Prof Chris Bache – Energetic Resonance and Fields of Consciousness


What are the collective dynamics of group minds?

 

Join Chris Bache to hear the gripping story behind his book ‘The Living Classroom’ and the amazing patterns that emerged to link his experimental LSD sessions with the minds of his students.

 

 
For reasons we don’t yet understand, the tendency to synchronize is one of the most pervasive drives in the universe.– Steven Strogatz, Sync

 

Chris says: “Fields of consciousness and energetic resonance manifest everywhere around us, but they emerge with special power in group settings. For years I watched these phenomena surface in my classroom, touching my students in sometimes dramatic ways, triggering unexpected episodes of healing, insight, and creativity. I studied their dynamics and eventually fashioned a new approach to teaching – emphasizing the ecology of consciousness and the collective dynamics of group minds. 

 

What I learned as a teacher applies to all intentional groups. The issue is not education but the nature of consciousness itself and the innate tendency of our hearts and minds to synchronize and form alliances with those around us. When collective fields are activated, our baseline consciousness is deepened and our individual capacities are augmented. But to engage these fields wisely calls for skilful means.”
