In this episode of The Missing Secret Podcast, Kelly explains what she would tell the 20 year old version of herself regarding how to be successful. She starts out talking about the immense power of being a grower and a learner from a young age. Her dad turned her on to reading when she was 13 years old. And that's where she got it. And it played a significant factor in her life. Approaching life from a curiosity standpoint and learning whatever she could. In seeking people with wisdom beyond her own wisdom. That has been the hallmark trait of Kelly Hatfield. The other advice she would give the 20-year-old version of herself is to understand how the human mind works. When John taught Kelly the think it be it methodology when she was 44 years old, it was life transforming.The key thing she learned was that 95% of her daily thoughts and actions are unconscious. Once you really think about it and appreciate the profound implications, your life is never the same. John and Kelly talk about how lots of people understand this at a surface level. But do nothing about it. But those that really get it, and see its implications, are all about learning think it be it. During this episode John talks about the impact of the think it be it methodology has on one's identity. He talks about how we are all created haphazardly. Things have happened in our life that were both good and bad that has created good traits and bad traits. And we were raised by our parents in a certain way. But virtually none of it was intentional.Even how our parents raised us was largely unintentional. They just did the best they could. And how we were raised was certainly unintentional from our standpoint. We had nothing to do with it. That's why it's so cool to be able to re-create yourself with intention and clarity. Create the IDEAL YOU. Then when you create that in the CONSCIOUS MIND, you feed it every day to the subconscious mind through repetition. Then that identity is who you become. Because that's when it impacts your thoughts and actions automatically without thinking. About the Hosts:John MitchellJohn's story is pretty amazing. After spending 20 years as an entrepreneur, John was 50 years old but wasn't as successful as he thought he should be. To rectify that, he decided to find the “top book in the world” on SUCCESS and apply that book literally Word for Word to his life. That Book is Think & Grow Rich. The book says there's a SECRET for success, but the author only gives you half the secret. John figured out the full secret and a 12 minute a day technique to apply it.When John applied his 12 minute a day technique to his life, he saw his yearly income go to over $5 million a year, after 20 years of $200k - 300k per year. The 25 times increase happened because John LEVERAGED himself by applying science to his life.His daily technique works because it focuses you ONLY on what moves the needle, triples your discipline, and consistently generates new business ideas every week. This happens because of 3 key aspects of the leveraging process.John's technique was profiled on the cover of Time Magazine. He teaches it at the University of Texas' McCombs School of Business, which is one the TOP 5 business schools in the country. He is also the “mental coach” for the head athletic coaches at the University of Texas as well.Reach out to John at john@thinkitbeit.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-mitchell-76483654/Kelly HatfieldKelly Hatfield is an entrepreneur at heart.

An extraordinary couple, my clients, Cody & Cristina join us to share their miraculous experiences as a direct result of understanding and loving their own individual inner-SELVES, first. With a new baby on the way, Cristina was a week late going into natural labor.....That is, until we dug into the depths of her UNconscious mind to see what was REALLY stopping her from experiencing the childbirth of her dreams!! At first glance, Cristina's delayed labor seemed to be caused by her stress and circumstances. Yet, in acutality, it was something much deeper that she could not see. It was hidden blindspots of emotional trauma stemming from her past..... It's never ever what meets the eye, it's REALLY what meets the brain! What meets the brain is UNconscious FEAR, which causes an inability to get what we truly want in life, to feel a sense of FREEDOM & HAPPINESS. Healthy, happy, loving relationship are created through profoundly understanding YourSELF and others, while exercising mutually sympathetic LISTENING. Meaning, hearing and allowing the other to freely express themselves with no preconceived notions, judgement or criticism. Actually LISTENING to what they are saying, NOT what you are hearing in your own head! All the while, never taking anything personally!!!! Cristina shares a great example of this on our podcast! Easier said, than done. But, learning and training to actively listen is radically worth it because it creates a rapturously intimate LOVE connection that penetrates the depths of your SOUL.

We start by talking about how physics and psychology split in the approach to the brain; the mind-body problem; and whether our brains are like computers. We talk about perception and awareness, visual illusions and art, how we go from seeing to recognizing and to predicting, the relationship between emotion and cognition, and how we get unified moments of conscious awareness. We discuss the role of the prefrontal cortex, learning, the evolution of the brain, theories of consciousness, and the hard problem of consciousness. We talk about mental disorders, irrational decisions, and the design of AI systems. Finally, we discuss morality and the human condition, the unification of psychology and physics, and potential laws of biology. -- A HUGE THANK YOU TO MY PATRONS/SUPPORTERS: PER HELGE LARSEN, JERRY MULLER, HANS FREDRIK SUNDE, BERNARDO SEIXAS, OLAF ALEX, ADAM KESSEL, MATTHEW WHITINGBIRD, ARNAUD WOLFF, TIM HOLLOSY, HENRIK AHLENIUS, FILIP FORS CONNOLLY, DAN DEMETRIOU, ROBERT WINDHAGER, RUI INACIO, ZOOP, MARCO NEVES, COLIN HOLBROOK, PHIL KAVANAGH, SAMUEL ANDREEFF, FRANCIS FORDE, TIAGO NUNES, FERGAL CUSSEN, HAL HERZOG, NUNO MACHADO, JONATHAN LEIBRANT, JOÃO LINHARES, STANTON T, SAMUEL CORREA, ERIK HAINES, MARK SMITH, JOÃO EIRA, TOM HUMMEL, SARDUS FRANCE, DAVID SLOAN WILSON, YACILA DEZA-ARAUJO, ROMAIN ROCH, DIEGO LONDOÑO CORREA, YANICK PUNTER, CHARLOTTE BLEASE, NICOLE BARBARO, ADAM HUNT, PAWEL OSTASZEWSKI, NELLEKE BAK, GUY MADISON, GARY G HELLMANN, SAIMA AFZAL, ADRIAN JAEGGI, PAULO TOLENTINO, JOÃO BARBOSA, JULIAN PRICE, EDWARD HALL, HEDIN BRØNNER, DOUGLAS FRY, FRANCA BORTOLOTTI, GABRIEL PONS CORTÈS, URSULA LITZCKE, SCOTT, ZACHARY FISH, TIM DUFFY, SUNNY SMITH, JON WISMAN, WILLIAM BUCKNER, PAUL-GEORGE ARNAUD, LUKE GLOWACKI, GEORGIOS THEOPHANOUS, CHRIS WILLIAMSON, PETER WOLOSZYN, DAVID WILLIAMS, DIOGO COSTA, ANTON ERIKSSON, CHARLES MOREY, ALEX CHAU, AMAURI MARTÍNEZ, CORALIE CHEVALLIER, BANGALORE ATHEISTS, LARRY D.

SYNOPSIS:Following the enthusiastic feedback from Philip's inaugural appearance on the podcast with his episode "Embodied Intelligence: Wholeness, Sensitivity, and the Pelvic Bowl," we knew we had to bring him back! If you haven't listened to his episode yet, we highly recommend you do! In this recorded version of our live Q&A event, step into the world of the body's intelligence – delve deep into the intricacies of embodiment where our audience had the opportunity to interact directly with Philip and Ali. Enjoy a grounding meditation to start it off, offered up by Phlip as a unifying and grounding exercise as well as a basis for questions to arise. Some of the questions posed: How do you experience the thought or the mind of the body?Could you discuss the difference between our conventional understanding of vigilance and the vigilance of the present moment, and how we might underestimate its potential significance in our lives?What does it mean if we open ourselves to the information that's available and we think with all of our senses, not just our brain? Please talk about how you understand that.What is the fear or resistance to just turn ourselves over to the body as the medium for knowing the world?Philip, where are you mapping the body, considering the balance between conscious and unconscious processes? How can we navigate our conscious mind to avoid potential pitfalls? Can you elaborate on mastering the mind within the broader context, where the heart houses the mind?I felt comfortable and truthful when I was in my head, but descending to my heart felt like entering a dogfight. There's a constant tug of war between being present and feeling pulled away by a powerful force that insists I shouldn't be here. It's a struggle filled with violence as I try to stay grounded. While there's relief in being in my body, it feels temporary, like I can't stay for long. How can I navigate this internal conflict and find a sense of home within myself?What can you say of the differences or advantages of spending time relating with people living from their head and those who are living from a greater sense of wholeness and embodiment? How do we be with others from that perspective?I'm curious about your perspective on the phenomenon of projection. After spending time with someone, I often find myself experiencing emotions that I don't believe are my own. For instance, if I'm with someone who appears sad, I might leave the interaction feeling sad myself. This seems to blur the line between feeling and thinking, as I'm left questioning why I'm experiencing certain emotions. How do you understand and navigate this process of projection?How do you approach or reconcile this heightened awareness of the Earth's pain as you become more connected to your body and the Earth itself?Regarding the concept of wholeness, groundedness, and centeredness. During the exercise, as we delved deeper towards the pelvic bowl, there was a profound sense of resonance and silence that felt ancient and powerful. Can you speak to the significance of this resonance and the profound silence experienced in that moment, where it felt like one unified body rather than individual bodiesTo be an angel to the podcast, click here: To read more about the podcast, click here: MORE ALI MEZEY:Website: https://www.alimezey.comPersonal Geometry® and the Magic of Mat Work Course information:Transgenerational Healing Films: FOR MORE PHILIP SHEPHERD: https://embodiedpresent.comBIO: Philip Shepherd is recognized as a leader in the global embodiment movement. He is the creator of The Embodied Present Process™ (TEPP), which provides both potent insights into how our culture desensitizes the body, and a series of over 150 practices to help people renew their sensitivity to the world and reclaim their calm, centered presence in it. He shares TEPP worldwide through in-person workshops and Facilitators Training, and has articulated the need for a new, more embodied way of being in two books: Radical Wholeness and New Self, New World. Both books identify the causes, perils and challenges of our culture's disembodiment. Philip's personal path to embodiment includes a two-year journey as a teenager, during which he traveled alone by bicycle through Europe, the Middle East, Iran, India and Japan. He has also studied classical Japanese Noh Theater; co-founded an interdisciplinary theater company; written two internationally produced plays and a television documentary; designed and built several houses; co-founded an arts magazine called Onion; played lead roles on stages in London, New York, Chicago and Toronto; and earned a reputation as a coach, both with individual clients seeking a deeper experience of embodiment, and for corporate clients seeking to improve their presentation skills.

Enjoy a profound meditation gifted by Philip Shepherd at the beginning of our recent live Q&A event as a grounding exercise and basis for profound state-shifts through the geography of the body. We've provided a stand-alone version of the mediation for those of you who want to use it on a regular basis.This meditation offers a practice to explore the body's intelligence and challenge cultural beliefs about the supremacy of the mind over the body. By focusing on our centre of awareness, and connecting with the fluidity of the body's inner ocean, the meditation guides participants to center themselves first in the head, then in the heart, in the tanden and finally on the pelvic floor.Each centering allows for a unique experience and awareness of the world from that altered perspective. Participants are encouraged to soften into each experience, notice how it feels, and label it with a word to aid in remembrance. This practice offers an opportunity to ground oneself, explore different centers of awareness within the body, and attune to the world within and around them.To be an angel to the podcast, click here: To read more about the podcast, click here: MORE ALI MEZEY:Website: https://www.alimezey.comPersonal Geometry® and the Magic of Mat Work Course information:Transgenerational Healing Films: FOR MORE PHILIP SHEPHERD: https://embodiedpresent.comBIO: Philip Shepherd is recognized as a leader in the global embodiment movement.

In this introspective episode, we embark on a journey into the realm of self-affirmation and the profound impact it can have on our lives. With a thoughtful exploration of Louise Hay's seminal work, "Mirror Work," we uncover the art of positive self-dialogue and the magic of facing our own reflection with kindness and love. I've decided to start creating some shorter solo episodes for you -- not only to get to know me better, but also to have the opportunity to have some digestible content in shorter form. Don't worry--the longer-form interviews with my amazing guests are still part of the program :) Join us as we delve into the practical steps outlined in Hay's book that guide us through 21 days of meaningful exercises, designed to foster self-compassion and cultivate a nurturing relationship with our inner selves. We discuss how affirmations can rewire our brains, change our thought patterns, and ultimately, lead us to a life of greater confidence and fulfillment. Whether you're a long-time advocate of self-affirmation or a curious newcomer, this episode is a heartfelt invitation to discover the transformative power of speaking your truth into the mirror. Tune in to learn how to harness the strength of your words and begin your journey towards self-love and empowerment.

The Manomaya kosha is the layer of our being that represents the intellect and the conscious mind. This is the level of our conscious thoughts. The Manomaya kosha is one of the most important koshas, because of the huge effect it has on us. Because the mind is so powerful, it can affect all the other 4 koshas dramatically. We can think of the Manomaya kosha as the pivotal centerpiece in the 5 kosha model. This is why, as yoga therapists, it is important to ensure the Manomaya kosha is healthy and balanced through specific practices. In this episode, Brandt shares the role the Manomaya Kosha plays in our mental and physical health and the two ways we work with the Manomaya Kosha as yoga therapists. Brandt then takes us on an exploration of chapter one of the yoga sutras and how we can apply the teachings in the yoga sutras to the Manomaya kosha personally and in a therapeutic context. This was a clip taken from inside the Manomaya Kosha Module of our Yoga Therapy Foundations Program.

This is episode 1 of a 4-part special series on mental health with psychiatrist Dr. Paul Conti, M.D., who trained at Stanford School of Medicine and completed his residency at Harvard Medical School before founding his clinical practice, the Pacific Premiere Group. Dr. Conti defines mental health in actionable terms and describes the foundational elements of the self, including the structure and function of the unconscious and conscious mind, which give rise to all our thoughts, behaviors and emotions. He also explains how to explore and address the root causes of anxiety, low confidence, negative internal narratives, over-thinking and how our unconscious defense mechanisms operate. This episode provides a foundational roadmap to assess your sense of self and mental health. It offers tools to reshape negative emotions, thought patterns and behaviors — either through self-exploration or with a licensed professional. The subsequent three episodes in this special series explore additional tools to further understand and improve your mental health.

In part 2 of this rewiring series, I will be discussing the conscious mind, or your frontal cortex. The conscious brain only controls 5% of the daily thoughts and behaviors. Its sole purpose is to take commands and implement them. The conscious mind is what we're actively thinking about, the subconscious is what we've learned and stored in our brain. Which means that the conscious mind can only process what is happening IN THE MOMENT. This contains all of the thoughts, memories, feelings, and wishes that we are aware of in any given moment. It can get overwhelmed easy, and cannot hold as much information as the subconscious mind. Goes to sleep with you. When you wake up and make breakfast, your conscious mind is making breakfast but your subconscious mind is what will control the actions (grabbing ingredients, knowing your way around the kitchen, how to not burn at the stove etc).

The two hottest topics in tech right now are the rise of generative AI and, with Apple's recent push into spatial computing, the mainstreaming of augmented reality. Will silicon-based machines develop sentience? Will human experience extend into virtual worlds? These distinct technologies may eventually blend to spawn a surprising future, as our “real” world becomes digitally enhanced and our machines behave increasingly like humans. Today, a provocative discussion with some big (human) thinkers: Steven Johnson, visiting scholar at Google Labs and author of ”Extra Life,” “Where Good Ideas Come from,” and “How We Got to Now”; philosopher and cognitive scientist David Chalmers, author of ”The Conscious Mind” and “Reality+;” and Betaworks founder and AI investor John Borthwick. • Want to learn more about our executive membership?

Welcome back to Season 10 of The Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast, where we connect the science-based evidence behind social and emotional learning (that's finally being taught in our schools today) and emotional intelligence training (used in our modern workplaces) for improved well-being, achievement, productivity and results—using what I saw as the missing link (since we weren't taught this when we were growing up in school), the application of practical neuroscience. I'm Andrea Samadi, an author, and an educator with a passion for learning and launched this podcast 5 years ago with the goal of bringing ALL the leading experts together (in one place) to uncover the most current research that would back up how the brain learns best, taking us ALL to new, and often unimaginable heights. Today we're going to go back to where we left off with EPISODE #291 “Unleashing the Power of Our Subconscious Mind” where we covered: ✔ A review of where our podcast began, and where we are going. Each episode we create, it becomes clearer to me that social and emotional skills are important for understanding who we are, and are crucial for propelling us forward. Social and emotional competencies form the backbone of who we are (our identity), along with our character, and I'd like to continue to uncover how science can strengthen this understanding, (with the topics I chosen listed in the diagram in the show notes) expanding our awareness as we move towards our goals, or whatever it is we are working on. I remember professor of psychology, Maurice Elias summed it up well when he spoke about where SEL began for him in the mid 1970s. He saw a need for these SEL skills back then, (decades before they were infused into our classrooms) saying these skills “could propel someone forward” but he mentioned the importance of “character to steer our direction.” I've not forgotten about Character, it's an important topic that I've been writing about in my spare time. We'll cover the basic character traits in the future, showing were character fits into this equation. I know there's a lot to the formula for success, and I don't want to leave any stones unturned. For today's episode #293, we are going back to the basics, with the Fundamentals that started for me with those 12 teenagers all those years ago. When I was speaking with Brian Proctor, on our last episode, #292,[i] it hit me that some concepts we had both heard over and over again (like the hour glass that Brian put on the cover of his book that represented staying in the present moment- I had forgotten that's what it meant. I would have told a story about it representing the fact we only have a certain amount of time to live our life, and to live each moment to the fullest) reminding me of the importance of reviewing these lessons. Or some of the phrases we used to hear over and over again like “you don't need to know HOW you are going to do something, just figure out what it is that you want, and the how will show up.” All of the concepts that we heard, that yielded results for anyone who studied and applied them, were ideas that were simple enough to understand, yet most people never followed through with them. This is what Brian Proctor wrote about in his book, and there were many lessons he learned that went much deeper than the usual topics like goal-setting, or confidence building, but there was a foundational level that everyone started with, and I'd say it was with those Fundamental lessons that we taught to the teens. We recently covered “Diving Deeper into Our Subconscious Mind”[ii] (which was the 4th tape the teens learned). Today we will cover some of the important concepts of “Using the Conscious Mind and Our Senses” and in a couple of days (when I've written the next episode, we'll cover) “Going Beyond Our Senses: Using the Faculties of Our Mind.” This will provide us all with the solid background of these success principles that I saw working for so many people over the years. I even heard from Ryan O'Neill, from EPISODE 203[iii] recently. He's the paranormal researcher I worked with years ago, who took these ideas and used them for his family, as well as for his own results, where he skyrocketed to high levels of achievement with his work, but I would say his results were predictable. He did things a certain way. Would you know he's still reading the book I sent him in the mail (from Arizona to Scotland) in 2013, and tabbed 3 specific chapters, explaining the importance of reading Wallace Wattles “The Science of Getting Rich” book, chapters 4/14/7 in that order. I'll cover this book, (that inspired Rhonda Byrnes to create the movie, The Secret) on my next deep dive at the end of the year, but if you look at Ryan's book, from the photo is the show notes, you can tell that he actually READS it! And I don't need to see the book to know this, as his results tell me what's happening in his mind. It's all begins with this picture where you use your imagination factor to create whatever it is you want, in your mind. I didn't cover the part where we think in pictures, because I think I've covered this enough on the podcast with our review of The Silva Method.[iv] WHAT SHOULD WE UNDERSTAND ABOUT OUR CONSCIOUS MIND, so we can be sure we are using it to achieve results like Ryan O'Neill and thousands of others? 1: LEARN TO USE OUR 5 SENSES, BUT KEEP IN MIND THEY ARE LIMITED: Imagine your mind with your conscious mind as the top part of your head, the subconscious is the bottom, and your body is below this circle. Attached to your conscious mind is your 5 senses, that you use to see, hear, smell, taste and touch the outside world with. We also have the higher faculties of the mind (our ability to reason, our intuition, perception, will, memory and imagination) that help us to go beyond our 5 senses. Why would we want to think beyond our five senses? This is where David Eagleman's book, The Brain, or his podcast, Inner Cosmos, ties the science to something I had heard often over the years, but the way that Eagleman describes it, completely made sense to me. He explains that our biology allows us to “see” certain wavelengths but we actually only see “a tenth of a trillionth of the light waves out there”[v] meaning there is much more than our human eyes can see. He expands this idea and dives into an explanation of how “radio waves, x-rays, gamma rays all have different frequencies, and we are completely unaware of them because our biology wasn't designed that way.” (Inner Cosmos Podcast). He says that “our brains are sampling just a little bit of the world” so I translated this back to what we taught those teens. We told them “don't look at what you can see with your eyes (whether it be poor grades, sports results, money in your bank account), just be open to the fact that you can change what you see, by doing things a certain way, completely changing your results. 2: REMEMBER WE HAVE THE AMAZING ABILITY TO THINK and it's the conscious mind that we call the thinking mind. It hit me while listening to Brian Proctor's interview, that when his Dad was asking us “what do you really want” he wanted to see if we had the ability to answer him. Could we think new and original thoughts, or would we just look at him and say “I don't know.” This ability to think is what will determine our results in life, and like I said with Ryan O'Neill, his ability to think made it easy to predict the results he would have in television, by the fact he is still studying, learning, reading and applying what he is learning for these new results. It's in our conscious mind that we have the ability to THINK new thoughts, or take ideas and IMAGINE them on the screen of our minds. But how many of us create NEW ideas? Look around you right now, and notice what others are doing. Ask them questions, and see what's on their mind? I remember while studying the basics of Neuroscience with Mark Waldman, he would often say, “please interrupt me, and challenge things that I'm teaching you” as this would show that his students are thinking critically, and not just taking notes. 3: USE YOUR 5 SENSES TO GATHER INFORMATION, AND THEN GET CREATIVE taking your thoughts or ideas to a new level, using your 6 higher faculties. Imagine an idea coming into your mind. You can sense the idea, and then think about it. Do you like the idea? Does it make sense to you? You have the ability to reject an idea (using your reasoning faculty), but if you like the idea, and you accept it, maybe you even love this idea, you now send it over to your subconscious mind, that we went deep into on EP 291[vi]. This is the creative process where you take an idea (a thought), spend some time in thought about it, decide you like the idea, and with emotion, you turn it over to your subconscious mind where the magic begins. This is how Proctor taught the teens to turn their C grades into A grades (by teaching them to see an A grade with their imagination FIRST). Once they could see the new grade, they started taking the actions needed to actually earn this A grade, but it started with their ability to put this conscious idea in their mind first. They had to THINK! We heard so many stories like this over the years, especially in sports. A golfer described how he would picture the golf ball going into the cup in his imagination first, and evening hearing it spinning around. PUTTING OUR UNDERSTANDING OF THE CONSCIOUS MIND INTO PRACTICE: Take out a notepad and sketch out the diagram of the conscious mind, subconscious mind and the body (that was created by Dr. Thurman Fleet in 1934). Here's my sketch below. Now start to THINK. What do you really want? Write out YOUR IDEA, circle it, and if you resonate with what you have written, add emotion to it, and see what comes to mind when you READ what you've written. If it's a goal that stretches you, like we've mentioned before, you might read it and think “this is too far off from where I am right now” but it's here we will take the higher faculties of the mind (next episode) to help change this discord. But for now, just notice how you feel. Use your conscious mind to either accept the new idea, or reject it. When I first wrote on my notepad that I wanted to make neuroscience simple for educators and students, I remember almost wanting to hide my notebook, and not tell anyone this is what I wanted to do. It just seemed so far off from where I was, and I wasn't sure how I would ever do this. Now, I receive emails from leaders around the world, looking to see how they can add simple neuroscience into their curriculum. It just boggles my mind that it started with writing out an idea, and then taking action on the idea, until finally, one day, you look up, and you are living what you wrote. To review and close out this episode on “Using the Conscious Mind and the 5 Senses” we covered: ✔ 3 concepts about our conscious mind and our senses to help us to THINK. ✔ An activity encouraging us to write out something we REALLY want, and see how we feel about this NEW goal or idea. This will prepare us for our next episode, where we will then look at the 6 faculties of our mind (our reason, intuition, perception, our will, memory and imagination) to help us to see beyond our senses. I hope this lesson has helped you to see some of the fundamentals that I've seen take people to incredible heights. Brian Proctor outlined some other lessons learned on our last interview, and I wasn't surprised at the reaction to his episode. I always love hearing how these episodes are helping you, and Brian's interview was one I'll never forget. I'll see you in a few days for a look into the faculties of our mind, and will close with a quote reminding us to THINK. If you don't like what you see in your world, (whether you're a student, and want to change your grades, or an athlete or a salesperson who wants to change their results, it all begins with the conscious mind, and our ability to THINK, and CREATE the results we really want in our life.

Read the full transcript here. What does philosophy have to say about virtual reality (VR)? Under what conditions is "normal" reality preferable to VR? To what extent are VR experiences "real"? How likely is it that we're living in a simulation? What implications would the discovery that we're living in a simulation have for our beliefs about reality? How common is Bayesian thinking among philosophers? How should we think about identity over time if selves can be split or duplicated? What might it look like for our conception of identity to undergo a "fall from Eden"? What do people mean when they say that consciousness is an illusion? Finding a grand unified theory of physics seems at least in principle the sort of thing that science can do, even if we haven't done it yet; but can science even in principle solve the hard problem of consciousness? Might consciousness just be a fundamental law of the universe, an axiom which we must accept but for which there might be no explanation? Is consciousness needed in order to attain certain levels of biological evolution? How conscious (or not) are our current AI models? Statistically speaking, what are the most prevalent views held by philosophers?David Chalmers is University Professor of Philosophy and Neural Science and co-director of the Center for Mind, Brain, and Consciousness at New York University. He is the author of The Conscious Mind (1996) and Reality+ (2022). He is known for formulating the "hard problem" of consciousness, which inspired Tom Stoppard's play The Hard Problem, and for the idea of the "extended mind," which says that the tools we use can become parts of our minds.

“Every day we are influenced in countless ways by the world around us, and most of this flies completely under the radar of our conscious awareness” From Neuroscientist and Stanford Professor, David Eagleman's, The Brain: The Story of You. On today's episode #291 on “Unleashing the Power of Our Subconscious Mind” we will cover: ✔ A review of where our podcast began, and where we are going. ✔ The importance of understanding our subconscious mind as it relates to our results. ✔ A look back at the history of this understanding, that goes back to visionaries in science and the arts (Francis Bacon, Descartes, etc). ✔ The unusual results Andrea saw with 12 teenagers who studied this concept, catching her attention, in the late 1990s. ✔ 6 STEPS you can use today, to expand your awareness, and help you to tap into the power of your subconscious mind. Welcome back to Season 10 of The Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast, where we connect the science-based evidence behind social and emotional learning (that's finally being taught in our schools today) and emotional intelligence training (used in our modern workplaces) for improved well-being, achievement, productivity and results—using what I saw as the missing link (since we weren't taught this when we were growing up in school), the application of practical neuroscience. I'm Andrea Samadi, an author, and an educator with a passion for learning and launched this podcast 5 years ago with the goal of bringing ALL the leading experts together (in one place) to uncover the most current research that would back up how the brain learns best, taking us ALL to new, and often unimaginable heights. Welcome back! For those who tune in each week, you might have noticed this was the FIRST time we've taken a break with this podcast since we launched. It's always been important for me to produce content every week, but this past month, we travelled to some places where there wasn't always internet, so I decided it would be a good time to take a break, and think about where we began with this podcast, and where we are going, creating a clear vision moving forward, and putting our season theme of Part 2 of Going Back to the Basics into practice. If you look at the image in the show notes, you can see where the vision for this podcast began by making a connection with the six social and emotional learning competencies[i] that you'll be familiar with if you are in the field of education, or paying attention to the research. These competencies include Growth Mindset, Responsible Decision-Making, Self-Awareness, Social-Awareness, Self-Regulation and Developing Relationships, and hundreds of research studies[ii] have confirmed positive outcomes for our next generation of students, adults and communities who implement these competencies. Instead of covering social and emotional learning topics only for this podcast, (that I saw publishers begin to cover more thoroughly than I ever could on my own, using their research to prove efficacy), I decided to connect what I saw as “the missing link” for health, well-being, productivity and achievement on this podcast—an understanding of our brain, that I call Neuroscience 101. Reflecting back on almost 300 episodes written, recorded and produced from June 2019 to today, it's easy to notice the growth that has unfolded along the way, that I share on EPISODE #279[iii] on “Lessons Learned After Hitting the 300,000 Download Mile Marker,” or “The Top 10 ALL Time Most Listened to Episodes on Podcast.” I can't miss out on EPISODE #233[iv] where we covered the “Top 12 YouTube Interviews” as chosen by YOU! These are all good ones to review. In addition to the growth noticed over the years from feedback that YOU, the listener would send me, I also noticed a shift with the content in our interviews over the seasons. In our early interviews, we were introduced to books, ideas and strategies that would orient us to the understanding of the brain and help us to break down topics like improving student success with Dr. John Dunlosky's[v] research, or trauma in our schools, that we saw with EPISODE #168[vi] with Dr. Bruce Perry and his book What Happened to You, or EPISODE #60[vii] with Dr. Daniel Siegel on “The Benefits Behind a Meditation Practice.” We moved through the research, season by season, covering the topics that I thought would help us to all gain a better understanding of the mind-brain-body connection. Then, the focus turned towards health and wellness in 2020, which was an unexpected turn for me, but one that made a huge impact on me personally, allowing me to test out certain products, like the Fisher Wallace Brain Stimulator[viii], the Whoop[ix] fitness tracker, take a visit Dr. Daniel Amen's Clinic[x] for a SPECT image brain scan, or even by learning how to improve Heart Rate Variability with the Lief Wearable HRV Device.[xi] While producing these episodes, I was implementing the ideas myself, and often times along with my family members, for improved results. You can scan through the episode home page here or review the season descriptions below. Season 1: Provides you with the tools, resources and ideas to implement proven strategies backed by the most current neuroscience research to help you to achieve the long-term gains of implementing a social and emotional learning program in your school, or emotional intelligence program in your workplace. Season 2: Features high level guests who tie in social, emotional and cognitive strategies for high performance in schools, sports and the workplace. Season 3: Ties in some of the top motivational business books and guest with the most current brain research to take your results and productivity to the next level. Season 4: Brings in positive mental health and wellness strategies to help cope with the stresses of life, improving cognition, productivity and results. Season 5: Continues with the theme of mental health and well-being with strategies for implementing practical neuroscience to improve results for schools, sports and the workplace. Season 6: The Future of Educational Neuroscience and its impact on our next generation. Diving deeper into the Science of Learning. Season 7: Brain Health and Well-Being (Focused on Physical and Mental Health). Season 8: Brain Health and Learning (Focused on How An Understanding of Our Brain Can Improve Learning in Ourselves (adults, teachers, workers) as well as future generations of learners. Season 9: Strengthening Our Foundations: Neuroscience 101: Back to the Basics PART 1 Season 10: Strengthening Our Foundations: Neuroscience 101: Back to the Basics PART 2 You'll see that while our first nine seasons were focused on orienting ourselves to the basics of neuroscience, Season 10 and moving forward I'd like to narrow our focus to improved mental and physical health, (building on the Top Health Staples) to understanding our consciousness and our identity, and help us to become crystal clear about who we are, why we are here, and what legacy we want to leave for others. You'll see the guests we have coming up will drive our understanding of these topics forward, hopefully helping us to become better versions of ourselves, with the idea that when we arrive to where we want to go personally and professionally, that we next create a plan for the legacy that we'd like to leave behind to help others. For today's episode #291 we are going to pick up where we left off with our last episode where we dove into Stanford Professor and Neuroscientist, David Eagleman's work. Let's go back to where we left off the end of May with EPISODE #290[xii] and dive into today's episode on “Unleashing the Power of Our Subconscious Mind.” In Chapter 1 of David Eagleman's The Brain: The Story of You, he explains how our identity is a moving target. He says: “Who you are depends on where you've been. Your brain is a relentless shape-shifter, constantly rewriting its own circuitry—and because your experiences are unique, so are the vast, detailed patterns in your neural networks. Because they continue to change your whole life, your identity is a moving target: it never reaches an endpoint.” David Eagleman's, The Brain: The Story of You. THE CONSCIOUS MIND: In our last episode, we uncovered from David Eagleman's work that the “conscious mind-the part you think of as you—is really the smallest part of what's happening in your brain” making me take a look at the graphic on The Levels of Awareness, that I created after reading an article called “The Easy Problems of Consciousness”[xiii] from National Geographic. If we look (all the way to the right) at the FULLY aware column, that's like the 10% of the tip of the iceberg that we can see consisting of our ability to THINK. To truly discover WHO we ARE, we'll need to dive into the depths of our subconscious mind (under the surface of the water) to learn and explore more about the other 90% and peel back the layers, of who we truly are. FINDING ANSWERS BY DIVING INTO OUR SUBCONSCIOUS MIND: You'll notice that we will be spending more time moving forward looking at ways we can improve our levels of awareness, so we can take this knowledge, to eventually help others, after improving ourselves. This will be the key to building a strong legacy that will exist long after you move from this physical plane, that we call earth. And if we want to improve our own results in this process, we've got to open up the keyhole to our levels of awareness. Imagine a tiny dot expanding as your mind expands. Or instead of peeking through the tiny keyhole of a doorway you want opened, blast open your mind and kick the whole door down instead. Or forget about the door, and break a window to gain entry into this new awareness that you'd like to achieve. This all begins by understanding who we are, (we are not just our name) and we can expand ourselves even further as we learn how to use this marvelous power of our mind that J.B Rhine, from Duke University would say is “the greatest power of all creation.” As you are listening to this, doesn't it make you want to knock down some doors (blasting through some of YOUR subconscious blocks)? Things that you're aware have been holding you back from where you KNOW you're supposed to be? These are only your conscious blocks. Like I've heard people say “I want to stop self-sabotaging” with their health or relationships. There are some parts of us we are consciously aware of, but other blocks, might take some time to reveal themselves. It just blows my mind that something so powerful, (our sub-conscious mind- or all that exists below the water level with that iceberg photo) that controls so much of who we are, is not taught to us in school. It's here that I think some of the previous work and study I did in the seminar industry can help us to understand what David Eagleman was talking about in his book, The Brain when he said that the “conscious mind is the smallest part of what's happening in your brain.” This was at the heart of EVERY seminar I've ever attended. If we REALLY want to understand who we are, and be in control of where we are going, understanding the 90% of us, where our beliefs, creativity, emotions, habits, intuition and values all exist, is crucial if we want to be in control of the future that we want to create. GOING BACK TO THE BASICS: THE HISTORY If we go back to our Think and Grow Rich Book Study, that we covered at the start of 2022, Napoleon Hill wrote a whole chapter on the subconscious mind (Chapter 13) that we covered on EPISODE #195[xiv] and then he reminds us to re-read Chapter 4 on Auto-Suggestion, which is the medium that influences the subconscious mind. This book was first written in 1937, showing us how far back this concept goes. Since this time, there are many others who cover this topic just as thoroughly as Napoleon Hill, like author Brian Tracey[xv], who explains why this understanding is important on his blog, in his books and all of the seminars he conducted. Tracey shares that “since your subconscious mind has such a great amount of control over your positive and negative behaviors, the key is to train your brain to produce more positive behaviors.” If you've ever read Brian Tracey's work, you'll know it's all centered around productivity and success. The subconscious mind and how to take control of it, runs at the heart of his message. In my early days of working in the seminar industry, and learning from the top speakers around the world, I saw that this concept wasn't new. I was even given a box full of material to study, joining many prominent people in the fields of science or the arts, who also studied the material I was given from an invitation only method. I read the same words that visionaries like Francis Bacon (1561-1626), Rene Decartes (1596-1650), Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790), Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826), or Isaac Newton (1642-1727) read, and was told to keep this box of materials a secret. It's full of lessons that focused on using our mind to help us in all areas of our life, including our health, and is not far off from The Silva Mind Control Method[xvi] that we covered thoroughly this year. Understanding the levels of consciousness was taught in the introduction to this program, and as we progressed into month three of the course, autosuggestion and the subconscious mind were covered, showing again just how far back these concepts go. Moving forward, I'm hoping that science will reveal some answers to why certain practices from years past, yield noticeable results. I'd like to keep these practices less of a “secret” for anyone to use for themselves or for the benefit of others. Just keep an open mind here, and follow along with the images in the show notes that I'll use to explain the importance of understanding our conscious, and sub-conscious mind as it relates to WHO we are, and then how we can use this understanding to put our goals on auto-pilot, creating results that will truly boggle our minds. Sorry the notes I wrote are a bit messy, as I wrote them years ago, and didn't think I'd be sharing them years later. You'll get the idea. DO YOU KNOW THIS ALREADY? As we move forward, this understanding might be something you already know, or have heard of before, but until you can explain it to someone else, it warrants a review. If you stay with me here, I can guarantee that the application of this understanding has the potential to shift your life in ways you'll never believe. I've been working with these ideas since those early days of working in the seminar industry (25 years ago) when I first watched 12 teenagers skyrocket their results with this understanding, and I still pick up something new each time I look at this. When I first saw these concepts yielding results after a relatively short period of time with those teens, it literally knocked the breath out of me. Something I've come to notice happens when I can see someone achieving quantum leaps with their results—it's hard to look away from something this magical. YOUTH MENTOR INTERNATIONAL (1999-2002): The Fundamentals of Life. For those who don't know where I first learned this concept, it started back in the late 1990s when I worked with Bob Proctor on a program for teens called Youth Mentor International. This program that I helped Proctor to create and deliver, covered the understanding of our subconscious mind, and how to put our goals on auto-pilot. The results of this program for these 12 teens was absolutely astounding. You can review the interview with Bob Proctor on EPISODE #66[xvii], where we reminisced about our time working together, shocked that it close to 25 years ago, revisiting the results we saw with those teens. You can see an image of where this program began, with cassette tapes covering these foundational topics, years before we could stream content around the world via podcasting or video. As I started to write this episode, I knew I had to go back to the Basics, and look at these tapes. Notice the title of the program: Youth Mentor International Fundamentals. This is what we taught ALL kids (ages 10 and up) around the world, each week. The Fundamentals of Life. Tape 1: Building an Emotional Appeal of a Future Promise (where we helped the kids to see the power of visualization) and building their future on the screen on their minds. Tape 2: We Think in Pictures: which takes our visualization skills to that next step, honing in on a detailed picture of our goals and dreams. Tape 3: The Conscious Mind and the Senses: showing the kids that there was a world beyond their 5 senses, or the importance of being aware of the “unseen world.” Tape 4: The Subconscious Mind and the Body: that took students into the lesson I'll share with you here today, or diving into the 90% of that part of us that remains under water, in the iceberg photo. Tape 5: The Faculties of the Mind (that we will cover on our next episode). Tape 6: Review and Application of the Fundamentals. After watching the success of those teens all those years ago, I put my hat here, and decided to keep looking for what else could possibly take our understanding of who we are to greater heights. This program had such potential, but fell apart after Sept. 11th happened. I tried to carry the torch forward, and learned from educators along the way, like you see with can see when I re-connected with Jeff Kleck, from EPISODE #246[xviii] who changed the direction I would take with this material in the schools, leading me to focus less on the spiritual side, leaning more on science, or how the brain impacts our learning. I know connecting the science to these concepts is integral, so my focus has moved to watching and learning from the leading experts in science, to bring credibility to the ideas I saw working with those young students all those years ago. UNDERSTANDING AND USING THE SUB-CONSCIOUS MIND The key is to understand how our MIND works, and that it's separate from our BRAIN. When we figure this out, it's like all of the pieces of the puzzle start to fit. Can you imagine putting a puzzle together without the lid, or the picture of the completed puzzle? That's almost like what we are doing when we are living life without a picture of our mind, and how we can use it. How do we better understand the part of us that exists under water in the iceberg image? I don't know about you, but I'd rather be in control of this ship called life, than to let it drift aimlessly at sea. REVIEW OF THINK AND GROW RICH: CHAPTER 13 THE SUBCONSCIOUS MIND If you listened to our Think and Grow Rich Book Study, (EPISODE #195) you will remember when Napoleon Hill reminded us that “The subconscious mind works day and night” (CH 12, Page 230, TAGR) and that you “cannot entirely control your subconscious mind, but you can voluntarily hand over to it, any plan, desire or purpose you wish to be transformed into concrete form.” (CH 12, Page 230, TAGR) He suggested that we go back to Chapter 4 on Autosuggestion and read this chapter again to become familiar with how to make use of this part of our mind that remains hidden to our eyes, but holds the power to move us to great heights. RAISING OUR LEVELS OF AWARENESS: UNDERSTANDING THE CONSCIOUS AND SUB-CONSCIOUS MIND IMAGE 1: This is a concept I wrote about with permission from Bob Proctor, in my first book, The Secret for Teens Revealed[xix]. The concept you see in this image of the mind and body originated with the late Dr. Thurman Fleet of San Antonio Texas, circa 1934. Dr. Fleet was the founder of Concept Theory. Bob Proctor was taught this concept from a child psychiatrist from Florida, Dr. John Mike, who transformed millions of others around the world with this understanding. It was this concept that also transformed the results of those teenagers all those years ago who learned how important it was to understand that we think in pictures, starting with this image. If you look at the image, imagine the conscious mind as the top part of your head, and the sub-conscious is the bottom part. Attached to the conscious part of our mind, is our 5 senses, or what we see, hear, smell, taste and touch. This idea teaches us to look BEYOND our 5 senses, (what we see, hear, smell, taste and touch) and begin to develop our higher faculties of our mind that go beyond our senses with (reason, intuition, perception, will, memory and imagination). While working with students with this material, I became very interested in helping them to expand their thinking and even created a video program that teaches these concepts to students, that you can find on the Udemy platform today, called The Secret for Teens Revealed: A 10-Step Blueprint.[xx] Another way to think about all of this, is that David Eagleman reminded us that our “conscious mind-the part you think of as you—is really the smallest part of what's happening in your brain” so to develop the largest part of our brain, would be to learn what's happening in the depths of our subconscious. The conscious mind is important, as it will be this part of our mind that holds our willpower, and our ability to think. IMAGE 2: Shows us of the importance of autosuggestion that Napoleon Hill covered in Chapter 4 of Think and Grow Rich. My diagram here shows that we can change our results in life, by changing what we think about—see how I've written in the conscious mind “We can think.” What we think about will change our self-image, or the image I see of myself. You can do this by thinking or repeating something with emotion which explains why affirmations repeated over time can change your self-image, when they are repeated with emotion, but this process does take time. Since we can THINK with our conscious mind, we can use the power of our SUBCONSCIOUS MIND to work for us, rather than against us and build ourselves into a new and improved version of ourselves, which creates BELIEF. This part of our mind accepts WHATEVER we give it. We build pictures in our conscious mind, we impress them upon our subconscious mind, and the images we create are expressed in our body, that moves into action, and produces results. IMAGE 3: HELPS US TO BRING ORDER TO OUR MIND FOR GUARANTEED RESULTS IMAGE SOURCE: The Secret for Teens Revealed, Samadi, Page 71 THE CONSCIOUS/THINKING MIND: Once we can see how the 3 parts of our mind work together, we bring order to our mind with this image, for guaranteed results. With time, you can learn to use your CONSCIOUS MIND to THINK clearly and build the pictures of what you really want. And what you think about does show up on the outside. In this diagram, I'd written that if I am embarrassed, your body can respond to that thought physical, by blushing, and we've covered how reading the emotions in others is something we can easily learn to do. THE SUBCONSCIOUS/EMOTIONAL MIND: With practice, you'll see that whatever you turn over to your subconscious mind, with emotion added, over time can change your results with this idea of auto-suggestion. This is why Napoleon Hill says we've got to read our goals out loud daily, for this process to occur. BUT WAIT: What if there's something I want, and I'm doing everything you are saying, but I still don't have this thing that I want? We will cover this more later, but it goes back to understanding our PARADIGMS that control who we are. There is lots to learn here, so just keep studying, revealing more and more about yourself along the way. If you see yourself with great results…and these results aren't happening…there's more work to be done. Remember, THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH YOU, but the layers of the subconscious mind just need more work. THE BODY: When you hold something on the screen of your mind, consistently over a period of time, you'll eventually see the results that change your conditions, circumstances and environment, which is the third part of the image. We've talked about this process often on the podcast, especially with people we've interviewed who have transformed their life over the years, like Ryan O'Neill from EPISODE #203.[xxi] Over time, we can train our subconscious mind to work for us, putting our results on auto-pilot, and these result change who we are over time. HOW DO YOU ACTIVATE YOUR SUB-CONSCIOUS MIND AND INCREASE YOUR LEVEL OF AWARENESS? The first step in this process is to go back over the 3 parts of the mind and see if you can explain this picture of the mind, and how it operates to someone else. Once you can see how the conscious-mind, subconscious mind and the body, work together to achieve outstanding results, and you can share this understanding with someone else who can see what you see, then you're on the right track, and you should be able to use this concept in your own life. You've just got to do the work to strengthen your mind, and there's more we will cover more next week, but for now, begin with these 6 STEPS to INCREASE YOUR LEVEL OF AWARENESS, UNLEASHING THE POWER OF YOUR SUBCONSCIOUS MIND. LEARN TO THINK IN PICTURES: VISUALIZE: This was one of the first skills that we taught to the teens when they were beginning to set goals, and it's a skill I'm still working on improving. Jose Silva's program is the best I've ever seen for improving your ability to visualize. If you struggle with seeing an image on the screen of your mind, just start slowly, with pieces of fruit like an apple, or a lemon, and with time, you'll notice you'll begin to see more. START TO MEDITATE (and keep developing this practice): This one will always be at the top of the list as a daily meditation practice will help you to access parts of your mind that you might not be aware of. Jose Silva's program took this practice to the next level for me, and is what I work on daily now. I also love Dan Siegels Wheel of Awareness meditation. There's no right or wrong place to begin here. Just start with something you feel connected to, and stay open minded to trying something new to expand your awareness in still, quiet, thought. DREAM: Not everyone will say their dreams can open up their mind to new thoughts and ideas, but they do for me. If you want to improve this area, make sure you are getting enough REM sleep each night, and see if you can remember what you dreamt about. Write down your dreams, and see if there's anything you can learn from them. It might not happen overnight, but if you can be consistent here, you'll gain incredible insight from this time that your conscious mind goes to sleep, and your unconscious mind soars. SET GOALS: There was this activity I would do with the teens I worked with called the 101 goal list. I remember learning this from the Chicken Soup for Soul author, Mark Victor Hansen, and I think he learned it from a teenager. The idea is that you sit down, and write out 101 things that you want to BE/DO/HAVE. It doesn't have to be material things, but can also be experiences you'd like to have, or places you'd like to visit. I remember doing this activity for the first time at an airport. After the first 25 things, I couldn't think of any more. The idea is that if you can keep going, you'll begin to tap into your subconscious mind, and begin writing things you might not be consciously aware of. I still have that original list that has somewhere around #50 that I'd like to swim with sharks. I have no idea where this came from, as it's not something I've consciously thought about. Try this activity and see what you discover about yourself. READ YOUR GOALS OUT LOUD: This one really works and might be why saying affirmations out loud works over time. There is a power that comes from reading what you want out loud. Try it. It will feel weird in the beginning, until you switch and begin to own what you are saying. Over time, you will start to believe what you read everyday, and when the belief is there, so will be your goal. BE OPEN TO LEARNING FROM OTHERS: This one goes without saying. Of course if you are listening to this podcast, you will be open to learning from others. But would you purchase a ticket to hear someone speak, or jump on a plane and fly somewhere to meet someone you know you could learn from? Proctor used to do this all the time. I loved his stories of when he would sit in the back of the room and listen to people speaking that he wanted to learn from. These were always life-changing connections and if you've ever experienced this, you'll agree with me that they are well worth the time and effort. If there's something you are working on, and you're stuck in some way, you'll be able to easily put the pieces of the jigsaw puzzle into place with the power that comes from two or more minds working together. REVIEW AND CONCLUSION: To review and conclude this EPISODE #291 on “Unleashing the Power of Our Subconscious Mind” we reviewed our vision for this podcast, where we began and where we we'd like to go over the next 10 seasons. We picked up from where we left off the end of May, with Neuroscientist David Eagleman's work, urging us to look closer at the subconscious mind, since it controls 90% of who we truly are. We reviewed the history of the subconscious mind and why this concept is a foundational step for us in the process of learning who we are. We looked at 6 STEPS for expanding our level of consciousness by diving deeper into developing our SUBCONSCIOUS MIND. This is just the beginning. Next week we will look at the Faculties of the Mind vs the 5 Senses to Expand our level of awareness more, but until then, think about this quote from James Allen, who wrote the book, As a Man Thinketh. He said “Mind is the master power that molds and makes: And Man is Mind, And Evermore He Takes the Tool of Thought, And Shapes What He Wills, Brings Forth a Thousand Joys, A Thousand Ills, He Thinks is Secret and it Comes to Pass, Environment is But His Looking Glass.” The goal is to understand how our mind works, so we can get our thoughts, feelings and actions lined up. That's integrity and not everyone has it. When you can line up how you think, feel and act, the magic happens. What we THINK on a daily basis really matters for where we are going. If the AHA moments haven't happened yet, (or nothing outstanding seems to jump out at you) come back next week, and I'll add some more, with the goal of helping you to expand YOUR awareness, by “seeing” this marvelous power that's held within the depths of our subconscious minds. See you next week.

Download my new and improved brain detox app here: https://neurocycle.app SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about the interconnected mind, as well as the divisions of the mind and what each part does. In learning about how to use our mind to manage our mind, it helps to understand the divisions of the mind and how these relate to the dynamic nature of thoughts. There are basically two ways of managing the mind: reactively, which generally ends up being messy, or proactively, which is how we clean up our mental mess. Developing a lifelong plan that helps you constantly manage thoughts and their impact is part of a proactive and strategic approach. You can even think of this as “preventative” medicine for your brain!
