Stanislav Grof teleseminar on "The Future of Psychology"
If we are to evolve beyond our current crises, the role of psychology is pivotal; can we change our minds in time and heal ourselves of our self-destructive tendencies? In this show with one of the founders of transpersonal psychology, Dr. Stanislav Grof, we’ll explore the future of psychology. Dr. Grof was originally trained as a Freudian analyst and found the theory fascinating but the results unimpressive. Far more impressive were the results from years of legal study of psychedelics and subsequently of non-ordinary states of consciousness induced by breathwork or shamanic techniques. Out of these years of working with “holotropic” states, Dr. Grof evolved a map of the human psyche that includes transpersonal realms, and the vital importance of the birth trauma, both of which can be applied to seeing how we can create societal healing today. Join host Stephen Dinan for a fascinating discussion with one of the most brilliant men alive.
