Tina Lindhard

Tina´s search to understand the nature of consciousness began while studying Psychology at the UCT. However in the seventies Psychology was largely not interested in what people were experiencing and feeling inside. In 1980 she left South Africa to live in Europe where she discovered that to really understand different "states of consciousness" one has to experience them for oneself from the inside. Based on these insights Tina now points out that science is not entirely different from spirituality in that both want to know the nature of nature or the nature of life. Tina earned her MA in Transpersonal Psychology at Sofia University/ITP and her PhD at the IUPS. Her thesis was on the Arka Dhyana Intuitive Meditation method. To learn more about the connection between the spiritual world and the material plane, she also completed a course on embryology with Dr. Jaap van der Wal. Tina now works as a mentor at IUPS guiding others during their MA and/or PhD degrees in Consciousness and Transpersonal Studies. She also continues to teach IM and the philosophy behind it. She is the President of CCASpain and the Chair of Consciousness Research for CICA International Foundation.
