Today’s guest is Paul Citarella, Executive Vice President, CTO of The Monroe Institute. This was a very unique conversation for us at Untangle. We discussed how we can explore different levels of human consciousness that range from meditation and expanded awareness to out of body experiences, remote viewing and mediumship. He shared how Monroe Institute’s technology and unique sounds and sound patterns help facilitate deeper mind states and levels of consciousness. Paul shared his personal journey of transformation, and how he came to a deeper understanding of his own life and its purpose for him and his family. The Monroe Institute has different types of programs at all different levels, but it is also an active research hub, where scientists, doctors, and academics work across disciplines to explore the intricacies of human consciousness. We discuss neural entrainment (which he’ll define) and how their sound technology can be used to enhance well-being in a range of ways— reducing stress and anxiety and improving sleep all the way to precipitating a life-changing personal awakening, as Paul experienced himself. It’s pretty interesting stuff. Much of what we discussed feels esoteric, but Paul is so grounded, authentic and intelligent, it all felt very attainable. As always, we’re Untangle, the podcast from Muse, the brain sensing headband dedicated to unlocking your brains potential AND Meditation Studio the five star app. Unlock 30 days of Meditation Studio for free at choosemuse.com/meditationstudioTransform your brain's potential with 15% off Muse.
