How to Play with the Conscious Universe

MARTHA BECK
About this episode

Did you know that everything around you is conscious and responding to you in various ways?

It may sound woo-woo, but Martha says there's a tremendous amount of legitimate scientific research to support this idea!

When we’re willing to acknowledge that we don't know everything about the universe, and we’re willing to play with the idea that the universe is conscious, very interesting things start happening…

In this episode of The Gathering Room: How to Play with the Conscious Universe, Martha talks about the synchronicities and “God winks” that occur when we realize we're all one field of consciousness.

To learn how to start picking up what the universe is actually saying to you—and feel its deep calm as Martha guides you through her Silence, Stillness, and Space meditation—be sure to listen to this fascinating episode.
