Living Your Best Life With 3 Brains Theory: Head, Heart, And Gut - Shape Your Future

In this solo talk, Christoffel Sneijders reflects on his experience at a Joe Dispenza advanced workshop and connects Dispenza’s "You’re the Placebo" concept to his own clinical hypnotherapy and NLP practice. He promotes the mantra “live your future as it’s happening right now,” arguing that true change comes from becoming the desired state rather than merely acting as if. Sneijders identifies three internal resistance blocks that prevent lasting transformation: the head (conscious rational mind), the heart (emotional/fearful love), and the gut (instinctual survival system). He explains how each block can sabotage attempts to adopt new beliefs and behaviors, using examples like weight loss, depression, anxiety, and health recovery. The talk serves as a teaser for a deeper future discussion on how these three “brains” interact and how to overcome them to actualize one’s future self.
