Gratitude, the emotional signature of gratitude means something's
happening to you.
Something has happened to you.
You're receiving something, or you just received something.
So your body then, when you're feeling gratitude, is in the perfect
state of receiving!
Let's stop telling the story of your past and let's start telling the
story of your future! And people who aren't defined by a vision of the future,
for the most part are left with memories of the past. Your brain
is a record of the past.
It's an artifact
of everything you've learned and experienced to this moment.
So, most people wake up in the morning and they start thinking about
their problems.
And those problems are memories that are tattooed in the brain, that
are associated with certain people and things at certain times and places.
So, the person wakes up clean slate,
they start thinking about the problems.
They're thinking in the past.
If you believe your thoughts have something to do with your destiny,
well, there's a possibility that your past is going to be your future!
Every one of those problems has an emotion associated with it.
So then, the moment you start recalling the problem,
you start feeling unhappy,
now your body's in the past. Because thoughts of the language of the past
and feelings
are the language of the body. And how you think and how you feel creates
a state of being.
So, people reaffirm their identity based
based on the past, right?
And it turns out that the redundancy of doing that, conditioning only requires
an image and emotion.
And most people are unconsciously conditioning their body into the
familiar past, into the known.
So now, if you're in the familiar past, in the known, you're going
to crave the predictable future, right?
That's the known as well.
And there's only one place where the unknown exist.
And that's the eternal present moment!
That's the sweet spot of the generous present moment.
So, you got to labor
to get that person beyond the emotions that keep them tact or
anchored to the past. And yes, it takes an effort to do that.
But if you keep working with the formula, you'll reach that elegant
moment where there's a liberation of energy. And now your body,
as the unconscious mind, the objective mind, is not believing
it's living in the same past experience 24 hours a day, because you're
liberating the body from that emotional state.
So, you ask the person: Why are you so unhappy?
Why are you so frustrated?
Why are you so resentful? The moment
you ask that, their brain is going to associate that emotion to a past
event, to a memory. To a memory.
That's because they have nothing to look forward to in the future.
So, if you're not being defined by a vision of the future, it just
means to me that you're more in love with your past
then you are with a future!
So, how do you teach people to believe in a future that they can't see
or experience with our senses yet,
but they've thought about enough times in their mind that their brain
has literally changed to look like the event has already occurred?
The latest research in neuroscience says that's absolutely possible.
We know that.
And how do you teach a person to select a new possibility in their future?
And begin to emotionally embrace that future before it's made manifest?
to such a degree that their body, as their
unconscious mind, is believing
it's living in that future a reality in the present moment. And they're
signaling new genes in new ways ahead of the environment. Now, to their body begins
to change to look like the event has already occurred.
We've proven that that's possible!
The stronger the emotion you feel from some condition in your life,
the more altered you feel inside of you, the more you narrow your focus
on cause. And the brain freezes an image and takes a snapshot. And that
memory now is embossed in the brain.
It's branded in there.
So then, people think neurologically within the circuits of those past
experiences and they feel chemically within the boundaries of those emotions.
And the stronger the betrayal, the stronger the trauma, the more
the body's living in the past, right?
So then, how do you reverse that?
So now, if you truly got passionate about a future, we've all done this,
you get a wild idea in your mind and you start holding on to
that vision and you're preoccupied with it,
all of a sudden, the thought in your mind becomes the experience.
And you start feeling the energy of the future!
Now, the stronger, the emotion you feel from that vision, the more
you going to pay attention to the picture in your mind, and now you're
remembering your future!
So, it requires a coherent brain.
And we now know that there's a formula for that, and we've got
beautiful research to show that people can do it.
They just have to practice. And it requires a coherent heart, because
resentment, frustration, impatience creates a very incoherent heart.
And when that heart becomes incoherent, you stop trusting yourself.
There's no energy.
You stop trusting in your future.
So then, if there's physical evidence in your brain and body, physical
evidence to look like the event has already occurred, it's quite possible
you'll be thinking neurologically within the circuits of your future,
and you'll begin to feel chemically within the boundaries of that
emotion of your future! And how you think and how you feel is your
state of being. And now your state of being is living in the future
instead of the past.
Now, the moment you disconnect from the emotion of your future, because
of traffic, or some co-worker, or your ex, or whatever people come up with,
now you're back to the energy of your past! And now you're going
to start looking for it,
analyzing, why hasn't it happened?
Well, if you're feeling the emotion of your future, why would you look for it?
Because you would feel like it already happened.
And that is the place where the magic happens.
So then, you can't just do this, get up and then return back to your
old state of being, you got to maintain that modified state. How do you maintain it?
We all take blows in our lives and we all react emotionally, but the
question is - how long are you going to react?
So then, if you can't mediate and
your emotional reactions, and those emotions linger for days,
years for some people - mood. And then months - temperament.
Years - personality trait.
So then, the person's personality is literally based on the past, but
they don't know that because they're doing it over and over again.
It becomes a subconscious program.
So now, if it requires a coherent brain in a coherent heart, then we
have to train people how to self-regulate.
So, we've done thousands
and thousands of measurements, we partner with the Heart-Math Institute to
teach people how to create and sustain heart coherence.
It just requires getting still, closing your eyes, putting your
attention on your heart, changing your breath so that you move into
the present moment.
And when you slow your breathing down, you slow your brain waves down,
When you slow your brain waves down,
now you're accessing your autonomic nervous system.
So then, you train a person how to open their heart and feel an
elevated emotion, and it takes
a little practice. And just like a flower that takes time to bloom,
it takes a little bit of time. But if you work and trading
the resentment, the frustration or the impatience for gratitude,
appreciation and thankfulness,
and you keep add it,
there will come a moment where that system switches on! And now, you're
feeling grateful for no reason at all, right?
That's not a bad thing. Because gratitude, the emotional
signature of gratitude means something's happening to you.
Something has happened to you.
You're receiving something, or you just received something.
So your body then, when you're feeling gratitude, is in the perfect
state of receiving!
So then that means then, you'll accept, believe and surrender to the
thoughts equal to the emotional state of gratitude!
If you're living and resentment, you're living in fear, you're living
in impatience,
you could say: I'm healthy,
I'm healthy,
I am healthy, I'm wealthy, I'md wealthy, all you want.
And that thought's going to stop right at the brainstem and never make
its way to the body.
Because why?
Because you're feeling resentment and that thought isn't...
That thought is not consistent with the emotion of resentment. Resentment
has a different set of thoughts, right?
In other words,
once you start opening your heart,
it begins to move into coherence.
It begins to produce a measurable
magnetic field up to 3 meters wide.
Now, that's frequency.
That's energy. And all that energy, that frequency, carries information.
Carries an intent.
So then, when you're feeling gratitude and your heart is open, you're
broadcasting energy into the field.
A frequency! You lay the intent of the thought of your
health or your wealth, that frequency
can carry the thought of your wealth, it can carry the thought of
your health! If you're suffering, you can't... Suffering
does not carry, that energy
does not carry the thought of your wealth!
It carries a different set of thoughts.
So then, we're teaching people how to self-regulate.
Because if you're going to believe in that future that you're
imagining with all of your heart, it better be open and activated!
And you better know how to self-regulate.
And you have to know, the moment you disconnect from the energy of
your future because of
some circumstance in your life, and you lose that feeling,
if you're practicing it on a daily basis with your eyes closed, then
the next level is to be able to open your eyes and do it, right in the
moment and be able to self-regulate. And change the frustration from
some experience in your life, back to the energy of your future.
Now, that requires great awareness and great effort.
But if you have a community of people that are practicing this on a
daily basis and they're connected to their future, because that's where
their mind is,
they begin to want the future more than the emotion out of the past!
So, we've done enough measurements
now to know that we can teach people how to do that. And we have
evidence that people can sustain it for 45 minutes to an hour.
It's a skill now. They know that they know how to do it!
So now they have brain coherence and heart coherence.
Well, once the heart begins to become orderly and coherent, it acts as
an amplifier, and it drives the energy to the brain.
So now, the brain is getting more energy, once the heart is open.
And you're thinking different set of thoughts, and those thoughts
produce different chemicals for you to feel more of that. And here
comes nitric oxide from oxytocin.
And all of a sudden, your heart literally starts to swell.
It literally begins to open up, and there's more energy going there.
Now you're coming
from a different level of mind.
So then, what about, what happens to your immune system when you do that?
Well turns out,
we've done an experiment, just 10 minutes a day, 3 times a day
with 120 people,
trading resentment, frustration, fear for gratitude, appreciation and
thankfulness, measuring their immune response, the chemical
immunoglobulin A,
your primary defense against bacteria and viruses, the best flu shot
you'll ever get lives innately within you! Turns out,
when you're frustrated, when you're impatient, when you're fearful,
your immune system dials down because you're in an emergency.
All your energy is going for some threat in your
outer world.
There's no energy in your inner world for growth and repair. But how
do you turn that around?
So then, as people begin to open their heart,
can that chemical begin to elevate? 4 days, 50% change in
the 120 people.
Their IGA levels went up 50% in 4 days.
Your body's immune system
is now up-regulating genes that are making proteins and
immunoglobulins and antibodies that you don't need a flu shot.
In other words,
your inner state is greater than your outer world!
So then, just by doing that, we now know
that your immune system is going to get stronger! By the same means,
take 120 people or 50 people and measure 7.500 gene regulations.
Okay, in 4 days - 2 genes that suppress cancer growth and tumors are
activated and upregulated, the genes that stimulate stem cells to go
to damaged tissues and repair them - upregulated.
The gene for oxidative balance is upregulated.
Anti-cancer, anti-aging, anti heart disease, anti-stroke,
anti neuro-degenerative, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial... Just, the
body's naturally doing this.
The gene for neurogenesis, the growth of new neurons and response the novel experiences and learning.
This is 4 days.
The gene switches on. The gene for more balance in the pituitary and
the pancreas, the gene for the microtubules of the cells,
those little fibers that respond to energy and frequency.
So in 4 days, we now know that you can change your genetic destiny!
If you just practice the inner work! We have research to show that 60
days of meditation,
5 days a week will lengthen your life. The telomeres, that little shoe
strings on the end of your DNA get longer.
That means your biological age is changing.
So, we have the evidence now to show people what's possible.
We have brain scans that are so outside of normal, that when
neuroscientist see them, they're blown away.
Because the amount of energy
that's in the brain
during this transcendental moment is hundreds of times outside of normal.
I mean you can't make your brain do that.
Something is happening to you! And that person's having a
transcendental moment.
And we now know that we can predict it, and we now know that
we can induce it.
