Episode notes
Universe's Indifference to Us
- The universe is indifferent and random, it doesn't care about individual goals or desires.
- This challenges the common narrative that the universe has personal intentions regarding our lives.
Science of Vibrational Energy
- Everything, living or not, vibrates at various frequencies, including the brain and heart.
- Vibrational energy influences interpersonal connections and can cause synchrony like synced menstrual cycles.
Brain Networks in Manifestation
- The default mode network imagines and creates stories about ourselves, important for setting intentions.
- It must be balanced with other brain networks to manifest intentions effectively, as it can be hijacked by fear and anxiety.
