Summer Courses 2025
- Introduction to Lucid Dreaming (4 weeks)
with Robert Waggoner & Jeffrey Peck
Tuesday, August 5th - 26th
2:00pm - 4:00pm Eastern Time
Tuition: $125 ($110 for Rhine Members)
This course provides specific techniques that you can use to explore your dream life and more!
This four week course will introduce you to the science, practice and potential of Lucid Dreaming, or the conscious realization of dreaming while in the dream state. Topics covered will include a variety of lucid dream induction techniques, methods to stabilize and explore the lucid dream state, scientific research on lucid dreaming and potential activities to engage in while lucidly aware (e.g., accessing creativity, enhancing emotional or physical health, engaging a responsive inner awareness, seeking information outside of one’s knowledge and conducting spiritual practices). During the course, we will also take a special look at lucid dreaming and topics in the field of parapsychology, such as lucid dreams and deceased dream figures, precognitive and telepathic information in lucid dreams and more, along with thoughtful approaches to examining the results of personal experiments. We will also provide supportive advice for those who wish to use lucid dreaming for their own purposes.
- Developing Your Intuition (4 weeks)
with Loyd Auerbach, MS
Tuesday: August 5th - 26th
8:00pm - 10:00pm Eastern Time
Tuition: $130 ($115 for Rhine Members)
This course can be used as an elective for certificate programs.
The research findings from the field of Parapsychology have demonstrated that psi abilities-- ESP and PK (psychokinesis / mind over matter) – are functions of normal human beings, much like creativity. Some people are more creative than others in different disciplines, but everyone seems to have some creativity in them, provided they can find it and have some belief it can be developed and utilized. Developing one's psychic/intuitive abilities is much the same. Some people have a natural aptitude for certain psychic talents that spontaneously manifest themselves, others need to find which applications of psi they have aptitude for and work on bringing them out.
This course will cover the major findings of Parapsychology relating to what makes a person more (or less) intuitive/psychic and will include exercises that will help you both test and develop the abilities you may have aptitude for, including a remote viewing experiment and a "Telepathy" game you can play with your family and friends.
- Presentiment: Exploring the Nature & Theories of Time (4 weeks)
with John G Kruth, MS
Wednesday: August 6th - 27th
7:00pm - 9:00pm Eastern Time
Tuition: $119 (Rhine Members: $109)
This course can be used as an elective for certificate programs.
This 4-week online course will explore the phenomenon of Presentiment and how this phenomenon impacts the scientific view of time. Presentiment is an unconscious form of precognition that has demonstrated that the physical body and sometimes the mind respond to events that have not yet happened. Feeling the future, precognitive memory, physical responses to future events, and how studying after a test can improve your test scores. Scientific studies that have explored these events call into question our perception of time. Based on these studies, this course will explore theories of time in physics and philosophy.
- Presenting the Paranormal to the Public (4 weeks)
with Loyd Auerbach, MS
Monday, August 4th-25th
8:00pm - 10:00pm Eastern Time
Tuition: $120 ($105 for Rhine Members)
Are you interested in writing or talking about the paranormal like a professional? This course provides guidelines and practical skills necessary to present information about psychic/paranormal topics and parapsychology. Students will learn the importance of determining whether they are speaking or writing to a general or specific audience, and the best ways to appear credible while presenting information to produce a positive impact. Topics will include public speaking and overcoming fear of speaking in public, and techniques that make presentations easier to understand. Additional topics will focus on working with the media, how to provide a good interview, and some basic marketing and publicity skills.
Whether you plan to write a book, produce articles, speak to general or paranormal-interested audiences, or even teach workshops, this course provides the practical skills you’ll need to be understood and appreciated by your audiences. While the emphasis will be on psi-related topics, these skills will serve you well in a variety of contexts (maybe even your day jobs).
- Writing About Your Experiences: Part II (6 weeks)
with Sally Ann Drucker, PhD
Monday: August 4th & 11th; Monday, October 6-27
2:00pm - 4:00pm Eastern Time
Tuition: $185; (Rhine Members $170)
This course is full. No further applications are being accepted for this course
This course is required for the Expressing Conscious Living certificate program.
This six-week course is a continuation of Writing About Your Experiences - Part I, but it focuses the creation of a longer, book-length manuscript. Your project can relate to any genre: memoir, fiction, reportage, etc., and you do not have to write a complete book during this class. A number of chapters can get you started on your way to a fully developed book. The first two weeks of the course will focus on purpose, organization, structure, and marketing. A gap of over a month will provide the opportunity for you to write some chapters that will be used for the final four weeks of the course when we will focus on critiquing and revising these chapters. Many people feel that it's hard to write without an audience in mind; in this class, you'll have an ideal one — other students interested in paranormal experiences.
REQUIREMENTS: You should have taken Writing About Your Experience - Part I or have extensive writing experience in order to get the most out of this course.
