Summary
Let’s talk about manifestation, but not in a vision boards and affirmations kinda way. In this episode, Erin is diving into three of her favorite topics: manifestation, the subconscious mind, and the nervous system, and how they’re ALL deeply connected when it comes to your health.
Did you know that 90-95% of what you experience as “reality” is shaped by subconscious patterns? Your subconscious mind is constantly scanning for evidence of what you already believe, which influences how you think, feel, and respond on a daily basis. And all of this is the foundation behind the Manifest Your Health app, which launches on April 27th.
In this episode:
- The moment Erin’s nervous system shut down before a mastermind and how she rewired it
- How your perception of safety directly impacts digestion, immune function, and emotional regulation
- Why your body already knows how to heal and what might be blocking you from accessing it
- How visceral hypersensitivity turns normal sensations into pain (and why that matters beyond IBS)
- How to expand what your brain allows you to see so you can access more opportunity and possibility

| 0:00.0 | Manifestation is not just a mind game. |
| 0:04.0 | When we are trying to consciously manifest, meaning call in what we actually want and desire, |
| 0:10.2 | we have to take into account the physical body in the nervous system. |
| 0:14.6 | We can't just override the body's sensory system. |
| 0:18.2 | The nervous system is the body's complex communication network and it transmit |
| 0:22.4 | signals to and from the brain, the spinal cord to all parts of the body. Every single cell, |
| 0:27.2 | every single tissue, every single organ in your body. Your nervous system is basically your |
| 0:32.3 | personal surveillance system and it decides how safe you feel. And that perception of safety determines everything else. |

| 1:10.9 | follow and share with a friend because you never know whose life you might change. |
| 1:16.4 | Oh boy, get ready for this one because we're talking about manifestation, the subconscious mind, |
| 1:22.0 | and the nervous system, like all of my favorite things today. Specifically, we're talking about |
| 1:27.3 | why you can't manifest |
| 1:28.7 | your way out of a dysregulated nervous system. So let's start by defining manifestation, |
| 1:34.8 | because I know it's like kind of a little bit of an esoteric term, but to manifest is to call |
