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.

loved the content but found the narration exhausting to listen to with many awkward pauses and inflections. looking forward to reading the paper copy.

good content, tough to listen

The content is good and interesting.

But the narration gets really choppy with pauses in the middle of sentences in awkward ways, like the narrator is getting tired of reading. And at this point, it’s definitely reading words versus telling a fluent story.

This became really evident in chapter 5, where I had to stop because it became so annoying.
Ex
I
Had to…
Stop because
It became so
Annoying.

Maybe by this book in a readable format versus Audible

Unnatural narration. Interesting content

Don't waste your time. Imagine listening or reading the same thing for 6 hours.

I listened to about over an hour of the book and so far the author moans about his divorce , being a bad father and husband and growing up poor. I am going to request the refund as I didn’t think I would get a book on diary of please sympathize with me , poor me. Dear audible : just because author wants to narrate the book , it doesn’t mean they should. During the first chapter it feels like he wants to cry all the time instead of keeping it professional. Hard pass for me . I could be wrong if you decide to actually finish the book and you have learnt something but honestly I can’t listen to one more minute of it

Not worth it
