Synchronicity
Synchronicity - The Art of Coincidence, Change, and Unlocking Your Mind (Paperback)
Description
""Synchronicity" is teeming with delightful and often compelling surprises about the nature of meaningful coincidences in contemporary life. The author's prose is playful, provocative, and profound. Though you may not agree with all of Professor Surprise's conclusions, this book should be required reading for anyone wanting to understand the magnificence and mystery of synchronicity."
--Gary E. Schwartz, PhD, professor of psychology and medicine, The University of Arizona, and author of The Sacred Promise
"An interesting mix of mythology, neuroscience, and common sense, this book takes a serious, but light-hearted look at the way synchronicity works and the degree to which it can be controlled. Going well beyond the ideas of Jung, synchronicity's discoverer, psychotherapist Surprise draws on anthropology, String Theory, and Walt Disney to make the case that our internal states do effect external events...."
--Anna Jedrziewski, New Age Retailer
The experience of meaningful coincidences is universal. They are reported by people of every culture, every belief system, and every time period. "Synchronicity" examines the evidence for the human influence on the meaningfulness of events, and the way the modern computational model of the mind predicts how we create meaning.
It demonstrates that these events, based on the activity of the mind, are caused by the person who perceives them.
In this fascinating work, you will:
Learn to use your amazing ability to create synchronistic events
Discover how your mind creates the reality you experience
Unlock your brain's vast resources of connectivity and creativity
Change from living as a separate being to living as a part of the unified whole
"Synchronicity" will show you how you already create events around you, and make you a conscious co-creator of your reality. Dr. Surprise describes the miracles of your brain's processes, merging the worlds of modern physics and ancient mysticism to reveal abilities you have always possessed, but which were not fully understood--until now.
Learn to make reality dance to the rhythms of your thoughts.
