Modern neuroscience and psychology are completely wrong. The thoughts and beliefs you have don't actually reside in your head. They reside in what is referred to as the unified field, or field of consciousness. Now, this field contains all information and ideas that have ever existed, that exist right now, and that will ever exist. And when you experience your own thoughts, what you're experiencing is a tuning into the information in the field. It's like you've opened up a portal to the information. Like a radio receiver, you've got the ability to tap into an infinite number of channels, and the channel you tune into determines the thoughts and ideas that you have, and those thoughts become your reality. If you're broke, it's because you've built a preset button to a channel that creates financial scarcity and insecurity. If you're sick, it's because you've been consistently tuning into a channel that creates illness and disease. But you can change the channel, and at any point in time, you can actually build new preset buttons so that you stop accessing channels that are creating challenges in your life. And you start aligning yourself with information in the field that creates joy, abundance, and wellness. Literally anything and everything is in the field. And as you learn how to access information that will benefit your life and you learn how to refuse information in the field that is creating problems in your life, literally anything, and I mean anything, is possible.

You're in the right place. Welcome to a Changed Mind. Hey, it's David Baer. Welcome to a Changed Mind. A sanctuary for your spirit. A place where each and every episode, I remind you of the certainty of the goodness of the future. I am your friend, your host, your guide, David Bayer. Einstein once said, reality is an illusion, albeit a persistent one. And what he was referring to was the fact that we do not live in a base reality, we live in a simulated reality. Einstein understood that everything was energy and that our five senses could detect this energy and translate it into a material or physical experience. What I mean by that is your eyes are interpreting photons and quarks and atoms and molecules, which are mostly space, mostly nothing, into a material or physical reality. The device you're listening to, for example, is basically 99.999% space. And yet you're able to hear this episode on it. The car or the room that you're sitting in, the trees you're staring at, even the ears with which you are listening are glistening, shimmering buckets of energy that your senses are translating into a physical experience. In fact, everything in existence is really, well, just energy. And there is a field of energy that pervades all of reality. You can kind of think about it like an invisible ocean of energy that we're all sitting in, that the material world is being projected onto. It's like a three dimensional virtual reality movie screen that we experience. And this field of energy is referred to by scientists as the unified or the quantum field. Now, different mystical teachers and cultures and traditions have been studying this field for a long, long time. The Hindus described it as the Akasha or Akashic field. The great spiritual mystic Neville Goddard called it the fourth dimension. In hermeticism and early esoteric cultures, they referred to it as the great mind, or the 1. Aristotle and Plato referred to it as the ether. And it's often simply referred to as the field of consciousness. Now, this field of energy contains all of the ideas, the thoughts, the information that has ever existed, exists now, and will ever exist. So, for example, before Edison, the idea of the light bulb already existed in this field. Before Jeff Bezos, the idea for Amazon.com already existed in this field. Before Bitcoin was Bitcoin, it already existed in the field. All potentials, all scenarios, all realities exist in the infinite potential of the field of consciousness. Now, why should you care about this? Well, first, because if you want to make more money, if you want to grow your business, if you want to heal your body, if you want to have a reality TV show, if you want to become the Prime Minister of Canada or your country, if you want to become a billionaire or solve the world's biggest problems, the good news is that the field already has the answer, that reality already exists in the field. All the ideas, all the resources, the path to materializing that reality exists for you right here, right now in the field. All you need to do is learn how to access that information. Just like Elon Musk accessed the Idea for Tesla. Just like Gandhi accessed the idea of a free and independent India. Just like Arnold Schwarzenegger. Access, access. The idea for becoming the world's greatest action hero. Whatever you desire can become your reality. Now, here's where it gets really interesting.
Most people, and I include myself in this, most people, until recently, think that the thoughts that they have and the beliefs that they have reside in their brain. But that's not true at all. When you have a thought, the thought doesn't exist in your brain. The thought exists in the field. And what's actually happening is that you're tuning into a channel of information that contains those thoughts. Remember, all ideas, all thoughts that have or will ever exist reside in the field. And so, just like when you select a channel on your radio and you tune into a specific song, you're tuning into a specific part of the field that contains information, and you're experiencing that information as a thought. But the thoughts don't live in your head. Just like the musician doesn't live inside of your radio. They exist in the field. And, and you attract or receive these thoughts based on the channel that you tune to. So what determines what channel you tune to? Well, you can think of your brain as a very complex radio receiver that has access to an infinite number of channels. And just like a radio receiver has wiring in it, you have wiring in your brain. And as it relates to this conversation, we're going to consider two very important components of your brain. Neurons and synapses. Neurons are electrically active cells in your brain. And when you're born, you're born with about 100 billion of these neurons. And now these special cells are connected by synapses. You can think of synapses as wiring. And when you're born, you're born with about 25 billion synapses. But by the age of seven, these synaptic connections grow from about 25 billion to over a quadrillion connections. That's a thousand trillion connections. So what happened? Well, life happened. And as you were experiencing your life, you were recording it. Literally every single moment of your life, you recorded from the first time you experienced a dog, to playing on the playground, to your first day of school, to family gatherings, as you experienced the world through your five senses, you ingested this massive amount of information. What you saw, what you heard, what you smelled, what you tasted and what you felt. And all of that information was sent through the nervous system and was recorded and processed in your brain. Now, what's critical to understand is that there was one other piece of Information that was stored as you were experiencing the first seven years of your life. And that was the meaning you gave the experience. Dogs are friendly or dogs are dangerous. Baseball is fun or I don't like baseball. Mom and dad are happy or mom and dad are angry. Money is easy to make or money is hard to make. And these seemingly insignificant moments and the meanings you gave them began to shape the lens through which you experience life. But more importantly, they started to determine what information you tended to access in the field. Remember, all thoughts and ideas exist in the field. And the thoughts and ideas you consistently entertain. In other words, the channel you frequently tune into determines the quality and reality of your life. And so, at a very early age, without being aware of it, you started to create what I would call preset buttons, default channels that you would go to to access information. And this habit of thinking over time is what has created the quality of your life. So let's do a quick recap here. All information exists in the field. The information that you consistently tune into will determine what you experience in your life. The information that you tend to tune into is determined by the beliefs that developed at a very young age which began to structure the neurophysiology of your br. It created a specific receiver with specific presets that create a habit of accessing a certain set of information in the field, which becomes your life. In other words, all possibilities exist in the field, but what you experience is based on the information that you are accessing in the field. So what that must mean is that if you can change the channel to a new set of information, to a better set of information, then you can change your reality. No matter how long you've been broken or sick or lonely or depressed, and no matter how big your vision is, no matter what you want to change in the world, no matter what you want to create the information, the solution already exists in the field. So the question becomes, how do we change the channel? Well, on this show, I talk about all kinds of tools to change your beliefs, to rewire your brain, and therefore to re engineer your reality. But in this episode, I want to teach you a very advanced technique. And the first part of this technique is to understand the nature of reality and to understand the nature of thought and how thoughts create your reality. And that's what we just did. So the second part of the technique is I want to invite you to imagine for a moment that you are in a control center, almost like you're on a spaceship with a bunch of screens in front of you 2030, 100 different screens. And on each screen is a possibility.
One screen has you living in abundance with a ton of money. Another screen has you living in financial insecurity. One screen has you living your purpose in the world with a really successful business or career that's helping a lot of people. Another screen has you slaving away, toiling away, doing work that you don't love. One screen has you healthy and strong and vibrant and living in well being. Another screen has you experiencing chronic health conditions and chronic pain and limited in your life. Now, why do I want you to see this? Because the point is, I want you to see that all scenarios, all possibilities, all ideas exist in the field. And as you sit in the control center, you're looking out into the field and seeing all of these possibilities. This is actually part of my daily meditation practice. I close my eyes and I acknowledge that I am in the control center, that I am looking at the field, and that all possibilities and all thoughts exist in the field. Not in my head, but in the field. I then notice throughout the day when I have a negative thought or I experience a negative emotion. If it's a thought, it might be something like I'm not as far along as I should be, or things never work out for me, or I'm upset somebody said something or did something. If it's an emotion, it might be noticing that I'm stressed or that I'm overwhelmed, or that I'm feeling down. And I realize in that moment that these thoughts and emotions are not inside of me. They're in the field. And I just unconsciously tuned into that channel. Now I don't want to receive this information anymore. So here's what I do. I take the thoughts or I take the emotions and I do one of two things. Number one, I create a bubble and I put the thought or emotion into it. Sometimes I'll create a picture. Let's say I'm afraid I'm going to get on stage and suck. And so I'm feeling stressed. So I put that little picture of me on stage sucking into an imaginary bubble. Or sometimes if it's just a thought, like I'm never going to figure it out. I just put that thought or that sentence in the bubble. And then I take that bubble, I imagine it in front of me, I take the energy and I put it outside of me. Because that's where it really is. It's not in me. Just like the song isn't inside of the radio receiver. And I imagine as I push that bubble back into the field. I push it back onto the screen and I place it back into the field, protecting my mind, protecting my emotions, protecting my energy in my field.
Now here's what's so powerful about this. Not only are you learning how to manipulate and move energy by taking the energy and packaging it up and removing it from you and putting it back into the field, but as you do this, this short little 10, 15, 20 second exercise, you're also simultaneously disconnecting from that channel. In other words, as you do this simple practice, you're no longer entertaining the channel. Ordinarily, if I was experiencing this, I'd think, oh, this is never going to work out for me. And then I'd go on like a 10 minute inner dialogue of why does it work out for other people and what's wrong with me and why did I do it wr and what if it never works out? And then I jump on Facebook and I look at other people having great success in their life and I judge myself, right? Staying tuned to the same channel, reinforcing the wiring in my brain, but by the simple technique of packaging up the information and putting it back into the field. When you're doing that, you can't also be tuning into the channel. You can't be doing both at the same time. It's impossible. So as you're packaging up the information and placing it back where it came from, you're also creating a neurological habit break. And the more you do this, the easier and easier it gets. You actually start to rewire your brain so that it's not tuning into the channels that you don't like, but it's tuning into the channels that you want. And you start to get better and better and better at this as you do more reps. This is a really powerful process because you're working at a root level of change, a causal level. You're working with the underlying energy that is materializing the experiences in your life. It's creating the thoughts you're having, it's materializing the emotions, not trying to control your manifested reality, or trying to control other people, or trying to hustle and grind your way to overcome your problems. You're working at the level of causation. And as you work at the level of causation, as you learn how to change the channel, your external reality must change too. So similarly, you can open up channels of information simply through the practice of visualization. You can imagine the outcomes you do want. And when you do that, you're accessing that possibility in the field that's what imagination is. It's opening up and tuning yourself to a channel of information about a desired future. And so as you do that, you start to build memories of a future that hasn't happened yet. Imagination is really, really powerful, and neuroscience tells us that your brain doesn't know the difference between imagination and reality. So as you imagine, you're opening up new channels, which changes the wiring of your brain and starts to build preset channels for a future that you want. More money, the dream home, the soul mate. This is why vision boards and visualization work is because you're training your brain to access a different set of information, a different set of thoughts and solutions in the field. So I hope you enjoyed this episode as much as I loved sharing it with you. I'm a massive believer in the possibility of your life. I know that everything that you want and all the solutions to it already exist in the field. And I hope that this gave you some optics and insights into how you can start to tune in to more of what you want and tune out that which you don't. So I love you very, very much and I'm excited to be on this journey with you. I will see you in the next episode. Hey, it's David. One more thing.
