Some of the most interesting and accessible work in the
consciousness hacking arena today involves the use of EEG biofeedback to
support meditation practice. By measuring and observing our brain as it moves
through different states of consciousness, we can more easily practice shifting
between different states and cultivate the more positive ones.
Recent research in the neuroscience of psychedelic
medicine has discovered how specific areas of the brain are affected in these
altered states, much of which correlates with the research done around
meditation. Through this work, we are making significant strides in
understanding how the human brain works, and the tools and practices we can use
to help heal and positively transform our minds.
Dr. Jeff Tarrant is the founder of the NeuroMeditation
Institute, an organization dedicated to furthering education, research, and
service based on the practice of meditation from a scientific perspective. He
has researched how various meditation approached are associated with specific
brain regions, brainwave patterns, and states of consciousness. In this
presentation he will discuss his work in this area, and specifically how using
neurofeedback can mimic the brainwave patterns observed in psychedelic states.
Cost: $20 - $25
