Summary
Neuroscientist Dr. Tara Swart reveals the neuroscience behind the law of attraction, intuition, and extra-sensory perceptions.
In order to create the life of our dreams, we must first understand what limits us from doing so. Tara discusses the origin of our identity and how the formation of it during childhood can either help or hinder our manifestation. Explaining that by harnessing the power of neuroplasticity, we can learn to reinvent ourselves.
She dives into practices for self-transformation, rewiring survival mechanisms, and releasing stress. She also shares her insights from studying Indigenous wisdom, discussing the creative potential of nature, the power of gratitude, and the mystery of consciousness beyond the human brain.

| 0:00.0 | I've always said that science fiction is just science that hasn't been proven yet. |
| 0:05.0 | Every experience that your brain has, literally every memory that you recall, |
| 0:10.0 | every emotion that you experience, every person that you meet, every scenario that you're in, |
| 0:15.0 | is constantly molding and shaping your brain. |
| 0:17.0 | In my research, what I found is that inability or frustration around manifestation is because I don't believe I deserve that thing. |
| 0:24.6 | If you're able to dig down to that underlying belief, that's when you can do really powerful work. |
| 0:29.6 | This is a must. This is not a spiritual belief. |
| 0:32.6 | If you can't do that, you will be so emotionally dysregulated, it can ruin your life. Are there any other ways in which our hundreds of thousands of years human biology now living in modern times is screwing us? |
| 0:44.3 | I've realized the importance of this one thing that has been staring us in the face for as long as we've been humans, but we have become so disconnected from it. |
| 0:52.3 | One of the questions that I ask people to consider is, |
| 0:56.0 | has your life panned out exactly as you always dreamed that it would? |

| 1:21.7 | they self podcast where every single week we get the honor and privilege to sit down with a brilliant |
| 1:25.9 | mind to learn more about the true |
| 1:27.7 | nature of self and the world around us at deeper levels every single week. Our guest today is a leading |
| 1:32.5 | neuroscientist, a best-selling author, a podcast host, a medical doctor, and in my eyes, she's really |
| 1:38.0 | bridging science and spirituality and the understanding of both in such a beautiful way. When we use |
| 1:42.8 | the words law of attraction, intuition, manifestation, what do we literally mean? And so we're going to be diving into that and the science that grounds it to earth and how we can really choose the direction we want to go in life and be effective stewards and what we're creating in life. So Dr. Taras Fart, thanks for being here. Thank you so much for having me. Yeah. My honor, |
| 2:02.2 | where I want to start today, because this is the No-Li Self podcast and it's very fitting, |
