Workshops

January 27 - February 1: Weeklong Intensive
Esalen Institute - The High Performance Mind: Awakened Mind Brainwave Training

The high-performance mind is clearer, sharper, more flexible. Emotions become more available, easier to transform. Information flows readily between the conscious, subconscious, and unconscious levels, increasing intuition, insight, and empathy. Having a high-performance mind means being able to enter at will the state of consciousness most beneficial for any given circumstance-and then understanding how to use that state.

Through brainwave training for beta, alpha, theta, and delta, this workshop teaches you how to produce the components for an awakened mind, the brainwave pattern of peak experience, optimum creativity, and spiritual awareness. Working with both the state and the content of consciousness, you can learn to use these brainwaves to help develop a high-performance mind for self-healing, increasing creativity, improving relationships, and developing greater awareness.

The workshop combines biofeedback monitoring with meditation, visualization, and deep psychophysiological relaxation to help you master your own states of consciousness. The Mind MirrorTM EEG will be used to measure brainwave patterns, and Electrical Skin Resistance Meters will measure the depth of arousal and relaxation of your autonomic nervous system, illuminating the interrelationship between your body and your mind.

April 27 - May 2, 2008: Weeklong Intensive
ESALEN INSTITUTE: Awakening the Mind: Mastering the Power of Your Brainwaves

Inside each person lives a wealth of knowledge, capacities, and power rarely transmitted to the conscious mind. Brainwave training, combined with meditation and biofeedback monitoring, can help develop these deeper resources, allowing access to greater creativity, reduced stress, and a deeper awareness and understanding of the inner self.

After assessing the brainwave patterns of hundreds of unusually high-functioning people, the late C. Maxwell Cade of London's Institute for Psychobiological Research began to see similarities in the patterns of optimal states of mind. Drawing upon Cade's work, Anna Wise has developed a program to help access these optimal states.

Brainwaves are affected in specific ways by different methods of meditation, visualization, and psychophysiological relaxation, as well as by specific acts such as tongue, eye, and body positions. This workshop presents techniques for brainwave development of beta, alpha, theta, and delta, and helps you determine which practices are best for your particular brainwave pattern. It also addresses how to use these optimum states for creativity, mental flexibility, self-healing, problem solving, and spiritual development.

The Mind MirrorTM EEG will be utilized to demonstrate brainwave patterns, and each participant will be able to use an Electrical Skin Resistance Meter to measure the depth of arousal or relaxation of the nervous system.
