Why Isn't Everyone Doing This? with Emily Fletcher

A Doctor's Transformation Story: What happens when a logical, science-minded optometrist discovers the power of embodied manifesting? In this inspiring student spotlight from the Ziva Magic Podcast Series, meet Danny, a father, husband, and eye doctor who literally wrote "I'm skeptical" on his intake form... and finished the course saying "I believe in magic." Danny's incredible journey, from writing "I'm skeptical" to declaring "I believe in magic", proves that manifesting isn't just about positive thinking or vision boards. It's about becoming the version of you who is actually ready to receive everything you've been asking for. And that's exactly what happens inside Ziva Magic, the powerful embodied manifesting course Danny just completed. 💡 In This Episode, You'll Discover: ✨ How a busy professional with zero spiritual background learned to feel his feelings ✨ Why Danny calls this work "taking your brain to the gym" ✨ The moment he realized prayer could be practical, not just religious ✨ How embodied practices helped him show up differently as a father and husband ✨ Why he believes everyone needs spiritual practices—even the most logical minds ✨ The surprising ways his body guided him toward transformation Danny's journey proves that you don't need to be "spiritual" to benefit from this work.

What if your brain has a built-in filtration system that's keeping you stuck in worry instead of manifesting your dreams? In this special bonus episode of Why Isn't Everyone Doing This?, I'm taking you deep into the science behind embodied manifesting and revealing why traditional manifestation techniques often fall short. Most people spend minutes every day "worshiping their worries"—obsessing over what could go wrong instead of focusing on what they'd love to create. But there's actual neuroscience behind why this happens, and more importantly, how to rewire it. I break down the reticular activating system (RAS), your brain's filter that determines what you notice in reality. When you're in chronic stress, this filter prioritizes threats over opportunities. But when you learn to regulate your nervous system first, then manifest from that grounded state, everything changes. 💡 In This Episode, You'll Discover: ✨ How your brain's filtration system keeps you stuck in worry patterns ✨ Why "we don't get what we want—we get who we are" and what that means for manifestation ✨ The electromagnetic power of your heart (5,000x stronger than your head) ✨ How to get your head, heart, and body into coherence for magnetic manifesting ✨ My favorite manifestation question: "What would I love?" and why it's so powerful Plus, I'm gifting you an exclusive embodied practice from Ziva Magic—a complete guided visualization where you'll experience firsthand what it feels like to manifest from your whole being, not just your mind. This isn't about positive thinking or vision boards. This is about understanding the frequency of your desires and becoming an energetic match for them through your body, not just your thoughts. 🎧 Exclusive for Podcast Listeners: Ready to bring your dreams out of your head and into your body? As a listener, you get early access to Magic Maker, Emily's free live workshop happening July 22nd, where she will guide you through the exact 3-step formula for embodied manifesting.

What if the key to healing chronic pain lies not in your conscious mind, but in learning to reprogram the 95% of consciousness that's actually running your life? In this hands-on Part 2 with Jim Curtis, master hypnotherapist, transformational coach, and author, we move beyond theory into the practical application of subconscious healing. During a live hypnosis demonstration Jim demonstrates exactly how NLP and hypnosis work to eliminate limiting beliefs and physical pain stored in your body.

Jim demonstrates how to access the subconscious mind while addressing specific physical issues and installing new positive patterns. This episode bridges the gap between spiritual healing and practical neuroscience, showing exactly how beliefs become biology and how changing your internal programming can eliminate decades of suffering. Jim's insights on shadow work, forgiveness, and why we unconsciously sabotage our own healing will transform how you approach personal transformation.
