Tami Simon Speaks with Stanislav Grof: Learning from Non-Ordinary States

Awesome - Dr. Grof is one of my heroes for his early work in psychedelic psychotherapy and his continued work on the spectrum of NOS experience. Tami Simon of Sounds True speaks with Dr. Grof in this interview.

They're not mentioned below, but two of favorite books of his (both with Christina Grof): The Stormy Search for the Self: A Guide to Personal Growth through Transformational Crisis (1992) and Spiritual Emergency: When Personal Transformation Becomes a Crisis (1989).

Tami Simon speaks with Stanislav Grof. For more than half of a century, Stan has been a pioneer in the research of non-ordinary states of consciousness. He is the author of many books including Realms of the Human Unconscious, Beyond the Brain, and most recently Holotropic Breathwork: A New Approach to Self-Exploration and Therapy. With Sounds True, Stan wrote the book When the Impossible Happens: Adventures in Non-Ordinary Realities, and the audio learning program The Transpersonal Vision. Stan discusses the lessons that can be learned from non-ordinary states, the idea of a consciousness independent of the brain, and the uses and goals of holotropic breath work. (67 minutes)
