What if your houseplants were more than just decorative greenery? What if they were… listening?
In this Metaphysical Moment episode, Will dives leaf-first into the fascinating world of plant consciousness and emotional energy.

Inspired by the infamous 1960s polygraph experiment by Cleve Backster, we explore the mind-blowing idea that plants might be far more aware than we give them credit for—and maybe even tuned in to our thoughts and emotions.
 
From CIA-level lie detector tests on dracaena plants to forest bathing, mimosa memory, and the possibility of a living, breathing consciousness field, this episode delivers a playful-yet-thought-provoking journey into the mystical side of the plant kingdom.
 
So grab your favorite fern, whisper “thank you” to your ficus, and join us as we ask: Can plants feel? Can they learn? And just maybe… can they read your mind?

🔍 What You’ll Discover:
  • The bizarre CIA-rooted origins of plant consciousness studies
  • Why a polygraph machine changed everything about how we view plants
  • The science behind “Primary Perception” and emotional resonance
  • Indigenous and spiritual views on the wisdom of plant beings
  • What forest bathing, music, and talking to your plants might actually do
  • Why treating your plants like sentient beings might elevate your own consciousness
