  • New Quantum Mechanics: Your Thoughts Can Control the Future & How You Can Build A New Life through Imagination & Meditation

    New Quantum Mechanics: Your Thoughts Can Control the Future & How You Can Build A New Life through Imagination & Meditation
    Apr 22 2025

    In this mind-blowing first part of our interview with physicist & consciousness researcher Thomas Campbell, author of My Big T.O.E. (Theory of Everything), we dive into the mysteries of virtual reality theory. Campbell reveals the quantum mechanic truths behind metaphysical phenomena like remote viewing, premonitions, telepathy, energetic healing and how we are all living in a simulation. He goes beyond his famous lectures and biography to break down his astonishing "data dump" experience that allowed him to physically see energy, and how mastering your intuition can literally alter the future. Plus, find out how to get the most out of intention-setting, how he reconciles science with spirituality, and what it truly means to have an open mind to the supernatural. STAY TUNED for Part 2!

A great listen no matter who you are

Mayim covers a variety of topics, typically mental health related, but always from a scientific perspective. She is open and honest about her own experiences which translates to the listener feeling like she is your new best friend. She's funny, intelligent and though provoking.

Fantastic episode. Thank you Mayim and Leslie!

This episode had me weeping. Thank you Mayim and Leslie for sharing his life story, struggle with addiction, depression, coming out as gay and living his life on his terms in a homophobic society. He lived it all with such grace and love for others that Leslie is truly an inspiration. I only wish he had more time on this planet. <3

Such an amazing concept

I love that these episodes are well articulated and intelligent. I have a “wow moment” in nearly every episode and it has opened up many new subjects that I can relate to and research. The episodes contain so much information from many voices and points of view but are easily communicated with humor and empathy. Love it
