Short Reading List for the Neuroscience and the Psychology of Why and How “Manifesting” Works
Rethinking Positive Thinking - Gabriele Oettingen
Oettingen’s strategy: “Mental Contrasting with Implementation Intentions (MCII)
Visualization of desired future
Visualization of obstacles
Concrete planning
The Source - Tara Swart, MD
Need to read it critically b/c her claims reach beyond current evidence, but this is good as a scientifically literate manifestation book. It talks about things like RAS (Reticular Activating System), cognitive bias, connection between emotion and attention, etc.
Mind Magic: The Neuroscience of Manifestation and How It Changes Everything - James Doty, MD
Neuroscience of intention - directing attention, regulating emotion, and clarifying purpose can change your life, because you alter brain/behavior.
The Brain that Changes Itself - Norman Doidge, MD
Although this is not about manifestation directly, it discusses how/why repeated thoughts, attention, and practice reshape neural circuits over time.
“Implementation Intentions and Goal Achievement: A Meta‐analysis of Effects and Processes” - Peter M. Gollwitzer, Paschal Sheeran
