The theme of Trauma and Transformation has preoccupied Stan and Christina Grof for many years. It preoccupied Stan in his cutting edge research into the therapeutic effects of LSD in the 1960s and it catalyzed the development of the holotropic breathwork Stan and Christina developed at the Esalen Institute in the 1970s and 80s.
It is of seminal importance in our world today, which continues to be rent with trauma and urgently needing profound transformation. What will be unique about the exploration of this TeleSeminar is that we will be approaching this deep and complex issue from the vantage point of the decades of research on the part of the Grofs, combined with a stellar group of researchers who have been continuing this research and are developing cutting edge therapies and approaches today. Psychedelic research is enjoying a renaissance as our traumas deepen and the need for transformation becomes more urgent in the face of failing conventional approaches.
Gain key insights from this outstanding line-up of some of the world's leading consciousness scientists and researchers, including Rick Doblin, Richard Tarnas, Jim Garrison, Charles S. Grob, Ervin Lazlo, Christoph Bache, Duane Elgin, Christina Grof, Annie Mithoefer and Michael Mithoefer.

Someone asked and I meant to post this sooner: If you're interested, you can still download the recording of the FREE teleseminar from Stan Grof here (look for the link on the top right of the page)
I personally thought it was excellent, so I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
Starts tomorrow!-Tuesday, May 15. Week 1 is with Rick Tarnas, who many of us know of in the depth psych community. Stan Grof has been a teacher of mine for several years and I can't say enough about how profound his work is. Hope you can join in...
Week 1 of 5: "How Deep is Deep: Depth Psychology, Consciousness Research, and Archetypal Astrology."
In this teleseminar, Rick Tarnas and Stan Grof will explore how psychedelic research has revealed the cosmic dimensions of the human psyche-by shifting the emphasis in psychology from postnatal life to the birth trauma, and deeper still to the transpersonal and archetypal realms. This deeper understanding of the human psyche gives us new insights into the roots of emotional and psychosomatic disorders. Rick and Stan will also discuss how the extraordinary predictive power of archetypal astrology gives us an invaluable tool (a "Rosetta Stone") for understanding the mind, and how archetypal astrology can help in healing, enhance our work with psychedelics and Holotropic Breathwork, and help us to support people experiencing psychospiritual crisis (“spiritual emergency”).
