Third Eye Science
Blurring the lines between science and spirituality.
In the Third Eye Science podcast, Susan von Thun and her guests will explore the lines between science and spirituality. As a scientist and yogi, Susan has found that these two realms do not have to be mutually exclusive. With the perspective of a logical scientist, she has navigated her own spiritual journey with a curious, open mind. She’ll share lessons and tools she found along the way and have compelling conversations with spiritual leaders, teachers, yogis, healers and fellow travelers about their experiences and practices. In this age of information and misinformation, it’s time to interpret and understand the world with your third eye.

Ep 150: What energizes you?
Do you ever feel like you're just going through the motions and doing things you "have to" do when and how you've always done them? I do and I recently got some advice from a trusted mentor to ask myself in those moments: What energizes me? Maybe there's another time or way to do that thing you have to do that could be more energizing. I've been following this guidance over the last few weeks and have found that it is incredibly empowering.
Ep 149: Your Words Create Your Reality
Words and thoughts are things. They make real your inner vibration. Now that we are in Gemini season, we are invited to communicate consciously and intentionally. Become even more intentional about our words and even our meta dialog–the mindstream or thoughts we engage with daily. This is also a powerful time to commit to cleaning up our communication by not engaging in gossip, complaining, or comparing. Join me in this practice to expand into our true, loving, compassionate selves by releasing judgment of ourselves and others. Let's elevate our communication this Gemini season and see how it shifts our reality!
Ep 148: What would your life look like if you prioritized your Soul?
There is so much competition for our time and energy, and often, those external demands take over the majority of life. But what would happen if you determined what YOU need to do to fulfill your Soul and prioritize THAT over all other things? This will look different for every person. From taking care of your body as a vessel for the Soul to listening deeply in meditation and silence, there are many ways we can do this. I can't answer what it would look like for you. In this episode, I share what it looks like for me. I encourage you to dive deep into what your Soul desires and needs of you right now and commit to doing it every day.
Ep 147: What does Presence really mean and how can we use it to grow?
We hear the word presence all the time in yoga, meditation, and wellness circles, but what does that really mean? In our modern age, we are bombarded by distractions that are pulling our thoughts and energy in a million directions. It's also built into our brains and nervous system as a whole to be constantly aware of our surroundings for evolutionary reasons. We are often thinking about the past or visualizing the future. But when we connect with the present moment—whether we are working, creating, having a moment with our loved ones, or meditating—we are able to connect with our true Selves and magnetize love and abundance.
Ep 146: What does home mean to you?
Home is more than the buildings we live in. It is an energy, a vibration, an energetic signature. We can be at home anywhere on Earth. We can be at home no matter where we are if we cultivate the comfort, safety, and love within. And when you do this for yourself through yoga, meditation, and other spiritual practices, you open your receptivity to more fully embody all that you are.
