Show Notes
Have you ever wondered why certain patterns keep showing up in your life… even after years of personal growth?
Maybe you know what you want. You've read the books, practiced affirmations, visualized your dreams, and worked on your mindset. Yet somehow, the same fears, doubts, or frustrations continue to surface.
What if the real obstacle isn't a lack of effort—but an unconscious belief you've been carrying since childhood?
In this powerful episode of Living in the Miracle Zone, Marci sits down with her dear friend and renowned belief expert Shelly Lefkoe, co-founder of the Lefkoe Institute. For nearly four decades, Shelly has helped thousands of people permanently eliminate the hidden beliefs that fuel self-doubt, anxiety, procrastination, and emotional suffering.
Together, they explore how these beliefs are formed, why they feel so true, and—most importantly—how you can begin releasing them so you can experience greater freedom, joy, and possibility.
Shelly even guides Marci through a live belief-elimination process, giving you a firsthand experience of how quickly your perspective—and your life—can shift.
In this episode, you'll discover: - Why limiting beliefs are conclusions, not facts—and how that changes everything - The surprising reason affirmations often don't create lasting transformation - How childhood experiences quietly shape your relationships, confidence, money, and success as an adult - Why you don't actually react to events—you react to the meaning you give them - A simple question that can instantly loosen the grip of fear, self-doubt, and anxiety - The crucial difference between a pattern and the belief that's creating it - Why emotional freedom doesn't have to take years of inner work - A practical exercise you can begin using today to question the stories your mind automatically creates - How releasing limiting beliefs allows you to experience more ease, authenticity, and miracles in everyday life
Whether you've been on a personal growth journey for decades or you're just beginning to explore the power of your mindset, this conversation offers a fresh, compassionate perspective that may completely change the way you see yourself—and your past. Because the truth is…
You are not your beliefs.
And when the beliefs that have been holding you back begin to dissolve, life opens in ways you may never have imagined. Tune in and discover how to step beyond the stories you've been living—and into the freedom that's been waiting for you all along.

What if sound isn't just something we hear, but the very force that created the world? In today's episode of Your Year of Miracles, I'm joined by my dear friend and soul sister Lynne McTaggart, award-winning author of The Field and The Intention Experiment, and author of the new book The God Notes. We explore the science of sound healing, the frequencies that shape our bodies and minds, and the surprising evidence that music was here long before we were. Lynne shares what she uncovered as an investigative journalist digging into published research from scientists at Oxford, Cambridge, Harvard, MIT, and UCLA, the ancient sites built to resonate to a single note, and the "God notes" that can help us heal, transcend, and live more fully in the Miracle Zone. Here's what you'll hear: How sound created the world Why our cells hum and communicate through sound The music red blood cells love most The ancient sites that all resonate to the same note The B-flat note that black holes make The sounds that may be working against you How the Santa Ana winds affect our moods The two tuning fork notes that calm the mind How binaural beats shift the brain Why the universe was never an accident So, I invite you to listen with fresh ears this week, and notice how the sounds around you affect your body, your mood, and your spirit.

Her books are in some 30 languages. She is also the architect of the Intention Experiments, a web-based "global laboratory" to test the power of intention to heal the world, and she was prominently featured in the plotline of Dan Brown's blockbuster The Lost Symbol.

Do you find yourself thinking too much? What if the fastest way to quiet a busy mind doesn't involve your mind at all? In today's episode of Your Year of Miracles, we'll explore how the power of sound can help quiet the mind and create a deeper sense of peace—something we've already known how to do even before we can talk. I'll be sharing my own journey into sound healing, the three powerful reasons sound can bring you peace, and we'll also have an actual experience of how sound healing can help you slow down, receive, and open your heart. In this episode, you'll discover: How Jim's harmonies of light got me into sound healing
What if something as simple as sound could help shift your brain, calm your nervous system, and change the way you feel? Sound is so much more than something we hear. It's vibration—and according to sound designer and meditation technology expert Marc Gilson, our brains and bodies are wired to respond to it. In this fascinating episode of Living in the Miracle Zone, I sit down with Marc to explore the surprising science and healing potential of sound. Marc has spent more than 30 years working with brainwave entrainment, therapeutic sound, music, and meditation technology, and he shares why sound can have such a profound effect on our physical and emotional state. Marc also tells an unforgettable story from his early days as a musician, when his band performed at a school for hearing-impaired children. Watching the students dance, touch the speakers, and literally feel the music changed the way he understood sound forever. We explore how binaural beats and brainwave entrainment work, why certain sounds may help us move into deeper states of relaxation and meditation, and how music, humming, chanting, nature sounds, and other forms of therapeutic sound can affect the way we feel. And the best part? Working with sound doesn't have to be complicated. You don't need to master a special technique. Sometimes all you have to do is listen. In this episode, you'll discover: Why sound isn't just an auditory experience—it's something your whole body can feel
