Christina Grof founded the Spiritual Emergence Network, an organization supporting people undergoing intense psychological or spiritual crises, a documented institutional undertaking distinct from a personal practice of breathwork left without any supporting organization of its own. That founding extended her work beyond a technique practiced in a session into an ongoing resource for people in crisis outside any single breathwork setting, a documented extension distinct from support offered only to those already engaged in her own workshops.
She also wrote on the relationship between spiritual experience, addiction and psychological crisis, a documented body of written work distinct from a career expressed solely through founding an organization and leading sessions. That writing treated spiritual crisis and addiction as connected concerns rather than as separate subjects requiring entirely different responses, a documented linkage distinct from an approach that addressed each in isolation from the other.
That Christina Grof both founded an organization for people in psychological or spiritual crisis and wrote on the connection between such crisis, spiritual experience and addiction, rather than confining her work to leading breathwork sessions alone, marks her later career as a documented case where a technique's originator built a second, lasting body of institutional and written work addressed to crises the sessions alone could not reach.
