He'll walk us through his theory that our thinking is powered by scalar energy, a more abundant and available energy that can make us smarter and healthier.

Tom is also offering listeners a chance to experience this for themselves with a 15-day free session on his website, scalarlight.com.

Tune in for a thought-provoking episode that will leave you contemplating the true power of energy in our lives.
