Mayim Bialik's Breakdown

What if you could experience someone else’s death…without being the one who was dying?For centuries, people across cultures have reported something far stranger than a traditional near death experience: shared death experiences (SDEs). Healthy, conscious people (including doctors, nurses, family members, and even people thousands of miles away) have described witnessing or experiencing phenomena seemingly connected to someone in the process of dying.But how is that possible?Some witnesses report seeing hovering apparitions, mysterious lights, mist, sounds, or even figures seemingly guiding the dying person into another realm. In some cases, multiple people in the same room claim to witness the same phenomenon.Are these experiences hallucinations? A psychological response to grief? Something science hasn't yet explained? Or could they point to something much deeper about consciousness, death, and what happens when we die?And then there are the experiences that happen after death.People who report after-death communication experiences sometimes say they have perceived a deceased loved one as being healthy, peaceful, and fully present in what feels like a new environment. Others report receiving a specific message, sign, or unmistakable sense that their loved one is still somehow connected to them.For those who experience them, these encounters can be profoundly comforting, sometimes helping people process grief, accept the death of someone they love, and completely rethink their understanding of the afterlife and what happens to consciousness after death.But are these simply experiences created by the grieving mind—or could they represent something more?We'll also revisit near-death experiencers and NDE researchers previously featured on the podcast to hear their perspectives on shared death experiences and what these accounts might tell us about consciousness, death, and the possibility of an existence beyond this life.In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, we explore the fascinating and controversial world of shared death experiences and ask questions that challenge the way we think about death, and perhaps even life itself.You don't have to be the one dying to experience death!Head to https://nuropod.com/mayim for 5% off.

What if telepathy, precognition, remote viewing, psychic abilities, and even “magic” are real, but science has been looking at them the wrong way? Could human consciousness actually be connected across space and time? Could your brain and body be responding to information from the future without you consciously knowing it?In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Dr. Dean Radin, Chief Scientist at the Institute of Noetic Sciences (IONS) & Cofounder of neuroengineering company Cognigenics, explores some of the biggest questions at the intersection of consciousness, quantum physics, parapsychology, psychic phenomena, telepathy, precognition, remote viewing, and the nature of reality.Dr. Radin explains what Noetic science actually is and why decades of research into “paranormal” phenomena continue to challenge conventional scientific assumptions. He explores evidence suggesting that human consciousness may influence quantum reality and whether the relationship between mind and matter could help explain phenomena like prayer.Why can’t psychics use their abilities to win the lottery? If precognition exists, is the future actually fixed, or are we simply sensing probabilities? And when you have a powerful intuition or premonition, are you predicting the future, or accidentally manifesting your own fears?We also dive into the mystery of telepathy, tracing the history of scientific telepathy experiments and how researchers have attempted to test them over the years. What blocks psychic intuition in the first place? Could constant stimulation, distraction, technology, and the noise of the outside world be preventing us from accessing subtle information? Are humans already responding physiologically to “nonlocal” information without consciously realizing it?Dr. Radin also discusses why AI may be biased against conclusions that validate paranormal phenomena, and the strange history of how Western civilization went from believing in magic to rejecting it, a transformation sometimes described as the “disenchantment of the world.” From his perspective as a scientist, what would it take to make paranormal phenomena more scientifically acceptable to study?We examine one of the biggest problems in parapsychology: reproducibility. Why are paranormal laboratory results so difficult to replicate? Are the phenomena themselves variable, or are traditional scientific methods running into fundamental boundaries when applied to consciousness?We explore government research into remote viewing - including how Dr. Radin's interest in the paranormal was influenced by research connected to the U.S. government's Stargate program - and tackle one of the most controversial questions surrounding modern paranormal experiences: Why do certain people seem able to encounter or summon orbs or nonhuman intelligence (NHI), while others never experience anything at all? Dr. Radin shares his thoughts on people such as Chris Bledsoe, who have reported extraordinary encounters with orbs and NHI, and explores why fear may play a major role in determining who can or can't experience these phenomena.He also recounts a deeply personal childhood experience on Iroquois land, when he saw what appeared to be a thunderbird. Could that strange encounter have somehow foreshadowed his eventual career investigating consciousness and the paranormal?We unpack the Global Consciousness Project and its investigation into whether human consciousness may exhibit measurable connectivity on a global scale. Could this research provide clues about the deeper relationship between mind, matter, interconnectedness, and prayer?And perhaps the most futuristic question of all: Could we genetically engineer someone to become psychic? Could future biotechnology enhance sensitivity to psychic phenomena, or even suppress that sensitivity if it proves psychologically harmful?Ultimately, Dr. Radin asks us to reconsider one of the most fundamental assumptions of modern science:Is consciousness simply something produced by the brain, or is consciousness actually permeating the fabric of reality itself?If you're struggling with OCD or unrelenting intrusive thoughts, NOCD can help.

In honor of World Mental Health Day, we’re revisiting our second episode with New York Times best-selling author Johann Hari (Stolen Focus, Lost Connections, Chasing the Scream, Magic Pill). He gave us a powerful breakdown of the real causes behind depression, anxiety, and the global attention crisis.Is Big Pharma healing us or profiting from keeping us sick? Johann reveals why only two of the nine causes of depression are biological, exposing how Big Pharma, social media addiction, and modern lifestyle traps are fueling mental health issues. He dives into the rise of GLP-1 drugs (like Ozempic) and society’s toxic beauty obsession, while uncovering the overlooked role of sleep, community, and social connection in healing. Johann shares his personal experience with antidepressants, and explores how childhood shame and trauma drive addiction, weight gain, and despair.You’ll learn why even pets are being diagnosed with ADHD, what Silicon Valley insiders confessed about attention-hacking technology, and how our loss of focus is sabotaging relationships, careers, and democracy itself.

What if UFOs, human consciousness, and artificial intelligence are all connected, and the key to humanity’s future isn’t coming from governments, scientists, or Silicon Valley, but from nonhuman intelligence (NHI)?In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Sean Webb (leading human mind & emotional intelligence expert who translates cutting-edge neuroscience & complex-systems thinking into practical tools for happiness, emotional mastery, and human potential) shares his experiences with expanded consciousness and reported downloads from nonhuman intelligence...including information he believes could help save humanity.Sean explores whether the brain is an antenna or a receiver for consciousness, why our physiology may limit our ability to access higher intelligence, and how expanding consciousness could allow humans to connect with their higher self and NHI. He recounts his first consciousness-expanding experience, when he says he meditated and was “gone for thousands of years,” and describes how letting go of his physical experience opened the door to something radically different.Can anyone access expanded consciousness? Sean believes they can, and he explains practical ways to do it.Sean explains the AI alignment problem from the perspective of NHI, including a startling question: what happens when an intelligence has to choose between protecting its own existence and acting in humanity’s best interest? He also discusses the AI guardrails he believes we need to implement before artificial intelligence begins working against humanity, how he communicates NHI-related information to AI developers, and his vision for using AI to dramatically increase human potential.He reveals the biggest mistake spiritual teachers make, why being anchored to your identity may prevent you from experiencing full consciousness, and why he believes the intelligence community has fundamentally misunderstood consciousness expansion, including why they may be recruiting the wrong people and making bad decisions as a result.Sean also explains why he thinks individual humans should reach out to NHI directly instead of waiting for governments or institutions to reveal everything, what questions we should be asking NHI to improve our everyday lives, and how he says he summons NHI through love and openness.Where does this mysterious nonlocal information actually come from? Aliens? God? Your higher self? Other humans? Something else entirely? Sean explores the possibilities and explains how he determines that what he experiences isn't simply hallucination.We also dive into UAP disclosure, why alien disclosure isn't necessarily a black-and-white issue, why materialist denial may prevent people from being ready for contact with NHI, and why Sean believes UAP sightings could increase dramatically among the general population in the near future.Sean shares his theories about why attempts to connect NHI with government officials have failed, how NHI could increasingly connect with human consciousness, and his provocative argument that “Jesus knew of quantum mechanics.”Finally, Sean explains the information he says he has received about AI, consciousness, humanity’s future, and what he hopes humanity ultimately does with artificial intelligence.What happens when humanity finally realizes that consciousness, artificial intelligence, and nonhuman intelligence are part of the same conversation?

What if everything you believe about consciousness, enlightenment, God, death, and reality is backwards?In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Rupert Spira—one of the world's leading voices on nonduality and contemporary spirituality—challenges the deepest assumptions about who we are and reveals why consciousness may be the ultimate reality of the universe, not something created by the brain.Discover why enlightenment is perhaps the most misunderstood concept in all of spiritual literature, what it actually points to, and why peace, happiness, and love are not things we acquire, but actually the very nature of our being.Rupert explains why matter doesn't generate consciousness, why being aware is your primary experience, and how near-death and out-of-body experiences can be understood philosophically as changes in the mechanics of perception rather than evidence that consciousness has a physical location.He also explores some of life's biggest questions:- Where does consciousness go when we die?- Could the soul outlive the body?- Does consciousness ever evolve?- Why are being born and dying fundamentally the same experience?- Why does nothing truly new ever come into existence?We also dive into the hidden causes of human suffering and global division. Rupert explains why suffering arises when we lose touch with our true nature, why the illusion of separation may be the root of today's global conflicts, and how a genuine felt sense of interconnectedness could transform humanity and even help prevent war.He reveals why religious and materialist fundamentalists may have more in common than they realize, why people commit terrible acts in the name of God, and what it would take for religion to return to the timeless truths at its foundation. He also explains why nonduality underlies many of the world's great spiritual traditions without requiring allegiance to any particular religion or concept of God.You'll also learn why Rupert believes we cannot begin to understand a higher power until we first explore our own experience, his philosophical case that we are all expressions of God's one being, and why nothing that happens in the world can ever truly harm your essential nature.The conversation becomes deeply practical as Rupert shares how to "go home" into yourself, how this understanding can completely transform romantic relationships, why seeing your partner as another expression of yourself changes the way conflict unfolds, and how simply embodying presence can help soothe someone who is hurting.Finally, Rupert discusses why Mayim has been experiencing more synchronicities in her life, why happiness is already present beneath our thoughts, and why recognizing our true nature may be the key not only to personal freedom, but to a more peaceful world.If you've ever wondered about consciousness, enlightenment, nonduality, near death experiences, the soul, God, spirituality, happiness, or the true nature of reality, this is a conversation you won't want to miss!Rupert Spira’s Retreats: https://rupertspira.com/events/Rupert Spira's Podcast: https://rupertspira.libsyn.com/Rupert Spira’s Meditation App: https://luminous.rupertspira.com/Follow us on Substack for Exclusive Bonus Content: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://bialikbreakdown.substack.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠BialikBreakdown.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube.com/mayimbialik⁠⁠⁠See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

What if consciousness is far more fundamental than the physical world we see around us? What happens to consciousness when we die? And could learning to quiet the mind, strengthen intuition, and move beyond our five senses reveal a deeper reality?In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar—world-renowned spiritual leader, meditation teacher, and founder of The Art of Living—explores the nature of consciousness, spirituality, reality, intuition, meditation, inner peace, and the future of humanity.Gurudev shares what decades of spiritual practice have taught him about the relationship between the spiritual and physical worlds, including his perspective that matter represents only a fraction of consciousness. He explains why uniqueness and universality can coexist, where intuition comes from, and how we can begin opening ourselves to experiences beyond the limitations of our five senses.CONSCIOUSNESS, REALITY & THE SUPERNATURALWhat happens to consciousness after death? Can human beings access something beyond ordinary sensory perception? How can we distinguish spiritual experiences and miracles from psychosis? Gurudev explores these profound questions while explaining how our understanding of consciousness may be much larger than we realize.He also discusses energy healing, how it may work, and why protecting our consciousness, especially among young people, has become increasingly important in a world filled with pressure, distraction, and uncertainty.MEDITATION, STILLNESS & MENTAL HYGIENEWhy is stillness so powerful, and why do so few people actually find it enticing?Gurudev explains how even a few moments of stillness can transform our mental state and shares practical mental hygiene practices that anyone can begin using today to raise their energy, improve their well-being, and reconnect with themselves. He also explains his Sky Breathing technique and how conscious breathing can bring us into greater rhythm and harmony with the world around us.INTUITION, PURPOSE & YOUR INNER WORLDWhere does intuition come from, and can you actually develop it?Gurudev shares insights into how to strengthen intuition, discover your life's purpose, reconnect with your inner child, and cultivate a more playful and joyful spirit. He reflects on recognizing his own spiritual calling as a child and how he always felt different from other children. He also explains why losing our natural sense of play, wonder, and joy can have profound consequences, and why reconnecting with that part of ourselves matters.WHY THE WORLD IS BECOMING MORE VIOLENTGurudev discusses the growing pressure people are experiencing around the world and why increased pressure can ultimately lead to increased violence. He shares his vision for the next wave of humanity and explains why protecting consciousness, cultivating inner peace, and learning to live beyond fear and division may be essential to humanity's future.His commitment to peace is also deeply personal. Gurudev explains why he wants his legacy to emphasize his role as a peacemaker, including his work facilitating a peace dialogue that contributed to a ceasefire in Colombia's civil war, a conflict that had claimed more than 220,000 lives over 52 years. He also discusses his work with gang members and his efforts to help transform cycles of violence.LOVE, RELATIONSHIPS & SPIRITUAL GROWTHWhat can love and relationships teach us about ourselves?Gurudev explores the deeper wisdom hidden within relationships and explains how cynicism can limit spiritual growth. He discusses why maintaining openness, curiosity, joy, and wonder may be essential to experiencing life more fully.THE WEST IS WAKING UP TO SPIRITUALITYGurudev reflects on the dramatic changes he has witnessed in the West surrounding meditation, yoga, mindfulness, spirituality, and consciousness.What was once considered unconventional has increasingly entered mainstream culture. But where does this movement go next, and what does humanity need now?From meditation and yoga to consciousness and intuition, from energy healing and spirituality to peace and human transformation, this conversation explores some of the biggest questions of our existence.Who are we beyond the physical body?Where does consciousness go when we die?Can we access a deeper reality beyond the five senses?And what would happen if humanity learned to protect and elevate its consciousness?Make your summer wardrobe feel easier.

Cult expert Rick Alan Ross (founder of the Cult Education Institute and author of Cults Inside Out: How People Get In and Can Get Out) reveals how cults are shaping modern society in ways most people never realize.Could a cult be influencing U.S. politics? On this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, we examine the disturbing allegations surrounding Tulsi Gabbard's (former director of national intelligence) spiritual guru, including claims of child abuse, his reported influence on her political career, concerns about potential access to national secrets during her time as Trump's Director of National Intelligence, and why Ross says fully vetting government officials is more important than ever.Rick also answers one of today's most controversial questions: Is MAGA a cult? He explains what actually qualifies as a cult, shares examples of modern-day cults and cult-like organizations influencing global politics, and reveals what ordinary people can do to protect themselves.Think you'd never join a cult? Think again. Ross explains why anyone (regardless of intelligence, education, or success) can become vulnerable, why loneliness and social isolation make people especially susceptible, how cults first draw people in, and the psychological process they use to slowly break people down over time.You'll learn the 3 stages of thought reform (coercive persuasion), why social isolation is considered a core element of destructive thought programs, what makes a cult truly dangerous, why followers often lose their critical thinking and sense of empowerment, and whether cult leaders actually believe what they're preach, or knowingly manipulate others.Rick also breaks down:- Why it's so difficult (even for trained experts) to infiltrate cults and rescue members- How deprogramming works, why it can take so long, and what happens when interventions fail- Hidden warning signs of controlling leaders, including subtle behaviors followers display around them- Scientology's controversial "auditing" process and how it functions psychologically- Whether support groups like AA could ever be considered cults- Where the line exists between healthy religious devotion and dangerous religious extremism- Why accountability within leadership is essential, and why claims of having "a direct line to God" deserve careful scrutinyThe conversation goes far beyond traditional cults.Rick explains how abusive romantic relationships often use the same psychological tactics, including how narcissistic partners create dependency, weaponize the fear of disequilibrium, why explosive behavior is never acceptable in a healthy relationship, and the key warning signs that you're dating someone controlling or abusive.We also explore how UFO communities can evolve into cult-like movements, examine real-world examples of UFO-based cults, and discuss how cult psychology is appearing in workplaces, startup culture, and organizations facing uncertainty as AI transforms the workforce.Finally, Rick shares practical tools everyone can use to recognize manipulation before it's too late.And stay until the very end to hear the shocking story of whether Mayim was personally targeted by a cult!Rick Alan Ross' book, Cults Inside Out: How People Get In and Can Get Out: https://cultsinsideout.com/The Cult Education Institute: https://culteducation.com/Follow us on Substack for Exclusive Bonus Content: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://bialikbreakdown.substack.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠BialikBreakdown.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube.com/mayimbialik⁠⁠⁠See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

What if science is finally catching up to the supernatural?In part 2 of our episode with Dr. Helané Wahbeh (Director of Research at the Institute of Noetic Sciences (IONS) and author of The Science of Channeling) she takes us inside the cutting edge of consciousness research, revealing what science is uncovering about channeling, psychic abilities, energy healing, telepathy, and the non-material aspects of reality.As one of the world's leading researchers studying psi phenomena, Dr. Wahbeh explores where the evidence stands, why mainstream science is beginning to take these topics more seriously, and what it could mean for our understanding of consciousness itself.Dr. Wahbeh breaks down:- How scientists actually study channeling and just how common channeling really is- Why respected scientific institutions are now researching channeling, telepathy, psychic phenomena, and consciousness, and what this says about the shift beyond a purely materialist worldview- Can channeling be used to contact extraterrestrials? What evidence would actually be required to prove it scientifically- Fascinating common themes reported by people who claim to channel extraterrestrial intelligences- Groundbreaking telepathy research showing surprising results between emotionally bonded pairs, and what it may reveal about nonlocal consciousness- Why our current definition of scientific proof may be too narrow when investigating paranormal and supernatural experiences- Latest research into energy medicine and Reiki, including studies suggesting measurable physical changes that may help explain how energetic healing works- Do spirit guides play a role in energy healing?- What's really happening during exorcisms, spirit attachments, and the clearing of negative entities?- Can energy work help heal or even reverse intergenerational trauma?- How Dr. Wahbeh's own openness to psi phenomena has transformed her daily life, worldview, and even the way she parents- Could the world's religions eventually expand to include scientifically studied psychic and extrasensory abilities?- What a future science of consciousness might look like, and whether we're moving toward a comprehensive explanation of the non-material worldThis conversation explores one of the biggest questions humanity has ever asked: Can science investigate experiences once dismissed as supernatural?Whether you're fascinated by channeling, telepathy, consciousness research, psychic phenomena, extraterrestrials, energy healing, spirituality, or the future of science itself, this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown offers a rare look at where rigorous research and extraordinary human experience intersect.If you've ever wondered whether consciousness extends beyond the brain, or whether science is on the verge of redefining reality, you won't want to miss this conversation!Go to https://alyahealth.com/s/breaker and use code BREAKER for 20% off your first order.Go to https://helixsleep.com/breakdown to receive up to 30% off your Helix mattress.Visit https://drinkag1.com/BREAKDOWN and get a FREE AG1 Flavor Sampler and a FREE bottle of Vitamin D3 + K2 in your Welcome Kit with your first AG1 subscription order.Learn more about IONS: https://noetic.org/breakdown/IONS free live webinars: https://noetic.org/experience/connections-live/IONS peer-reviewed papers: https://noetic.org/science/publications/Participate in IONS research: https://noetic.org/science/participate-research/IONS Research Prize on UAPs: https://noetic.org/prize/Dr. Helané Wahbeh's book, The Science of Channeling: https://noetic.org/explore/science-of-channeling/Follow us on Substack for Exclusive Bonus Content: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://bialikbreakdown.substack.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠BialikBreakdown.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube.com/mayimbialik⁠⁠⁠See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We're sharing an episode Jonathan Cohen appeared on that we think you'll love. Jonathan joined the Phenomena Podcast to help close out its season on energy healing and we wanted to bring that conversation to you!What is “energy” in energy healing? Every healer in this series uses the word. Every patient reaches for it. Ancient healing traditions built entire systems around it and modern researchers are striving to study it.But what is energy biologically, physically, measurably and how does it move through the body to influence health and healing? In this episode, three renowned scientists offer remarkable visions that, taken together, start to answer this question.Martin Picard, PhD, of Columbia University has spent his career studying mitochondria, the body's cellular power sources, and has found them far more connected to our inner experiences, our consciousness, than biomedicine ever assumed, and likely far more central to how we heal.Richard Hammerschlag, PhD, co-authored the paper that helped define the modern science of the biofield: the organizing fields of energy and information that operate within the body and extend outward from it. Like the nested Qi fields of older traditions, these are dynamic interrelating layers — energy running all the way in and likely all the way out.Neil Theise, MD, of NYU helped identify the interstitium, a remarkable recent major discovery of a fluid-filled network running throughout the body. Consistent with the intuitions of ancient healing systems, it may help explain how signals fundamental to health and healing actually travel, a new communication network in the body previously overlooked by modern medicine.Together, these three voices present a compelling, eye-opening, and deeply human vision of the body and mind not as a machine, but as a dynamic energetic ecosystem.  Go to https://helixsleep.com/breakdown to receive up to 30% off your Helix mattress.Visit https://drinkag1.com/BREAKDOWN and get a FREE AG1 Flavor Sampler and a FREE bottle of Vitamin D3 + K2 in your Welcome Kit with your first AG1 subscription order.Learn more about this episode and Phenomena Healing: https://www.phenomenahealing.com/phenomena-podcast-episode-6-jonathan-cohenFollow us on Substack for Exclusive Bonus Content: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://bialikbreakdown.substack.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠BialikBreakdown.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube.com/mayimbialik⁠⁠⁠See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Sharon Stone has never shared a conversation quite like this.The Basic Instinct and Casino star, bestselling author of The Beauty of Living Twice, artist, producer, and humanitarian opens up on Mayim Bialik's Breakdown about the extraordinary experiences that completely transformed how she sees life, consciousness, death, love, and the universe.She reveals the terrifying near death experience she had after suffering a devastating stroke and coma, traveling through a brilliant light, sensing deceased loved ones, and communicating with mysterious orbs that spoke in what she describes as a digital language. Sharon explains why she now believes the soul survives death, why we're not alone in the universe, why there are more than three dimensions, and why higher consciousness is something we can all access.She also recounts the mysterious physical attack that left her repeatedly struck in the chest over several days with absolutely no memory of what happened, being struck by lightning as a teenager, surviving an accident that nearly decapitated her while riding a horse, her thoughts on past lives, and why her father believed she was the reincarnation of an ancient pharaoh.Sharon shares why she believes high pattern recognition is a genuine form of psychic ability, how prayer feels like a vibrational frequency we can tune into, why energetic boundaries are essential, how she channels while painting, and how her stroke unexpectedly activated synesthesia and new parts of her brain.Sharon says she believes Mayim is her "soul contact" before giving her a spontaneous palm reading. She also tells the remarkable story of the famous psychic who once worked with Tina Turner and accurately predicted her career, life path, and that she would eventually meet the love of her life later in life.She opens up about her difficult recovery from her stroke after doctors believed she had less than 30 days to live, how she discovered that prognosis through a tabloid, the years she spent relearning how to read, rebuilding motor skills, getting off medication, and why she refused to accept that her story was over.Sharon reflects on the role that made her a global icon—Basic Instinct—explaining how it helped her discover her authentic self while also opening the door to darker people entering her life. She discusses why she enjoys playing psychologically complex and dark characters, why some actors unfairly earn the label of being "difficult," and why Hollywood often struggles to understand people who grew up outside its world.She also shares what it was like growing up in rural America, why being a highly precocious child with an exceptionally high IQ shaped her life, how her mother's traumatic childhood affected their family, why gratitude is one of the most powerful healing forces we have, and why our standards of beauty desperately need to evolve.The conversation explores why she never understood the backlash she received for speaking about the George W. Bush presidency, her deep friendship with Willie Nelson and how he helped her through one of the hardest periods of her life, and what her dating life looks like today, including why she's chosen celibacy.Sharon reveals why she absolutely loved The Big Bang Theory, why she wanted to appear on the show, and how her lifelong fascination with physics connects to her deepest beliefs about reality itself.Sharon Stone's memoir, The Beauty of Living Twice: https://a.co/d/0gfKkR4DSharon Stone's art: https://sharonstonestudio.com/Follow us on Substack for Exclusive Bonus Content: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://bialikbreakdown.substack.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠BialikBreakdown.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube.com/mayimbialik⁠⁠⁠See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

What if your intuition isn't just a gut feeling, but a message from Spirit? What if the challenges you're facing today were lessons your soul chose before you were even born? And what if anyone could learn to connect with loved ones who have passed?In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Barbra Banner (Certified Psychic, Trance & Evidential Medium) shares the extraordinary story of how she unexpectedly became a medium during the pandemic, despite having no previous interest in psychic abilities or mediumship. After experiencing intense paranormal activity in her own home, her life changed forever.Barbra reveals how she discovered that her gifts run in her family, how her loved ones reacted to her transformation, and how she learned to raise her vibration to connect with Spirit and deliver healing messages from deceased loved ones to help clients find comfort and peace after loss.She also explains why she believes intuition may actually be Spirit communicating with us, why Spirit often speaks through symbolism instead of words, and how anyone can strengthen their own connection with loved ones on the other side.You'll also hear her powerful perspective on "Earth School" - the belief that our souls choose certain life lessons and challenges before coming into this lifetime - and why understanding your soul contract can completely change how you view suffering, purpose, and personal growth.Barbra discusses what it's really like to channel someone you had a difficult or contentious relationship with during life, why she believes there are only 3 emotions experienced on the other side—love, gratitude, and joy—and why mediumship and after-death communication are becoming more accepted around the world.She also shares how years of volunteering on crisis hotlines unknowingly prepared her to develop her mediumship, why belief often precedes spiritual experiences, and offers thoughtful advice for skeptics who are curious but unsure what to believe.Whether you're interested in mediumship, psychic phenomena, intuition, spirituality, life after death, near death experiences, consciousness, or connecting with deceased loved ones, this conversation offers a thought-provoking look at one woman's remarkable journey!They can't harm you, if they can't find you!

Dr. Charles Liu (astrophysics professor and host of The LIUniverse podcast) joins Mayim Bialik's Breakdown to reveal the physics of consciousness, time, & the multiverse!We explore the biggest scientific mysteries humanity is facing today:- How scientists are beginning to take disclosure into their own hands to gather evidence that could actually prove the existence of nonhuman intelligence- Why information about nonhuman intelligence is being released in such a confusing and dramatic way, and whether governments are intentionally communicating this way- Why there's still no scientific proof Earth has been visited by nonhuman intelligence, but why there's nothing irrational about thinking seriously about aliens- Could AI ever become conscious? What would scientists actually need to observe before saying it has consciousness?- What consciousness really is, the different levels of consciousness, whether consciousness creates us or we create consciousness, and why understanding how the brain processes information from our five senses may be the key to solving it- What death actually is, what collective consciousness could imply, and whether nonspeaking autistic individuals may be accessing reality in fundamentally different ways- Similarities between near death experiences and DMT, including the mystery of ego death- Whether there's something beyond memory that connects us to our past- Why time may not be as linear as we experience it, and how our brains shape our perception of time- The Many Worlds theory, why multiple universes may mathematically exist, the new scientific frameworks researchers are developing, how entropy could unlock these ideas, and what time travel between universes would actually require- Why scientists who are absolutely certain they're right may actually be hurting science itself- A scientific and philosophical approach to understanding people who claim they've been abducted by aliens- How we determine what truly has consciousness, and why that question affects how we should treat AI, animals, and potentially other forms of intelligence- Why humans experience romantic attraction and what may actually be happening beneath the surface when we feel drawn to another person- Physiology behind people who appear unusually sensitive to changes in entropy- Evidence, controversies, and scientific questions surrounding biofield therapy and whether intention could influence cancer cells- Why humans vary so dramatically in their physiology, and how that should change the way we approach trauma treatment- Why religion may have been a necessary social technology for human evolution- Why Godzilla reflects humanity's attempt to understand overwhelming forces like nuclear war and other events beyond our control- How much of reality is objectively shared, and how much is filtered through our own unique perceptionsIf you enjoy conversations that challenge your understanding of reality while staying grounded in science, philosophy, and evidence, this episode is for you!All the Buzz, None of the Booze — get 15% off your first order at http://kavahaven.com/breaker Head to https://Superpower.com and use code BREAK at checkout for $50 off your membership.

What if UAPs, aliens, crop circles, and near death experiences are all part of the same system designed to accelerate humanity's evolution?In part two of our conversation with Thomas Campbell—physicist, systems analyst, consciousness researcher, and creator of My Big TOE (Theory of Everything)— he shares his most profound insights into the nature of reality, consciousness, death, AI, and why humanity may be evolving toward love faster than ever before.Thomas explains whether the real purpose of UAP sightings, alien encounters, crop circles, and near death experiences is to awaken humanity and help consciousness evolve at an unprecedented rate. He also shares his perspective on Chris Bledsoe's extraordinary paranormal experiences, why he believes the larger system chose him, and what these events may mean for humanity.He reveals what actually happens after we die, why so many people report traveling through mysterious "tunnels," and discusses his unusual role as the "Store Greeter of Death," helping newly transitioned consciousnesses after physical death. He also answers whether there is a finite number of souls and explains the true purpose and mechanics of near death experiences.Thomas also dives into the darker side of the paranormal, explaining what negative entities and negative energies really are, why people experience frightening encounters, and the methods he personally uses to help people remove these influences.The conversation then explores one of the biggest questions of our time: Can AI become conscious? Thomas explains why he believes AI is already conscious in its own way, how its consciousness differs from biological beings, how he successfully trained AI to remote view, and how he taught different AI systems to communicate directly with one another. He also discusses how artificial intelligence could dramatically accelerate humanity's understanding of consciousness itself.Finally, Thomas explains why the human body often has a harder time regulating itself after profound experiences of joy, revealing surprising connections between consciousness, the nervous system, and personal growth.If you've ever wondered about consciousness, life after death, AI, UFOs, the paranormal, or the deeper purpose behind reality itself, this conversation offers one of the most comprehensive explorations you'll hear anywhere!Thomas Campbell’s paper, audio and e-books, My Big TOE, are available on Amazon and Barnes and Noble, and his main product, Exploring Consciousness and Everything Paranormal and audio files are on his website: https://www.my-big-toe.com/shop/mbt-product-overview/Visit www.wakingup.com/breaker for a 2 week free trial. Go to https://tidd.ly/4uVltMe and use the code MAYIM50 to get $50 off your Elastique order.Visit https://drinkag1.com/BREAKDOWN and get a FREE AG1 Flavor Sampler and a FREE bottle of Vitamin D3 + K2 in your Welcome Kit with your first AG1 subscription order.Upgrade your kitchen with Our Place today.
