Sky Nelson-Isaacs is a physicist, musician and author of several books. His books “Leap to Wholeness: How the World is Programmed to Help Us Grow, Heal, and Adapt,” and “Living in Flow: The Science of Synchronicity and How Your Choices Shape Your World” capture the essence of his work combining science and mindfulness. He is the founder of the Synchronicity Institute, which works to use the law of physics applied with the science of consciousness in order to help individuals create change in their lives. Using these practices, he makes connections between the challenges faced in everyday life and how these provide a larger context to the events in our lives.     In this episode, Sky talks about his background in music and how his journey with mental health has led to the discovery of self compassion. He describes how he has developed the ability to see the importance of his inner response to outer circumstances.  Sky also shares the concept of relationship quantum mechanics, and how this is linked with the power of choice. By harnessing the power behind these connections, people are able to form and shape their reality. With this understanding, Sky has been able to describe the idea of synchronicity and how the events in the world come together to create wholeness.  Transcripts for this episode are available at: https://www.integrativetouch.org/conversations-on-healing    Show Notes: Read more about Sky Nelson-Isaacs Find out about Synchronicity Institute  “Leap to Wholeness: How the World is Programmed to Help Us Grow, Heal, and Adapt” “Living in Flow: The Science of Synchronicity and How Your Choices Shape Your World”   This podcast was created by Integrative Touch for Kids (ITK).

Is time an illusion? Quantum physics is pounding home the idea that all time is now. Coincidences signal the breakthroughs in our rigid notion of linear time. What is the difference between an instant coincidence and one requiring 10 year to be realized? Wonder along with us! Alessandra Melas collaborates with the University of Sassari (Sardinia, Italy), where she defended a Ph.D. dissertation concerning causal realism in Quantum Mechanics. Her research mostly focuses on History and Metaphysics of Science, with particular interest in causation, causal models, and chance. She is currently working on metaphysics of coincidences (see "On the Nature of Coincidental Events" with P. Salis, in Axiomathes, 2020). She has also been a teacher of History and Philosophy in the High School for almost a decade, and she works on didactic methodologies, as well as scientific communication and dissemination. Sky Nelson-Isaacs is a physicist, musician, and author of two books, “Leap to Wholeness: How the World is Programmed to Help Us Grow, Heal, and Adapt,” and “Living in Flow: The Science of Synchronicity and How Your Choices Shape Your World.” Over the past decade he has contributed research to the foundations of quantum mechanics. His most recent research has been published in the scientific journal Quantum Reports. He has a bachelors and masters degree in physics and seeks to connect synchronicity, physics, and living in a state of flow using research and original ideas. Our host Dr. Bernard Beitman is the first psychiatrist since Carl Jung to attempt to systematize the study of coincidences. He is Founding Director of The Coincidence Project. His book, and his Psychology Today blog, are both titled Connecting with Coincidence. He has developed the first valid and reliable scale to measure coincidence sensitivity, and has written and edited coincidence articles for Psychiatric Annals. He is a visiting professor at the University of Virginia and former chair of the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Missouri-Columbia. He attended Yale Medical School and completed a psychiatric residency at Stanford. Dr. Beitman has received two national awards for his psychotherapy training program and is internationally known for his research into the relationship between chest pain and panic disorder.

Get in the zone and find your zen - this week's episode is all about flow. It may sound vague, but there's a lot of fascinating science behind the concept. The team starts by explaining what's going on in your brain when you find the “sweet spot” in an activity and lose all sense of time. They then explore how elite performers achieve flow in their sport through years of intense practise. And finally, they point out that you don't actually have to be doing anything at all to get in the flow - there's always meditation! On the pod are Rowan Hooper, Anna Demming and Graham Lawton.

My guest for Life on Purpose Episode #93 is Sky Nelson-Isaacs. Sky is a physics educator, speaker, author, and musician who has dedicated his life to finding his own sense of purpose, bringing together the connection between synchronicity, physics, and real life using research and his original ideas. We had a great chat about: -His book Living in Flow: The Science of Synchronicity and How Your Choices Shape Your World; -The responsiveness of the Universe;  -How he believes synchronicities give us the opportunity to heal; -The question: how is my life reflecting my choices and collectively, how are our lives reflecting our choices? -Connecting the dots looking backwards AND forward and how desire plays a part in that; -Authentic power; -Tools he’s created like the LORRAX process that helps us cultivate flow; -His upcoming book Leap to Wholeness; -Grief and connection; -His new album “Stand For Me” featuring 13-original songs; and -Much more!   "When we live in ‘flow,' a state of activity in which we align with our purpose and values, balancing our personal good with the greater good, we make choices that invite synchronicity.” says Nelson-Isaacs. About Sky Nelson-Isaacs:   Sky Nelson-Isaacs is a physics educator, speaker, author, and musician. He has a masters degree in physics from San Francisco State University, with a thesis in String Theory, and a BS in physics from UC Berkeley. Nelson-Isaacs has dedicated his life to finding his own sense of purpose, beginning as a student of the Yogic master Sri Swami Satchidananda when he was less than five years old.    His writing on topics like flow comes from integrating this experience into his life. He brings together the connection between synchronicity, physics, and real life using research and original ideas.    As an active researcher in quantum foundations, his research is supported through grant funding from a private foundation. An educator with nine years of classroom experience, with experience in industry as a software engineer, Nelson-Isaacs is also a multi-instrumentalist and professional performer of award-winning original musical compositions.   To learn more about his work, visit: https://skynelson.com   About Living in Flow:   NEW BOOK LOOKS TO PHYSICS TO EXPLAIN SYNCHRONICTY AND SHOWS HOW OUR CHOICES MAY SHAPE OUR WORLD Synchronicity or meaningful coincidence has been something philosophers and scientists have wondered about for decades. Most of us have experienced it at least once. You are on a much anticipated road trip and your vehicle breaks down. As you’re waiting by the side of the road a mechanic who specializes in just that type of car drives up and lends a hand.  Is this just chance? Can two events be related in a meaningful way without one causing the other? If so, what does this tell us about the cosmos? Can we live in such a way and make choices that encourage synchronicity? Is that something we should strive for?  In LIVING IN FLOW: THE SCIENCE OF SYNCHRONICITY AND HOW YOUR CHOICES SHAPE YOUR WORLD (North Atlantic Books, March 2019, paperback) physicist Sky Nelson-Isaacs turns to quantum mechanics to seek answers. Adhering to what we know from science, while offering a provocative new hypothesis, Nelson-Isaacs proposes that the cosmos may be designed to bring us meaningful, synchronistic experiences in response to the choices we make. When we live in “flow,” a state of activity in which we align with our purpose and values, balancing our personal good with the greater good, we make choices that invite synchronicity. In addition to a layperson’s explanation of the possible physics behind synchronicity, Nelson-Isaacs shows how cultivating flow can empower us individually and help make our world a better place. ###

In positive psychology, a flow state, also known as being in the zone (or as the kids say, being in your bag) is the mental state in which a person performing an activity is fully immersed in a feeling of energized focus, full involvement, and enjoyment in the process of the activity. In essence, flow is characterized by the complete absorption in what one does. In this episode I share 4 aspects of flow that you can work on in order to access the flow state on demand. From this episode you will understand more about flow and be more creative, productive and improve your quality of life. Enjoy the episode.

Right Intentions, Right Speech, Right Action...right?What is the right next step? How can we explore My Grandmother's Hands by Resmaa Menakem together? Rev. Mike suggests using cans with string, Malayna thinks we should learn sign language. How exactly do we proceed? We need to keep checking in with our inner guidance, and take the next best step. How do we move forward while looking out for each other? Is this a great time for introverts? Quotes about right action from Alexander Pope, and a reference to The Da Vinci Code. Being frozen in inaction, indecision, fear of ridicule or mistakes. Mention of Sky Nelson-Isaacs and his book Living in Flow: The Science of Synchronicity and How Your Choices Shape Your World. Why did Einstein do a better job of thinking from the One Mind? A teaser of the July 5th talk. Looking back at history and identifying how far we need to look for the root of the healing. We are one race, all expressing the results of the violence of being alive throughout time. Being willing to be uncomfortable, make mistakes, take responsibility, say I'm sorry. Remembering indigenous people, LGBT rights, climate change. If it's not a mindful action,sometimes it's an unconscious reaction. How can we shift from outrage to change? We could apply the highest journalistic values and integrity to what we choose to post on social media -- fact check. Confederate statues and the power of the stories we build our identities upon. Is there a George Washington statue in England? (Yes! https://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g186338-d13896178-Reviews-George_Washington_Statue-London_England.html) Is it okay for our leaders to be good at leadership and not faultless people? Do statues glorify hubris? We don't want to erase history, but learn from the mistakes. Air Disasters happen because several failures line up. We need to look at the whole picture to learn forward. Teach and communicate. Statues of Harriet Tubman - there are lots. Can defacing statues be cathartic? Portland has a statue of Joan of Arc. Why? There's a story. We're adjusting our connection to symbols. The black bodies and white bodies imply a soul to soul connection is the way to healing. Statue to the father of gynecology and the ethics of working with slaves. Always more to the story. Lucy, Anarcha and Betsey deserve our thanks, shift the focus to gratitude. May not need to relitigate the past, but we also can't gloss over it. Simon Sinek, Sapiens - Yuval Noah Harari, Ken Wilber,shifting from work to data, information, consciousness and technology. We are more than a machine.

We talk with physicist Sky Nelson-Isaacs about his book Living in Flow: The Science of Synchronicity and How Your Choices Shape Your World and discuss how you can make the right choices on the apple tree of life. Sky explains the science of synchronicity and getting into the flow of life. Plus odd music, dueling inspirations, and Crazy Ed Biagiotti joins us for a segment!

Sky Isaacs-Nelson is a musician, author and physics educator who is building a foundation for a scientific understanding of synchronicity in our modern world.He recently wrote a book called Living in Flow: The Science of Synchronicity and How Your Choices Shape Your World. In this book he skillfully navigates the landscape between new age philosophy and hard science. He is a great science educator who is able to translate complex concepts into accessible and easy to understand language.And this conversation is a great example of how he is able to bring clarity to these concepts that are so full of paradox and mystery.In this conversation, Sky and I talk about the distinction between making the world the way we want by force of intention, vs. making a clear intention and then letting the universe take care of the work. We discuss how the experiences in our life are a reflection of our choices. We explore the question about whether the universe is inherently friendly or unfriendly, whether it is uncaring or if it is responsive to our intentions. And given the nature of the content, we talk about the tricky dance between scientifically explaining the trippy world of quantum physics and making it personally relevant without slipping into new-age "woo" language.Living in FlowWhen we align with circumstance, circumstance aligns with us. In his book Sky explains how our choices create meaning, translating current and original ideas from theoretical physics and quantum mechanics into accessible, actionable steps that we can all take to live lives in better alignment with who we are and who we want to be.Living in Flow helps us develop an informed relationship to meaning-making and purposefulness in our lives. From this we can align ourselves more effectively within our personal, professional, and community relationships to live more in flow.

The Science of Synchronicity and Living in Flow In this episode, Sky Nelson-Isaacs discusses living in flow and how your choices shape your world. Sky is a physicist, educator, speaker, musician, and author. Sky wrote the book Living in Flow: The Science of Synchronicity and How Your Choices Change Your World. First Sky talks about his work, bringing together synchronicity, physics, and real-life. To do this, Sky relies on research and original ideas. Next, Sky uses real life examples to show how your choices shape your world. In summary, listen and learn how you can start living in flow instead of just going with the flow.  Episode Highlights:  First, Emily Harman introduces Sky Nelson-Isaacs. Then Sky talks about the meaning behind his book Living in Flow: The Science of Synchronicity and How Your Choices Shape Your World.  Next Sky explains how physics relates to synchronicity. Why do more ‘meaningful’ outcomes take place in our lives?  Later on, Emily shares her retirement story. Next, Sky analyzes Emily’s retirement story.  What does ‘living in flow’ mean to Sky? Flow is about letting go of worry and getting in sync with life. Sky discusses the L-O-R-R-A-X process (Listen, Open, Reflect, Release, Act, Repeat). First listen. Then open up your mind. After that, reflect. Then Sky tells us how to release and act. Finally, the last step in the process is to repeat. Intuitions are assisted by life and adversities are assisting our intuitions.   Towards the end, Sky shares a mind exercise to recharge our mental data.  How do your choices shape your world? How can living in flow help organizations function better?  When we see that life is on our side, we can become more effective.  How does his work of synchronicity link to Sky’s social justice community work?  In summary, you can learn how to live in flow instead of going with the flow. 3 Key Points about the Living in Flow: First: Synchronicity is when certain events show up which are meaningful and if we pay attention and follow them effectively, they lead us to situations that we wouldn’t have expected. Second: Sky describes a scientifically based method of understanding and using life experience—the obstacles and synchronicities that show up in daily life—as a reliable guide for knowing how to move forward in areas where you are stuck. Third: The L-O-R-R-A-X process involves: listening to life, opening our minds, reflecting on the situations which are happening, releasing our attachment to how we thought things were supposed to be, then acting on our instincts.  Tweetable Quotes: 1. “I started trying to understand synchronicity through the lens of physics, which is my training, and in the past 12 years or so I have developed some academic theories on how that works.” – Sky Nelson-Isaacs 2. “Quantum mechanics is the study of what the world is doing when we are not watching.” – Sky Nelson-Isaacs 3. “The idea here from quantum mechanics is that when we interact with the world outside of us, we collapse it in some sense, into a definite state. But until that point, it was just a collection of possibilities.” – Sky Nelson-Isaacs Resources Mentioned: Business: https://skynelson.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/skynelsonisaacs/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sky-nelson-isaacs/ Twitter: @nelson_sky YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjmqVdGc2KZAkUM-frWOH5w https://emilyharman.com https://www.facebook.com/Onward-Podcast https://www.instagram.com/onwardpodcast https://twitter.com/OnwardPodcast https://www.soulpajamas.com/home https://www.podcastpress.io/

Nelson-Isaacs tells us that synchronicity is defined as a meaningful coincidence that is personal and that it is nature’s language for communicating directly with us. He writes: “As you develop your personal sense of the meaning of events in your life, you enter into a cosmic dance with the divine that is totally unique to you.” He’s the author of Living in Flow: The Science of Synchronicity and How Your Choices Shape Your World (North Atlantic Books 2019).Tags: Sky Nelson-Isaacs, synchronicity, cognitive illusion, quantum mechanics, fear, LORAX Process, Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, flow, control, grief, joy, disempowerment, meaningfulness, purposefulness, Science, Personal Transformation, Philosophy

“A synchronicity is a meaningful event that leads to a set of experiences we want to have.” - Sky Nelson Isaacs Synchronicity: noun. The simultaneous occurrence of events which appear significantly related but have no discernible causal connection. Sky Nelson Isaacs is a physics educator, speaker, and author of Living in Flow: The Science of Synchronicity and How Your Choices Shape Your World, which uses scientific research to explain acts of synchronicity. Sky has studied synchronicity and flow for the past 20 years and has shared his findings in academic articles and at events across the country. Sky explains that while many of our experiences in life are difficult, if we can assume all events are leading us to our desired outcome, then we are able to fully embrace synchronicity and all that it brings. In Living in Flow, Sky introduces the LORAX process for bringing more synchronicity and flow into your life.  So what does LORAX stand for and how can we use it?  L - Listen to your circumstance(s) O - Open your mind to the possibilities R - Reflect on how these new possibilities could work  R - Release attachment to the way you thought things would go, or your desired outcome A - Take action and make a choice  X - Repeat  On this episode, Chad and Sky discuss what synchronicity is, how you can bring more of it into your life, and how being authentic allows you to live a life in flow. –  Mission Daily and all of our podcasts are created with love by our team at Mission.orgWe own and operate a network of podcasts, and brand story studio designed to accelerate learning.

Synchronicity or meaningful coincidence has been something philosophers and scientists have wondered about for decades. Most of us have experienced it at least once. You are on a much anticipated road trip and your vehicle breaks down. As you're waiting by the side of the road a mechanic who specializes in just that type of car drives up and lends a hand. Is this just chance? Can two events be related in a meaningful way without one causing the other? If so, what does this tell us about the cosmos? Can we live in such a way and make choices that encourage synchronicity? Is that something we should strive for? In Living in Flow: The Science of Synchronicity and How Your Choices Shape Your World,  today's special guest, physicist Sky Nelson-Isaacs turns to quantum mechanics to seek answers. Adhering to what we know from science, while offering a provocative new hypothesis, Nelson-Isaacs proposes that the cosmos may be designed to bring us meaningful, synchronistic experiences in response to the choices we make. When we live in “flow,” a state of activity in which we align with our purpose and values, balancing our personal good with the greater good, we make choices that invite synchronicity. In addition to a layperson's explanation of the possible physics behind synchronicity, Nelson-Isaacs shows how cultivating flow can empower us individually and help make our world a better place. Sky Nelson-Isaacs is a physics educator, speaker, author, and musician. He has a masters degree in physics from San Francisco State University, with a thesis in String Theory, and a BS in physics from UC Berkeley. Nelson-Isaacs has dedicated his life to finding his own sense of purpose, beginning as a student of the Yogic master Sri Swami Satchidananda when he was less than five years old.

Jodi calls it intuition, adoption work refers to it as the inalienable bond of biology.  The undeniable but perplexing instinct that we don't fit in seems to play a big role in many Parental Identifier/NPE experiences.  Sky Nelson-Isaacs, physicist and musician, explains his theory on synchronicity and flow and how it relates to healing the pain of disconnection and grief - central characteristics of discovering misled and falsified parentage. Fresh off the release of his new book, Living in Flow: The Science of Synchronicity and How Your Choices Shape Your World, we interview Sky on how his work relates to the NPE experience and explains the seemingly random events that lead to our discoveries.  You'll learn about the importance of the apple tree, the use of metaphor and the LORRAX - not the Dr. Seuss kind. A special musical bonus at the end  - we play out the podcast with Sky's original song, Stand for Me, that feels like it was written specifically for the Parental Identity Discovery™ community.
