  • Life Changing Synchronicities: The Book | Bernard Beitman, EP 419
    Dec 16 2025

    Have you ever experienced a coincidence so striking it changed the way you see life? In this solo episode, our very own psychiatrist and synchronicity researcher Dr. Bernard Beitman shares stories from his new book Life Changing Synchronicities. Through deeply personal moments, from his childhood dog mysteriously reappearing at just the right time, to precognitive flashes on the football field, to the uncanny experience of feeling his father’s death from 3,000 miles away, Bernie illustrates how synchronicity is woven into the fabric of our lives.He explains how the psychology of noticing coincidences can change the way we think, how synchronicity reveals our connection to each other and to the Earth, and how phenomena like simulpathity—feeling at a distance with loved ones—open our awareness to unseen bonds. These experiences show why synchronicity often arrives as a guide, encouraging us to open new doors in life. Dr. Beitman invites you to begin your own coincidence diary, a practice that can help reveal the hidden patterns shaping your journey.Dr. Bernard Beitman, MD, is a Yale- and Stanford-trained psychiatrist, founder of The Coincidence Project, and host of Connecting with Coincidence. He has authored multiple books including Connecting with Coincidence and Meaningful Coincidences, and is a pioneer in the emerging field of Coincidence Studies.Please feel free to check out Dr. Beitman's new book "Life Changing Synchronicities: A Doctor's Journey of Coincidence & Synchronicity" available now! #coincidence #serendipity #synchronicity 00:00 - 02:15 Precognition on the Field02:15 - 09:00 What Synchronicity Really Means09:00 - 13:45 Coincidences as Guidance and Telepathy13:45 - 20:30 The Snapper Story: Love and Inner GPS20:30 - 27:00 School Lessons and Sports Serendipities27:00 - 36:00 Simulpathity and My Father’s Passing36:00 - 51:00 Opening Doors: Books, Hippies, and New Paths

  • To Connect with Nature, Believe! | Issy Clark, EP 418
    Dec 10 2025

    Trees are conscious beings that are able to communicate with us in surprising ways. This was not always surprising, however. They likely send out electromagnetic frequencies that our minds translate into familiar words and images.In this episode of Connecting with Coincidence, Dr. Bernard Beitman and Isabella Clark explore the long history of communication between humans and trees. Together, they remind us that trees want to connect, and that rediscovering this bond can help us restore the relationship we have lost with the living world around us.Isabella Clarke is an independent researcher who has written and presented on non-human animal cultures and relationships with the more-than-human. She is particularly interested in wild Animals and Plants. Her studies embrace the factual and scientific, the theoretical and ethical, and the speculative and imaginal. She works as a broadcast journalist (covering sports) and volunteers for various conservation organizations in her home country, the UK. She is also on the Stewardship Council of The Kerulos Center for Nonviolence. https://www.coronaandthecrone.com/blog
