Episode 2 - Perception Is Reality: Train Your Brain with the Reticular Activating System

Описание: Perception Is Reality – How the Reticular Activating System Shapes Your World

Ever wondered why, the moment you think about buying a red car, you suddenly see red cars everywhere? Or why a passing comment can stick in your mind all day while other things barely register?

That’s not a coincidence—it’s your brain’s filter at work.

In this episode of The Happiness Hack with Tim Coulson, we dive into the Reticular Activating System (RAS)—a network in your brain with a massive influence on what you notice, what you ignore, and ultimately, how you experience reality.

You’ll learn:

The science of how your brain filters information (and why it matters).

Real-life examples of the RAS in action—from goal setting to social media scrolling.

How perception literally shapes your reality, relationships, and happiness.

Practical ways to train your RAS so it works for you, not against you.

This isn’t just neuroscience—it’s a roadmap to creating the life you want.

When you understand your brain’s filter, you unlock the ability to shift focus, reframe challenges, and start noticing the opportunities that were there all along.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, unseen, or like life is passing you by, this episode will give you a powerful “aha!” moment about why that happens—and what you can do to change it.

Stick around until the end for this week’s Happiness Hack, where I’ll share a simple, science-backed way to prime your RAS and start changing the story your brain tells you—one small shift at a time.

Because remember: the day is what you make it.
