Write It Down and Watch Your Dreams Unfold | Dr. Joe Dispenza’s Life-Changing Strategy!

Dr. Joe Dispenza outlines six rules for creating a new reality: write down your future and the choices you'll stop making, align your nervous system with the quantum field, emotionally connect to your vision, change your personality to break old patterns, use meditation to shift your body's chemistry, and become the observer of your automatic responses.
Chapters
Write down all the things you were going to do to get to that vision, all the choices you were going to make, all of the experiences or goals you wanted to achieve, and all of the emotions and the joy you would feel. And when you were doing that, you were setting your sights towards that destiny. And then you did something really brilliant. You wrote down the choices you weren't going to make. You became aware of the behaviors you weren't going to demonstrate. You began to review certain experiences you wanted to stay away from, and then you looked at the emotions that would bring you to a lower level, and you begin to separate the old self from the new self. And when you begin to do that and you're observing the old self, it means you're no longer the program. Now you're the consciousness observing the program, and that's when you begin to objectify your subjective self.
Hey, it's Evan Carmichael, and I make these videos because I need it. I need it for me because I don't wake up every day and say, Yes, let's go conquer the world. Now I wake up and, and I need that external motivation to match my internal motivation. When I see somebody who's doing amazing things, it makes me just want to play a bigger game. And so I hope that today's video makes you want to play a bigger game too, because your message matters, and let's get it out to the world. So today, let's learn how to write things down so the universe can bring it to us with Dr. Joe Dispenza. Enjoy.
Let's say you've had some pretty rough experiences in your past, and those experiences caused you to feel sad and unworthy and guilty and judgmental.
And you've gotten so used to feeling guilty and unworthy and judgmental that that just feels normal to you.
And then because you feel kind of victimized, then you blame people and you complain and you make excuses and you feel sorry for yourself, and that's your personality. And all of a sudden you say, "Today I'm not going to do that any longer because that's the old self." And then you start off your day and it goes really well for about 2 hours.
And then all of a sudden, the moment you realize that you're no longer making the same choices as the day before, you are going to feel uncomfortable. It's going to feel unfamiliar. It's going to be uncertain. There's going to be some unpredictability. And we now know that people would rather hold on to their guilt and unworthiness than to step into the unknown, because at least they can feel something. And so the moment you stop making the same choices that you always make, get ready because it's going to be uncomfortable. And that's the moment you're heading towards the new self. And we call it stepping into the river of change.
Rule number 2 is create more balance.
I want you to know that you have within your reach all the machinery to begin to connect to this field of intelligence that we have access to called the unified field. You'll learn how to organize your autonomic nervous system and create more wholeness and balance in your body. You'll be able to understand what it means to get beyond yourself and ultimately create a new future. So think about this: if you spend the majority of your day focusing on matter, focusing on everything in this three-dimensional world that's made of material things, it begs the question, how much of your time and your attention do you put on that unified field? That invisible field of information that exists beyond space and time. And just like when you're unaware of your nose, it doesn't exist, and the moment you become aware of it, it exists, the quantum field is exactly the same way. If you put very little attention on it in your waking day, then it doesn't exist for you. But the moment you begin to become aware of it, the moment you begin to pay attention to it, the moment you begin to stay present with it and to experience it moment after moment— and where you place your attention, as you learned, is is where you place your energy. And where you place your attention causes things to expand. The moment you begin to experience it, not with your senses— you experience this 3-dimensional reality with your senses— but you experience it with your consciousness and with your awareness. The moment you become pure consciousness is the moment you make contact with that unified field. And so we now know the techniques and the tools to get people beyond themselves. And in fact, we know that after thousands and thousands and thousands of brain scans that you're at your absolute best when you get beyond yourself, when you take your attention off your body, when you take your attention off your identity that's connected to people in your life, the things you own, objects you own, places you have to go, and time itself. The moment you become nobody, no one, no thing, nowhere, and no time, that is the moment you become pure consciousness. And that's the moment you begin to connect to that field of possibilities called the unified field or the quantum field. And that field is an invisible field of information that exists beyond this space and time. And independent of the color of your skin, your gender, your diet, your sexual preference, independent of your profession, your class, independent of all those things that create separation, that every human being has access to it. And this course is about not waiting for crisis to begin to create the life you want, but in fact becoming inspired that you are the creator of your life and using the tools and principles to be able to do it. As an example, we had a student who wanted to prove to herself that she could become an abundant person. And I want to remind you, it's not about the wealth that she was interested in. It was who she was becoming in the process. And every single day, she got beyond the thoughts that I can't, it's too hard, I'll never be wealthy, money is bad. She got beyond the habits of living in lack and not being afraid to spend money and taking a chance. She got beyond the emotions of unworthiness and separation and fear. And every single day she kept creating and becoming something else. She parked her car and was heading to a meeting and went to the meeting, and when she came out, she took her ticket and was going to pay for the time that she was there, and all of a sudden $100 bills just started shooting out of the machine. Now, she was so overjoyed because she was correlating that experience of money flowing to her with the experience that she had just had a few days before in her meditation, where she had connected to that field and she felt it flowing through her. And when she saw the money flying out of the machine, $100 bills, and everybody standing around looking at it, It was no longer about the money. It was about the fact that she created it, and she left the money for everybody else to have because that's what abundant people do. And she continued and laughed all the way home and realized that if she could create that, she could create anything. Now, the beauty behind that is that it could happen to you, and many experiences for many of our students are pretty much the same. So The Course is about you connecting to that field. The Course is about you getting beyond yourself. The instructions are for you to begin to create more inner balance so it can be witnessed in your outer world and to literally create a new future.
Rule number 3 is connect to your future dream.
Once again, the signal that you're creating on a daily basis is going to either work in a constructive way or in a destructive way. And as an example, if you're walking around feeling sorry for yourself and suffering and feeling victimized, then you're actually emanating that signal into the field. And what you're saying is, bring me an experience equal to my suffering, but bring it in a way that I least expect, that surprises me and leaves no doubt that I've created this outcome. So in a sense, we're not punished for our sins, we're punished by our sins. And sin is an attitude. So then the opposite is also true. When you teach people how to connect to the energy of a future dream and be defined by a vision of the future instead of the memories of the past, to believe in their future more than they believe in their past, to fall in love with their future more than they fall in love with their past, and be able to combine that clear intention of that future and begin to feel the emotions of that future before it's made manifest. They're broadcasting a whole new signature into the field. Now, the beauty behind that is, is that the longer you're conscious of that energy, the more you're drawing that future to you. Which also means then the moment you get in your car and start getting angry and getting frustrated because you're in traffic, now you just disconnected from the energy of your future, and now you're back to the energy of your past, and those survival emotions exert less effects on the nature of reality. So now you feel like matter trying to change matter. You're separate, and so you force it, you control it, you try harder, you wish, you pray, you hope. I mean, hope is a beggar. We do everything, compete to try to manipulate and make it happen because we have limited resources then. So then when a person's able to sustain or maintain that modified state of mind and being, Then the fun starts to happen because you start seeing those synchronicities. You start seeing those coincidences, those opportunities, those unknowns. Those things start falling out of nowhere because you are connected to that field of information. And not only are you connected to it, but you're also beginning to influence it. So then more and more people are creating now, and less and less people are experiencing the state of being called being a victim. So then if you're a victim, then you would say, "I was angry because of traffic." Well, then I would say to you, "Well, you mean your outer world was controlling how you think and feel. Some circumstance, some person, something in your outer world is actually controlling your feelings and thoughts. That means you're a victim to those circumstances." But when you change the way you think and feel and it starts to produce effects in your outer world, now you start to realize you're the creator of your life. And the moment you start seeing feedback in your life, You're going to pay attention to what you did and you're going to do it again. And now you're going to believe now you're more of the creator of your life and less of the victim of your life.

Go click on it and start building the momentum in your life and your business. I'll see you there. Rule number 4 is change your personality.
Our simple model is that Your personality creates your personal reality.
That's it.
And your personality is made up of how you think, how you act, and how you feel. So the present personality who's listening to this podcast has created the present personal reality called their life, which means then if you want to change your life, you want to create a new personal reality, you're going to have to change your personality. You're going to have to change because nothing changes in your life until you change. So what is the understanding of change? So we've spent over 10 years studying a way to explain what change is, because if you think 60,000 to 70,000 thoughts or however many thoughts in one day, and 90% of those thoughts are the same thoughts as the day before, you're in trouble, because the same thoughts will lead to the same choices, the same choices will lead to the same behaviors, the same behaviors create the same experiences, And the same experiences produce those very same emotions, and those same emotions influence our same thoughts and our biology, our neurocircuitry, our neurochemistry, our hormones, our gene expression, our immune— everything stays the same because we're the same. So it has traditionally taken crisis or trauma or loss for someone to make up their mind to change. So the moment we decide to change, okay, I want to create a new personal reality, a new life, I gotta change my personality. Well, this concept called metacognition, we have forebrain function, you know, the seat of our conscience, our frontal lobe, allows us to think about what we're thinking about, to notice how we're behaving, and to become aware of how we're feeling. And the repetition of thinking, acting, and feeling in the same way causes our brain to become hardwired into very specific neural patterns, right? So that, that firing and wiring over time causes us to be— happens so automatically that we're unconscious of our conscious self. So the moment we become conscious of those thoughts, the moment we become aware of those behaviors, the moment we notice those feelings, we're no longer the program. In fact, we're the consciousness observing the program, and that's the first step to change. So when you decide and become so conscious— the word meditation, I looked it up, The symbol means to become familiar with. That's all it means. It means familiarization. So if you become so familiar with, I can't, it's too hard, I'll never change, no one loves me, you become aware that you are blaming, complaining all day long and talking trash about somebody. You notice all of a sudden that this feeling that you're feeling every single day that you're so accustomed to is really guilt or shame or unworthiness. The moment you're conscious of what, what you're experiencing— you know, in other words, when you're inside the jar, you can't read the label, right? So you gotta become conscious of that unconscious stuff. You gotta see yourself through the eyes of someone else. The tragedy that causes you to no longer feel like you any longer actually causes you to look at you from the eyes of someone else. You can see yourself more clearly because you're not feeling like you any longer. That's the That's the big moment of change. So then when a person really can become so conscious of their unconscious self that they don't go unconscious again— or let me say it another way: how many times do we have to forget until we stop forgetting and start remembering? That's the moment of change.
Rule number 5 is recondition your body.
How do you create the life you want, and how do you begin to have, you know, your subjective mind produce effects in your objective world? Now, the Quantum model says that the moment you begin to look for an electron— electron, you know, is in a field of probabilities or possibilities— and the observer comes along and the observer looks, and all of a sudden, boom, the electron appears. It collapses from a wave of possibilities into an event called collapsing the wave function. That's a quantum event. So mind and matter are somehow correlated. So the question is, can you observe your life the way you want and cause infinite patterns of energy to collapse into new information called the new experience in your life or a new quantum event. So for 2 years, we taught the workshops around the world, and guess what happened? Not a lot. We didn't see a lot of change. Every now and then, we see people's lives were getting better here and there. But what I was after was— because when I wrote "What the Bleep?" I understood The Science of Changing Your Mind. The process of change requires unlearning and relearning. It requires breaking the habit of your old self and then reinventing a new self. It's what we say in neuroscience, pruning synaptic connections and sprouting new connections, unmemorizing emotions that are stored in your body and then reconditioning your body to a new mind and to a new emotion, to deprogram, to reprogram, to lose your mind and create a new one. To move your energy out of the past and then use that energy to drive you to a new future. And so I saw what people did when they had spontaneous remissions. I saw 4 things that they had in common. All of them believed that there was a spiritual aspect to them, something greater that was giving them life that they wanted to connect to. They wanted to give that intelligence a plan, a template, a design, and then surrender it and allow it to do it for them. And so I began to realize that many, many people in the world were beginning to embrace this concept of quantum physics and spirituality. The second thing they had in common is they all understood it was their mismanagement of their life that created their disease. It was their 20 years of hatred, their 30 years of bitterness, their 10 years of guilt, their 45 years of anger. And those emotions they had memorized, and those emotions were driving certain thoughts, and those thoughts were reaffirming certain emotions. And how you think and how you feel creates a state of being. Thoughts are the language of the brain, feelings are the language of the body, and how you think and how you feel creates a state of being. But the redundancy of that cycle of thinking and feeling over time conditions your body to memorize that emotional state as well as the conscious mind. The moment the body knows better than the mind, that's called a habit. A habit is when your body is your mind. And 95% of who we are by the time we're 35 years old— this is science— is a set of memorized behaviors, emotional reactions, beliefs, and perceptions that function like an unconscious, subconscious, automatic program. So when people go to change, they're using 5% of their conscious mind to work against 95% of what they've memorized. And they would think positively all they wanted, but they've been memorizing negativity for the last 25 years. Or they create their dream board, you know, with their SUV and their hairstyle and kid in the back and fingernails and house and— but they felt unworthy. It's mind and body in opposition. And so I realized that the very emotions of anger and aggression and hostility and hatred and frustration and judgment and fear and anxiety and hopelessness and powerlessness and depression and insecurity are all driven by the hormones of stress.
And rule number 6, the last one before some very special bonus clips, is be the mind.
We found out that when people react emotionally with anger, uh, with antagonism, there's an arousal that takes place because you're turning on the sympathetic nervous system. And the sympathetic nervous system is a primitive system saying, Alex, whatever that is, is a threat to you. And if there's a threat, a good way to deal with the threat is to get aggressive.
That's primitive.
It's animal.
It's very animal.
Some people will say, oh my God, there's my ex. And instead of getting angry, they run. They flee. They're in fear. They're like, the fear is I'm better just getting away. They— their fear causes them to run. Uh, so when people feel fear, when they feel anger, when they feel pain, those are the primary stimulators that switch on that sympathetic nervous system. And they used to say that it's automatic, like it's automatic, it happens automatically, that's part of the autonomic nervous system, and you really don't have any control of it. Turns out That's absolutely not the truth. So first thing is learning how to shorten your response to the emotional reaction. So if you have an event that happens to your life, in your life, and I say, Alex, why are you so mad today? And you say, oh, it's because of this situation and this person, this happened this way. And I would say, oh my gosh, do you mean that that person or that circumstance is controlling the way you feel and the way you think. Now, anything that's controlling the way we feel and the way we think makes us victims, whatever that is. Now, that's okay, but if you keep that emotional reaction going on for hours or days, and I say to you, Alex, It's 5 days, what's up? And you say to me, I'm upset from something that happened to me 5 days ago. I'd say you have a mood, you're in a mood. Now, some people keep that same emotional reaction going on for weeks or months. And then I would say, well, Alex has an angry temperament. It becomes a temperament. If we keep it going for, now this is true, people keep this going for years on end. If it goes on for years, now it's a personality trait. So here's the weird part about it. You ask that person who's been angry for years why they're angry, and they'll recall an event from 10 years ago or a series of events from 10 years ago. And the research— yeah, and the research on the memory says that 50% of that story isn't even the truth. They can't even remember the truth. They embellish the story and make it sound worse than it really was to excuse themselves from changing. Now, what we tell people is forget the event. Doesn't matter. The details of the event doesn't— what matters is learning how to overcome the emotion. So when you're sitting in a meditation And all of a sudden, out of nowhere, your body starts getting aroused and it starts getting frustrated and it starts getting angry. And people say, I'm doing my meditation wrong. You know what I say to them?
No, no, no, no.
You're doing it right. That has to come up. So then, so when the anger and the frustration comes up and a person's in a meditation, they have one of two choices: to quit, which is what they've always done. But if you're sitting with 1,500 people and no one else is quitting, you're not going to quit. And if I teach you how to lower the volume to that emotion and I teach you a way to change that, every time you settle the body back down into the present moment and lower the volume to that anger, that's a victory because you're telling the body it's no longer the mind, that you're the mind. Now it'll go, well, yeah, well, what about this circumstance? And what about that? And it'll get aroused again. And then you notice it. And instead of turning on the TV or getting on your cell phone or getting on the social media, you lower the volume again. Now, this is the work. It turns out every time you do that, that victory, you're telling the body that it's no longer the mind, that you're the mind. And then all of a sudden it wants to get up and go. It's busy, it's got things to do, and it's— and you become aware that it wants to do that and you bring it back to the present moment. You're executing a will that's greater than the program. Now, turns out if you do this enough times, sooner or later the body surrenders. Sooner or later the body acquiesces. It says, I'm no longer the mind. Alex is the mind. And when that occurs, there's a liberation of energy. That anger, that frustration literally turns into energy. It's released into the field as information. Now you return back into your life and you see the same person or the same circumstance. Your response to them is going to be much less.
Why?
Because you took care of it within you. You're not trying to fix it out there, just that your response is different. So now if you're no longer responding to the environment and your response to the environment isn't weakening the organism because stress depletes energy, energy, then you're less susceptible to the environment. And we found out that when people do this, their immune system gets so robust that you can take viruses like SARS-CoV-2 virus and subject that virus to the plasma of advanced meditators. And there's a resistance to the virus, the virus doesn't enter the cell. Why? Because there's energy for— there's energy to be able to combat it. So, so It's because the person is not reacting. So then shortening your response to that condition is a victory, and it takes practice. And so then how many times do we have to forget and go unconscious and be angry till we decide to no longer forget and keep remembering and stay conscious? That's change right there. So We use meditation as a model to remind ourselves who we're going to be when we open our eyes and to remind ourselves who we're no longer going to be when we open our eyes and stay so conscious of it that we don't go unconscious in our waking day. And if we do it properly, then there's feedback in our life that shows us that you've changed. And remember, nothing changes in your life until you change.
And I hear this from so many people: Gabby, I'm doing it all. I'm meditating, I'm praying, I'm setting intentions, creating vision boards, but I'm not manifesting. One reason you're not manifesting is because you don't believe in what you're trying to manifest. When you believe it, you'll receive it. But if you don't believe it, then you're just trying, pushing, controlling, trying to make something happen that isn't fully ingrained in your presence, in your being, in your energy. And so you have to do your part to get into the belief system of knowing that this is indeed something you are worthy of. So how do you get into that grounded belief system? Create a vision statement. a statement that claims that your desire is on the way, that you are worthy of what it is that you desire. Ground yourself in that statement. Focus on it. And instead of focusing on the outcome, focus on the feeling of what it is to believe and know that you are worthy of your desire. If you're wanting to attract a romantic partner into your life, a vision statement could sound like: I believe I'm worthy of the love that I desire. Or, I believe that I am ready to receive that romantic relationship in the perfect time and order. Say that vision statement daily for at least 40 days. Get yourself grounded in the belief. You have to believe it to receive it. The next reason you're not manifesting is because you're trying too hard. I'm sorry to say it, but it's true. The more you push, the more you control, the more you try, the more you affirm, the more you vision board, the more, the more, the more, the less you receive. If you're pushing and you're controlling and you're trying to make something happen, you are completely out of alignment with the Universe. You're not aligned with that freedom, that presence of love, the art of allowing rather than doing, forcing, making happen. Yeah, we have to show up for our life, but we can't force our dreams to become our reality. So the key here is to let go. So here's your message: the secret to manifesting is to forget what you think you need. Let it go. How do you let it go? With this intention: thank you, Universe, for guiding me to what is of the highest good for all. When you make it about the highest good and not about what you think you need, then the universe can truly show up for you. You can relax and allow even more than you could imagine to enter into your life. And here's another reason that you're not manifesting. This is going to be tough for you to hear because you're not vibrating at the right frequency.
What, Gabby?
What do you mean? Well, what I mean is that you're leaning into the negative, you're judging a lot, you're focusing on scary that make you so anxious and you just keep focusing on them and dwelling on them. You're obsessed with worrying, you love to overthink things. Look, I understand that behavior more than anyone could imagine. I'm a recovering worrier, I'm a recovering anxious person. I've been there, I understand that. But when we are not in that vibration that's relaxed, released, at ease, present, We're actually blocking our manifestations because that low vibe energy is blocking our high vibe attracting power. So, what do you do? Focus on the good stuff. Lean into the positive. Look for solutions rather than problems. Stop yourself when you notice that you're being judgmental or gossipy. Hang out with people that make you feel good. Do things that make you feel good. Lean towards joy, and you will be led. When you dwell in that energy of joy, the Universe will deliver. So, if you're not attracting what you desire, just relax. It's all good. Focus on these methods, notice when you're out of alignment, and come back to this video, practice one of these methods, use these tools, ground yourself back into alignment, believe it to receive it, feel good, and it will come to you naturally. We have the power within us to attract what we desire when we allow our internal condition to reflect what we want to attract on the outside. So make that your highest priority.
See this line? That's called the terror barrier. Yeah, jumping at you, isn't it? And on the other side of the terror barrier is something we call freedom. And you know, Very few people get through that terror barrier. It's rather sad. Freedom is available to everyone. There isn't anyone that cannot live the way they want to live. See? Why don't they? Why don't they? They don't know, and they don't even know they don't know. Now I'm going to show you why people experience buyer's remorse when they buy something they really want, And then they back away, or they go to move and they don't. They go to change jobs and they don't. They go to move to another city and they don't.
Why?
Fear causes them to stay where they are. There's the individual. The X represents the unknown factor, the paradigm. Now there's a power flowing into this individual's mind, and they can make anything out of it they want. Remember we said we had the ability to choose? What do they choose? They choose thoughts that are in harmony with the paradigm. Now here's an important point: the paradigm controls the vibration of this thing we call our body. Our body is a molecular instrument. That's really what it is. It's a mass of molecules and a very high speed of vibration. The vibration that the body's in on a conscious level we call feeling. When a person says they feel this way or they feel that way, what they're really doing is describing the vibration they're in. Now, they choose thoughts that harmonize with the vibration they're in so they feel comfortable. They may not like the results, but they're comfortable. Now let's move ahead. Let's take a look here. Those people are getting X-type results and they don't like it. Do you know what the problem with them? They're in bondage. These people are locked up. You know, paradigm is like keeping a person in a prison, only there's no locks on the door. They can open the prison and walk out into freedom anytime they want, and they don't. They keep getting the same results over and over and over again. They're in bondage. Now let's go ahead. Here's the same person, X-type conditioning, X-type vibration. The power is flowing into them, and for some strange reason, from left field, ba-boom, in comes a Y-type idea. What is a Y-type idea? The Y-type idea represents anything that you might want to do that you're not doing. It might be move to another city, change jobs, sell the house, buy the farm, whatever it may be, ask the little girl for the date. Ask the guy to go to lunch. Go make the sale. Buy what you want. Go where you want to go. That's the why idea. But as long as the why idea is just in the conscious mind, it's just going to be an intellectual exercise. It's never going to happen. So how do we make it happen? Well, that's when everything changes. Goes haywire. Here we are here, same person, okay, the power flows in, and what do they do? They got the Y-type idea. Now, for some strange reason, they know that they've got to get emotionally involved if they're going to act on that idea. They don't understand what's going to happen, but clearly understand this: your central nervous system is the most complex electrical system in the universe. The central nervous system is mind-boggling. It would make the electrical system in a supercomputer look like a toy. Now, the second you take the idea from your intellect and impress it upon the subject of mind, that's when all hell breaks loose, because the body moves in to an XY vibration. It's not in the X vibration, not the one that we're comfortable with. May not like the results, but we're comfortable. No, on a conscious level, everything's going crazy. On a conscious level, we experience doubt. The doubt turns into an emotion called fear, and that fear is expressed through the body as anxiety. See, that person is getting emotionally involved to move ahead. Do you know what happens? They hit that terror barrier and they bounce off it and right back into bondage, and they're so relieved to get back there. They're back where they're comfortable. They've canceled the sale. They've decided not to move. They're going to stay in the job that they don't like. At least they're comfortable. Now that's not a very good way to live. And you know something? That's something everybody experiences if they're going to grow. You're going to hit that terror barrier. See, the terror barrier is going beyond where you're at. Going to a new level. I'm going to tell you something. When I set a goal, if it doesn't scare and excite me at the same time, I know I'm going in the wrong direction. Now, I also understand that my paradigm is going to try and get me to bounce back to where I was. It doesn't want me to move ahead. I don't want to live there. I lived there for the first 26 years of my life. And for the last 50, I've had a phenomenal life, and it just keeps getting better, and I want you to do the same thing. Understand what I've just said. I'm going to back this up. They got emotionally involved in the why idea that moved their body into a different vibration. On a conscious level, they're experiencing some crazy stuff. They start to doubt their ability, will never be able to pay for it. They experience fear. The fear expresses itself as anxiety. And bang! You bounce off that terror barrier and you're right back. Oh, I might not be earning much here, but I know what it is. I would love to move there, but I'm comfortable here. I think I'll just stay here. These people are acting like they have a contract to live forever, and they don't. Do you know what to do? Say, I'm going to get rid of all that. I understand it's there, but I don't want any part of it, and I'm going to go crashing right through that terror barrier. Now, does that get rid of the X energy? No, the X energy is still there, you see, but at least you're over into freedom. You made the move, you did it, and if you continue to feed the right information into your mind, keep feeding that Y idea, keep getting emotionally involved in the Y idea, you're there, you're on the road. Keep doing that, you're going to find that the paradigm is going to change and it'll just all go away. And you know where you're living? In freedom. You're living where you want to live. Buyer's remorse is when you cancel a sale. Buyer's remorse is when you stop just before you buy what you really want, before you go for the thing that's going to change your life and you know it. It's not moving to the other city. It's not starting the business of your dreams. It's not stepping out and betting on yourself. That's a terror barrier that's causing that. And if you don't learn to go through the terror barrier, I'm going to tell you something, you're going to stay right where you are for the rest of your days. That's not a good place to be. What did Joseph Campbell say? So true. The cave you fear to enter holds the treasure you seek.
What you believe about yourself is the only thing that matters. At the end of the day, no matter how much outside affirmations you get or other people telling you that you're amazing, if you don't believe in your heart that you are amazing, it won't— none of that will last. Like, have you ever gone to an event or you ever made a video or created something, or you're hanging out with a friend and they tell you how amazing you are And that feels good, right? Like the external affirmations and validation feels great, but then it fades. That stuff doesn't last. You don't have somebody being a cheerleader for you every day, showing up in your bedroom saying, "Hooray, go do this, you're amazing," right? We don't have that. You have to be that for yourself. If you're constantly only getting your value as a human being from other people when they tell you that you're amazing, you're never going to love your life. You're never going to love yourself. It has to come from you. It has to come from you telling yourself and you believing that you are amazing. Well, okay, so that's, that's a lot of words. How do you actually go off and do it? I think for me, it's— this is why I believe that lack of belief is the world's number one problem. You know, I can go and meet somebody and You can fill them full of belief for a moment, but if they still don't believe in themselves, then they're going home back to a life that they had before because they don't believe in themselves enough. And so you have to design habits and routines and systems and schedules to slowly shift your belief in yourself forward every single day. And a good chunk of that is what you say about yourself. When you look at yourself in the mirror, what do you say? When you think about yourself, what do you say? A lot of, a lot of the stuff that we say about ourselves, we wouldn't, we wouldn't say to our worst enemies. It's rough. I actually think it's great to be your own worst critic. I think it's great. I think, honestly, I think for a lot of people, um, we're not hard enough on ourselves. Let me, let me— stick with me for a minute. We're not hard enough enough on ourselves because in order to get to where you want to go, you actually need to push yourself more. The problem is why we can't do it is we don't love ourselves enough. We're not our biggest cheerleader enough. You have to balance those two things. We are very hard on ourselves, but because there's no self-love, we're not cheering ourselves on enough. We're not our biggest cheerleader. You can't handle it. Most people are already at the breaking point, you know, like sitting here in a parking lot, these, you know, those— I guess it's kind of blurry, you can't really see them, but people hate their lives. They're barely hanging on. Most people are barely hanging on. We're barely hanging on to what we're doing. We, we can post all these great things on Instagram or wherever and make it look like we're enjoying our life, but most people are barely hanging on. The people who are judging you for your life and telling you that you suck hate their own lives. They are barely hanging on. So how do we get through it? Well, Yes, we can be harder on ourselves, but we need to balance that with more self-love. You have to remind yourself of why you're great, what you're proud of, what you're grateful for, and it has to be consistent. Otherwise, you'll never get to where you want to go. And when you love yourself more, that actually allows you to be harder on yourself. When you love yourself more and you actually feel it, you can push yourself harder. You can, you can be more demanding of yourself because it's not going to push you over the edge because you're not tying your self-worth to you accomplishing that thing. And when you don't accomplish it, you feel like a loser. It's starting from a place of I'm amazing that allows you to be way harder on yourself. When I go to events, a YouTube event, for example, if I'm talking about anything entrepreneurship or YouTube related, I'm going in thinking I'm kick-ass. And because I feel that, I don't need to say that. Like, a lot of times we feel like we need to say that because it's masking an insecurity, right? It's like those people who You've seen those memes where when people make a little bit of money, they've got all these chains and everything. But then the people who are ultra rich, who have all the money, you look even Jay-Z, like early Jay-Z, you know, he's got all these chains and everything. Now he's like, doesn't care, you know, he's walking around in a t-shirt and some jeans because he doesn't need to front, because he's just so self-confident now that it doesn't matter. Now it's actually expression. Instead of masking an insecurity. Most of us are just masking insecurities instead of actually being self-confident. And so when I'm going to an event, if I'm talking about YouTube, I'm walking in feeling amazing and I don't need to— I don't need to walk around and say, hey, look at me. And it's actually the opposite. I can go up and say, hey, where do I suck? It's my favorite question to ask. Why do I suck? Where do I suck? Can you point it out? If I can find one person to tell me where I suck at something, how my videos suck, my thumbnails suck— I don't believe that they suck, right? I think they're amazing. But because I think they're so amazing, it allows me to go a lot harder on myself. And so people will give their honest opinion and say, hey, here's how I think it could be better. And so I think we need to do that more in our lives. We need to cheer ourselves up more. We need to cheer ourselves on more. So how do we do it? Let me, let me share some practical tips for you to execute. Number 1: music in the morning. Every morning, one of the most important things that I do is I put music on, and it's music that makes me move, makes me dance, makes me There's some songs that if they came on, you would have to, you would have to move, right? Doesn't mean that you're up and like dancing through the whole house going crazy in your underwear first thing in the morning, but something that even if it's just making your head bob. There are songs that if they came on would make your head bob and you'd probably be singing, maybe not out loud, but singing under your breath, humming a tune along, and be intentional with the lyrics. Because if we're singing out lyrics that are negative, that has a lasting impact. But if you're singing out lyrics that are positive, that also has a lasting impact. So be intentional with music that you put on every day. First, start your day with music. It's the fastest way to change your state, to go from feeling low and tired and just, what day is it? What am I doing? I wake up every day like, what day is it? What am I doing today? It's— but I demand excellence, and that, that starts with music because I don't have— I don't want to spend a lot of time trying to get into the right state of mind. I can command it whenever I want just by putting on the right song. So be intentional with your music and the lyrics being positive. 2, connect to the work that you're doing and how meaningful it is. So the next thing I'll do is I'll take the dogs out and then I'll go for what I call a believe walk. And it's probably the most important part of my morning routine is I go for a believe walk. And it's a minimum of 20 minutes and it's a maximum of an hour. And I'll go for a walk by myself with 20 pounds on my back. I'll go rucking. I'll walk to Tim Hortons usually, get a coffee. You know, this costs 2 bucks, 2-something. So if I only had, you know, what's the, what's the best money I spend every year? Well, it's the $700 of going on my Believe Walk and getting the coffee every morning. And I'm thinking about what's my intention for the day, and I'm thinking about what I want to accomplish today and the lives that I want to serve and the people I want to help and, and what I'm about to do today. And It's a mini celebration where most of the time we wake up like an accident, right? You wake up, you're probably late for something. You immediately look at your phone. What's on your phone? It's other people's demands for your time, other people's emergencies of what they think you should do with your schedule today, right? That's what's in your phone. All the DMs and the emails and the texts and the missed calls and all— it's all other people's agenda for your time. That is not an intentional life. We wake up like an accident and start falling into what other people want us to do today. That's not what you need to do, and you need to protect your time. So the morning, having a believe walk for me, if you want to go on your own, whether it's 20 minutes or an hour, that's really just a feel thing too. I don't book anything until 10:30 at the earliest in my calendar. Most of my meetings would be 11. First meeting would be 11. Movement Makers and Brandlytics, I'll start at 10:30. And before that, there's nothing officially planned or scheduled so that it gives my morning free to do whatever I want to do. And so if I want to go for an hour-long Believe Walk instead of 20 minutes, I can do that because I'm thinking, because I'm brainstorming, because I'm, I'm going through an idea. I treat that as walking meditation. If you like to meditate, meditate. I mean, it's the same thing. I just find meditation doesn't really help me that much. I like something a little more active, so I go for my belief walks. Do those two things. Put on a playlist, put on music every morning with lyrics that inspire you, and then go for a belief walk, 20 minutes to think about what you want to do today, what you want to accomplish, how you want to spend your time, where you want to be intentional, so you can start living the life that you want to live. Because the only thing that matters is how you feel about yourself. Are you proud of you today? Are you happy with what you've done today? Are you joyful in how you showed up for you today? And yes, we ultimately want to serve and help others, But the only thing that matters is how you feel about yourself. So we can stop relying on external validation and somebody else's words of affirmation for us to feel worthy and flip it to say, I am worthy, I am amazing, I can do great things. And when you can shift into that energy, you will do great things. Could you speak about the neurophysiology of forgiveness?
Sure.
Think about frozen circuits. Frozen circuits are hardwired circuits. The more profound the insult to the person, that is connected to a strong emotion, the more the brain freezes circuitry. The more we think about the experience, the more we fire and wire the circuits in our brain. Yes or no? And the more we remember the event, the more we produce the emotions that are associated with it, and we're conditioning the brain and body further into the past.
Past.
Yes or no?
Yes.
And it—
you keep doing it enough times, it's no longer conscious that you're holding a grudge. It's no longer conscious that you're stuck. It's now you're seeing everybody through the lens of that experience, and everybody's a betrayer. Everybody can't be trusted. Everybody is that same person. You're, you're You're overlaying the memory of your experience into reality. You're not seeing it the way it is. You're seeing that person wearing the mask of the last person. That's the lens that we're perceiving reality. Are you with me still? And so then anything in your life that becomes remotely close to it based on your limited perception triggers the emotion and the network. And you're back in your past and you're acting like you were when it happened. Are you with me still? And so then the person says, "I'm not that person." And you say, "Oh no, I know, I just had this event in my past and I'm sorry." And then it's excusable, but then here it happens again. And there's nothing wrong with this.
We all do it.
It's just how do we overcome it? So then you're sitting and doing the work And you're moving energy up those centers. You're releasing the life force into your brain. You are blessing those centers and taking a scoop and moving it all the way up and releasing it all the way up into the field. You're opening the channel. You're unfolding as nobody, no one, no thing, nowhere, and no time. And the identity and the personality is gone.
Energy energy is going to move.
It's got to.
It's going to follow the path. You're opening your heart. Once it gets to your heart, it's going to make its way all the way up. And when you feel love and compassion, when you feel true, true kindness and care, it's hard to hold a grudge. Are you with me still?
Yes.
So then from a quantum physics point of view, you have that person always in the back of your mind, right? You have the event and the memory rolling around back there because the very thing that you don't want to have happen, you're already preparing for emotionally. Are you with me still? So then from a quantum perspective, you are actually, as a creator of reality, holding yourself hostage because of that person, and you are holding them hostage captured because of that experience, and you have an energetic bond that's connecting you to them, and you're sharing the same energy. And so then you're using each other to reaffirm whatever that energetic agreement is. Are you with me still? So then when you forgive someone, it's because there's been a strong change in your emotional state. Because the emotion is what's keeping you energetically bound to them, or to more than one person. And so then once you start lowering the volume to that emotion and the body starts liberating energy, and you're calling your energy back to you, because the lower the volume of the emotion, the less you're going to pay attention to that person, there comes a moment where there's a snap, there's a release, the energy is broken. And once it's broken, now all of a sudden you free yourself and you free them. And this has happened to me in my life, that people show up 10 years later completely changed and so humble and so asking for forgiveness just because they had transformed. And, and I let them go. So then forgiveness from a quantum perspective and a neurophysiological perspective is just taking your attention off them. That's all it is. And when you start getting happy with yourself and you start feeling those elevated emotions because you're striving for that, you wouldn't trade this for the grudge you were holding because this feels too good. Are you with me still? Now Once that heart opens up and you start having energy in the center and it's releasing 1,300 to 1,400 different chemicals that begin to restore and regenerate the body, the body starts getting a lift of energy. Once it makes it here, now you're gonna see that track sending in energy to the brain. The heart acts as an amplifier to boost the brain. Are you with me still? So then once the energy starts making making its way into the brain once the heart starts to open. We've measured this with our students. They have oxytocin levels rise. Once you start feeling oxytocin, when you feel more love than you feel the grudge, so then you think, "Why would I want to give this up for that person?" That's called forgiveness. You don't have to try to do it. It just is a side effect of your personal transformation. And oxytocin then when it's released, rushes right into the amygdala, the survival center of the brain. And the research is outstanding. And the first thing it does is it fits in the same receptor sites as fear, and it lowers the volume to fear and anxiety. It shuts the lights out for aggression and anger and hostility, and it cools the circuits off for suffering and pain. And the only thing you can feel is a love for life.
And that's when you're free.
Now, The practice of forgiveness, matter to matter, you can do it, but it takes a long time and a lot of work. And then you forgive, and then you're like, "I don't want to forgive him yet." Halfway forgive him. And just never really authentic forgiveness. Do you understand? And you know, there was a woman that came to our work, and She was raped by 4 men when she was a teenager, and it was abusive. And she had severe, severe night terrors, severe anxiety and panic attacks. She had cyclic mood problems. She had been to every single doctor, every single healer, every single single alternative practitioner, nothing changed it. She came to our event in Tacoma, Washington, and she hit that point where she became everybody, everyone, everything, everywhere, every time, every place.
She became the oneness, and that frequency had a message for her, and it said—
and she She was in incredible bliss when this happened. I sent 4 angels disguised as rapists for this moment. And that was the end of her terrors. That was the end of her night. She couldn't have a relationship. She could not live with anybody. She was isolated. One moment, the divine stepped in and gave her the signal. That was carrying a very specific message, and she got the download. Not just the— not just the thought, she got the energy move right through her body, and she saw the whole thing. And that moment is what she was waiting for. That's what the soul was waiting for. Now she's healed, she's healthy, she's happy, and she's on with a new life. She's born again. My mother would love this. She's born again in the same life, reborn in the same life. Didn't pass through a birth canal for it. She just was born again in the same life. She got a new lease in one instant. That energy was carrying a message, and it made its way all the way into the body. And the bliss and the joy and the gratitude and the love that she felt And the message that was carried would've made total sense to her. She's free, one instant. To me, that's true forgiveness. That's the divine having its way with you.
Learning to create our minds the way we want is the basis of creating the world the way we want. There is a wonderful story in the yogic lore. On a certain day, a man took a walk. He went for a long walk. Accidentally, unawares, he walked into paradise. Fortunate, isn't he? He just took a walk and he landed up in paradise. After this long walk, he felt little tired. So he thought, "Oh, I'm tired. I wish I could rest somewhere." He looked around, there, there was a nice tree underneath which there was very cushiony grass, so it was inviting. He went and put his head down there and slept. After a few hours, he woke up well rested and he thought, "Oh, I'm well rested, but I'm feeling hungry." I wish I had something to eat. And he thought about all the nice things that he ever wanted to eat in his life, and instantly all those things appeared in front of him. You need to understand, there the service is like that. Hungry people don't ask questions. Food came and he ate. Mouth became full. Then he thought, "Oh, my stomach is full. I wish I had something to drink." All the nice things that he ever wanted to drink, he thought about it and all of them just appeared in front of him. Drinking people also don't ask questions, so he drank. Now with a little bit of alcohol in him, You know, Charles Darwin told you all of you are monkeys, your tail fell away. Not me, Charles Darwin told you that you are all monkeys and your tail fell away and then you became human. Yes, definitely the tail fell away, but the monkey— in yoga, we always refer to an unestablished mind as markata, which means a monkey. Why we are referring to the mind as a monkey is, what are the qualities of a monkey? One thing about a monkey is, it's unnecessary movement. And another thing about the monkey is, if I say you're monkeying somebody, what does it mean? Imitation. Monkey and imitation have become synonymous. So these These two essential qualities of a monkey are very much the qualities of an unestablished mind. Unnecessary movement, you don't have to learn it from the monkey, you can teach it to the monkey. And imitation is full-time job of the mind. So when these two qualities are on, a mind is referred to as a monkey. So this monkey became active. Active within him. He just looked around, thought, "What the hell is happening here? I asked for food, food came. I asked for drink, drink came. There must be ghosts around here," and ghosts came. "Oh, the ghosts have come, they're going to surround me and torture me," he thought. Immediately the ghosts surrounded him and started torturing him. Then he started screaming in pain and said, "Oh, they're going to kill me," and he died. Just now he said he's a fortunate being. The problem is he was sitting under a Kalpavriksha or a wishing tree. He asked for food, food came. He asked for drink, drink came. He asked for ghosts, ghosts came. He asked for torture, torture came. He asked for death, death happened. Now don't go looking for these Kalpavrukshas in the forest, you can barely find a tree these days. A well-established mind, a mind which is in a state of samyukti is referred to as a Kalpavruksha. If you organize your mind to a certain level of organization, organization, it in turn organizes the whole system. Your body, your emotion, your energies, everything gets organized in that direction. Once all these four dimensions of you, your physical body, your mind, your emotion, and the fundamental life energies are organized in one direction, once you are like this, anything that you wish happens without even lift— lift assisting a little finger actually. It would help to assist it with activity, but even without doing any activity, you can still manifest what you want if you organize these four dimensions in one direction and keep it unwavering in that direction for a certain period of time. Right now, the problem with your mind is every moment it is changing its direction. It is like you want to travel somewhere, somewhere and every two steps if you keep changing your direction, the question of you reaching the destination is very remote unless it happens by chance. So organizing our minds and in turn organizing the whole system and these four basic dimensions of who you are right now in one direction, if you do this, you are a Kalpavruksha yourself. Anything that you wish will happen. But right now, if you look at your lives, everything that you have wished for till now, if it happens, you're finished. Everything and everybody that you have desired for, if all of that lands up in your house today, could you live with that? Once we're empowered like this, it's very important that our physical action, emotional action, physical action, mental action, and energy actions are controlled and properly directed. If it is not so, we become destructive, self-destructive. Right now, that is our problem. The technology which is supposed to make our life beautiful and easy has become the source of all the problem that we are destroying the very basis of our life, which is the planet. So what should have been a boon, we are making a curse out of it. What has brought incredible levels of comfort and convenience to us in the last 100 years or so has also become a threat to our life simply because we are not conscious action, we are in a compulsive state of action. So organizing our minds fundamentally means moving from a compulsive state state of activity to a conscious state of activity. You might have heard of people for whom they asked for something and beyond all expectations it came true to— true for them. Generally this happens to people who are in faith. Now, let's say you want to build a house. If you start thinking, "Oh, I want to build a house, to build a house I need '50 lakhs, but I have only 50 rupees in my pocket, not possible, not possible, not possible.' The moment you say 'not possible,' you are also saying 'I don't want it.' So on one level, you're creating a desire that you want something, on another level, you're saying 'I don't want it.' So in this conflict, it may not happen. Someone who has some faith in a god or in a temple or whatever, who is simple-minded. Faith works only for those people who are simple-minded. Thinking people, people who are too much thinking, for them it never works. A childlike person who has a simple faith in his god or his temple or whatever, he goes to the temple and says, "Shiva, I want a house. I don't know how, you must make it for me." Now in his mind there are no negative thoughts. Will it happen, will it not happen, is it possible, is it not possible— these things are completely removed by this simple act of faith. Now he believes Shiva will do it for him and it will happen. So is Shiva going to come and build your house? No, I want you to understand, God will not lift his little finger for you. What you refer to as God is the source of creation. As a creator, he has done a phenomenal job, there's no question about it. Could you think of a better creation than this? Is it in anybody's imagination to think anything better than what is there right now? So as a creator, he has done his job wonderfully well. But if you want life to happen the way you want it, because right now the very crux of your happiness happiness and your well-being is this. If at all if you're unhappy, the only and only reason why you're unhappy is life is not happening the way you think it should happen. That's all it is. So if life is not happening the way you think it is— it should happen, you're unhappy. If life happens the way you think it should happen, you're happy. It's as simple as that. If life has to happen the way you think it should happen, first of all, how you think, with how much focus you think, how much stability is there in your thought, and how much reverberance is there in the thought process will determine whether your thought will become a reality or is it just an empty thought, or how you do not create any impediments for your thought by creating negative thought process. This possible— is something possible or not possible is destroying humanity. What is possible and not possible is not your business, it's nature's business. Your business is just to strive for what you want.
Because you made it this far in the video, I want to celebrate you. Most people start and don't finish. Most people never actually follow through. Most people say they want something, but they don't ever do the work to actually get it. But you are different. You are special. Believe Nation, you made it here all the way to the end, and I love you. So as a special celebration, if you put a hashtag #believe down in the comments below on this video, I will showcase you and celebrate you somewhere on the screen in a future video because you are awesome. If you want the guide to a fulfilling life with Joe Dispenza, check the video right there next to me. I think you'll love it. Continue to believe and I'll see you there.
When you begin to create from the field instead of from matter, the only way you can do that is you have to learn how to take all of your attention off your body and become a nobody. Take all of your attention
