Have you ever wondered why paranormal encounters feel so different from person to person? It might not just be the spirits—it could be your brain. In this episode, we dive deep into the psychology of thought and explore the many ways people think: inner monologues, vivid mental imagery, emotional reasoning, gut instincts, and more.
We unpack how these different cognitive styles shape how we perceive the world around us—and why paranormal experiences can look, feel, and sound so unique depending on the way your brain processes information.
Episode Highlights:
🧠 The variety of cognitive styles—from constant inner speech to wordless knowing
🖼️ Why some people think almost entirely in images, while others process emotions or bodily sensations
💓 How emotional thinkers interpret paranormal energy as feelings rather than visuals or words
🔄 The role of associative and non-linear thinking in spotting patterns and synchronicities
👻 How neurodivergence like ADHD and autism can heighten or alter paranormal perception
⚖️ The believer vs skeptic perspectives on why people perceive paranormal events differently
So grab your thought journal, ghost hunting kit, and your weirdest intrusive thought, and get ready to explore the psychology of thought.
