Mind Governs Brain and Body
- The mind is a vast energetic field, distinct from the brain, driving our thoughts and biology.
- Most of who we are is our mind, which influences the brain and body, not the other way around.
Three Levels of Mind
- The mind operates on three levels: conscious (awake), subconscious (waiting room), and non-conscious (deep processing).
- The non-conscious mind manages 400 billion actions per second and guides the conscious mind.
