Imagination is an incredibly powerful force, especially when it comes to the human body. With focused and repeated thoughts, we literally shape our physical experience.

Most of us are continually shaping our physical bodies through our unconscious beliefs - but what if we could use our minds to consciously change our bodies? This episode explores the very tangible power of imagination to impact our body!
