What is Nathal

Develop ideas. Obtain information. Develop innovations.

Founded in 1980 by Dr. Gertje Lathan and Philippe Lathan, with the core technique of Supra-Dialog® — a structured query technique that enables targeted access to information not analytically accessible. The effect is neurophysiologically measurable (synapse formation, hemispheric synchronization).

Not a vague hunch, but a learnable technique. Thousands of graduates from more than 60 countries have since used it in research, medicine, development, and business. Once learned, one works completely independently — no subscription, no coach, no refresher.

The Founders

Founded in 1980.
Today supported by licensed trainers.

Dr. Gertje Lathan (1943 – 2022) developed the core method. Co-founder Philippe Lathan designed all training content. Since her passing, Philippe has dedicated himself entirely to research — training is conducted by certified licensed trainers worldwide.

Dr. Gertje
Lathan

Psychologist and Psychotherapist

Studied psychology in Düsseldorf, worked in rehabilitation psychology and psychiatry. Founded NATHAL® in 1980 and developed the core method of Supra-Dialog®, which remains the foundation of every NATHAL® training program to this day.

Lathan

Designer of the entire training program

Designed all training content: basic training, nine advanced levels, and all special seminars. Has been consulting for over four decades without classic specialist training — with results that have repeatedly proven correct (CERN, EDAG, Novosibirsk, Club of Rome).

Neurological evidence

Neurophysiologically
measured since 1985.

Physicist and psychologist Dr. Günter Haffelder was the first to systematically measure the brain activity of NATHAL® practitioners. What he observed: the formation of new synapses and hemispheric synchronization. The scientific community only recognized this phenomenon twelve years later.

A replication with state-of-the-art EEG-technology is currently underway in Jena.

During a NATHAL® exercise, analytical thinking, creative openness, associative networking, and deep regeneration are simultaneously active.

Nathal Energy — autonomous multipurpose supply containers

Simulation with NASA climate data in real time. Water, electricity, heat, and cooling generation worldwide. Patented, in cooperation with the University of Jena and GUST Kuwait.

Nathal Manuscript

11,000 pages. 33 writing systems.

For over 40 years, Philippe Lathan has been recording data in the form of line codes, formulas, and more than 33 different writing systems. Experts confirm similarities to Uighur, cursive Tibetan, and a Japanese secret script.

Decryption is AI-supported: led by the Gulf University of Science and Technology (Kuwait), coordinated by the Ernst-Abbe-Hochschule Jena (Lisa Köchel). Participants: Besmala Bendif (University of Algeria), Arun Josephraj (University of India). Initial formulas show connections to genetics, metallurgy, immunology, chemistry, and nuclear physics.

Intuitively painted.

Nathal Art

Intuitively painted. Healing documented.

Over 1,000 intuitively created paintings by Philippe Lathan. Several with medically confirmed healing effects.

The chief physician of the Aarau Health Department visited the exhibition daily during her lunch break. According to her own statements, her asthma inexplicably disappeared permanently.

Nathal Consulting

Intuitive consulting. Without prior knowledge.

For over 40 years, Philippe Lathan has advised scientists, institutes, companies, and private individuals — always without prior information about the respective field. The method works purely intuitively and completely neutrally.

It has repeatedly been shown that those advised achieved the greatest success the more closely they followed the information received. Documented in research, technology, architecture, medicine, and personal decision-making.

What participants say

During the basic course, it was shown to me that research was my task — and marine chemistry the path. A week later, a habilitation scholarship arrived that I previously knew nothing about.
Dr. habil. Gesine Witt
Marine Chemist, University of Hamburg
Since the NATHAL® courses, I am noticeably clearer, more confident in testing, and more intuitive in every patient contact. Less exhausted in the evening, recovering my strength faster — I couldn't have imagined that before.
Dr. med. Hermann Böller
Complementary medicine practice, Bergisch Gladbach
In research, you sometimes need a leap beyond the known. NATHAL® delivers that reproducibly. No mysticism, no coincidences.

Frequently
Asked Questions

Answered directly and honestly

No. NATHAL® is ideologically neutral and makes no religious claims. The effect on the brain is neurophysiologically measurable.

Philippe Lathan developed all content: basic training, all nine advanced levels, all special seminars. The seminars are now led by certified licensed trainers. The founder of the method, Dr. Gertje Lathan, passed away in 2022.

Meditation typically takes years for deep states. NATHAL® is an independently learnable technique that immediately produces neurophysiologically verifiable states of consciousness. Focused on concrete application, without external dependency.

Permanently. No refresher seminars, no subscription. Thousands of graduates from more than 60 countries apply the method daily.

Basic training lasts 5 days in small groups. In German-speaking countries and internationally, including research institutions. Current dates via the seminar calendar or direct inquiry.
