Dreaming for Healing: Exploring the Impact of Lucid Dreaming Workshops on PTSD
Presented by IONS Scientist Garret Yount, PhD
Lucid dreaming, a dream state where individuals attain self-reflective awareness while remaining asleep, holds promise for promoting healing. Building upon a pioneering pilot study published in 2023, which revealed significant declines in PTSD symptoms following a lucid dreaming workshop, the IONS team completed a randomized, controlled study – a gold standard in mainstream medical research – validating the pilot study’s findings. Garret shares these unpublished findings, delving into their implications for future research and the profound positive impact they may bring to individuals battling PTSD.
Does Physics Need a Revolution to Understand Life, Living Systems & Consciousness?
Moderated by Physicist, Physician, and Chair/CEO of Nanobiosym, Anita Goel, MD, PhD
Our physics over the last hundred years has made a tremendous impact on human civilization and unleashed technology that has profoundly transformed the human experience on the planet. As we look forward today to envisioning how the human species might evolve over the next hundred to a thousand years, we have to critically reexamine whether our physics is complete or whether something is missing. Harvard’s Anita Goel shares her thoughts that our 20th-century physics is an incomplete description of nature that has not come to terms with life, living systems, and consciousness. She then moderates a panel discussion with Engineer and Parapsychologist Hal Puthoff, PhD, IONS Chief Scientist Dean Radin, MS, PhD, and IONS President Thomas Brophy, PhD, on the validity of her premise.
Morning Meditation Noetic Practice
Led by IONS Fellow Michael Sapiro, PsyD
Join Zen monk, clinical psychologist, and psychedelic psychotherapist, Dr. Michael Ryoshin Sapiro, for a guided experience into the psyche and cosmos while resting in pure awareness. This meditation will conclude with a talk on personal awakening for the sake of collective transformation.
BEYOND: Global Mind Change in Action was held in Spring 2024
World-renowned speakers and the IONS community came together to delve into the latest research and profound mysteries of human consciousness, as well as its implications for personal and global transformation. See our speaker bios and a list of their presentations.
