Uplift Your Life: Nourishment Of The Spirit

The dominant belief is that thoughts are more important than emotions. Research is showing us, however, that emotion underlies personality, spirituality, and a range of extraordinary perceptions, conditions, and experiences. These include déjà vu, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), phantom pain, and extreme empathy, where people feel the physical pain, emotions, or thoughts of other people. Many gifted children, people with synesthesia or autism, and extremely sensitive people describe having innate knowing and psychic experiences. My guest uses scientific studies to show how emotion can influence the development of unusual capacities and sensitivities, and how a hidden emotional intensity underpins both autism and anomalous perception. Strong emotions connect us with animals, one another, and all of nature, and may even last after death. Please join us Thursday to learn about the unseen role of emotion in mind and personality, where science meets wonder.
