How To Unlock Your Mind & Master Your Life - Dr Joe Dispenza - #741

Hello, friends, welcome back to the show. My guest today is Dr. Joe Dispenza. He's a researcher and an author, specializing in neuroscience and known for his work on neuroplasticity and epigenetics. If your thoughts can make you sick, the obvious question is whether your thoughts can make you well, just how instrumental are the things we think to the way our mind and body operate, and how much of this is crossing over from experimental subculture into legitimate science. Expect to learn how to make genuine change in your life, why we get addicted to negative thoughts, the wild new studies showing the effects of Joe's work, how to get more comfortable facing the unknown, the many ways our memories lie to us, how to stop being a victim of life, the most powerful techniques you can use to self-regulate, and much more. So many wild insights coming out of Joe's work, and very interesting to hear him start to validate these with genuine legitimate science and research. I think that the next few years, you can expect to see an awful lot more of this stuff. And I'm pretty fascinated. I'm very interested and intrigued to see just how much the world of existing science start to accept the ideas and modalities that Joe's using here. Don't forget that you might be listening, but not subscribed. And that means you will miss episodes when they go up. And the next few months have got some huge, huge guests, which you definitely do not want to miss. So, go to Apple Podcasts or Spotify or wherever else you are listening and press the follow button. It does support the show and it means you won't miss episodes when they go up. And it makes me very happy. So go and do it, please. I thank you. But now, ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Dr. Joe Dispenza.
How do you describe what you do?

I think we teach people the neuroscience and the biology of change. And the principle is just really simple. If you change, your life changes. And nothing changes in our life until we change. So one of the things that people come up against is, why is it so hard to change? So we've kind of come down through a lot of research, a simple formula to help people to make transformations first in themselves and then their lives. And so we give people knowledge and information and we use science as that language to meet information. And we combine quantum physics with neuroscience and neuroendocrinology and psychoneuroimmunology and epigenetics and electromagnetism and help people understand information that's philosophical, that's theoretical. And when you learn information, you make new connections in your brain. And that's what learning is. But if you don't review it and if you don't repeat it, you don't think about it, those circuits prune apart within the hours or days. So we run these courses, these events that are typically seven days where it's fully immersing yourself in this process of transformation. Give people the information. It's philosophical, it's theoretical. Have them understand that they have to be present with it. But now turn to someone and teach it back to them, what you've learned, the nerve cells that fire together, wire together. So then in time, you begin to install the neurological hardware in your brain in preparation for the experience. And the more you understand what you're doing, the more you understand why you're doing it, the how gets easier, because you can assign meaning to the task and get a greater outcome. If you can't explain it, it's not wired in your brain, right? So it's so much easier to forget the information than to remember it and just takes repetition and attention to get the circuitry in place. And once you understand the what and the why, we set up the conditions and the environment to give people the proper instruction. And when you apply it, when you personalize it, when you demonstrate it, when you initiate that knowledge, when you get your behaviors to match your intentions and you get your actions equal to your thoughts, you get your mind and body working together, you have an experience. Now, experience really enriches circuitry in the brain. And when those neurons organize into networks even further, the brain makes a chemical and that's called a feeling or an emotion.
So now when you feel abundant, when you feel successful, you feel unlimited, you feel whole, the experience is teaching the body chemically to understand what the mind has intellectually understood. So now the information is not in the brain anymore. The information is now in the body. And the person is embodying the truth of that philosophy, right? And somehow there's biological changes that take place as a result of it. The question is, okay, if you've done it once, you should be able to repeat the experience. And so if people go through a seven-day immersion and they keep repeating the experience, they begin to neurochemically condition their mind and body to begin to work together. And when you've done something so many times that your body now knows how to do it better than your conscious mind, now it's innate in you. You've become the knowledge, right? It's a subconscious program, it's who you are. So we teach people to go from that kind of philosophical, theoretical knowledge to the application, to initiate it, to ultimately get wise about why they're doing it. And so we study the neuroscience and biology and we work with University of California San Diego and we publish papers and we do extensive research really to demystify the process.
