The Shift Networks Presents “The Cosmic Game” with Stanislav Grof

As many of you know, I’ve been working on researching and writing Stanislav Grof’s biography over the last several years. It’s been an honor to work with him, his family, and his colleagues to tell the life story of one of the great leaders in the fields of psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy and modern consciousness research.

For those who wish to learn more about Stanislav Grof’s research, the Shift Network is offering a 7-week course on his work, starting on Wednesday, July 22, and featuring 11 leading figures of the consciousness movement. I am honored to be one of the guest speakers for two of the sessions.

This course centers on a rare presentation about Stan’s work given many years ago at Spirit Rock Meditation Center, bringing together decades of discoveries about consciousness, healing, spiritual experience, and the deeper patterns that shape human life.

Each recorded lecture from Stan will be followed by a live discussion moderated by holotropic breathwork facilitator Jay Dufrechou and the following guests:

July 22 – Jack Kornfield
July 29 – Chris Bache
August 5 – Paul Grof & Becca Tarnas
August 12 – Will Keepin & Cynthia Brix
August 19 – Rick Doblin
August 26 – Diane Haug
September 2 – Stan Grof, Brigitte Grof, Richard Tarnas & Becca Tarnas

Stanislav Grof Audiobooks

I am so happy to announce that the audiobook of Stanislav Grof’s 2006 memoir, When the Impossible Happens, narrated with my voice, is now available on Audible and through the publisher Sounds True!

I had the honor of recording this audiobook last year, just a couple weeks before my son was born. Reading Grof’s memoirs aloud was a rich and intimate experience, and also an extraordinary opportunity to deepen into the research for his biography that I have been writing these last several years.

Also, in case you haven’t heard the audiobook narration I recorded of Grof’s two-volume 2019 encyclopedic work, The Way of the Psychonaut, this is also available through Audible.

We hope you enjoy these performances of Grof’s groundbreaking writings on transpersonal psychology, psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy, and holotropic states of consciousness, among other profound topics!
