Your life is giving you signs all day long. But most people completely misunderstand what they're seeing. You think about somebody and they call you make a decision, and suddenly the right people start showing up. You keep attracting the same kind of relationship, the same financial problem, the same emotional struggle over and over again. Most people call these things coincidences. Others call them synchronicities or signs from the universe. I think there's something even more profound. I think they're evidence that your consciousness and your reality are not separate things at all, but two expressions of the same underlying field. And if that's true, then the synchronicities in your life aren't trying to tell you where you're going. They're revealing who you're being. So today, I want to introduce to you one of the strangest discoveries in modern physics, one of the most profound ideas ever proposed about reality, and a practical framework that could completely change the way you create your life. So let's get into it.
Welcome to A Changed Mind, a journey into the topics that matter to you most. From the neuroscience and spirituality of mindset and personal growth, to groundbreaking strategies for health, wealth, and relationships, to open and honest conversations about pressing global issues such as the environment, censorship, corporate capture, and democracy. Each and every episode reminds us of the certainty of the goodness of the future and provides the teaching, teachings, tools, and timeless wisdom, inspiring you to create real, lasting change in your life and in the world. If you've been desiring a sanctuary for your spirit, a place to go to tune out the distraction, negativity, and doom and gloom so that you can tap into the deep power, the vibrancy, and the potential you have inside.
You're in the right place. Welcome to A Changed Mind. All right, guys. A lot of people have questions about synchronicities. Why do they happen? Why do you think about someone and they call? Why did the same patterns keep showing up in your life? Why does life suddenly flow after an internal decision is made? Is it coincidence? Is it confirmation bias? Is it evidence that reality is more connected than we think? I'm going to answer those questions for you today. But more importantly, I'm going to give you a framework for replicating synchronicities. Because I actually believe synchronicity is a skill. And when you understand how you create these coincidences in your life, you can replicate it. And so I'm going to be sharing with you a framework that combines psychology, spirituality, and modern physics, equaling synchronicity. Now, we've all experienced meaningful coincidence. This was a term that was actually coined by Carl Jung. He described coincidence as. And a causal connecting principle. Now, once you get over the word salad, it's really pretty straightforward. It's a fancy way of saying something happens external to you that matches a thought or idea or hunch that occurs inside of you without any other identifiable connection. And Jung had this famous example that he referred to as the golden scarab case. So while treating a woman who recounted a dream about receiving a golden scarab beetle, just as she's telling Jung the dream, he hears a tapping at his office window, and he opens it to catch what's called a rose chafer, which is the closest equivalent to a golden scarab beetle, which flew inside the office. And what's interesting, as Jung tells the story, is that this coincidence literally shattered this woman's block and opened her up to the shift that they had been trying to create for months. And that's in some ways what I think coincidences are here for. To shatter our notion of a separated reality. And so most people either dismiss coincidences or they over mystify them. But what I'm suggesting is that maybe they're neither. What if synchronicity is the visible expression of an invisible order that is always functioning, tying our consciousness or our inner world to the material or external reality? This could be yet another supporting evidence for the fact that you really do create your own reality. So David Bohm, considered by many to be the most influential physicist of the 20th century, he proposed that reality exists in two complementary orders or structures. He said the world that we experience is what he called the explicate order, the unfolded world of separate objects and separate people and separate events. But beneath that visible reality existed what he called the implicate order. It is an enfolded order where everything exists as one interconnected whole. So let me give you an analogy for this. I want you to think about the ocean. On the surface, we see separate waves, different sizes, different velocities. But beneath the surface, there's only one body of water expressing itself up above in countless forms or waves. So similarly, every individual thing or wave in the universe may contain and participate in the entire system or the ocean of reality. Everything we see individuates itself, but there is an underlying connecting system. So, according to Bohm, separation is useful for everyday life, but ultimately, it may be an illusion generated by our perception and that the deeper reality is a unity expressing itself as apparent diversity. And so this takes us to the idea of quantum entanglement. And I know you guys love quantum entanglement because they are our top performing videos and episodes. And honestly, I love talking about it because it is one of the strangest discoveries ever made in physics. So what we discovered was that scientists can cause two particles. So think about two separate particles. Atoms, photons, molecules, particles, something physical in the world. Scientists can cause two particles to interact in such a way that they become linked. So after they become linked, those particles can be separated by enormous distances, miles apart, potentially light years apart. Yet when one particle is influenced, the other particle responds in exactly that same moment in exactly that same way. Okay, now that's not after a signal travels from one to the other. It's not after enough time for information to move at the speed of light is communicated immediately. So Einstein famously called this spooky action at a distance. And experiments over decades have repeatedly demonstrated that these correlations are real and cannot be explained by simple local hidden variable theories. In other words, there's no math that explains how these two phenomenon could be correlated. And physicists still debate what entanglement ultimately means. But one conclusion is unavoidable, and that is this reality is not as locally separate as classical physics once assumed. That there exists a level of connection that transcends ordinary notions of space and distance. And what spooky action at a distance proposes is the possibility that there is this interconnected field. And that kind of makes sense, because if you think about it, if you imagine the universe as a blanket and you think about separating two things at extraordinary distances, the moment you move the blanket or the field that's underneath, both would react. So there seems to be something connecting the material world. And so here's the big question. If matter itself can remain deeply connected, what if consciousness can too? What if you and I are also deeply connected? In fact, what if all of us are deeply connected? So what if the universe is less like billions of isolated objects and more like one fluid expressing itself through billions of perspectives? This isn't proof, but this is a framework, and it's an incredibly powerful one. So I think that we, as participants in reality, are entangled in two ways. First. First, we're entangled with one another. So every human being participates in the same field of consciousness. And that is why I can think about someone and I run into them at a grocery store, or I have a fear and someone else shows up and reacts in a particular way that fulfills on my greatest fear. There's an interconnectivity amongst all of us. Second, we become entangled with the patterns of our own life, meaning our relationships Our finances, our health, our opportunities and our struggles, they become ongoing reflections of the frequency that we've stabilized to. So our reality is something else that we entangle with and it is a mirror or a reflection of our frequency. So what's frequency? Well, frequency isn't. Woo. Frequency can be described as the integrated output of your thoughts, your beliefs, your emotions, your nervous system, and ultimately your identity. Because when you look at how the human being operating system works, when you have a thought, that's an electromagnetic phenomenon in your brain. When you have an emotion, that's an electromagnetic phenomenon in your nervous system. And we are always thinking and we are always perceiving, so we are always vibing, putting off a vibration or engaging in some sort of frequency output. Now, Napoleon Hill talked about this. He basically said that the human being is a broadcast system, that we are radioactive and what we're broadcasting is a specific frequency which is correlated to thoughts and belief systems. And that all of humanity and all of reality receives this broadcast and organizes itself to create experiences that reflect back to you the belief or the thought or the emotion that started it in the first place. So I want to give you a visual structure for this, okay? Now if you're listening along on audio, you just listen. If you're following on YouTube, you're going to see it. It's what I call the Higher Power system. This is also a diagram that is in the middle of my book, A Changed Mind. If you have not grabbed it yet, you can jump on over to Amazon and pick it up if you love this episode. But the diagram is, and what it basically says is on a moment by moment basis, you are always thinking. You're thinking and you're feeling, and you are broadcasting one of two channels of frequency. Okay? One channel we would call a powerful state of being. The other channel is a primal state of being. So when you're thinking thoughts that feel good, that are moving you into a powerful state, you are broadcasting what we would call a positive frequency. When you are thinking thoughts and feeling emotions that don't feel good, that move you into some form of stress or anxiety or overwhelm some form of suffering, or what you might call a negative emotion, you're broadcasting this negative frequency. And so as you're broadcasting, all of consciousness, all of reality is receiving this broadcast. It's almost like you're placing your order with reality. And so reality, then, through human beings and through other miracles or acts of the material world, organizes to create life experiences for you. And those experiences are always directly correlated with your predominant Habit of thought and habit of emotion. So if you're thinking thoughts of abundance which feel good, you'll create experiences in your life that will reflect back to you that abundance mindset. If you're constantly afraid that you're going to be betrayed by someone and you don't trust people, which is a negative broadcast that's moving you into a primal state or an emotion that doesn't feel good, life will organize circumstances and situations of betrayal. So life is always organizing according to the balance of your thoughts, your beliefs and your emotions. And so that's what teachers mean when they say your bank account or your body or your relationships are a mirror of your consciousness. The experiences that you have today in your day to day life, literally today are a mirror reflecting back, back to you what it is that you believe. Because if you scrutinize the moments of your life, what you'll notice is when you meet these moments that are organized or created based off of what you habitually believe and think and feel, you have a reaction to these moments, don't you? A bill shows up in the mail that you didn't expect and you react and go, oh my gosh, I may not have enough or money is hard to make. Well, most people think that that unexpected bill is what causes them to think or feel a particular way. But the truth is you've been thinking and feeling this way for a long, long time. And that habit of thought and that habit of emotion is what has actually created this situation. Or coincidence or synchronicity of receiving a bill in the mail that you didn't expect to pay. This is a very simplified explanation of how we create our reality. This is a very simplified but clear explanation of Law of Attraction. And it is an explanation of how we create synchronicities and coincidences in our own. Now the beautiful thing is that we have an opportunity to respond to these experiences that we don't like. We have a response ability. And the ability is to not blame the external circumstance or life as life keeps lifing, but to take a look at your reaction. Because your reaction is the thought or belief that created this coincidence or synchronicity or circumstance in the first place. And what you'll discover as you begin to audit and observe your reaction to the experiences that you don't like in your life is you will discover your limiting beliefs. And then you do the work, the work to interrogate the belief, question the belief, transform the belief to come up with a better belief, to find evidence in your own life that supports the new empowered belief or new empowered decision. And so this is the work to do, but this is the mechanism by which we consciously or unconsciously manufacture coincidences or synchronicities in your life. And so what's important to understand is that coincidences and synchronicities are occurring all the time. We are entangled with reality, and reality has no choice, either through our interaction with other people or through a bill that shows up in the mail, or through the time that you decide to log on to social media and an ad that you see that leads you to a program or a solution that's going to help you better your life or improve your bank account. All of those things are entanglements based on what it is that we believe about reality. So again, if you believe, for example, that you are not worthy, you'll create circumstances and situations, coincidences and synchronicities that will reflect back to you your unworthiness. But the good news is you have an ability to respond, and that is to interrogate the reaction, which is the belief that created the circumstance or situation in the first place, and transform the belief. Now, of course, that's what this entire show is about. We've got over a hundred episodes on how to transform your beliefs. But what I want to invite you to do is to see how you've entangled with your current reality. I want you to see the power of coincidence and synchronicity and pick one recurring problem. So I want you to think right now about one problem in your life that is recurring. Could be relationship problems. You always meet somebody new and you get really excited in the beginning, but they turn out to be the same person that you just got out of a relationship with over and over and over again. Or maybe it's the same argument that you have with the relationship or the partner that you have. Maybe it's a problem with money or a problem with your health, or you've plateaued in your business and ask yourself what belief would perfectly explain why this pattern keeps repeating. Don't analyze the circumstance. Find the belief underneath it. Take a look at the problem and notice what you think about it. That's step number one. Identify and audit the belief, which is the reaction to the problem in the first place. And then my encouragement is to make the opposite decision. Not an affirmation, a decision. So rather than saying, I'm not good enough, which is the reaction, I am good enough. Money is hard to make. Money is easy to make. So come up with a new empowered decision. Life never works out for me. Life always Works out for me. And then what I want you to do is I want you to ask yourself a simple question, which is, what evidence do I have for the fact that this new decision is true? And wait to see what occurs for you, what this simple process is. It's called a decision matrix. Now, if you're a regular listener to the show, you love the decision matrix. I know, I was just speaking at Dave Asprey's biohacking conference. Literally, people were coming up to me going, man, thank you for the decision matrix. It transformed my life. It is also outlined in my book. But this is a simple three step process for using the coincidences and synchronicities that you don't prefer in your life, looking at your reaction to that experience, revealing the limiting belief, and then coming up with a new decision and evidence to support the new decision. This is the simplest, most powerful way I know of transforming a limiting belief. And then be present for the next week as the old limiting belief comes up. And remind yourself that what you really believe to be true is the new decision. And remind yourself of the evidence that you came up with that reinforces the fact that the new decision is actually true, that it is more true than the limiting belief. This is a process called neural pruning. This is a way when the neural networks that represent the old limiting beliefs show up that you don't continue to perpetuate them. But you stop, you remind yourself of the new decision. You start building this new memory, this new belief system, this new part of your brain, and you deactivate the old one. This is actually how you shift your beliefs, you shift your identity. You literally become a different person. And as you're willing to commit to this work, in this practice, watch what begins to reorganize. Watch the conversations, watch the opportunities, the ideas, the coincidences, the synchronicities. Because reality has no choice but to transform according to your consciousness. So synchronicities might be miracles. They might be your guides or angels orchestrating things. They might be moments where the implicate order briefly becomes visible, where the invisible architecture underneath reality peeks through. And maybe the reason your life keeps producing the same results is because you're perfectly entangled with the identity that you've been carrying for a long time. But the beautiful news is this. The moment you make a new decision about who you are, about how life works, about how it's going to be, you begin entangling with an entirely different future. And over time, the field has no choice but to reflect that back to you. So I hope you enjoyed listening to this episode as much as I love sharing it with you.
