How to Unlock the Full Potential of Your Mind | Dr. Joe Dispenza on Impact Theory (2)
While the redundancy of that cycle conditions the body to become the minds. So now when it comes time to change
Person's steps into that river of change and they make a different choice in all of a sudden
They don't they don't feel the same way
So the body says well you've been doing this for 35 years
Well, you're gonna just stop feel suffering and stop feeling guilty and stop feeling shameful and you're not gonna complain or blame or make excuses
Or feel sorry for yourself long
The body's in the unknown so the body says I want to return back to familiar territory
so the body starts influencing the mind then it says
Start tomorrow, you're too much like your mother. You'll never change. This isn't gonna work for you. This doesn't feel right
And so if you respond to that thought as if it's true that same thought will lead to the same choice
Which will lead to the same behavior, which will create the same experience which produce the same emotion
I want to talk about that notion of
Give me a little more detail. We mean by the body becomes the mind or the unconscious mind. What do you mean by that exactly?
Well, those are two different things your body is your unconscious mind
in a sense if you're sitting down and you start thinking about
Some future worst-case scenario that you're conjuring up in your mind and you begin to feel the emotion of that event
your body doesn't know the difference between
The event that's taking place in your world outer world and what you're creating by emotion or thought alone. So most people then
They're they're constantly
reaffirming their emotional states
So when it comes time to give up that emotion
they can say I really want to do it but really the body is stronger than the mind because it's been conditioned that way so
The servant now has become the master and the person all of a sudden once they step into that unknown
They'd rather feel guilt and suffering because at least they can predict it being in the unknown
Is a scary place for most people because the unknown is uncertain people say to me. Well, I can't predict my future
I'm in the unknown and I always say the best way to predict your futures have created
Not from the known but from the unknown what thoughts? Do you want to fire and wire in your brain?
what behaviors do you want to demonstrate in one day the act of rehearsing the mentally closing your eyes and
rehearsing the action
the rehearsing the reaction of what you want or the action of what you want by closing your eyes and mentally rehearsing some action if
You're truly present. The brain does not know the difference between what you're imaging and what you're experiencing in 3d world
so then you begin to install the
Neurological Hardware in your brain to look like the event has already occurred
Now your brain is no longer a record of the past now
It's a map to the future and if you keep doing it priming it that way
the hardware becomes a software program and who knows you just may start acting like a happy person and then I think the
hardest part is
To teach our body emotionally what the future will feel like ahead of the actual experience. So, what does that mean?
You can't wait for your success to feel empowered. You can't wait for your wealth to feel abundant
you can't wait for your your new relationship to feel love or
Your healing to feel whole I mean that's the old model of reality of cause and effect, you know
Waiting for something outside of us to change how we feel inside of us and when we feel better inside of us
We pay attention to ever or whatever caused it
But what that means then is that from the Newtonian world that most people spend their whole life living in lack
Will hitting through something to change out their what do you mean the Newtonian world?
Newtonian world is all about the predictable
It's all about predicting the future
But the quantum model of reality isn't is about causing an effect the moment you start feeling
Abundant and worthy you are generating wealth the moment you're empowered and feel it
You're beginning to step towards your success the moment. You start feeling whole
Your healing begins and when you love yourself and you love all of life
You'll create an equal and now you're causing an effect
and
I think that's that the difference between living as a victim in
Your world saying I am this way because of this person or that thing or this experience
They made me think and feel this way when you switch that around you become a creator of your world and you start
My thinking and my feeling is changing an outcome in my life
And now that's a whole different game and we start believing more that were creators of reality. So, how do we go from?
Okay, I have this negative emotion. It's controlling my life. It's got me in this cycle of I think about this emotion
which triggers a chemical reaction which trains my body to feel that way which makes it easier more likely I will do it again and
so now I'm in this vicious line unconscious and it's unconscious right and you
You said does your thinking create your environment orders your environment create your thinking which I thought was really really interesting. So
how do we then go from that like
mechanistically
To begin this visualization process of something that's empowering its me in a different state. It's my future self
Is it meditation is it what does that look like if you're not being defined by a vision of the future?
Then you're left with the old memories of the past and you will be predictable in your life
and
If you wake up in the morning
and you're not being defined by a vision in the future as you see the same people and you go to the same places and
You do the exact same thing at the exact same time
It's no longer that your personality is creating your personal reality
Now your personal reality is affecting or creating your personality
Your environment is really controlling how you think and feel?
unconsciously because every person every thing every place every experience has a neurological network in your brain every
Experience that you have with every person produces an emotion. So some people will use their boss to reaffirm their addiction to judgment
They'll use their enemy to reaffirm their addiction to hatred to use their friends that we affirm their addiction to suffering
So now they need the outer world to feel something. So
To change them is to be greater than your environment to be greater than the conditions in your world and the environment
Is that seductive so then why is meditation the tool well?
Let's sit down. Let's close our eyes. Let's disconnect
from your outer environment
So if you're seeing less things is less stimulation going to your brain if you're playing soft music or you have earplugs in
Less sensory information coming to your brain. So you're disconnecting from environment if you can sit your body down and
Tell it to stay like an animal stay right here. I'm gonna feed you when we're done
You can get up and check your emails
You can do all your texts, but right now you're gonna sit there and obey me
So then when you do that properly and the you're not eating anything or smelling anything or tasting anything?
You're not up experiencing and feeling anything. You would have to agree with me that you're being defined by a thought, right?
So when the body wants to go back to its emotional past
And you become aware that your attention is on that emotion
And where you place your attention is where you place your energy?
you're siphoning your energy out of the present moment into the past and you become aware of that and
You settle your body back down in the present moment because it's saying well, it's eight o'clock
You normally get upset because you're in traffic around this time and here you are sitting and we're used to feeling anger and you're off
Schedule. Oh, it's 11 o'clock and usually check your emails and judge everybody. Well, the body is looking for that that predictable chemical state
every time you
become aware that you're doing that and your body is craving those emotions and
You settle it back down into the present moment. You're telling the body
it's no longer the mind that you're the mind and now your will is
Getting greater than the program and if you keep doing this over and over again over and over again over and over again
Just like training a stallion or a dog. It's just gonna say
I'm gonna sit and the moment that happens when the body's no longer the mind when it finally surrenders
There's a liberation of energy
We go from particle to wave from matter to energy and we free ourselves from the chains
Of those emotions that keep us in the in the familiar past and we've seen this
Thousands of times. In fact, we can actually predict it now on a brain scan. That's so interesting
Let's go a little bit harder on
Metacognition the notion that you don't have to believe everything you think I love the way that you talk about that. Hmm
Yeah, and we have a huge frontal lobe. It's 40% of our entire brain and
most people
when they have a thought they just think that that's the truth and I think one of my greatest
Realizations in my own journey was just because you have a thought it doesn't necessarily mean it's true
so if you think 60 to 70 thousand thoughts in one day and we do and 90% of those thoughts are the same thoughts as
The day before and you believe that your thoughts have something to do with your destiny
Your life's not gonna change very much
Because the same thought leads to the same choice the same choice leads to the same behavior the same
behavior creates the same experience and the same experience produces the same motion and so then
the act of becoming conscious of this process to
to begin to become more aware of
How you think how you act in how you feel? It's called metacognition
and so then
why is that important because the more conscious you become of those unconscious states of mind and body the
Less likely you're gonna go unconscious during the day and that thought is not gonna slip by your awareness unchecked
because your
It means to know thyself and the word meditation means to become familiar with
So as you become familiar with the thoughts the behaviors and the emotions of the old self
You're retiring that old self as you fire and wire new thoughts and condition the body into a new emotional state if you do that
Enough times it'll begin to become familiar to you. So it's so important
Just like a garden if you're planting a garden, you've got to get rid of the weeds
You got to take the plants from the past year and you got to pull them out the rocks that sift to the top that
Are like our emotional blocks they have to be removed that soil has to be tenderized and broken down
We have to we have to make room to plant the new garden
So primarily we learn the most about ourselves
and others when we're
uncomfortable because the moment you move into that uncomfortable state normally a program jumps in
