Clinical Utility of Mystical Experience – Webinar hosted by the Department of Integrative Health & Exercise Science
January 23 @ 5:00 pm - 6:30 pm
FreeMystical experiences (MEs) are often profound and transformative encounters with a transcendent reality. Reported across many cultures and religions, these experiences are commonly characterized by a sense of unity, transcendence of time and space, positive mood, ineffability, and a noetic quality. MEs indicate significant potential in clinical psychology and have demonstrated psychotherapeutic benefit in the treatment of various conditions.
This presentation highlights a novel conceptual framework to guide future use of MEs in therapeutic contexts, as interest in the mystical realm continues to grow. This presentation also includes implications of non-local consciousness and non-ordinary states of consciousness.
Dr. Cameron Alldredge, PhD is a licensed psychologist and associate research scientist in the Mind-Body Medicine Research Laboratory at Baylor University.
