      • May Flowers Pt 4/4 | Quantum Physics and God's "Will"

        How do I know what God's will is for my life?

        How do I make the "right" decision and know it is what God wants me to do?

        This episode looks at quantum physics at the most elementary level to discover how we can or can't know God's will and why.

        Do I really have power over my own life choices and how can I go about making decisions with confidence?

        Here's a video on quantum physics that was made for kids and super easy to understand. It highlights the discovery that the OBSERVER is what makes our reality real. This is what manifestation really is!

      • May Flowers Pt 3/4 | Live An Authentic Life

        We are programmed by outside influences to be and act a certain way, even from infancy.

        In many religious circles, mental and emotional health relied on how close we were to Jesus. As if being depressed just meant we were doing something wrong in our spiritual walk.

        But what did that look like to Jesus? Did Jesus ever need a "mental health day?"

        How might a deeper understanding of quantum science discoveries of the last 100 years blow the whole religious world to bits? And help YOU live your most Fully Abundant Life??

        This episode is JAM PACKED! Enjoy!

        Here is an explanation of the double slit experiment in quantum physics where scientists discovered that the role of an OBSERVER is absolutely KEY to manifesting anything in reality! It's a video created for kids, which meant I could finally engage with smart people! LOL!
