I am an anxious doctor. Or at least I WAS an anxious doctor. After literally decades of suffering from intractable anxiety, and seeing over 50 different types of healers I found my way to heal my anxiety through very unconventional (for a medical doctor at least) means. In 2013 I was so anxious I considered suicide and a friend suggested I try LSD, and although that scared the crap out of me it showed me the path to healing. You don't have to do LSD to heal, I took it for you! I'm a medical doctor, neuroscientist and intuitive. (I know, common combination!) I found my way out and it is counterintuitive and very non conventional (but not scary!). I will show you the way out too, you just have to listen to me, dammit!

130: Why Anxious People Can't Manifest Their Dream Life (And How To Fix It)

Why does manifestation backfire when you need it most?

In this episode, I look at why affirmations and vision boards don’t land when your body is stuck in protection and alarm. That state makes it almost impossible to think positively, no matter how many times you repeat the words. The nervous system drives what you’re able to manifest, and when it’s wired for survival, positivity just slides off while negativity sticks. Real tools like hypno meditations, visualization, and the physiological sigh can shift the body out of alarm so the mind can believe what it’s saying. That’s when manifestation stops feeling fake and starts working.

You’ll Learn:

Why manifestation often fails
The tools I use to regulate my body first so that my mind and body can align and manifestation can take root
The surprising link between childhood disconnection and difficulty creating positive change
How the nervous system shapes what you notice, and why it can trap you in a negative echo chamber
What it feels like to try affirmations that your body doesn’t believe
Why regulating your body first makes manifestation more powerful and sustainable
How your reticular activating system filters your reality based on what you expect
The quiet damage of bypassing discomfort with positive thinking
How breath work, hypno meditations, and somatic tools can align your body and mind for change
What really happens when you manifest from connection instead of protection
