Have you ever had an experience of feeling connected to something larger than yourself? Perhaps while in nature, listening to music or appreciating art, or during a meditation practice or religious ritual?

Such experiences can cause perceptual shifts in our worldview accompanied by emotions like awe, wonder, joy, and peace. While positive psychology investigates the psychology of wellbeing, flourishing, and optimal experience, transpersonal psychology seeks to better understand non-ordinary states of consciousness (NSCs) and their role in psychological transformation, healing, and integration.
