephen LaBerge at Stanford.

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, was called the “perfect book for beginners” by easy-lucid-dreaming.com.

Robert frequently speaks on lucid dreaming at national and international dream conferences, workshops and college classrooms, including Sonoma State University, Iowa State University, The University of Washington, The University of Michigan-Ann Arbor, Evergreen State College, and internationally at Tel Aviv University and Hebrew University, in Jerusalem, Israel.

Robert has been interviewed by CNN, CBS News and ABC News (KABC – Los Angeles) about the practice of lucid dreaming. His comments have appeared in media as diverse as DETAILS, The Huffington Post, Pittsburgh Post Gazette, Popular Science and Brides magazine. During 2009-2010, he had a regular Iowa Public Radio show, discussing dreams and lucid dreams.

The Lucid Dreaming Experience

The Lucid Dreaming Experience (LDE) is an independently published quarterly e-zine dedicated to educating and inspiring lucid dreamers everywhere. The magazine seeks to educate, inform and inspire lucid dreamers by exploring lucid dream techniques, sharing lucid dreams and discussing the potentials of lucid dreaming.

Through the lucid dream experiences of our readers, you will learn a lot about lucid dreaming — new challenges to try, techniques to prolong lucidity, ideas about the boundaries of lucid dreaming and more. Many of our readers find that reading about lucid dreams in the LDE (particularly at night before going to sleep) increases their likelihood of having lucid dreams!

Lucid Dreaming Plain and Simple

Based on many decades of personal experience and some of the latest scientific research, Lucid Dreaming Plain and Simple, seeks to introduce the beginner to the science and practice of lucid dreaming. Robert Waggoner, author of the acclaimed book, Lucid Dreaming: Gateway to the Inner Self, has teamed up with a talented teacher and lucid dreamer based in London, Caroline McCready, to help you learn important lucid dreaming techniques to induce, maintain and explore this special state. Along the way, you will be treated to numerous examples of lucid dreams, and the various ‘lessons in lucidity’ that emerge from the authors’ decades of experience and observant eye.

Lucid dreaming offers you access to an inner platform to call forth creativity, promote healing, seek insight and personal transformation. In clear and thoughtful language, Lucid Dreaming Plain and Simple shows you what you need to know in order to benefit from this extraordinary state. Moreover, you will learn how experienced lucid dreamers use this to accelerate spiritual growth, heal from past traumas and clear out mental debris which keeps you from your full potential.
