Publisher's summary

In this audiobook, New York Times best-selling author and 2018 Templeton Award nominee Gregg Braden crosses the traditional boundaries of science and spirituality to answer the timeless question at the core of our existence - Who are we? - and to reveal science-based techniques that awaken our uniquely human experiences of deep intuition, precognition, advanced states of self-healing, and much more!

In one of the great ironies of the modern world, the science that was expected to solve life’s mysteries has done just the opposite. New discoveries have led to more unanswered questions, created deeper mysteries, and brought us to the brink of forbidden territory when it comes to explaining our origin and existence. The Science of Self-Empowerment invites us on a journey beyond Darwin’s theory of evolution to explore these discoveries and the facts they reveal:

Fact 1. Our origin - Modern humans appeared suddenly on earth approximately 200,000 years ago, with the advanced brain, nervous system, and capabilities that set them apart from all other known forms of life already developed, rather than having developed slowly and gradually over a long period of time.

Fact 2. Missing physical evidence - The relationships shown on the conventional tree of human evolution are speculative connections only. While they are believed to exist, a 150-year search has failed to produce the physical evidence that confirms the relationships shown on the evolutionary family tree.

Fact 3. New DNA evidence - The comparison of DNA between ancient Neanderthals, previously thought to be our ancestors, and early humans tells us that we did not descend from the Neanderthals.

Fact 4. A rare DNA fusion - Advanced genome analysis reveals that the DNA that sets us apart from other primates, including in our advanced brain and nervous system, is the result of an ancient and precise fusion of genes occurring in a way that suggests something beyond evolution made our humanness possible.

Fact 5. Our extraordinary abilities - We are born with the capacity to self-heal, to self-regulate longevity, to activate an enhanced immune response, and to experience deep intuition, sympathy, empathy, and, ultimately, compassion - and to do each of these on demand.

Beyond any reasonable doubt, The Science of Self-Empowerment reveals that we’re not what we’ve been told, and much more than we’ve ever imagined.

Note: This audiobook is based on The Science of Self-Empowerment by Gregg Braden, a book previously published as Human by Design.​

Vital Information

The information in this book should be available in every classroom. I've listened to it twice in a row and plan on listening to it again on a 4hr drive I have today. Just the info on telomeres is worth the price of the book and there is so, so much more value than that.

Interesting Audio Format Adaptations

The great subject material alone is 5-star knowledge and I think the author did a very good job in the format, cadence and clarity are excellent and always nice when you have the authentic voice and it's comfortable for the reader. Sometimes a bit wordy to the point of being reminiscent of the “My Theory” skit on Monty Python lol but I think it is intentional and ends up being appreciated by the listener as it sort of replaces the ‘go back and read that again' requirement of a lot of deep subjects, either through preparing you to listen in advance as a sort of cue, or through repetition, and without having to rewind - as often. That could maybe be targeted and minimized a bit on future versions, and I personally skipped the worksheet sort of stuff, but overall really worth the time and many parts I look forward to listening to again and recommending to those who dare to seek higher knowledge!

Love Gregg Braden

Gregg Braden goes out on a limb in so many ways, by combining science and spirituality. I like that. After all we are spiritual beings who have lost the spiritual aspect when you evaluate society as a whole. He has connected it in an understandable way, providing solid science to back up our existence and methods of transforming our future. Every person needs to read or listen to his books and lectures.

Gold

This is an absolute MUST READ for the path of alternative & open minded thinking. You may not agree with everything but taking a moment to explore the “what if” aspect and contemplate that everything we have been taught has not been expressed through well meaning agendas is worth speculating.

Enlightening

Gregg Braden through this book and his other works has left no dought in my mind that my previous introduction to how we were created is completely wrong and misleading.
His suggestions as to how we should view and live our lives is breathtaking and exciting.
Thank You Gregg!
