And so it kind of helped me

make spirituality make sense.

And that was really the bridge for me was.

And that's why I love doing what I do in bridging neuroscience and spirituality, because for me in the beginning, that was the bridge that allowed me to walk over that and go into this fully woo woo state where if you would have told me you talked to an alien on the phone yesterday, I'd believe you because now I've had so many experiences.

And actually, with that being said, I also had

personal experiences kind of at the same time.

Like I remember I was meditating and literally like the crown of my head started burning, like burning.

And I had no idea like what the chakras were or any of that.

And my friend was like, oh, that was your crown chakra opening up.

I was like, what?

And I looked into it.

I was like, huh, maybe that was that.

And kind of little experiences like that.

And then being in meditation and just seeing visuals and

things coming to me and, you know, different signs to the point where it was like, okay, yeah, I fully believe in all of the woo-woo stuff now.

I think they can absolutely work.

So the neuroscience behind them is, I mean, it's sort of the power of neuroplasticity, right?

So anything that you repeat in your brain, those pathways become stronger.

Like neurons that fire together, wire together, that's Hebb's law.

We learned that in our very first neuroscience classes, Hebb's law.
