Organizations I Love
Emergent Phenomena Research Consortium
The Emergent Phenomenology Research Consortium (EPRC) is a multidisciplinary, multinational alliance of researchers, clinicians, and patrons who share a vision of bringing scientific methods and clinical sensibilities to the rigorous, ethical, ontologically-agnostic study of emergent phenomena.
rice university's archives of the "impossible"
For those who say there’s no evidence for the “impossible,” I recommend Rice University’s Archives of the Impossible, which has over 100,000 donated items, directing our attention to somewhere between the furthest reaches of science fiction and the impossible strangeness of the real.
the galileo commission
The Galileo Commission’s remit is to open public discourse and to find ways to expand science so that it can accommodate and explore important human experiences and questions that science, in its present form, is unable to integrate.
Essentia foundation
Essentia Foundation aims at communicating, in an accurate yet accessible way, the latest analytic and scientific indications that metaphysical materialism is fundamentally flawed.
institute of noetic sciences
Through modern scientific inquiry, IONS seek to better understand a timeless truth — humanity is deeply interconnected.
Center for Humane Technology
Human attention is sacred and our current technology/social media models are stealing our attention. The Center for Humane Technology’s work is so important in helping us critically think about how technology is designed, why it’s designed the way it is, and whether those designs align with our values for humanity. I highly recommend their podcast (Your Undivided Attention).
The McKenna Academy of Natural Philosophy
Founded by the inimitable Dennis McKenna, The McKenna Academy of Natural Philosophy explores modern and traditional practices, ideas and technologies that foster the understanding of nature, consciousness, the cosmos and their interweavings with humanity. Donate to them!
My 10 best spiritual books
These are some of the books that had the most influence on me during my spiritual journey, written for Sandie Sedgbeer’s No B.S. Spiritual Book Club.
The Scientific and medical network
The Scientific and Medical Network is a group of scientists, physicians, engineers, and more who promote humanity's spiritual essence as compatible with enlightened scientific thinking. They have fantastic webinars, conferences, and more.
The Forever Family Foundation explores the survival of consciousness after death and provides a forum where individuals and families who have suffered the loss of a loved one can turn for support, information, and hope.
Practitioners
Rachel Wayte (Sound & Energy Healer)
I’m often asked about recommendations for sound, energy, or spiritual healers, and I cannot recommend Rachel Wayte enough. She’s incredibly gifted, compassionate, and powerful, and you won’t regret working with her. Just use my name to let her know I sent you. Her website.
Akashic Records + Spiritual Guidance with Julie Chan
Julie Chan is a fellow member of the EPRC and had a non-traditional spiritual journey going from being a Yale and MIT grad to a gifted intuitive purpose coach. She provides intuitive-based purpose readings, purpose coaching and inner empowerment education to help you understand the heart of your unique purpose. I highly recommend working with Julie -- she's amazing! Her website is here.
Kundalini activation with ruth vassilas
Ruth was a corporate lawyer with an Ivy League background (and another fellow EPRC member) who now facilitates Kundalini Activations after her spiritual transformation. A Kundalini Activation is a natural system purification process that clears out energetic blockages and awakens your life force within. Not only is being in Ruth's presence a delight, but her sessions make you feel more connected, clear, and supported! Her website is here.
Intuitive readings + spiritual emergency support with mariam saleh
Mariam is a lawyer who was hit with an unwelcome spiritual emergence (awakening), and another fellow EPRC member. Now, she embraces her connection to the world of energy and spirit. Mariam's readings, which can come with recommended practices, are ultra clarifying and comforting. She's extremely gifted and I highly recommend working with her. Her website is here.
intuitive readings with lynda diane
If you want to be truly dazzled by intuitive abilities, call Lynda! She's been carrying me through my spiritual emergence for years and there isn't high enough praise I can give her. Her website is here.
Refractive healing
Jamie brings a lightness to her healing work, and infuses the space with creativity. Working with her is a delight! Her website is here.
