Celebrating Three Consciousness Trailblazers
Journal of Anomalous Experience and Cognition June 5, 2024 E. Cardeña
This issue honors Stan Krippner and two other pioneers in consciousness studies, Jeanne Achterberg and Ruth-Inge Heinze. Achterberg was a key figure in mind/body medicine, especially the role of imagery in healing. Heinze dedicated herself to the interdisciplinary study of shamanism. Krippner, described as a quintessential liminal figure, made major contributions to research on dreams, anomalous cognition, personal mythology, and other areas of consciousness. The text is a tribute and editorial framing, not an empirical study.
