Mind Magic

The Neuroscience of Manifestation and How It Changes Everything

By: James R. Doty MD

Narrated by: James R. Doty MD

A deep exploration of the neuroscience behind manifestation, with a six-part plan for realizing your dreams

“Powerful and profound . . . James Doty explains how intention is manifested in the brain and offers six steps each of us can use to create the life we want.”—Arianna Huffington, author of Thrive and The Sleep Revolution, CEO of Thrive Global

For decades the practice of manifestation has been widely dismissed as self-involved, materialistic pseudoscience. But as neuroscientist and recognized compassion leader Dr. James Doty reveals, manifestation introduces us to different possibilities, and it lays the groundwork for a kinder, better world.

Doty grounds us in the practices that change our brain structures: attention, meditation, visualization, and compassion. This mind magic allows us to move through the world in ways that help us see clearly—reclaiming our agency, realizing our dreams, and reaching out to help others along the path.

Where previous works about manifestation have focused narrowly on outward success and individual benefit, Mind Magic delivers an openhearted call to make manifestation part of a deeper contribution to healing the problems we face today.

Needs a professional reader

The author has an extremely distracting way of speaking where there’s a pause every 3 or 4 words and a slight “uptalk”. It was so distracting I couldn’t concentrate on the material. If you can read this with a different voice actor, do it. Otherwise skip it until you can.

Hard to get through

Good info but hard to get through via audiobook. Maybe a different narrater would have helped.

Sustainable and relatable practices

His soothing voice, relatable stories and sustainable practices will have me referencing this book and the many parts I bookmarked. I am committed to reading his other books; what an amazing author.

Libro muy interesante pero algo pesado de escuchar …

Es un poco pesado y monótono en el tono pero el contenido es muy bueno y las prácticas hacen sentido

Please have someone else narrate this book

I understand the author may have been excited about narrating his own work but his voice is very monotone and boring. The content of the book is actually really good, but I cannot with his voice and intonation. Please have a professional narrator. Will be returning the audio version and getting the Kindle version unfortunately.
