Added: Aug 14, 2023
In this podcast episode, Dr. Joe Dispenza discusses the power of our thoughts and their impact on our health and well-being. He highlights the alarming statistic that a significant percentage of people seek healthcare due to psychological or emotional stress. Dr. Dispenza believes that many individuals become addicted to negative patterns and relationships because they need them to feel something, but research shows that dwelling on negative emotions worsens brain function.Dr. Dispenza argues that a large portion of the stories people tell themselves are not even true, as they are reliving a miserable life they never actually had. This prevents them from making positive changes. However, he also believes that change is possible. He asserts that 95 percent of who we are by the age of 35 is programmed, but breaking the habit of the old self and reinventing a new self is the key to change. To change, Dr. Dispenza explains that we need to become conscious of our unconscious thoughts and behaviors and make a deliberate effort to think, act, and feel differently. He describes the process of change as unlearning and relearning. By consciously repeating new thoughts, behaviors, and emotions, we can rewire our brain and create new habits. Beliefs also play a crucial role in behavior change. Dr. Dispenza explains that beliefs are thoughts that we repeat until they become hardwired in our brain. Many people have limiting beliefs that hold them back from making positive changes. He encourages individuals to challenge their beliefs and replace them with empowering thoughts. Being intentional and conscious in our thoughts, actions, and emotions is essential, according to Dr. Dispenza. He suggests having a clear vision of our future and aligning our thoughts, actions, and emotions with that vision. By doing so, we can create new experiences and change our biology. Dr. Dispenza shares stories of individuals who have experienced profound transformations in their health and well-being. These include people who have reversed stage four cancers, healed from chronic diseases, and regained mobility. He believes that these transformations are possible when individuals believe in themselves and their ability to change. Dr. Dispenza also addresses common myths about behavior change. He challenges the belief that thoughts don't matter and explains that every thought we have creates a chemical reaction in our body. He also dispels the myth that behavior patterns cannot be changed, citing examples of individuals who have overcome traumatic experiences and transformed their lives. He explains that when we are under stress, obsessing, overthinking, or overanalyzing, our brainwaves become highly aroused, leading to a state of high beta brainwave patterns. However, he suggests that by shifting our focus from narrow and material things to a broader awareness of space and nothingness, we can slow down our brainwaves and enter a state of alpha brainwave patterns. Dr. Dispenza emphasizes the importance of divergent focus, which involves sensing and opening our awareness to space rather than analyzing and thinking. This practice helps synchronize different compartments of the brain and promotes a more holistic and coherent state of functioning. He explains that when the brain functions as a unified network, it leads to a clearer intention and a greater sense of order, which can alleviate anxiety, depression, and other mental health issues. The podcast then delves into Dr. Dispenza's personal experiences and challenges as a high achiever running multiple businesses and projects. He acknowledges the sacrifices and obligations that come with his mission-driven work but also highlights the importance of having an amazing team and being the example of everything he teaches. He finds inspiration in the transformative stories of individuals and believes that the work should be about celebrating their journeys rather than focusing on himself. The conversation shifts to the topic of technology and its role in Dr. Dispenza's life. He admits that technology can be overwhelming but considers it a necessary part of his mission. He expresses his passion for research and the potential impact it can have on changing the conversation in healthcare and medicine. He shares his belief that meditation and emotional regulation can play a significant role in improving health and well-being. When asked about his definition of happiness, Dr. Dispenza explains that it is about not relying on external factors to make him happy. He emphasizes the importance of self-belief and recognizing our power as creators of our own lives. While he acknowledges that he has challenging days, he strives to remain centered and focused on his mission.
