What if everything you thought you knew about channeling is wrong? Dr. Helané Wahbeh (Director of Research at the Institute of Noetic Sciences and author of The Science of Channeling) reveals the science, psychology, and real-world practice behind one of the world's most misunderstood phenomena. In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, she shares how she unexpectedly began trance channeling as a child after witnessing her grandparents' séance sessions, and answers the biggest questions people have about channeling today. You'll discover: - Who are people really channeling? Spirit guides, higher self, deceased loved ones, or something else? - Can one person channel multiple beings? - Crucial differences between channeling, trance channeling, and mediumship - How renowned channelers like Lee Harris & Darryl Anka actually channel, and what makes their approaches different - Can anyone learn to channel? How to discover your natural channeling style and why your genetics may influence your intuitive strengths - Are you neurodivergent... or are you awakening to latent psi abilities? - Surprising difference between intuition and psychic ability - Hidden ways you're already receiving nonlocal information without realizing it - How channeling can dramatically improve your everyday life in ways most people never consider - Shocking ways unseen "Noetic Signatures" may be influencing your thoughts, emotions, health, and life, and how they can quietly sabotage you if you don't recognize them - 12 characteristics of Noetic Signatures and how to tell them apart from ordinary physical sensations - Can your Noetic Signature change over time? Why most people actually have multiple signatures. - Importance of energetic boundaries and practical energetic maintenance habits everyone should know - Science behind the chakra system and what current research suggests - Why intention is one of the most important factors when channeling and how to use it effectively - Why ego-clearing practices like psychotherapy, hypnosis, and self-awareness are essential for receiving clearer information - How unconscious personality patterns act as filters that can distort channeled messages - Why balancing intellect and intuition is critical, and how to avoid outsourcing your personal power to channeled information - Why so many people feel disconnected from their extrasensory abilities, and how our externally focused culture may be contributing Whether you're deeply experienced with channeling or simply curious about consciousness, intuition, and the frontiers of human potential, this conversation bridges rigorous scientific research with practical spiritual exploration in a grounded and thought-provoking way.
