High-Tech Mindfulness
Dr. Jeffrey Thompson
Ancient approaches to meditation techniques from various cultures have shown us key elements necessary to achieve deeper states of consciousness and self-awareness. We now have new understandings of the inner workings of the brain and nervous system during these deeper states with advanced research.
Using advanced QEEG brain-mapping systems, next-generation real-time HRV monitoring of the Sympathetic/Parasympathetic zero stress zone: Homeostasis, we can pull back the curtain of just what goes on “under the hood” during advanced states of meditation and “mindfulness.”
This presentation covers an overview of the scientific use of brainwave entrainment to shift states of consciousness by altering brainwave patterns with sound waves… both for healing and for advanced meditative states. We cover the overall concept of aligning Vibroacoustic, full-body vibration technologies with synchronized brainwave entrainment technologies for a fuller “Mind-Body” integration approach to Mindfulness and Meditation as a new model of human function.
We will also cover an overview of the anatomy and physiology of brainwaves and brainwave entrainment, how different brainwave patterns are associated with specific states of consciousness and the science and technology of Binaural Beats and ancient forms of using sound to change consciousness (Bowls, Tingshaws, Gongs, Chant, Drumming).
Hold on to your mind as we journey into the heart of consciousness expansion, brainwave states, 3-D processing, Primordial Sounds and the future of high-tech sound work.

Meditating with Mala: Nature, Neurodivergence, and Developing an Adventurous Practice
Riley Kern
I want to teach people what mala beads are and how they can assist a mindfulness meditation practice. In particular, I want to explore how to incorporate mala beads into breathing meditation and how mala beads can help people with different forms of neurodivergences – ADHD, ASD, SPD, and other forms of neurodivergence – to deepen their meditation practice. Mindfulness meditation is essentially about training the mind to rest in non-attachment. By focusing on the breath, we observe our perceptions, feelings, and thoughts as they arise and faid away, but continued focus on the breath can often be a struggle. Introducing mala beads can further help center the observing mind during meditation, helping the meditator to remain in a place of non-attachment.

Managing Stress: The Job No Manager Wants, but Every Manager Needs!
Soodabeh Mokry
In this fast-paced world of leadership and management, stress is often viewed as an unwanted adversary. However, in this keynote, stress is reframed as a critical aspect of effective leadership and organizational success.
This dynamic presentation explores the multifaceted nature of stress in the workplace, acknowledging its prevalence, and impact on individuals and teams.
The objective is for attendees to gain a deeper understanding of the root cause of stress and its implications for organizational performance.
“Managing Stress” goes beyond mere coping mechanisms, by equipping managers with the tools and techniques necessary to cultivate a culture of resilience and well- being within their teams. It emphasizes the importance of self-awareness, communication, and empathy in mitigating stress and fostering a supportive work environment.
Ultimately, “Managing Stress” reframes stress management as a strategic
imperative for organizational success, while encouraging managers to embrace their role as stewards of employee well-being, and recognizing that by prioritizing the health and happiness of their teams, they lay the foundation for sustained performance and prosperity.
