The Wild Sovereign Soul Show How to Shape Your Mind to Serve Your Soul - Lian Brook-Tyler
Wild Sovereign Soul co-founder and guide, Lian, has spent over a decade studying and applying the psychological principle of priming - she explains how your environment shapes your attention and behaviour every day, and how to consciously change what is training your mind, body and identity.
This episode is Lian's All The Everything show… her solo space where she dives deeply into a theme that is alive for her, which, if you know her, could be literally anything - explored through the lenses of science, spirituality and story - hence the name of the show!
It is created for those who feel called toward a soulful life shaped by meaning, depth, truth, and love… for those who feel unsatisfied with quick answers or surface level takes. This is a rich rabbit hole that Lian journeys through alongside you. She speaks from her own lived experience and unfolding process… while inviting you into your own as you listen.
The LIVE making of All The Everything is recorded live on YouTube… to join Lian for the next one: Make sure you're subscribed to our YouTube channel, subscribed to our Moonly News email list and/or are a member of our Facebook group and we'll let you know when the next one is happening.
In this episode, Lian explores the powerful principle of priming, the way exposure to words, images, spaces and repetition shapes what we notice, how we interpret events, and even how our bodies respond.
She traces the idea from its Latin roots through cognitive science, including research showing how older men immersed in a younger environment showed measurable changes in posture, memory and grip strength, and then widens into myth, from the Lotus Eaters to Persephone, to show how land and culture train identity.
She brings it home to the rooms we sit in, the clothes we wear, the pace we keep, and the symbols we wake up to each morning, asking what qualities our spaces repeatedly reinforce, and what future self they are rehearsing.
Listen if you scroll late at night without meaning to, walk into certain rooms and feel your shoulders tighten, or sense that your days are shaping you in ways you have not consciously chosen.
