Conscious Aging: Death Makes Life Possible

“Conscious Aging: Death Makes Life Possible”

Marilyn Mandala Schlitz, PhD

What happens when we die? Does consciousness survive? If so, in what ways? Come join us as we explore the beliefs of other cultures about what happens to consciousness after death and how they would answer these questions. Learn about the ways in which science is addressing them. Consider the possible clinical implications of knowing how to think about and discuss people’s cosmologies of the afterlife.

In this presentation we learn about IONS’ transformation model as it relates to conscious aging. We will reflect on our own beliefs and how they impact our ability to support others as they move through their process of transition.

Join us as Marilyn Mandala Schlitz, Ambassador for Creative Projects and Global Affairs & Senior Scientist at the Institute of Noetic Sciences presents the latest research from the Institute of Noetic Sciences.

About the Institute of Noetic Sciences: The Institute of Noetic Sciences serves an emerging movement of globally conscious citizens dedicated to manifesting our highest capacities. We believe that consciousness is essential to a paradigm shift that will lead to a more sustainable world. We encourage open-minded explorations of consciousness through the meeting of science and spirit. We take inspiration from the great discoveries of human history that have been sourced from insight and intuition and that have harnessed reason and logic for their outer expression. It is our conviction that systematic inquiries into consciousness will catalyze positive concrete transformations in the world. In this process, our vision is to help birth a new worldview that recognizes our basic interconnectedness and interdependence and promotes the flourishing of life in all its magnificent forms.

Our Mission: Broadening our knowledge of the nature and potentials of mind and consciousness and applying that knowledge to enhancing human well-being and the quality of life on the planet. To learn more about the Institute visit: Noetic.org
