The air we breathe links us to distant forests

The water within us connects to rivers and oceans

PROFESSOR AMIT RAPHAEL ZORAN OF HEBREW UNIVERSITY IS A WELL-KNOWN RESEARCHER OF INTERACTION, CONSCIOUSNESS, DESIGN & TECHNOLOGY.

Amit Zoran has created a unique range of courses that explore meditation, mysticism, and expanded states of consciousness, blending technology, craft, and nature. His courses translate shamanic language into a modern and technological context. They offer a unique path to integration and harmony in the modern world—bringing together city & forest, modernity & wilderness, old & new. ​​ Amit’s work offers a path to self-empowerment and a deepening of the ways we perceive reality. One of his exercises takes participants into the forest to sit with trees, another uses AI chatbots as effective tools for self-reflection and exploration. Amit Zoran responds to life's challenges and changes in real time, regularly inventing exercises and hybrid solutions that fit the needs of the moment. Any topic can be relevant. ​​ Amit’s students are people who ask questions about existence. They are in the process of awakening and want to deepen their understanding and experience. In all cases, Amit’s students learn to harmonize and work with the reality that surrounds them. This helps them to get unstuck, contain polarities, and return to wholeness.​​

​As well as Amit’s courses, you can find his books and a range of useful free resources. If you have any questions, feel free to drop us a message. You can also explore more on his personal site.
