You don't see that.

When a person's alive, you can put a QEEG on and you can read the energy response in the brain.

You can put an EKG on the heart and you can see the energetic response there.

in the heart, that energetic response is mind.

So mind is this force that's around and through the body, and it's only there when you're alive.

And that's why I talk about it as being your aliveness.

So that's on the kind of physics level.

Another way of seeing it on the physics level, or just as an analogy, is maybe you did this at school where you were given a piece of white paper, and then there was a pile of iron filings on the paper.

and a magnet and we all know that magnets if you push magnets together they'll push each other apart we know magnets attract you can put a magnet they'll attract paper clips we all understand that but you can't see the field around the magnet that's attracting the paper clip but if you but we know it's there that's kind of like the mind the brain and the body are like this magnet but and this field is around it you can't see it but it is this force that is what we are using to experience life and moving through the brain and the body

If you take a magnet and you put it in the middle of a pile of iron filings, so just graded iron filings, they go from being a pile to being a whole arrangement around the magnets.

And that creates, that's what you call an electromagnetic field.

So in this field around us is an electromagnetic field.

It's a quantum field.

It's got lots of different ways that you can understand it, but it exists.

And it's basically the mind.

On a psychological level, it is how we think and feel and choose.

So notice I'm saying those three things together.

When you think, you feel.

When you think and feel, you choose.

So thinking, feeling, and choosing is mind in action.
