Unlocking the Power of Your Instincts with Dr Tara Swart

Have you ever thought of someone just before they called? Or experienced a coincidence that felt too unlikely to be true? It’s easy to dismiss these moments as chance. But what if they weren’t? And what if, by learning to tune into them, you could access wisdom that would help you overcome challenges and live with purpose?

On September 22, Dr Tara Swart, neuroscientist, executive coach, and bestselling author of The Source comes to Intelligence Squared to discuss how your instincts and senses are sending you important messages you are probably missing. These are ‘the signs’ and they can guide you to your best life – if you can tune your mind to receive them.

Drawing on research of people who have had near-death experiences, she will demonstrate why they tend to come away with a different perspective on life. She will discuss the science of how we can all open our minds to the things around us that will help us discover purpose and achieve our goals without fear.

Join us live at Union Chapel and ask your questions in the audience Q&A!
