EST

New York hours

EST, or Erhard Seminars Training, was a controversial self-help program popular in the 1970s and 1980s.

Founded by Werner Erhard, the intensive seminars promised personal transformation through confrontational group sessions.

The program became synonymous with the era's human potential movement before rebranding in the late 1980s.

EST also abbreviates Eastern Standard Time. (Lowercase est typically abbreviates "established.")
