He would say, it's somebody who believes in the reality of the invisible.

So I said, well, if you're going to be a real scientist, and John wasn't trained in science, but we were, he used to call me his twin, you know, we were like
We're Out of Time
Dr. Daniel Siegel: Mental Health, Connection & AI | Guest Co-Host Patricia Freebery, LMFT
these twins, because we were talking about the same thing just from different angles.
We're Out of Time
Dr. Daniel Siegel: Mental Health, Connection & AI | Guest Co-Host Patricia Freebery, LMFT
You know, if you're going to be a true scientist, I said to John, you know, you have to realize that the bandwidth of visible light is very restricted and that most of what is real is not visible to the eye.

It doesn't mean that everything you conjure up is true.
We're Out of Time
Dr. Daniel Siegel: Mental Health, Connection & AI | Guest Co-Host Patricia Freebery, LMFT
You know, so everything I think of is right.
We're Out of Time
Dr. Daniel Siegel: Mental Health, Connection & AI | Guest Co-Host Patricia Freebery, LMFT
No, but it does mean that there is a reality to the invisible.
We're Out of Time
Dr. Daniel Siegel: Mental Health, Connection & AI | Guest Co-Host Patricia Freebery, LMFT

We're Out of Time
Dr. Daniel Siegel: Mental Health, Connection & AI | Guest Co-Host Patricia Freebery, LMFT
Anyway, that's to be a true scientist.

And so as Faraday found, these electromagnetic fields, which is not in the visible eye, are real.
We're Out of Time
Dr. Daniel Siegel: Mental Health, Connection & AI | Guest Co-Host Patricia Freebery, LMFT
And we have all these electronics.
We're Out of Time
Dr. Daniel Siegel: Mental Health, Connection & AI | Guest Co-Host Patricia Freebery, LMFT
So I think there's something called what some colleagues and I are calling a relational field.
We're Out of Time
Dr. Daniel Siegel: Mental Health, Connection & AI | Guest Co-Host Patricia Freebery, LMFT
And I think you can feel into it, you enter a room, you can kind of feel what's happening in the relational field.
We're Out of Time
Dr. Daniel Siegel: Mental Health, Connection & AI | Guest Co-Host Patricia Freebery, LMFT
So this fourth segment of the rim is feeling into that even imagining it is a good place to start.
