What do Zen detachment and the Law of Attraction have in common? More than you might expect.

In this expansive episode of Vibrations and Manifestations, Jared and Alicia explore the philosophical showdown between Alan Watts—known for his ego-melting insights and poetic metaphysics—and Abraham Hicks, whose teachings on deliberate creation, emotional guidance, and vibrational alignment have influenced countless manifestors.

Together, we’ll explore:

  • The cultural moment that gave rise to Alan Watts

  • What it means to be a “genuine fake” in a playful, interconnected universe

  • The surprising overlap between surrender and focus

  • How modern neuroscience supports both Watts and Abraham (think: ego dissolution, the Default Mode Network, and neuroplasticity)

  • A guided visualization in a cosmic 1960s jazz lounge

    • A debug mode segment for anyone wondering, “Am I caring too much to let go?”

    This episode is both thought-provoking and grounding—perfect for those who want to float, manifest, or just sit back and enjoy the cosmic dance.
