Our brain connects to our bodies to control its functions. The body is surrounded by an energy field and the brain sends signals to it with the help of that energy field (brain > central nervous system > subtle energies). Every little thing the body does is affected by our brain activity. Thoughts, expectations, and intentions have some effect on this. It goes even further. We're connected to the environment around us through subtle energies. This makes telepathy and other psychic phenomena possible. Most people just don't pay it any attention so they can't tap into it. I practiced a little bit of remote viewing for a while and had some interesting results. The most interesting was getting a piece of paper sitting on the head of a pin that was under a glass cover to spin in whichever direction I focused my thoughts on.
