In this episode, I talk with pioneering psychiatrist Dr. Bernard Beitman to explore his powerful new book Life-Changing Synchronicities: A Doctor's Journey of Coincidence and Serendipity. Together, we dive into the mysterious territory where chance meets meaning, and where the fabric of reality seems to momentarily rearrange itself to deliver meaningful messages.Dr. Beitman shares deeply personal stories of uncanny coincidences that shaped his life, from football field premonitions in Delaware to mind-expanding moments in 1960s Haight-Ashbury. We talk about his time in San Francisco during a cultural revolution, how psychedelic experiences opened his perception, and how those early glimpses of connection and mystery evolved into a lifelong exploration of synchronicity.We also explore the Mandela Effect, and consider whether these might represent a kind of collective synchronicity… or something even stranger. Is reality shifting beneath our feet, or are we catching glimpses of a deeper, interconnected consciousness at work?Synchronicity, serendipity, purpose, and the invisible threads that shape a life, and more!An incredible episode..

Many years ago, Nick Kettles and a friend updated bibliomancy--asking a question and randomly opening a holy book to a page that provides the answer. Instead, they set their TV recorder to a random channel to record at 3AM to answer the question they had in mind. Yes! It worked! We don't need the apparent mystical like tarot or I Ching. We just need to jump outside usual time line to find meaningful coincidences. We discussed how projection is both normal and necessary and provides a way to learn about our repressed selves. That to surrender is not to give up but the opposite--to deeply commit AND to let go of any desired outcome. How does being vulnerable influence the person with whom you are speaking? When you are being authentic, you are indirectly suggesting that the listener be authentic. Some people will join you and others with reject you. Nick is a Master Certified Coach, who is known for his compassion, keen insight and fierce commitment to creative and personal transformation. Nick has been working in the field of personal and professional development for over 25 years and today works as a leadership coach, course-facilitator, training design consultant and mindfulness teacher. In his work he supports executives, leaders, entrepreneurs and innovators, navigate uncertainty and complexity, from a foundation of deep self-acceptance and authorship. Often this calls us to embrace parts of our selves which we have marginalised into the shadow, a process Nick skilfully guides with compassion and full permission.https://www.thresholdsofthesoul.com Archetypes of Awakening   / @archetypesofawakening   Individuation is a process not a goal. You are always unfolding. Nick consults with businesses and finds that some managers are deeply committed to recognizing that their inner life is reflected in their surroundings. The corporations have energetic fields and a subconscious. While also confronted with the bottom line pressure, some managers help their employees evolve. Surprise to those of us who project evil onto all corporations. Some are not totally evil. Nick has much to teach us! Bernard D.

At age 4 Jude Currivan was connected to universal consciousness. She knows through personal experience that each of us is unique AND part of the greater whole. She communicates with the Universe and experiences its purpose which involves increasingly greater complexity with continuing expanded consciousness. The Universe playfully puts together improbable entities like DNA and seems to enjoy what happens next, only to proceed to the next adventure. For us living here on Earth, let's recognize our interconnections, our interdependence to find the love and self-awareness inherent in the Universe of which we are all a part. Dr Jude Currivan is a cosmologist, planetary healer, futurist, author and co-founder of WholeWorld-View (www.wholeworld-view.org) . Previously one of the most senior business women in the UK, she has a Master's degree in Physics from Oxford University specializing in quantum physics and cosmology, and a PhD in Archaeology from the University of Reading researching ancient cosmologies.

Your mind reflects the greater mind. In a dream, cosmologist Bernard Carr sees two trains on a collision course—one representing quantum physics, the other relativity theory. The next day, he reads an article about the collision between these two scientific paradigms. Was it precognition? Synchronicity? This experience challenges our conventional understanding of time, shifting from a linear 3D perspective to deeper, subjective layers. Carr shares more stories of meaningful coincidences, leading into a discussion of how physics continually expands our awareness—from the tiniest particles, like quarks, to the vast cosmos. As cosmologists delve deeper into the universe, they increasingly perceive it as a vast, ever-expanding mind—a thought in constant motion. Bernard Carr is Emeritus Professor of Mathematics and Astronomy at Queen Mary University of London. For his PhD he studied the first second of the universe with Stephen Hawking at Cambridge University and Caltech. He then held Research Fellowships at Trinity College and the Institute of Astronomy in Cambridge before moving to Queen Mary. His professional area of research is cosmology and includes such topics as the early universe, black holes, dark matter and the anthropic principle. He is also very interested in the role of consciousness, regarding this as a fundamental rather than incidental feature of the Universe. He is President of the Scientific and Medical Network and a former President of the Society for Psychical Research. B.J.Carr@qmul.ac.uk Bernard D.

Mind and matter are merging in our collective consciousness through the increasing experiencing of synchronicities. Synchronicities often connect our thought and feelings with our environment. We are both individuals and part of a greater oneness. Monica Bryant expertly describes how the microbes in our guts are very similar to the microbes in the soil. As she says, "It's everywhere, it's everywhere" coining the term pansynchronicity to inform us that meaningful coincidences are everywhere. Just look around, be curious and connect the dots! She and I discovered that each of us wanted to go to California and coincidentally found portals to realities that were to become part of our futures and the future of humanity--the living wonder of synchronicity. Come join us on our adventure!!! Monica Bryant is an Evolutionary consultant and coach who has provided archetypal perspectives to support soul evolution since 1994. She is an independent transdisciplinary researcher with an ecological and holistic worldview. Monica's MA was on transformative learning, synchronicity and transpersonal research methodologies.

The brilliant Vienna biologist, Paul Kammerer was found dead by questionable suicide. How did his pre-Jung study of coincidences create the backlash against him that may have contributed to his death? Seeking scientific rather than metaphysical explanations still created a hostile environment. Too mystical for many. His seriality differs from synchronicity. While synchronicity usually involves a mental event and an objective event, seriality always involves the possibility that the two or more events making up the coincidence are observable by someone other than the experiencer. Early on you will hear an extraordinary serial coincidence involving two women named Nadia--one in the 1920s and another in the near present. How did these two women end up being so similar? Jason Bulkeley served in the DoD as a translator and intelligence analyst during the Cold War and has a degree in English and Linguistics from UMBC. He translated and published numerous books from Russian to English on scientific and human-interest topics. He ran a restaurant for over 20 years, which spurred his interest in coincidence and synchronicity by connecting with interesting people from all over the world.

How do the dividing cells of an embryo know where there need to go to create a baby? Psychiatrist Rick Leskowitz knows that an energetic template guides those cells to their proper places. Templates also seem to guide the creation of synchronicities, partly influenced by your intentions and partly influenced by current mysteries. Being able to feel the energy field of a man's amputated leg convinced Rick that we are more than flesh. More than bones. We have biofields that shape our minds and bodies, that help us get into the flow, into the zone and that participate in coincidence creations through resonance and entrainment with other people and our surroundings. Dr. Eric (Rick) Leskowitz was a consultant psychiatrist for over 25 years with the Pain Management Program at Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital in Boston, where he founded the Integrative Medicine Task Force. He holds an appointment at Harvard Medical School, has studied energy healing, meditation and hypnosis for over 40 years, and has had 50+ articles published in leading scientific journals. He has also edited three textbooks, and his documentary film about group energies and sports, The Joy of Sox: Weird Science and the Power of Intention, was broadcast on PBS.

Time collapses, time expands. Steve Taylor studies and write books about the illusion of time embossed on our3D minds. Through the common spiritual awakenings many of you experience, we find a depth of connection to others and nature rarely available to our regular reality selves. During life threatening accidents and major falls time slows down, our minds expand to take into what we need to do to manage the crisis. These traumatic hints spotlight the limits of our linear time orientation. When you let go of the linearity to experience the interconnection of everything, you loosen the isolation of disconnection and join the worldwide movement toward collective spiritual awakening so desperately needed in these traumatic times. *This episode was originally uploaded to YouTube on November 17, 2024 * Join the Coincidence Project's Email List for weekly updates and events! https://thecoincidenceproject.net/ambassadors/bernard-beitman/ Steve Taylor PhD is the author of 16 books on psychology and spirituality, and is a senior lecturer in psychology at Leeds Beckett University.

Tom Morgan, once a highly successful Wall Street banker, went on an elimination diet, became highly energized and suddenly saw the misery he was living. He had been locked into the rigid thinking of his left hemisphere and had awakened into the holistic experiences always available through his right hemisphere. He has found the beam leading him to the attractor, the passion he was meant to follow. He is following his bliss and doors are opening. Synchronicities guide him, most profoundly indicating that he is on the right path. *This episode was originally uploaded to YouTube on November 10, 2024 * Tom Morgan is the founder of The Leading Edge, a private network for personal transformation. https://www.theleading-edge.org/about/ https://newsletter.theleading-edge.org/ Bernard D.

Bernard Carr has kept a synchronicity diary for 30 years, knowing that if he did not write them down, they would be forgotten. As a cosmologist he is very interested in time and describes his own experiences with precognition. He also describes how clocks stop sometimes when people die and other mind-matter interactions. The latter half of our discussion focuses on the anthropic principle, how our universe is fine tuned to create the potential for our existence. He suggests that it is our arrogance that makes us believe this is the only universe, that the multiverse is real. He suggests that we need much higher dimensions to understand our minds, that there is a greater Mind of which we are a part trying to get to know itself as each of us may be trying to get to know ourselves. *This episode was originally uploaded to YouTube on October 28, 2024* Bernard Carr is Emeritus Professor of Mathematics and Astronomy at Queen Mary University of London. For his PhD he studied the first second of the universe with Stephen Hawking at Cambridge University and Caltech. He then held Research Fellowships at Trinity College and the Institute of Astronomy in Cambridge before moving to Queen Mary. His professional area of research is cosmology and includes such topics as the early universe, black holes, dark matter and the anthropic principle. He is also very interested in the role of consciousness, regarding this as a fundamental rather than incidental feature of the Universe. He is President of the Scientific and Medical Network and a former President of the Society for Psychical Research. B.J.Carr@qmul.ac.uk Bernard D.

Synchronicity links Rae Leonard to her happy place in 5D. As she awakens each morning she gathers her guides together, sometimes by a fire in a beautiful old house, and describes her challenges for the day. Please help me with these things and they do. Among her spirit guides are the lead singer of the Doors, Jim Morrison, Einstein, deceased relatives and others each of whom make themselves known to her through synchronicities. *This episode was originally uploaded to YouTube on October 20, 2024 * Rae Leonard is an intuitive, energy worker, author, and researcher and is skilled in a number of alternative healing modalities. Her latest book is HIGH SOBRIETY: A trip Out Of The Bottle And Into Your Intuition, a wild read where she shares her rocky road of addiction with a wry gleam. Her story moves from fleeting glimpses of her past, to a transformation of a life now filled with limitless self love, jubilant health, and boundless joy. In her intuitive practice, Rae combines her innate gifts with “Healy”, a frequency device that sees divine beings in their most exalted state of health, physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually, in their highest state of consciousness. Healy technology delivers energetic adjustments which bring her clients effortlessly into that matching bioenergetic state by communicating to the quantum field, the information field in the unseen realm, that is just waiting for us to tap in. As Albert Einstein said, “Match the frequency of the reality that you want and you can not help but get that reality. This is not philosophy, this is physics.” Rae works with The Holistic Health Community in Stone Ridge ,New York, where alternative health practitioners offer a wide range of services at no charge to the community. She feels it is a model for a new paradigm of health care that addresses body, mind and spirit and that favors the least invasive modalities whenever possible! Rae reminds us that we are not victims in this life. We are Divine Angelic Infinite Beings who can decide to change our lives at any moment. Rock bottom is simply when you quit digging. https://raeleonard.me/ Bernard D.

Gary Lachman ranges broadly and deeply through the esoteric mysteries. He rightly criticizes Jung for being too scientific around unus mundus (one world). Gary illuminates our ability to be precognitive through that everyday transition between waking and sleeping--hypnogogic-the guide from sleep. His information presents as auditory, other people use visuals. Practice monitoring your information flow as you fall asleep and as you wake up perhaps starting with waking up. Let your mind drift in this in between world and you are like to find creative urges to build on during the day. *This episode was originally uploaded to YouTube on October 6, 2024 * Gary Lachman is the author of many books on topics ranging from the evolution of consciousness to literary suicides, popular culture and the history of the occult.

Ricky Derisz communicates with his heart and his head. Go ahead, get a feel for his wonderful heart energy. He experiences sequential synchronicities. Here is one he tells us. He unintentionally knocked the head of a state of the Buddha that initiated a series of "headless" occurrences. He interprets this one as clues to nonlocal knowledge. Several memes recurred for him: " Off with his head" from Alice in Wonderland, "If you meet the Buddha on the road, kill him." "It's the journey, not the destination." Read his chapter in the new book, The Playful Universe to get to know him in another way. We had a great connection. *This episode was originally uploaded to YouTube on September 29, 2024 * Ricky Derisz is a writer, speaker, and host of the MindThatEgo Podcast. Inspired by his battle with mental illness and subsequent awakening, Ricky's independent research and self-inquiry practice synthesizes depth psychology, spirituality, philosophy, science, and more, to support a cohesive model of reality that allows for a life-enriching relationship with the cosmos, one of enchantment, mystery, and mysticism. https://www.mindthatego.com    / @mindthatego   https://www.mindthatego.com/mindsets-for-mindfulness/ Bernard D.

In this episode of Connecting with Coincidence, Dr. Bernard Beitman and guest Federico Faggin dive into the profound questions about the fundamental nature of reality, the "one totality of existence, free will, consciousness and wanting to know ourselves. Federico Faggin is a physicist, inventor of the first commercial microprocessor, and consciousness researcher. Together, we discuss Federico's "postulate of being", which posits that the universe, "the totality of existence" is dynamic, holistic, and wants to know itself. We explore the intersections of quantum physics and consciousness, the role of free will, and the ways in which our individual perspectives contribute to the collective understanding of reality. The conversation also touches on the importance of self-observation and the potential of synchronicities to reveal deeper truths about our interconnectedness and purpose. *This episode was originally uploaded to YouTube on September 15, 2024 * Federico Faggin created MOS Silicon Gate Technology that underlies all modern computing, the first commercial microprocessor, the touchpad, the touchscreen, and neural nets that all contemporary AI uses. After an extraordinary experience of consciousness more than 30 years ago, Federico has devoted his work to understanding the nature of consciousness, which along with free will, he postulates to be fundamental aspects of existence itself. ⁠https://www.federicofaggin.com/⁠ Published books and other content

Plasma physicist Timothy Eastman cuts our ties to classical physics to release the genie of quantum physics into our collective minds. Solids, liquids and gases now have a 4th state of matter--plasma--in which electrons, protons, electromagnetism and other forces are constantly interacting to create this newest state of matter. Can this new state be a way of understanding psi phenomena and the functioning of the psychosphere? *This episode was originally uploaded to YouTube on September 8, 2024 * Timothy E. Eastman, PhD, plasma and space physics, and philosophy: Dr. Eastman's scholarly works, including three books and over 100 research papers, encompass research and consulting in space physics, plasma applications, space weather and education. Having realized the pervasive impact of multi-level processes and emergence in the natural world, he began to critically assess the implications of new developments in science and philosophy. Dr. Eastman's major work, Untying the Gordian Knot: Process, Reality, and Context (Lexington, 2020), synthesizes recent developments in philosophy, physics, logic, process thought, and biosemiotics, and contributes to a new natural philosophy for the 21st century. https://plasmas.org Bernard D.

Despite typically being scientifically-minded individuals, many clinicians have often wondered about aspects of the human experience that defy rationale explanation, but yet feel profoundly meaningful.  Psychiatrist and author, Dr. Bernard Beitman, joins us for a discussion of many of the core themes in his book Meaningful Coincidences: How & Why Synchronicity and Serendipity Happen.  In this conversation we cover:  what has driven Dr. Beitman's interest in researching coincidencethe necessary and sufficient conditions or characteristics to call an experience a formal coincidencethe challenge and opportunity of determining "meaning" in the context of coincidences given the subjective nature of meaning as well as the observation that meaning that change or emerge over timea framework for determining meaning in the context of synchronicity & coincidenceshow to navigate the challenge of the potential presence of symptoms of psychosis (e.g., delusions of reference, mania) in the context of appropriately evaluating and integrating meaningful coincidences into clinical workhow we can sit with the distress & uncertainty that typically comes with powerful experiences of coincidence and synchronicity Dr. Beitman's response to those who take a purely “actuarial” or statistical approach to coincidencesthe importance of attuning to the emotional valence of an experience to determine it's form, function & meaninghow therapists can help their clients leverage coincidences in their day-to-day lives/therapeutic journeythoughts on the yet undiscovered psychological substrate or plane/dimension of existence (e.g., field of consciousness) that would need to be in place for coincidences to have maximum meaning the potential for psychedelics to be able to expand our capacity to expand our ability to connect seeming unrelated objects or event Dr. Bernard Beitman attended Yale Medical School graduating in 1964.

Dr. Bernard Beitman is a psychiatrist, author, and founder of the Coincidence Project. Throughout his life, he has observed and documented the patterns of meaningful coincidences. Coincidences, says Beitman, are an expression of the mind's relationship with the environment, and he offers ways to make use of them when they occur. According to Beitman, all individuals experience meaningful coincidences, and the frequency of those experiences grows with increased attention. Drawing on his career and the work of Carl Jung, he explains why he believes coincidences are more than statistical probabilities or acts of fate. Instead, he suggests that coincidences, “illuminate the hidden currents that connect and unite us.” On this episode, Dr. Weil, Dr. Maizes, and Dr. Beitman examine the differences and similarities between coincidences, synchronicity, and serendipity. They discuss common examples and draw from personal experiences.

A comprehensive exploration of the potential of coincidences to expand our understanding of reality and inspire psychological, interpersonal, and spiritual growth• Presents a complete catalog of coincidence patterns with numerous illustrative examples• Defines the many uses and potential pitfalls of coincidences and highlights the situations in which they are most likely to occur• Explores the range of explanations for coincidences, including the psychosphere as the medium through which many coincidences take placeEach of us has more to do with creating coincidences than we think. In this broad exploration of the potential of coincidences to expand our understanding of reality, psychiatrist Bernard Beitman, M.D., explores why and how coincidences, synchronicity, and serendipity happen and how to use these common occurrences to inspire psychological, interpersonal, and spiritual growth.Through a complete catalog of coincidence patterns with numerous illustrative examples, Dr. Beitman clarifies the relationship between synchronicity and serendipity and dissects the “anatomy of a coincidence.” He defines coincidence types through their two fundamental constituents--mental events and physical events. He analyzes the many uses of meaningful coincidences as well as their potential problems. He explains how you will see patterns guiding your life decisions and learn to expect that coincidences are more likely to occur during life stressors, as well as times of high emotion and strong need, which helps you be ready to use them when they occur.Exploring the crucial role of personal agency--individual thought and action--in synchronicities and serendipities, Dr. Beitman shows that there's much more behind these occurrences than “fate” or “randomness.”Bernard Beitman, M.D., a graduate of Yale Medical School, did his psychiatric residency at Stanford University.
