Dr. Tara Swart

For the first time, a Neuroscientist and Senior Lecturer at MIT reveals the surprising science that supports The Law of Attraction as an effective tool for self-discovery and offers a guide to discovering your authentic self to access your best life now.

Self-help books like The Secret show us that if we can tap into “The Law of Attraction,” we have the power to change our destiny simply by reshaping our mind. Millions of people have used the ancient systems of manifestation and visualization to find health, success, love, friendship, wealth, and more. But does the “Law of Attraction” actually work? And more important, is this kind of life-changing philosophy within reach for everyone, even the most skeptical among us?

As Dr. Tara Swart, psychiatrist, neuroscientist, and Senior Lecturer at MIT shows us in The Source, if we can strip away our skepticism, these ancient tools of manifestation and visualization are fundamentally powerful and incredibly effective at freeing us of self-limiting behaviors and propelling us toward our truest, most authentic selves. Swart reveals how and why these systems actually work by offering the latest breakthroughs in neuroscience and behavioral psychology, including lessons in neuroplasticity, magneticism, emotional and logical thinking, and even hydration, self-care, and relaxation. Next, she describes her own journey from skeptic to believer, and guides readers through the scientific breakthroughs and personal revelations that changed her from an unhappy, close-minded, and disconnected woman wanting more from life, to a successful entrepreneur living with confidence, purpose, and joy.

Living with a lack mindset gets in the way of positive change, keeping us stuck and stagnant. It makes us cling to what we have, because we are hyper-aware of what we don't have. We fear losing anything and become intensely risk-averse, and a brain that is overly attuned to threat can't facilitate flexible and abundant thinking, or engage in full brain-body decision-making.

By definition if you stand for science, you stand for being comfortable with failure and moving forward with an appetite or new learning and continuous improvement.

We should each be drinking half a litre of water a day for every 15kg of our body weight.

A creative brain is one that can put ideas to use in unexpected ways, using contrasting combinations of thoughts to foster new ones. This is the new (and at the same time, ancient) superpower of the human mind: to reinvent, imagine, improve and rethink.

Quite simply, when you do allow your brain to be conscious of and focus on what you want in life, the raised awareness that results will work in your favour to automatically bring opportunities into your life. It's not magic - it's just that you are able to see the possibilities to move forward with your dreams in a way that your brain was hiding from you previously.
