What is your your thoughts around the identity of money and psychology of how we how it plays in our lives? Because a lot of people want to make more, they want to attract more, but they're just struggling with just the concept of it.
Yeah, well, I think we've been programmed quite a bit, uh, with our relationship with money. And we have a relationship with everything known in our environment. You have a relationship, a neurological network in your brain, to for your parents, for your cell phone, for your computer, where you live, where you've lived in the past, what you're going to do tomorrow. But for the most part, the brain is a reflection of everything that we know, right? So along with that is our relationship with money. And I, I feel like I have a really good relationship with money because I work on having a really good relationship with everything in my life.
You always have a good relationship? I think so. I think so. I've never really lived in lack. That just wasn't part of it. Even when I went to college and I had to take out student loans and stuff, I always figured out a way to always be a little bit ahead of the curve.
And so, so let's back up and just look at how people form beliefs. Because yes, most beliefs, um, are created from past experiences, right? So, uh, children, uh, when they're, uh, in their early ages, their brain waves are very slow. Like, their brain waves are in alpha, uh, when they're like seven to twelve, they're in theta. When they're like about two to six years old, and, and they're in delta, like when they're, when they're, you know, newborn to two years old. And so these brainwave states, uh, are states that were really suggestible to information. So when we hear information, we believe it and we accept it. We believe it, we surrender to it as if it's the truth without analyzing it, because there's no analytical facilities yet, right? The analytical mind starts around 12 or so, 7 to 12. And that analytical mind is actually what's creates a barrier between the conscious mind and the subconscious mind. So for 12, roughly, what we see, how we model our parents' behavior, what they say to us, all being programmed subconsciously, right? And so, so that's really, really important. Because if you heard, "Money is the root of all evil," "Money is bad," "Only certain people are allowed to make money," "You have to work hard to make money," "This is how you got to do it." And that becomes the foundations subconsciously. Like, let's like recording an audio file. You just keep recording that audio file. It becomes a subconscious program, right? So a lot of people have a relationship with money based on either what they've been told or what they've experienced in their outer environment, right?
So, so then we gain information from our environment. And the stronger the emotion we feel from experiences in our lives, the more altered we feel inside of us. The more the brain freezes a frame and takes a picture. And that snapshot is called the memory. So based on an emotion, based on emotion, the emotion alters our internal state. So you're going along as Lewis, feeling really good. And all of a sudden, you have this trauma, you have this crisis, you have this shock. And all of a sudden, you have this dramatic change in your internal state. And your senses get heightened. And then you freeze the frame. And you associate this internal state with whatever it is that's causing it, right? And that's how we create long-term memories.
Right. So, are our painful memories more, uh, powerful, or beautiful memories more powerful? Uh, they're both equal. Okay? They're both equal. But, but the problem is, I think most people experience from more than negative emotions, right? And those are negative emotions really are derived from the hormones of stress, right? So the alarm system, the emergency system, creates an arousal, you know, inwardly. And that arousal saying, there's something dangerous in your outer environment, right? And it could be a person, a circumstance, an accident, or whatever. And that, that change in emotional state causes you to remember the event. You got to pay attention, right? You got to stay really and narrow your focus on the cause.
So, so think about people who have relationships with money, right? From the past. All beliefs are based on past experiences. So you have an experience where you lose money. You have an experience where money is taken away from you. You have an experience where you don't have enough. You're living in a place where there's not enough money, or a family that's not enough money. Then the emotion that most people are living by in a moment-to-moment basis is lack. Like, I'm in lack of having something that I want, okay? Now, there's nothing wrong with that because the experience changes your emotional state. You freeze the frame, you take a picture. The problem is that's hardware. So we think neurologically within the circuits of that past experience. And we feel chemically within the boundaries of that emotion, which would say, for example, be lack, right?
So now the person says, before we go to the next thing, what happens to the body and the mind when it is in an environment of lack, mentally or physically? I'm in lack. What is, what is the body of the mind saying? Yes. So the body is saying, I'm waiting for some external event to occur. I win the lottery. I marry the right guy. Whatever it is that you're waiting for that event to occur. That experience produces an emotion. So the emotion then takes away the lack. And so when we play the game in three-dimensional reality, the creation game in three-dimensional reality, um, we experience separation from everyone or everything because our, our senses fool us into the illusion, the hallucination of separation. I'm here and you're there. I'm here and the door is over there. So I'm aware that I'm here at one point of consciousness. And the door is over there, another point of consciousness, okay? So in order for me to get from here to the door, I gotta move my body and do something through space. I gotta do something. And everything in this three-dimensional reality is going to take time and energy, right?
So, okay, so then here's, here's Lewis, right here. And then he says, okay, I want this experience in my future. And your brain automatically predicts and projects how far in the future you think it's going to take. Maybe it's a year, five years, 10 years, 30 years. Oh my gosh, right? Because that's what it's going to take to pay off that house, right? So now, one point of consciousness, I'm here. The other point of consciousness is where I'm placing my dreams. So I'm in separate from that experience. So then how do I get to that experience in three-dimensional reality? You got to get up and you got to do something. You got to go to work. You got to drive to work. It takes energy. You gotta fill your car with gas. You gotta eat food. You gotta work, you know, all this stuff. You gotta sleep. You gotta recover with your stress. And now people are in a sense waiting for the experience that's ten years down the road or 30 years down the road to happen to take away the lack of them not having it. And unfortunately, many times when the experience finally occurs, they can't enjoy it because they're too exhausted, right?
So then, so you play the game. You, you go to school, you study really hard, or you study on your own, you develop some skills, you make the right choices, you start saving money, you start learning from your mistakes. And then the game is, how many things can you accumulate? And that accumulation then you associate with being wealthy or being abundant or being successful, right? And some people get really good at it, right? You can get really good at that. But for the most part, though, when we create from three-dimensional reality, we're creating from lack and separation. In other words, you're driving down the road and see someone driving a car that all of a sudden you realize that you don't have. The moment you become aware that that person has that car and you don't have it, you're in lack of having it, right? So what the brain naturally does is it naturally creates you driving that car. And you have an image of yourself driving that car. And you start identifying, wow, that would be a greater experience for me to have. The problem is the distance between the thought of what you want and the experience of actually happening it happening for most people is the concept called time, right? Between cause and effect, right?
So some people develop the ability to manage themselves and manage their life, develop certain skills, and they can pay for it and they can get it very quickly. The problem is when the novelty of that experience wears off, you know, the car, and they're no longer identifying with that, and the feeling of emptiness and lack comes back. They need to find something else. You gotta find something else. And so there's this game that goes on where you never have enough, right? And that's the lack game, right?
So then if you think about people, uh, having the things they want in their life, when they create from lack and separation, it's the experience in three-dimensional reality that produces the emotion. And the emotion is saying, let's feel that experience, this thing that you've been in lack, lacking separation from. And that emotion then takes away the lack. But you've worked really hard to get it, okay? Nothing wrong with that. Is there another way to do it? Yes. Okay.
So the person who's living in lack is waiting for their wealth to feel abundant. They're waiting for their success to feel empowered. They're waiting for their healing to feel gratitude. They're waiting for their new relationship to feel love. They're waiting for the mystical experience to feel awe. That's the Newtonian model of reality of cause and effect, you know, waiting for that event to happen to take away this separation or lack. Nothing wrong with it. It's the way most people create. But what we've discovered is actually something else. The moment you feel gratitude, your healing begins. The moment you feel worthy and abundant, you're generating wealth. The moment you're empowered, you are moving towards your success. The moment you're in love with yourself and you're in love with life, you'll create an equal. The moment you are in awe of life, you're going to have a mystical experience. And so that's causing an effect, right?
So then if you can teach people then how to create instead of from lack or separation, but create from wholeness and create from what we call the quantum field instead of three-dimensional reality, what's the difference? Okay. So the way you, first of all, it takes knowledge, okay? The quantum field is an invisible field of energy that exists beyond our senses. You can't see it, you can't smell it, you can't taste it, you can't hear it, you can't feel it. It exists beyond our experience of three-dimensional reality.
Would this be in the, our mind's consciousness, or this be in a different space? Okay, let's, let's, let's look at that. So the answer to the question is, how much of your waking day do you put your attention on matter, on the material world? And how much of your awakening day are you aware of energy and frequency? For most people, they're unaware of the quantum field. And if you're unaware of it, it doesn't exist for you. Just like you have a nose, but if you're unaware of it, it doesn't exist for you. The moment you become aware of it, it exists. Well, the quantum field, you can ask, you can study all kinds of science, and they'll tell you there is this invisible field of frequency and energy that exists beyond the senses that tend to connect everything physical and material. In fact, everything physical and material is connected to this field, okay?
So how do you get there, right? How do you get that? How do you get there? How do you get there? So we discovered that when you take all of your attention off your body, and you are not paying attention to your emotions, your drives, your habits, if you take all of your attention off of every element in your environment, your cell phone, your tablet, your computer, uh, your, your car, your, whatever it is, your bed, take away, take your attention away from everything, every place that you live, where you sleep, or you work, and you're not thinking about time, you're not thinking about your schedule, where you need to be, or what happened yesterday, you can relax into the present moment. There tends to be a dramatic change in the way the brain functions when people do this properly. We call it getting beyond yourself. But in a sense, you're dissociating from your three-dimensional reality. Why? Because if you're thinking about anything in your three-dimensional reality, that's where your attention is, and that's where your energy is, okay?
So we kind of figured out this formula. When people really become nobody, no one, no thing, nowhere, in no time, we are pretty much all of a sudden outside the constraints of the Newtonian world of "gotta do something to get an outcome." And if you can teach people how to linger there without a name, without a face, without a profession, without a family, without a culture, without a past, without a disease, you teach them how to be in this place we call the unknown, right? And you teach them that from that place, that invisible field is where everything material comes from. And if they could create coherence in their brain, you need a strong signal in the brain. The more coherent the brain, the more stronger the signal.
What do you mean, a strong signal? Okay, let's see how I could say this. When most people, we look at, when we look at brains in real time, and we're looking at people's, how, how their mind is working, when you're under stress, okay? Stress is created by not being able to predict something that's going to happen in your life, the perception that something's going to get worse, or you can't control something, right? So when that occurs, we switch on that primitive nervous system called the fight-or-flight nervous system. And the brain goes into this very alarm state called high beta. That means, pay attention to the outer world, there's danger out there. So it's, but if it's not a predator, and it's traffic, or your co-worker, or your ex, this is where it gets to be a problem because it becomes very maladaptive, right?
So when we're in that state, and the brain is that, in that arousal state, we try to control and predict everything. So every person, every object, everything, every place, uh, every, even your body has a neurological network in your brain, right? So as the arousal happens, we start shifting our attention to all these elements. And like a lightning storm in the clouds, the brain starts firing very, very incoherently. And when the brain's incoherent, we're incoherent. That's not a strong signal. That's not, there's no, it's a static on the, right? That's disconnection. There is no signal, right? So when we're in that state, we're always really looking for the worst-case scenario of what's going to happen because if you prepare for the worst, anything less happens, a better chance of survival, right?
So, so in this kind of aroused state, as we shift our attention to each one of these elements that are known in our environment, the brain starts compartmentalizing and firing out of order. And, and that is what creates what's called autonomic dysregulation. That's causes the brain and body to get really out of balance, right? So in that state, we're, we're over-focused. You know, when you're stressed, you're over-focused on something. You can't stop thinking about it. Our research shows that when you do that, you actually make your brain worse because you're analyzing your problems within some disturbing emotion. And that emotion is driving you further out of balance. You're actually knocking your brain and body out of balance by thought alone. And you're driving it into these more aroused states, right?
For someone that's been living like that for decades, that's their base state. How do they even realize how to get out of that? They don't usually. It takes crisis, right? It takes trauma, extreme breakdown, breakdown. It's a loss of death, a breakup, a divorce, a near bankruptcy, whatever it is, a disease, a diagnosis, whatever. Something where you just can't go on business as usual. Now it's time to really start looking. They have to wake up. Yeah, yeah.
So, so let's get back to the concept of abundance here because you need a strong signal in this field, right? So then if you can teach people to do the exact opposite, go from putting all of their attention on everything physical and material in the world of separation, and instead of narrowing their focus on something material, ask them to broaden their focus and put it on nothing. I know that sounds kind of crazy, but when you put your attention on space and you divert your attention, the act of sensing without thinking actually starts to slow the brain waves down. Not only slow it down, but all of a sudden cause the brain to start re, re-integrating, starts to synchronize, right? And so you see different compartments of the brain that were firing out of order start to resonate. They start to communicate. They're, they're, they're all of a sudden synchronizing. And what sinks in the brain kind of links in the brain. So when a person has their whole entire brain firing in rhythm, that's a very strong signal that you can send out into the field.
So when that signal is strong, in that position, what can you create from that space? Okay. So, but that's only one element, okay? So then the clear intention tends to be a very important element that we have to have to get down. And the more coherent the brain, the more clear the signal for that intention. So with intention and attention, we could actually make thought more real than anything else. Now, what is that? You're saying, what would it be like to be wealthy? What would it be like to be abundant? What would it like to have all my needs met? What would it be like to have more than I need? What would I do if I had everything I ever wanted? The answer always is the same: you start giving stuff away because if an abundant person is truly abundant, why would they hold on? They would say, there's, I'm not in lack. There's more for everybody.
Okay, turns out though, that the signal sent out isn't enough. You gotta have to draw the experience back to you. So send a signal out to, you know, coherent financial freedom, whatever that is, all these different things, right, right, whatever that is for you, whatever that is. You're putting that out there with the signal, with the intention and the attention, right? And then how do you draw it? So, you know, so it's a physical world, right? In the physical world, you got to go get it. You got to do something. This is the plan of demonstration. You got to go get it. And when you, you're in lack until it occurs, right? But I'm hearing you say there's a way to not chase, but attract.
All right, so if you're creating from the field instead of from matter, right? There's a very strong possibility that you'll shorten the distance between the thought of what you want and the experience of having it. And when there's a vibrational match between your energy and that future that you want to experience, now, if you're creating from the field, you actually don't go anywhere to get it. You actually draw it to you. So here comes the synchronicities, the serendipities, the coincidences, the opportunities. And they come out of nowhere. And you, you say, I don't understand. I, I didn't do anything. Well, you changed your energy. And, and so then the other element is a coherent heart, right? And the heart has a magnetic signature. And the magnetic signature is what draws reality to us, right?
So you combine this clear intention with a coherent brain. Now, here's the key. This takes practice, yes. Because the person who's living in lack is usually unworthy, is usually insecure, is usually in their past, they're usually frustrated, they're usually impatient, they're usually resentful because nothing's changing out there because it's taking too long. That's everything takes a lot of time when you do matter to matter, right? So then if you teach them, okay, we know all about that. We know the story behind that. We know what your parents told you about money, all that other. Don't worry about it. Don't worry about it. But now let's do something that would be really cool. Let's, let's write down the feelings of how you would feel if that future happened. And you're going to have to feel that feeling before it occurs.
So now, okay, what does an abundant person feel? Pretty much free. A lot of freedom, peace, excited, joyful, in love with life, grateful to be alive, abundant. Okay. Now, let's practice feeling those. Turns out when you're feeling those other emotions like resentment, impatience, and frustration, you're stepping on the gas pedal and just turning on the sympathetic nervous system. And you're stepping on the brake at the same time, which is angry. You're frustrated. But the fight-or-flight nervous system says run, fight, or hide. And you're sitting in a Zoom meeting, and your neck is pulsating because the heart is beating against the closed system, right? You're not, you're not using it in an adaptive way. So the heart starts firing out of order. It starts firing incoherently. And incoherent waves cancel each other out. It's called destructive interference. And then we stop trusting our future. Energy leaves the heart, energy leaves the brain, energy leaves the heart. You can't get in touch with the feeling of your future because in survival, which those are hormones of stress, all those emotions in survival, it's not a time to create, right? It's time to run, fight, and hide.
Okay, so we gotta lay down the very thing we used our whole life to get what we want, the habit of doing it that way, for something greater to occur. The problem is, is that most people wake up in the morning and they think, uh, let me think of my problems. Right? The brain is a record of the past, right? So they think about their problems. They don't have enough money. And those, those problems are usually connected to certain people, at certain places, with certain objects, and certainly what didn't work out or who screwed me over. So the moment they wake up.
