Quote of the Week

“Where attention goes, energy flows. Where intention goes, energy grows.”

-James Redfield, American Author (or often attributed in variations to others too)🌼


This Week's "Subconscious Success" Tip

One of the big things about the subconscious mind and consciousness is that, to a large degree, we can't clearly define it or detail out how it works.

Perhaps some of the most interesting theories come from the quantum physics because of their close connections with consciousness and its impact on physical "reality".

So over the next few weeks, I invite you to explore a few concepts from quantum physics and contemplate how they might be relevant to your growth and consciousness evolution journey.

Let's start with this one:

The Quantum Zeno Effect

💡What it is: In quantum experiments, when you observe a particle frequently, you interrupt its natural tendency to shift. With enough observation, you can actually "freeze it" in place. It's like the quantum physics equivalent of "a watched pot never boils."

💫How this might apply to you: What you put your attention on matters more than you might think. The more you pay attention to something, the more "fixed" it becomes because we start to develop strong neural networks around it, until it becomes an unconscious habit. When it becomes a habit, you'll rarely consciously be thinking about it, but it'll still be running in the background when you need it.

This can be very helpful for things like walking or driving, but not so great when it comes to things like stress or worry, right?


How to Apply This Tip

Ask yourself - "what do I want to be more "fixed" as an unconscious program?"

(I'd personally like for that to be a state of presence, peace, and gratitude and not something like fear/worry/distress.)

Then ask - what keeps me from experiencing more of this in an ongoing way? What thoughts? What feelings? What habits?

Then, use your favorite subconscious change work method to help you transform those thoughts, feelings, habits.

As you might know, I'm partial to Core Transformation and Wholeness Work for this because both of these processes actually train the unconscious to experience super resourceful states in an ongoing way.

Schedule a free call with me if you've had some ongoing emotional or mental patterns that you haven't been able to resolve through willpower or logic yet!


Why it works (the short version)

The Quantum Zeno Effect shows us that observation creates stability. The more often something is observed, the less it changes. In our inner world, constant mental attention can “freeze” stress patterns—but it can also stabilize peace, gratitude, creativity, or whatever state we choose to nurture.

Btw - these states - greatly impact our health (and also the health of others - as I'll mention in a future newsletter).

Your attention is powerful. Treat it like the spotlight it is.


Ready To Try It?

Contemplate what internal state you'd like to have access to in a more ongoing way and what keeps you from already having it. Then - pick a subconscious change work method to help you transform this!

P.S. What's a "state" that you want to have more ongoing access to these days and why? What's currently holding you back from already having it?

Click here to connect and share with me! For me, it's presence...as a life goal...and also because my current pup has cancer, and I want to enjoy my time with her while she's still here vs. putting my attention to the future where she's gone. "Be here now" is my mantra these days. How about you?
