The latest research and epigenetics says we're not doomed by our genes,
that in fact, we're marvels of adaptability and change!
So, as a person started to contemplate and think about who do I want to be
when I open my eye, what would it be like to be happy?
What would it be like to live a new life?
The frontal lobe is looking out into the landscape of the entire brain
because it has connections to the entire neocortex. And it's got to
resolve the problem.
So it starts calling up different networks of neurons that are
relevant to the question
based on the knowledge the person learns or the
experiences that they had. And it begins to seamlessly piece together
this new understanding.
And that's called "intention".
And so, if you're reading a book about how to become more happy, or if
you're reading a book on how to be a leader in your life or you're
studying the process, every time you learn something new, you
add new connections to your brain. So now you have the raw materials for
you to imagine even more!
So, the act of mentally rehearsing begins to install the neurological hardware
in your brain to look like it's already happened!
Now, the brain is typically a record of the past, but the moment we
install the neurological hardware, it becomes a map to the future!
And you keep doing that, the hardware becomes a software program.
Which means - you start thinking like a genius, you start acting like a happy
person because there's no mystery there, because you installed the circuits.
And then these people
didn't wait for their wealth or their health to feel gratitude and to
feel empowered or to feel love, a love for life.
They began to feel those emotions ahead of the experience.
And their body, as the unconscious mind, doesn't know the difference
between the experience in their life that creates the emotion and the
emotion that they're creating by thought alone.
The body's believing it's living in the future
in the present moment! And the stronger the emotion that they felt,
the more they're going to pay attention to the thoughts they're thinking.
And now all of a sudden, they're changing their biology from living in the
past present reality to living in the future present reality.
And I was so intrigued by this process that I went back to school to
study neuroscience because it was the answer.
So then, the last thing they had in common which I thought was so
amazing, is that in the internal process of rehearsing and imagining,
they had long moments where they lost track of time and space,
when they opened their eyes, they thought
it was maybe 15-20 minutes later and it was an hour and 15 minutes later.
And when we get into the present moment, there's a moment
where you lose track of yourself, you forget about yourself. And only
in the present moment
do you have access, according to the quantum model of reality, to other
possibilities!
And when you're truly in the present moment, the generous present moment,
that's the moment then
that you are no longer living in the familiar past or the predictable future.
And in order for us to change,
I realized that we have to get beyond our environment. And what's our
environment made of? People, husbands, kids, bosses, objects, things, places.
You got to get beyond your emotions, your body, your pain, your
disease, and you got to get beyond this concept of linear time!
So when we get beyond our body, our environment, and time, we become pure
consciousness. And now that consciousness can begin to connect to the
consciousness of the field. And all of a sudden, I realized that when
people are nobody, no one, no thing,
nowhere and no time,
that's the moment
they're no longer a face.
They're are no longer a culture.
They're no longer a skin color, they're no longer a mother.
They're no longer grandmother, no longer a doctor, an attorney.
They're no longer of nurse, they're pure consciousness. And that is the
element that we begin to connect to something greater.
So, I wrote a book about it and then I wound up on this
documentary called "What the bleep do we know". And that became an
overnight sensation.
And we did all these conferences, all the scientists all over the
world. And at the end of every conference, we had panel discussions,
and I started listening to the people's questions during those panel
discussions.
And they asked really 3 important questions:
How do we do it?
Which is a good question.
How do our thoughts
affect our body or our life? Second question - if our personality creates
our personal reality, and it does,
and our personality is made up of how we think, how we act, and how we feel,
in order for me to change
my personal reality,
I have to change my personality.
Why the hell is it so hard to change?
And I thought that was a really good question.
And the third thing was - what do you do?
So, I started teaching these Friday night, all day Saturday events
and giving people the understanding
of brain science, and brain waves, and the quantum model, and showing them
pictures of neurons
connecting and disconnecting, what neural nets are, how the brain
works and what focused concentration looks like. And begin to create
something where people could really begin to practice at home.
And basically, I said: Okay,
well, if these are the 4 principles that these people used in my
first book to heal based on my investigation, it should work for sick
people and normal people, the process
is exactly the same.
We got to unlearn and re-learn. We got to break the habit of the old
self, reinvent a new self.
We got to unfire and unwire, and re-fire and re-wire.
We have to prune synaptic connections and sprout new connections.
Unmemorize emotions stored in the body.
And then we have to recondition the body to a new mind and to a new
emotion. To stop signaling the same genes in the same way and begin to
signal new genes in new ways. To pull our attention and our energy out
of the familiar past and begin to invest our attention and energy into
a new future, to go from the known to the unknown.
So, the model was built and we started doing these workshops all over
the world, from Australia to Mexico to Colombia to Canada to the United
States to South Africa to all over Europe.
We were teaching these events.
And you know, to be honest with you, the first year I didn't see
many changes.
We saw some people be happier, a greater sense of well-being.
But no real breakthroughs. But at the end of these introductory
level courses, people would ask:
Can you teach another level?
So I taught a level 2, and then at the end of that, they said: Could you
teach another level?
Then we taught a level 3.
And then they said: Can you teach another level?
And I said: I don't know anything else, I ran out. But right around that
point I started having some really profound mystical experiences.
Those mystical moments were so profound that I couldn't go back to be
Joe Dispenza again. And all of a sudden, I realized that every
time I had one of those mystical moments,
the first thing that I came to
when I came back to who I was was - I have this all wrong. Like some
layer of conditioning, how we're so unconscious to how we view the world.
Some layer, some veil was lifted. And then all of a sudden, I got very
passionate about the mystical. And so we started teaching a level 3.5.
And then, right around this time all of a sudden people
started sending the emails in: My God.
I was diagnosed with this condition.
I was trying to get this job and I changed my energy.
I changed this and I started doing the work and my body's healthy.
Here is the blood test.
Here's the scans.
And all of a sudden we started seeing that it started to catch on.
All thoughts have a frequency.
You can't... The emotion of guilt, the energy of suffering cannot carry
the thought of abundance or health. Because it's not the same energy!
And just like you could say: I'm healthy.
I'm healthy.
I'm healthy with your conscious mind.
And if your body's been emotionally conditioned into
unhappiness or pain, that thought never makes it to your body,
and there's no connection between the mind and body.
So, when people elevate their emotional states, like in a state of
gratitude, the emotional signature of gratitude means the event is
already happened.
It means when you give thanks, you're getting something.
So, when you start giving thanks, your body's in a perfect state of receiving!
So, we want people to change their energy and to create this heart
coherence, and we want to measure them.
We want to know that... We can say to them you're doing it or you're not
doing it.
Well, if you understand the science of the placebo, you know giving
someone a sugar pill or a saline injection or performing some false
surgery or procedure, a certain percentage of those people will accept,
believe, and surrender to the thought that they're getting the real
substance or treatment.
And they begin to program their autonomic nervous system to make the
exact pharmacy of chemicals equal to the substance
they think they're taking. Now,
that's not light dinner conversation.
That means then that that pill, which is an inert substance, is a
symbol that represents a possibility in the quantum field!
And they begin to think about that possibility called "getting well".
And a certain percentage of those people will begin to feel
optimistic, enthusiastic, excited, inspired, and they're combining a clear
intention with an elevated emotion.
And they're beginning to reprogram their autonomic nervous system.
I mean, think about it.
Over 80% of the people that are in a depression study, brain scans
before and after, 80% of those people have a significant change
equal to people that are actually given the real substance, the people
that are given the placebo.
That means 4 out of5 people are responding to the placebo,
just like an antidepressant.
The brain scans at the end of 60 days show a dramatic change in
their brain.
That means they're making their own pharmacy of antidepressants by
thought alone!
So I thought: Well, once I understand the dynamics, the science
of the placebo,
can I teach It?
Well, turns out that our students are able to do it. Because you don't
need the sugar pill or the saline injection
to combine a clear intention with an elevated emotion. Instead of
selecting a known like a pill, select an unknown in the quantum
field. And keep revisiting it until you biologically
make it known! And do it over and over again till you begin to program
the gene to begin to
express itself!
