16: Everything Starts with Consciousness with Dr. Dean Radin

For decades, scientists have been trying to explain and observe consciousness in all forms. Previously denied by psychologists, it has now become a question of “why” rather than “if” we have it.    Meet Dean Radin, MS, PhD, the Chief Scientist at the Institute of Noetic Sciences (IONS), who has researched, written books, and spoken internationally about how consciousness is a fundamental part of the human experience. His research shows that it plays a much larger role in our understanding of the world more than previously thought.  While philosophers might say that consciousness “just is”, scientists like Radin are looking for tangible answers to why things like affirmations, manifesting, and spontaneous healing might be very real for some people.  Radin doesn’t have all the answers yet, but he offers a fascinating perspective on how our manifestations, meditations, and other conscious practices might be having a real impact on our physical world.  Key Topics/Takeaways: - The world we don’t see outside of our senses [3:36] - Finding the language of consciousness [6:00] - ”The Hard Problem” of conscious studies  [10:01] - There are many things that do not have a good explanation for and that are real [15:09]  - The science behind manifesting [16:38] - Non-locality in the physical world [23:24] - Do “magical methods” work?
