Show Notes for Episode 218

Mesmerism is back...Uh oh...

  • Perception is never reality! We're always viewing everything through a set of transforms...
  • American Psychologist George Armitage Miller spoke of what’s conscious / unconscious and the Magic Number 7 +/- 2...
  • All language is manipulation! Think about it...
  • Key Point: So what we perceive cannot be reality, but is at best a fragment of reality!
  • Here’s the problem: We act as though our perceptions are reality. All of us...
  • Humans are really good at hallucinating! Folding your arms doesn't mean you're necessarily closed to the conversation...
  • Mind reading is a very common thing, but that doesn't make it good...It can be declared and undeclared and perhaps unconscious...
  • Strong beliefs create reality tunnels, and then we behave as though they're actually true...
  • "The undeclared unconscious sub-strata" - Mike Mandel
  • Chris Thompson as the next scammer? Nope!
  •  Beliefs are formed by perceptions...and imagined perceptions!
  • The confirmation bias will even affect our Google searches...
  • Truth isn't determined by consensus!
  • Attribution of goodness, from liking someone...
  • What the thinker thinks, the prover proves!

Special Report from HypnoNorth, Meaford Ontario

  • So how far does this go if perception is never reality?
  • What if we're just perceiving that perception is never reality?
  • Perceptual positions: I...You...Them...

Empowering Questions:

What are my own perceptions about people I know…and the world I inhabit…and are my particular beliefs that create and stabilize my reality tunnel, actually useful…or are they more like something you’d see up in Meaford…?
