I had the most amazing experience practising energy exercises with Analaura in the Energofitness program. It really blows my mind! Early this morning, at 4 am Sydney time, we practiced sending healing energy to a plant, a pet, and then a person. Whoa! What an amazing experience! It’s indescribable and nothing like I had unexpected! I’m a novice and have never done this type of exercise before. Within the short 2 hour session, I experienced different types of energy emitted by me and also experienced receiving different types of energy in return! I also experienced different kinds of interactions with the subjects. It’s like I was in a different realm, an adventure so out of this world, it’s mind blowing, fascinating and motivating! ~ Julie, from Sydney Australia
The CDP has helped me so much to understand OBEs, to learn how to control my Energy and to love Life. The teachers are amazing, with a lot of experience and scientific background. The live mentoring sessions helped to clarify my doubts and deepened in the understanding of the content of the program. Highly recommend it to everyone that wants to explore Consciousness and the multidimensional Reality we live in !!
I am working in the CDP and the energofitness classes. The HEAD of the IAC leads the live classes working with many students at a time, wow. It is incredibly powerful information taught extremely well. The patience from the teachers at the IAC is fantastic, everyone having a chance to speak their questions. I only wish I started sooner, we need to know these things as multidimensional humans moving forward!
I have to say......these live exercises, and the CDC program are excellent. I've been able to get plausible answers to questions about energies, a deeper understanding of what I'm and others are experiencing, and more tools to add to my energy self care kit. The instructors are very professional and kind which makes learning more enjoyable. Now a question....would the IAC be able to give me information about courses to become certified in energy healing? Thank you for your thorough program! B
I recently participated in the energo fitnesss presentation and enjoyed it. I learned about VELO and how to activate it. I also cleared my bedroom which is adjacent to negative lines. I look forward to participating in more lessons.
The Energo session was my first one and it was practical, thorough and interactive. I got alot out of it and I will be attending more. I am also doing the CDP course with the IAC and its been the best course that I have done in my 12 years of personal development. The trainers are knowledgeable, down to earth and its a very unique course which I am finding amazingly helpful and I highly recommend it to anyone intersted in consciousness, energy, dream and OBE experiences and general understanding of reality. Very happy customer here 😀
The session was quite interesting in knowing the energy fields of our body and to use them constructively for cleansing our environment. Analaura was very patient in answering the doubts of participants. Loved her session..looking forward for many more sessions.
It is always a pleasure to participate on the energo fitness sessions
I always enjoy the IAC and Ana Laura's presentations. Very helpful and enriching. Thank you. B.
IAC CDP course November 2021 Portugal I can say many things about the CDP course in Portugal, like the definitions and structures they present for a better insight in the non-physical universe, or all the reference material they provide to support their perspective and models. What stands out for me however is the individual experience of the trainers. The examples from their personal experience gives great confidence in their teachings. It also took away my the reluctancy for entering other dimensions. Thank you Nanci, Wagner and Joel René from The Netherlands
Thank you René for your words and your energy. It was absolutely fantastic to have you with us and we are looking forward to a future get-together…! Joel and the team
I found the CDP (Consciousness Development Program) course while searching for ways to Astral Project. I've tried other programs before and I can definetly say that the CDP is the most complex and explanatory, with many details on what AP is all about and what one can find while in the Astral Plane + many exercises on how to practice. Also, what I find extremly valuable is the EnergoFitness live sessions (as part of the program) - where you are guided and where also you can ask questions. Great work of the team! Thank you, all, for sharing your knowledge and helping others (re)descover their true nature as consciousness.
Thanks a lot Mihaela. It’s a pleasure to read your comments and see your progress!
I am so incredibly grateful for the IAC team and their mission. I discovered the IAC by way of Nanci Trivellato's TEDx Passo Fundo talk in 2017 and since then have read her book "Vibrational State and Energy Resonance" as well as completed my first course with the IAC: The CDP Online Course. What attracted me to this institution was the fact that the teachings and courses are backed by actual scientific research and published works—with empirical data that falls in line with my own personal experiences with both baseline and altered states of consciousness. It is both a bold and courageous step that institutions like the IAC are taking, and yet necessary at the same time. There is no question that near-death experiences, out-of-body experiences and other non-physical or quantum-level phenomena not only exist but have been well-documented throughout history (especially in the last couple of centuries). The IAC, with its decades of experienced teachers and scientists, is attempting to provide a framework for an arena of study that up until recently has been considered a pseudo-science…but in truth, only because it has been human nature to fear the unknown and thus feel better as a society by casting such arenas into dismissive taboos. It might stand to reason that even if a curious individual isn't interested in working with their bioenergies to attain what is known as the vibrational state (and consequently generating optimal conditions for an OBE) or some other non-physical phenomena, working with the tried-and-true VELO (Voluntary Energetic Longitudnal Oscillation) technique works as a natural anti-depressant, cleansing the mind and allowing for clearer and more lucid lines of thinking even in every-day, problem-solving, waking life. After having meditated for 4 years and been practicing yoga for 6 years, and I can say that the VELO completes my repertoire of mindfulness exercises to keep me mentally sharp, compassionate, and balanced towards myself and others. Truth be told, learning how to do the VELO is just like learning a new exercise or technique at the gym—one may not pick it up immediately, but like any other muscle in the body, the mind is a muscle that can be trained to perform mental exercises with increasing efficiency the more it is practiced. If you are curious about consciousness, emotions or any ways in which you can improve your level of day-to-day happiness I highly recommend the CDP Online course as an introduction to become a better version of yourself.
Thanks a lot! Always a pleasure to see you at our events and can’t wait to meet you in person once things get back to normal!
This is not an artificially generated profile. I'm from Barcelona City. from the Grácia neighborhood. After living an exaggeratedly Paranormal experience in May 2017, I vividly searched for an explanation. A friend named Pilar recommended the International Academy of Consciousness to me. After completing the Consciousness Development Course in February and March of 2018, I have received a much higher amount of information than what I initially needed. Also I have met very nice people between students and teachers. SIGN UP? DO NOT EVEN DOUBT IT! - Jordi from Barcelona Catalonia Spain -
Thank you Jordi! It's always great to hear reviews from our students and it's always a pleasure seeing you at our courses...!
IAC helps people through energy mindfulness and states of expanding awareness for well-being, self-awareness and overcoming fears.
This is the course I longed for 40 years ago and am grateful to have found it now. It's the kind of information and hands on techniques that are accessible to a person who did not want to commit to a guru and finding out their yogic secrets. It is thorough and trustworthy in a way I find picking up some YouTubes here and there isn't. It is scientific without having to rely on a lot of technological gimmicks. I appreciated the help of group coaching sessions along the way. I appreciated the support via email to answer questions that came up along the way. Generally those answers were prompt. Perhaps most importantly to anyone taking the CDP, which is a lot about having an out of body experience, I had them and continue to have them! Honestly, I didn't believe it would happen and was happily surprised when I did. To date, each experience has been extraordinarily uplifting and I hope to keep up the CDP practices routinely. I would recommend this course. As a person who is a trained mentor in a spiritual awakening teaching, I think my recommendation should be given added weight. Here are my reservations for those considering taking this course. If you are off put by "Spiritualism" you might find this course doesn't work for you. Also, be aware of your own disposition towards hierarchies of spirituality. Can you work with that? Also, as this work by the International Academy of Consciousness is overall trustworthy and scientific, I do not think it is accounting for those of us, a kind of new breed, that are experiencing "awakening." I'm speaking particularly of that wave of embodied awakening that is currently taking place on the planet. "Awakening" can be a misleading word, to be sure, yet I don't have another one. What it meant for me is, it was a little problematic fitting myself on the IAC map. In important ways I don't fit that map and my challenge to IAC would be to calibrate their studies in view of this collective shift taking place. A minor issue, and I do so respect the talents of Nanci Trivellato especially with language because I only speak one, is sometimes her use of the English language was a little problematic. Fortunately I could stop and start the videos which pretty much solved that. I am deeply grateful from my heart for this course. Thank-you to the IAC, to wonderful Nanci Trivellato, and all the instructors.
Thanks a lot Anna-Lena! It was wonderful to have you in the course and thank you for such encouraging words and feedback..!
The IAC offers a profound and deep evaluation of the human form and systematic behaviors between people, our planet, and all the energies we all exist in together. The techniques taught for more effective ways of becoming free and less diverted from our truth as individuals are timeless and perfect in their format as we know and need them to be today (2021)! All the instructors are knowledgable, kind, clear, and patient. Just one of my favorite aspects about this organization is the 30+ years of scientific documentation PLUS personal experiences from those willing to add to the data. These two levels of awareness work so well together and as a free thinker, I have come to appreciate the combination even more since I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in 2016. I have been dabbling in the spiritual life for 27 years as a yoga teacher/practitioner, and when I discovered the IAC and took the Consciousness Development Program in 2017, a lot of gaps in what I experienced, knew, and then came to understand were connected or filled through this program. It helped me feel more safe and courageous in my personal life.
Thanks a lot Lisa. It has been a fantastic journey and we really liked having you in the CDP :-) It's always great to hear how much our program helps people and we are looking forward to more in the future!
It's amazing to learn from IAC's instructors who support everyone with deep understanding and motivation. Very clear, practical and helpful step-by-step instructions and tips on how to do things, that lie beyond our physical reality and perception. I took Consciousness Development Program online and it was like a guided near-death-experience for me. To say it brought significant positive changes in my life is to say nothing. I just feel reborn, waked up from mental coma.
Thanks a lot Nataliya! It's been a true pleasure and we're looking forward to more positive changes. Very happy to hear about your experience! Thank you.
Great virtual class, very informative. I am looking forward to do all the practices from the Energo Fitness. It is nice to connect with people to keep the momentum going! thank you very much! Jaime Lundquist-Munoz.
Thanks a lot Jaime! It was a pleasure seeing you at the group mentoring sessions and the CDP recently :-) Enjoy the EnergoFitness sessions!
IAC, is an innovative institute that offers a wide range of courses related to the mind ad consciousness studies. I have participated as a volunteer in one study and had the extraordinary opportunity to learn a very useful mindfulness technique, Velo. I had been looking for a tool I could use everyday for an hygienic energetic balancing, Velo gives that and much more. Plus is not attached to any Folk, difficult Mantras, Pseudo-Psychology or Religious make up. The centre approach is very simple, straightforward, not pretentious and his approach is as rational as it could be. Was lovely to interact with Analaura who also shared her expertise and life experience in these matters. For the ones looking for peace of mind, who are empaths, curious, who are on a continuous process of self development IAC offers courses that can help to understand consciousness, energy and the Universe. How to develop awareness, and how to work with our own energy for clearing, balancing, understanding of oneself and natures essence, the world and so on. Unique and rich experience.
Thanks for your comments. We really value your opinion and wish you the best next year!
