Michael Daw, PhD, is a parapsychologist, author, environmental activist, and public speaker. His first book – What is Your Mind? – is an engaging and accessible introduction to current scientific explanations for consciousness and is due for publication in November 2026. Here’s the blurb from the back of the book:

A journey to unlock the mystery of consciousness.

What is consciousness? Is it merely a product of the brain or might it pervade the fabric of the universe? Could quantum mechanics, higher dimensions or even the entire cosmos hold the key to understanding this most fundamental of mysteries? And what of phenomena that seem to challenge our conventional view of reality? While sceptics dismiss experiences like telepathy, reincarnation and even free will as mere illusions, mounting evidence suggests they may offer a glimpse into a deeper and interconnected mind.

What is Your Mind? offers a tour of the most groundbreaking theories of consciousness from fields such as neuroscience, mathematics and physics. With a foreword by leading noetic scientist Dean Radin this book explores a range of eclectic ideas – from the scientific to the spiritual – that promise to redefine how we understand our very existence. More than just a roadmap to the future of mind, this is an examination of the profound implications of a shared consciousness to the survival of our species.

Mike’s other area of research is on the relationship of diet – particularly fasting and vegetarianism – with spirituality and psychic experiences such as telepathy, precognition, and psychokinesis. 

Mike is an engaging speaker and regularly presents to general and academic audiences about these topics and more. If you would like him to speak at your event, or just to connect and say hello, please contact him via this website or get in touch via LinkedIn or Facebook.
