MetaMind
Consulting
International research center and scientific validation platform for innovative methods and technologies
We design and conduct scientific research in psychology, neuroscience, mental health, cognitive function, physiology, consciousness and human potential.
Using neurophysiological research, qEEG, biomarkers, hormonal indicators, psychometrics and data analysis, we study mechanisms of action and measure the effectiveness of new methods, programs and technologies.
We turn promising ideas into scientific data and evidence — from research strategy and study implementation to scientific publication, international presentation of results and the evidence base required for scaling.

01 / WHO WE ARE
Consulting at the intersection of
science and metaphysics.
We work where familiar explanations end and the phenomena of consciousness begin.
MetaMind Consulting is an independent international research center bringing together experts in neuroscience, psychology, psychiatry, endocrinology and biology to study human consciousness.
We investigate established psychological methods as well as emerging fields that currently have little scientific evidence.
Our task is to measure their effects on people objectively with modern scientific instruments.
We build the evidence base for new methods and support projects from the initial research idea to international conferences and scientific publications.

EXPERTISE & LEADERSHIP
Maria Varava
Founder and Head of MetaMind Consulting Ltd
Psychologist, researcher and entrepreneur specializing in the scientific validation of innovative methods and technologies related to mental health, cognitive function, states of consciousness and human potential.
She founded MetaMind Consulting as an international research platform that helps companies, experts and creators of innovative methods turn practical experience and promising hypotheses into measurable results, scientific research and an evidence base.
Under her leadership, MetaMind brings together psychology, neuroscience, neurophysiology, biomarkers, psychometrics and data analysis to study complex human processes — from brain function and stress responses to altered states of consciousness and new approaches to mental health.
“We study what can change our understanding of human potential — and turn ideas into data, results and evidence.”About the founder and her scientific work
Research areas, achievements and international activities +
The main direction of work is the scientific study of human consciousness, expanded states of consciousness and the development of a methodology for the objective assessment of psychological, energetic and integrative practices using modern tools of neuroscience and medicine.
For many years, Maria has been studying the phenomena of consciousness and creating research protocols that make it possible to translate subjective experience into the format of measurable scientific data.
- Main areas of research
- phenomena of human consciousness;
- expanded states of consciousness;
- channeling and related cognitive processes;
- neuropsychology;
- transpersonal psychology;
- integrative psychology;
- scientific evaluation of energy practices;
developing research designs for new psychological methods.
Key achievements
Founder of the international research center MetaMind Consulting Ltd.
Founder of the Institute of Multidimensional Consciousness (IMC).
Head of research programs devoted to the study of the phenomena of human consciousness and expanded states of consciousness.
Author of the methodology for scientific verification of psychological, energetic and integrative practices using objective biological and neurophysiological indicators.
Head of one of the largest research projects devoted to the study of the phenomenon of channeling among Russian-speaking participants.
Author and co-author of scientific publications presented at international scientific conferences and in specialized scientific publications.
Speaker at international scientific events in the UK and Europe.
International scientific activities
Research and papers have been presented at international scientific conferences and academic events held in Cambridge, Oxford, London, Warsaw, Liverpool and Lisbon.
Maria's work is aimed at developing scientific dialogue between the academic community and researchers in new areas of psychology and consciousness, as well as creating a high-quality evidence base for methods that are at the stage of scientific validation.
“My goal is to create a bridge between the scientific and spiritual view of man. I strive to explore those processes that traditionally belong to the realm of intuitive and internal experience, using modern scientific methods, turning subjective experiences into the subject of objective research. Only by combining scientific rigor and openness to new questions can we gain a deeper understanding of the nature of consciousness and man himself.”
