Society for Consciousness Studies Conference 12/2021

The 2021 annual conference of the Society for Consciousness Studies will be held online, December 18th, from 9am to 5:30pm ET.

"I had the privilege of attending Dr. Elizabeth W. Krasnoff’s presentation “Igniting the Wisdom of Feminine Consciousness,” co-presented with Dr. Debby Flickinger (UIU) and Alethea Nerad (CIIS), at the Society for Consciousness Studies’ virtual conference on December 18, 2021. The presentation, which emphasized the healing, unifying, and consciousness-expanding potential of feminine attributes like receptivity, acceptance, self-reflection, and holistic awareness, was itself healing, enlivening, and elevating. It encouraged and fostered deep listening and reminded us of the beauty and necessity of compassion, community-building, and collective and integrative thinking. Ursula K. Le Guin writes that “[h]earing is integrative; it unifies”; this is what I felt as Dr Krasnoff spoke, a deep sense of unity and universal empathy."
