Sometimes life can be a chore. We know we are stuck but we just can’t seem to make a change. We have dreams and such high hopes but every time we try to push forward, we only get more heartache.

Playing the Quantum Field looks at the energy behind the choices we make in life. Mostly, we don’t even recognize that we are hijacking ourselves at every turn. The good news is that we have a choice. We can choose low energy fear based activities like staying in our comfort zone, having head trips, getting suck in loops, magnetizing trouble, or falling into the black hole of despair. Just as easily though, we can make high energy power based choices of suspending judgment, lightening up, tuning in, scanning, tapping the truth, believing, and allowing a breakthrough.

Perhaps, the most important aspect of Playing the Quantum Field though is that it reminds us all that life isn’t black and white. Sometimes, we need to wallow in that black hole for a bit until we see what needs to change in our lives. Sometimes, a breakthrough happens in an instant. Each of these experiences is valuable in its own way.

"Playing the Quantum Field" presents an idea that clear intentions can trigger events in a universal "Field" to manifest desired outcomes. Empowering concept, emphasizing personal responsibility and mindfulness about how we use our energy. It encourages readers to focus on what truly matters, potentially reducing stress and increasing satisfaction.

However like many of these kinds of books it lacks scientific support, making its central premise you could say somewhat speculative. It also oversimplifies life's complexities, suggesting that merely setting intentions can replace active effort and planning. This could mislead readers into a passive approach to challenges. The advice to stop trying to control outcomes might promote passivity, although the intent is likely to encourage a healthier relationship with uncertainty. And, though it is one of Buddhist principles, which emphasize acceptance and the futility of clinging to control. By releasing the need to manipulate every aspect of life, individuals can find peace and reduce anxiety. This approach can be beneficial, fostering a sense of calm and acceptance in the face of life's inherent unpredictability.

Furthermore, the book uses vague terms like "energy fields" and "tuning in," which can be difficult to grasp and apply practically. While it offers some valuable insights, readers should approach it critically and be ready to supplement its ideas with more concrete strategies for personal growth.

It has a lot of information I already knew for the set up. She focuses on the way to "Play" is about changing your thinking more than "doing" anything. This change in thought process might change your choices and your doing, but the thought has to come first. I got the most out of the Scan chapter.

If I had read this years ago before I was exposed to much of these ideas I would have gotten more out of it. Definitely a starter or mid-level book for the idea that how we view the world makes a difference.

At least once a year, I like to read a book that tries to explain how we think. (A lot of the time, it is categorized under 'Self Help'). This books talks about the difference between power v. force and how making decisions can be easier or more difficult depending on which path one chooses. This book was a nice introduction to the Power v. Force theory.
