Summary

Core Theme

The core theme is that significant life transformation and healing are achievable by understanding and consciously changing one's internal state, particularly emotional and mental patterns, rather than solely relying on external circumstances or processing past traumas.

75 to 90% of every person that walks

into a healthc care facility in the

Western World walks in because of

emotional or psychological stress we

also know that people become addicted to

the stress hormones to those emotions

and then they need the bad job they need

the bad relationship they need the

traffic they need the news just so that

they can stay in that emotional state

but now you're headed for disease

because no organism can live in

emergency mode for that extended period

of time but I literally can give people

the tools to be able to break those

emotional addictions and our data shows

it works better than any drug Dr Joe

dispenza is a world leading voice on the

power of the Mind whose groundbreaking

research has unlocked a practical

formula to empower millions of people to

rewire their minds and create

longlasting change if I'm looking to

change my life because it's in this

horrible cycle of the same old same old

and I feel about myself what do I need

to know I think that the first thing is

you can't tell me that your past was so

brutal that you can't change cuz we have

seen people with some really really

horrible pasts abuses difficult

childhoods some very serious traumas we

have seen them change that belief and

become completely different people but

also the research shows that 50% of the

story We Tell in our past isn't even the

truth that means that people are

reliving a miserable life they never

even had just to excuse themselves from

changing or they wait for something to

go wrong in their life and that's when

they go okay I'm ready to change why

wait for that you know we can learn and

change in a saate of pain and suffering

can learn and change in a state of joy

and inspiration and so I want to provide

people the information how to make new

Connections in their brain and be able

to think act and feel differently in

your same environment so let's break it

down this has always blown my mind a

little bit 53% of you that listen to the

much Dr Joe how do you define when

someone asks you what it is you do I

teach people uh the neuroscience and the

biology of what it really means to

change and I think when we change our

life changes so my interest is to

demystify that process so that people

have within their reach the tools to

make measurable changes in their lives

and what is that you're drawing upon

what experiences what studies what

research you drawing upon to give the

world these Solutions I was interested

really in the transcendental experience

the transcendental moment um so when

when I started teaching this work um I

taught the work because people were

asking how do you do it like how do you

change your life and what does it mean

to change and

so I want to provide people the

information uh where they can actually

learn the information make new

Connections in their brain that's what

learning is repeat what they've learned

to the person next to them you know

build a model of understanding so you

can remember it remind yourself what

you've learned because it's so much

easier forget this information then to

remember it so create a new level of

mind um take away all the doubt the

conjecture the Superstition the

dogma and so that the person can

actually understand what they're doing

and why they're doing so the how gets

easier and when the how gets easier we

assign meaning to the act because we

understand what we're doing and when we

do that we want a greater outcome so I

want to give people the information and

I com I looked at all the latest

research that pointed the finger at

human potential and human

possibility I had my own personal

experience with a personal injury we

talked about it last time I studied

spontaneous remissions I wanted to see

what people had in common with each

other and I couldn't find the

explanation pretty much in contemporary

uh uh texts I had to start looking at

neuroplasticity and epigenetics and then

I wanted to see well now that I know

what people did and I understood what

they did to have their own personal

healings and

transformation um could I reproduce the

effects that no knowing what they did

finding out what the commonalities were

uh putting it in the language of Science

and then teaching it to people they

could be sick or they could be well it

wouldn't matter but understand what they

did in order for them to change and have

their life change and after a couple

years of teaching it we started to see

kind of the same type of effects uh in

those people that were applying and

doing something with it so so this is a

time in history where it's not enough to

know this is a time in history to know

how so when we started seeing people

stepping out of wheelchairs and having

dramatic changes in their health I knew

that in some moment uh during the

retreat or during their meditation

meditation

that something happened to them they had

an experience inwardly that must have

changed them biologically in other words

if you come into a an event and uh you

have three days to be together and at

the end of three days you're you're no

longer in your wheelchair and you no

longer have symptoms of MS that you know

the the human being in me said wow

that's amazing the scientists and me

said how like how did that

happen so that's when we started doing

our own independent research and that's

when I started calling in N scientists

and um you know biologists and and

Quantum physicists and and and really

scientists to measuring it heart rate

variability uh to look to see what was

going on uh in people that were coming

to our events so I could answer the

question by saying now that the majority

of the

research uh that I look at is our own

personal research and we have the largest

largest

database uh in the world now on

meditation and the Mind Body Connection

and what we do is we really work on

demystifying the process of change and

transformation and if we're able to

demystify it I think all the all of the

measurements of the transformation that

we're seeing is more information for me

to teach transformation better and I

think that's how we close the gap

between knowledge and experience so we

have a huge research team we work with

UC San Diego we work with other

universities like Harvard Stanford and

the data is so compelling uh and the

data is so amazing uh that um uh I think

we're making scientific history right

now hundreds of millions of people have

been drawn to you for their own reasons

my partner is one of them my girlfriend

she has attended your events she's she's

one of your biggest fans in the world

and she's experienced her own

transformation as a product of attending

your events but also last conversation

if I look at the co top comments it's

just a string of testimonials from

people who have been engaged with your

work for decades who have had personal

transformation in their life in their

family what is the essence of why people

come to you like if you think about the

hundreds of millions of people that have

interacted with your work what do they

have in common what is it they're

looking for people come for all kinds of

reasons the Baseline is that they

understand on some level that that

meditation can change their body and

change their life some people uh

understand that there's a that they

could have mystical experiences without

using any exogenous substances so we

have people to come that come that want

to heal their body that want to have a

new job or a new career or become

abundant people that want to have loving

relationships some people want to have

mystical experiences whatever that is

right but the person is coming with the

intention of actually creating exactly

what they want so they that's the that's

what they think they're there for but in

time um what they're really coming for

is to change uh and um even the people

who heal from all kinds of health

conditions what I learned in the last

couple years is they're not doing their

meditations to heal they're doing their

meditations to change and when they

change they heal and so what they begin

to Crave is the next unknown experience

you know that that experience that

exists really Beyond three-dimensional

reality but but I would say that the

majority of people come for a particular

reason and after a period of time they

just want to get more whole and I don't

think there's an end to that is there a

bug in our minds or in our society or

within culture that stands in the way of

our ability to change and I think as I

asked that question question what I'm

really trying to get at is there's a

culture that's emerged almost like a bit

of a trauma culture where we we kind of

explain who we are based on what's

happened to us and it seems to be

justified I this thing happened when I

was a kid and that's why I am this way

is that approach to viewing our trauma

productive or unproductive and is it a

problem the stronger the emotion we feel

from some event in our life a trauma a

betrayal a loss a shock

um a

diagnosis the the event produces an

emotional response and the high quotient

of the emotional response changes our

internal State and the moment we feel

altered inside of us the brain takes a

snapshot freezes a frame or a series of

frames and takes snapshots and that's

called a long-term

memory so then from a biological

perspective every time the person rememb

the problem they're producing the exact

same chemistry in their brain and body

as if the event was happening cortisol

the adrenaline whatever the emotion is

when they feel that emotion we could say

then that the body is reliving the event

emotionally 50 to 100 times in a day so

the trauma is no longer in the brain at

that point now the trauma is also in the

body because thoughts are the language

of the brain brain and feelings are the

language of the body and it's that

thought and that feeling it's that image

and that emotion it's that stimulus and

response that's conditioning the body

subconsciously to become the mind of

that emotion and now that person

emotionally is a brand branded into the

past and you can say to them why are you

this way why are you so angry why are

you so bitter why are you so mistrusting

why are you so afraid and they'll say to

you I am this way

because of these events or that event

that happened to me in my life 20 or 30

years ago now this is kind of an

interesting thing because in a sense their

their

identity is completely connected to

their past and they as long as they feel that

that

emotion uh they'll always remember the

past so

now the body is so objective when it

feels that emotion it does not know the

difference between the real life

experience that's creating the emotion

and the emotion that person is

fabricating by thought alone so now the

body's believing it's living in the past

event 24 hours a day 7 days a week 365

days a year but what the person is

really saying is after that event I

haven't been able to

change that's what they're saying and

so that becomes the person's identity

and there's nothing wrong with this but

you'll never hear me say uh in any of

the work that we do uh go back and

process the past

um uh we we've discovered that when a person

person

analyzes uh their problems uh within the

emotions of the past they make their

brain worse they actually drive it

further out of balance they're they're

over arousing it we discovered is that

if the person can get beyond the

emotion truly get beyond the emotion

uh they'll free themselves from the past

and what we discovered is that if you

teach a person to give up the

fear the bitterness the resentment the

frustration the impatience the Judgment

you say stop feeling that emotion I know

there's a reason why I'm sure

everybody's got a story right so but

there's nothing that's going to change

that story until you change right and so

we discovered that if you trade those emotions

emotions

for an elevated emotion if you start

feeling gratitude and appreciation and

love and kindness and care and you

practice feeling that emotion we give

you some tools to to use to change your

breathing to put your attention a a

different place and to work with your

body what we discovered is when the

person can truly begin to open their

heart and we have brain scans on this

when the heart begins to open and it

begins to become coherent in other words

when you're feel feeling uh frustration

or impatience or judgment your heart is

beating very incoherently when you're

feeling love and gratitude kindness and

Care there's a rhythm there's a there's

a Cadence that the heart has that's it's

very coherent when the heart gets

coherent we measure

this it immediately informs the brain

that the trauma is over the heart tells

the brain the past is over the event is

over and it resets the

Baseline uh in the brain and so now the

person when they look back at their past

they're no longer looking at it from the

same level of Consciousness in fact many

of them will say oh my God I needed to

go through all of that to get to this

point right here they'll tell you they

they'll they'll say I wouldn't want to

change one thing in my past because it

got me to the present moment okay

so we work with Navy Seals special ops

prisoners we work with people uh that

have had some very serious traumas

really serious abuses uh um uh just

difficult childhoods uh these people are

you know night terrors uh

suicidal um can't you know leave their

homes uh socially

uh having trouble panic attacks it's

kind of funny because the moment that

person actually breaks through from the

emotion and the words they typically

describe was they say was like my heart

exploded it's like my heart blew wide

open the moment that happens they're

bringing their body right out of the

past right into the present moment and

lo and behold many times there goes the

anxiety there goes the depression there

goes the cyclic mood patterns somehow

the body uh gets recalibrated back into

order back into homeostasis so

the point I'm making is is that the

memory without the emotional charge is

called wisdom and now you're you're

ready for the next adventure in your

life the soul can't go to the next

adventure if it's holding on to the past

so we don't really ever address the

story because the story is only firing

and wiring the same circuits in the

brain reaffirming the identity to the

Past just to feel the same emotion and

the research shows that 50% of the story

We Tell in our past is is even the truth

that means that people are reliving a

miserable life they never even had just

to excuse themselves from changing right

I'm not taking shots at anybody but what

I am saying is you can't tell me that

your past was so brutal that you can't

change CU we have seen people with some

really really horrible pasts um that

literally literally are are completely

different people that have completely

different lives I really want to focus

in on what it is we're getting wrong

when we're trying to treat trauma in

modern society because I see all of

these Retreats that are like inner child

healing and they kind of take you back

to when you were a young child the thing

that happened to you whatever happened

in your life and they kind of walk you

back through it um there's also various

types of therapy that make you kind of

recount the events and then they ask you

questions about it you're saying that

you don't feel like those approaches are

optimal because they just keep you in

that circuit of living reliving the

emotion no I I wouldn't say they're not

optimal I mean I'm sure there's value

for people all I'm saying is that um

when does the story end and I'm not

certain that

Insight changes Behavior you could have

a realization or even from an exogenous

drug you can have a realization or an

Insight but if you still can't function

in your life and you're still you know

you're haven't connected with your wife

or you know you're still dealing with

trauma it just hasn't served you at all

like so the Insight that your your

father was overbearing or your mother

was a perfectionist or you were beaten

as a kid uh and that's why you're this

way it doesn't change the behavior let

me give you an example then from my life

because this will make it really

specific so when I was young something

I've talked about on the show but it's

just an example that allows me to Think

Through um your approach my mom and dad

argued a lot and I would watch my mother

in particular spend a lot of time

shouting at my dad my dad didn't really

respond he was very passive and it made

me feel a certain way as a young child

which meant that when I grew up I just

wanted to avoid women all cost in terms

of romantic commitment because I was

almost reliving the emotion of

imprisonment that I observed in my

father so I felt like when a girl was

interested in me throughout all of my

teen years throughout my early 20s even

if I was interested in her the minute we

came to Commitment I'd get that feeling

like I was signing up for prison and I

would reject now I got an insight into

this by writing in my diary actually

from doing this podcast because I used

to do it on my own just solo episodes

and I could see a pattern I could see

that someone asks me to commit I get

this weird feeling I reject them and

then I asked myself where did that weird

feeling come from in your past and I

remembered oh that's how I felt watching

my father and my mom when she would just

um scream at him for long periods of

time I had the Insight which was

somewhat useful but you're right in that

it didn't necessarily stop stop the

feeling but but what you did really well

is is in order for us to

change we have to become so conscious

of those unconscious beliefs and what's

a belief thought you just keep thinking

over and over again or how you've been

programmed right as a belief we have to

become so aware of our automatic habits

and behaviors and we have to pay

attention to our emotional states if

we're going to change and staying

conscious of our unconscious self is is

is really the the work that it takes to

really overcome so you can become

another person that's 95% of a person by

the the middle of their life their you

know hardwired attitudes beliefs and

perceptions automatic habits and

behaviors and unconscious emotional

responses 95% of us as programmed so as

a child your brain waves are um very

slow the door between the conscious mind

and the subconscious mind is wide open

your brain waves are in Alpha and Theta

and so you're very suggestible to to the

information and so your exposure to that

cause you to learn that that you know

your observation causes you to get

programmed to that the way life is by by

Mir neurons looking at behaviors that

are being programmed in you so so but

that's not who you are right so the fact

that you became conscious like oh my God

I do this oh my God I see where I got it

from okay that doesn't mean that that

I'm going to excuse myself and say I

can't be in relationships you could some

people do that might be a different

belief but they do that but you said I

really want to have a meaningful

relationship I really want to overcome

this that is part of me that I want to

change right so so you recognize that

that's called metacognition right the

the fact that you can objectify your

subjective self and observe yourself

that's Consciousness right and when

you're conscious then that's when you're not

not

unconscious and being unconscious is

being in the program so how many times

do we have to forget until we stop

forgetting and start remembering that's

the moment of change so you said okay that's

that's

uncomfortable that must mean something

and you actually went on a a personal

exploration yeah do something with the

Insight with the provocation with the

interest of actually wanting to change

yourself in some way so that you create

a a greater experience of life that

there is love in life and that you can

have a committed relationship and it

could be different from your parents and

now you know what you're not going to be

right so I think all of that is valuable

I think every experience that we have in

our life that programs us to be a

certain way sooner or later if we're if

we're interested in arriving at the

goals and dreams that we want there's we

have to leave that behind sooner or

later a part of us Must Die uh as sooner

or later we have to leave that so I

think you I think that's that's

Evolution that first is the first step

Insight like is this a a sequential

multi-step process to change I think

that I think Insight is an AS ECT of um

awareness so is awareness States yeah so

Consciousness is awareness and awareness

is paying attention and

noticing so I think that I think the

first step is to become conscious um

that we're a certain way and sometimes

it lands as an Insight or a download or

a life experience that just kind of goes

you go wo like you know so I I I behaved

this way or I did this thing so so I

think I think when you you don't have

that you don't have a conscience and you

can just and you can just keep staying

in that world and but but sooner or

later uh you have to become aware how do

I increase my awareness by paying

attention is there a practice or a

system or a process yeah yeah but

what what we know is that that the the

more you practice being present the

better you get at it okay and so how do

you do that if you sit in a meditation

right and so there's a mode in the brain

called default mode and it's just always

busy it's consuming enormous amounts of

energy in the brain and it's always

trying to predict the future based on

what it knows in the past it's a kind of

an anticipation machine it's always

trying to um fill in a known in reality

so we feel safe

so a default mode system in the brain

when you close your eyes on a meditation

is going going to immediately go into

overdrive it's going to say oh my back

hurts a little bit I'm kind of thirsty

how long's this going to go I really

don't want to do this I don't like the

music you know uh is it's might be too

long oh I'm starting to get a little

frustrated I want to lay down you know

all this stuff comes up and then people

have the belief and they say I can't

meditate that's that's their conclusion

from The Experience that's their I'm not

a good meditator that's their

affirmation that's their belief right

from that experience but if you say to a

person listen that's normal

but every time you catch

yourself going unconscious catch

yourself going unconscious and become

conscious that's a

victory and as tedious as it may be in the

the

beginning the more you catch yourself

going unconscious and becoming conscious

the more conscious you become in your

life and and all of a sudden you begin

to pay attention to things that you

weren't paying attention to before so in

the work that we do we say that being in

the present moment truly in the present

moment is being comfortable in the

unknown right the present moment is the

unknown because there is the familiar

past that we feel emotionally and we

have the predictable future which are

both the

knowns being the present moment is being

the unknown and that goes against

thousands of years of programming

because our biology is programmed that

if we are truly the unknown we should be

in survival because if you're in

survival and you're in the fight ORF

flight system the unknown is a threat

it's a danger so always try to predict

the future based on the past and you'll

have better chances of survival predict

the worst case scenario be ready for

that anything less that happens you have

better chance of

surviving so then to rest in the unknown

goes against a lot of our biology and we

discovered that when a person keeps

doing it over and over again the body

gets agitated it gets frustrated it gets

impatient instead of the person saying I

quit give them something to do and they

can lower the volume to the emotion and

settle the animal down like training an

animal setting settling the body back

down into the present moment we we teach

people how to do that and that's the

victory giving them something to do yeah

they have it they have something to do

when that comes up okay which is I I'll

get to it in a second and if they catch

their mind going from a person to

another person to another object to

their cell phone to their computer to a

place they need to be and you know a

time and know their they catch

themselves with their brain firing in modulated

modulated

compartments if they keep catching

themselves doing that if they keep doing

that and they they catch the circuit

when it's firing and they settle it down

in time sooner later they're going to

stop firing those circuits in the brain

and their brain waves begin to change

change from an agitated aroused State

into a more coherent and slower brain

wave state so when they do this enough

times the brain begins to synchronize

the brain begins to fire in Greater

levels of wholeness or greater levels of

order so when that occurs then the

nervous system gets very regulated gets

very orderly the autonomic nervous

system moves into a state of

regulation disregulation of the

autonomic nervous system is called

stress right so so to answer your

question when people do this really well

in just a few days they'll get really

good at it the side effect of that is

they get very relaxed in their heart

it's relaxed in the heart and it's awake

in the brain and the more relaxed you

get in your heart we've discovered

really relaxing into your heart the more

the heart informs the brain to get

creative and so now the person has this

kind of synchronization that's taking

place between their part in their brain

as well and they can rest in the present moment

moment

so the way you do that is you define

what it really means to change and to

change is to be greater than the

conditions in your environment to be

able to think act and feel differently

in your same environment that's what

change is to change is to be greater

than your body to be greater than its Dy

lives in the meditation I'm speaking

specifically greater than its emotional

responses its memories its emotional

reactions greater than its habits The

Habit is when you've done something so

many times the body knows how to do it

better than the conscious mind there

that's so so if you're sitting in a

meditation your body wants to get up and

wants to get going and got people to see

things to do that's kind of like

automatic right and people get up and

they say I can't meditate but if you

tell them that when you notice that you

bring your body back into the present

moment you settle it down and tell it

it's no longer the mind that you're the

mind you're training the animal sooner

or later the body literally responds to

a new mind and there's literally a

liberation of energy the body begins to

liberate energy and if the person's not

thinking about time if you're not

thinking about where you need to be

where you need to go where you were

yesterday where you're sitting where you

live you know if you're not thinking

about any place you can go from

somewhere to nowhere and if you're not

thinking about the predictable future or

the familiar past you can go from

sometime to no time and we discovered

when a person becomes nobody no one no

thing nowhere and no time they literally

become pure Consciousness and opening

our awareness I know this is kind of

difficult to explain because we're

materialists opening our awareness to

nothing and sensing space

tends to cause us to move more into the

Eternal present moment and there's a

change that takes place in the brain so

we teach that and what awareness comes

out of that state so if I'm looking to

change my life because you know I'm

continually performing habits that are

not optimal you know I want to be

married and have a family and I want to

be productive in my work and I want to

go to the gym and Etc and my life is

just in this horrible cycle of the same

old same old same old and I feel

about about myself I know what I say I

want but I feel about myself what's

going to emerge from that process of

deep meditation in ter of awareness

you'll become so conscious of those

unconscious habits that more than likely

you won't want to do them again and

that's what uh uh for the most part

change is about so I think

people wait for crisis you know they

wait for disease they wait for a

betrayal something to go wrong in their

life and that's when they go okay I'm

ready to change my message is why wait

dude like why wait for that you know we

can learn and change in a state of pain

and suffering we can learn and change in

a state of joy and inspiration so then

you get a collective group of people

together that really may have all those

bad habits they they they may even have

bad habits that they don't even know they

they

have and then all of a sudden they

become aware that they've been blaming

and complaining and making excuses and

feeling sorry for themselves and procrastinating

procrastinating

and they start to reason if my

personality creates my personal reality

if I'm going to create a new personal

reality I got to change my personality

because this guy that that that's this

isn't the guy that wants to be happy

this is the guy who's committed to being

unhappy okay let's break it down let's

get down the fundamentals and now we

give them a road map of their thoughts

behaviors and emotions that that they

have lived by is that step two person

yeah you could say that step two is is

becoming conscious of your unconscious

self and then becoming conscious of a

new self Reinventing a new self and so

the person who's feeling really bad

about themselves because they're not

they're not doing anything to change

it's just

because um when you're not changing

you're still choosing uh but what you're

choosing is something that makes you

feel familiar and comfortable because

the moment you decide to change truly

get serious about change the moment you

decide to make a different choice and do

something differently you are going to

feel uncomfortable it's going to be

immediate and that's the moment you go

from the known into the unknown now if

the body has been emotionally

conditioned to be the mind like we

talked about earlier the servant is the

master and so the person who steps out

into the unknown and it feels

uncomfortable what is the body going to

say get back to

suffering get back to feeling bad get

back to feeling guilty at least that's

familiar that's known so tell a person

there's going to be a biological death

of the old self neurologically

chemically hormonally genetically

there's the old self is going to die

just know that that's going to happen

but instead of white knuckling it across

the river of change we're going to give

you something to do because that unknown

place is the perfect place to create in

so let's get you into the unknown but

let's get you there where you're relaxed

and awake

you're not escaping and if you do that

really well you're you'll be in a

creative state so you actually will be

out of survival and you'll be able to

create because you could only be in

survival or creation can't be in both so

let's get your body physiologically back

in the balance let's get it there now

who do you want to be what do you want

to believe let's review that what's a

belief a thought you keep thinking over

and over in your brain keep remembering

to think this way in your meditation how

am I going to be with my ex or my boss

let me close my eyes and think about

what greatness looks like what

forgiveness would do what love would do

let me just let me close my eyes and

mentally rehearse how I'm going to be in

that circumstance I'm going to keep

remembering to do these things so I

don't forget keep doing it over and over

again you start installing the hardware

repeat it enough times it gets like a

software program you start behaving that way

way

automatically and then my goodness is it

possible to teach our body emotionally

how we do want to feel before it happens

in other words don't wait for your

wealth to feel abundant or your your

success to feel empowered or your

healing to feel wholeness that's waiting

for something in your outer World to

Change to take away the The Emptiness or

lack that you're feeling in your inner

World teach your body emotionally what

it feels like ahead of the actual

experience and the moment you start

feeling abundant you're generating

wealth the moment you can embody

empowerment you're stepping towards your

your success the moment you feel

grateful and whole be The Healing Begins

right so now you're starting to cause an

effect in your life so have the person

keep remembering to feel that way and

have them practice sooner or later

they'll start feeling that way more and

the more they feel that way the more

they'll believe in their future and some

people get so good at doing it that they

walk around feeling that emotion they

feel like their future has already

happened and when you feel like the

future has already happened you stop

looking for it and that's when the magic

starts to take place in people's lives

the synchronicities the coincidences the

opportunities they start coming to them

in their life and and that's the

reflection of their own personal

change I've seen thousands and thousands

tens of thousands of testimonials of

people saying jod sper CH changed my

life I mean I've got one at home right

got a testimonial that I live with um

I'm sorry no it's no honestly I I love

it because she's so she's probably back

there somewhere but she's so passate and

inquisitive and curious that I almost

vicariously am benefiting from the like

work and research she's doing and she's

bringing things into our relationship in

life that are making it more rich and

full and I have a certain perspective

which I wouldn't naturally go into that

world and even with breath work and the

other things that she's brought into our

relationship I wouldn't have naturally

gone there so it's super useful but

there must be instances where you've met

someone and you've tried to help them

and you've been unsuccessful of course and

and

why don't those people change because

I'm assuming that you think most people

can change they have the propensity to

change why does it not work

sometimes and scientists asked me this

you know we talk about this all the time

uh sometimes uh being in such severe

lack uh of and Desperation desperation

you know uh creates a state where you

can't hear anything um because you you

don't you no new

information can enter the nervous system

that is not equal to the emotion the

person is experiencing as an ex just as

a broad understanding this is why we

don't do questions in our

events because you can give the person

the answer to the question that they're

asking you and they will not hear you

they will not hear you in fact they will

argue against you but if you get that

person out of that emotional state and

the only person that's going to do that

is them by the way get that person out

of their emotional state they can hear

that information so sometimes we're

programmed into such lack we're

programmed right to wait for something

out there to change to take away this

emptiness or lack you know when this

happens I'll feel this you know and so

when things are good in our life we feel

good and when things aren't so good in

our life we feel bad so we're kind of

victimized to the circumstances in our

life it's our outer world is controlling

our inner world of thoughts and feelings

so if the person has been programmed

into saying um I I I I I I why haven't I

healed or why hasn't this happened in my

life because the person who's saying why

haven't I healed is the old self the new

self would never say that right the new

self is too busy overcoming and becoming

right so I think people meet

information uh at their own level but

what I can tell you that is so

compelling and so

exciting is that when we get people on

the stage and it happens every event

it's it's

really quite

unbelievable to see a person stand on

the stage in front of 2300 people you

would walk right past her in the grocery

store um she doesn't look vegan she

doesn't look ketogenic she doesn't look

particularly fit or young or dressed

well you know whatever that is she just

looks like a normal person and they

stand on the stage and they tell their

story of how they were diagnosed with

cancer or um whatever the condition is

and what they did uh in their life to

change those health conditions and

there's numerous health

conditions when I look out in the

audience uh and I look at people uh

there isn't a soul in the audience that

isn't leaning in everybody is leaning in

because there's the example of Truth on

the stage and there's nothing like a

good story right so the change that

we're seeing in our community is that

there's a greater

acceptance a greater belief a greater

understanding a greater awareness to the

idea that you could actually heal

because people witness it and the person

in the audience who's seeing that person

who healed themselves from whatever

health condition it is

relates to them and they say my God if

if that person can do it I can do it as

well and just like an infection spreads

amongst the culture and creates disease

health and wellness can become as

infectious as disease right and so we

have it's not

uncommon like when that person stands on

the stage and they're the 4minute mile

if the person as Renard's syndrome we've

had events where four other people with

reard syndrome healed at the end of the

event like no longer have any symptoms

at all or we've had five people in one

event step out of a wheelchair now if

you ask me if I ever thought that was

possible I would say no so I do think uh

when a person sees that example of Truth

their awareness of possibility begins to

change and um the evidence then allows

the person to increase their own belief

uh in in themselves and

impossibility you used to add earlier on

the the word identity and I've been

pondering over the last couple of weeks

whether identity is useful cuz this is a

really trivial example but I've told

myself for a long time I don't like

running and this Christmas I decided

that it's probably important for me to

take on some of these limiting beliefs I

have so I just started running and in

doing so and going through the pain of

like Oh my legs hurt whatever I had this

sort of realization that like what other

areas of my life have I just created a

story that is closing in on me and

making my life more narrow and uh in

terms of how I think or like my health

or whatever and and so for the last

couple of weeks I've really been

thinking about this concept of identity

like what it is why we create one and

how harmful or positive it might be to

all of us yeah well look I mean I don't

I think we're all a work in progress

right I think it's an uncovering process

so I I always tell people you can be

anybody you want you can be any

character you want to be in

three-dimensional it in this in this

kind of virtual reality experience you

get to put on any character but when it

comes time to create when it comes time

to connect you got to lay down that

character you got to lay down the

identity you got to lay down that person

right and some people are have become

so uh uh idealized to their identity

that they can't be anything else and so

uh I don't think the identity is bad I

think I think as long as long as we're

able to to lay it down when we create

it's important and by the same means if

there are aspects of your personality or your

your

identity that is undermining um your

life in some way uh and this happens to

so many people we see even with you know

when they're when they're getting

healings that they they their blood

values get better and then they get back

into their life and they blood values go

back up and then they get more healings

and their blood values go down and they

go back into their life and sooner or

later this goes on four or five times they

they

say is it me like do I have something to

do with this and and the answer is

always yes if you if you want to take

the sign you can't take you can't take

one bite you got to actually eat the

whole thing

so so the so then what aspect of your

identity then is limiting you uh and

what is that story that you're saying to

reaffirm it to be the truth and is it

really the truth and if it's not the

truth then you got to make a decision

and you got to make a decision with such

firm intention to change that belief

that the amplitude of that choice

carries a level of energy that causes

your body to respond to your mind that

the choice that you're making in that

moment becomes a moment in time that

you'll never forget in other words you

have to say I knew exactly where I was

what I was doing what time of day it was

when I made up my mind to change right

it becomes a long-term memory and the

stronger emot the stronger the emotion

you feel when you make that choice the

more you remember the choice right and

so you can't say oh well I think I'm

going to change this kind of part of my

identity and your your body's going to

say he's lying like he's not serious

he's going to still make the same Choice

when you say this is it I don't care how

long it takes time I don't care how I

feel body I don't care what people think

of me or what's going on in my life

environment I'm going to change and you

come out of your resting state and you

make that choice you're giving your body

a taste of the future emotionally that's

what you're doing and so people who make

up their mind to change they have to

come out of their resting state and they

have to say th I'm doing this and and

that is a a strong signal in the field

so does that mean that if I do want to

change and I need that kind of escape

velocity for my old self the why the

reason must be abundantly clear

incredibly strong so if I'm in if I'm

making a New Year's resolution I'm not

going to just say listen I I want this

New Year's resolution because I think

people will think better of me if I have

it it's got to be so deep in my core and

I've got to be so clear and be able to

articulate the reason why this matters

to me for it to stand a chance yeah we

call that assigning meaning like so it's

so important to assign meaning to the

task or the act that we're uh engaging

and one of the best way to do that is to

hold that Vision or the dream of why

you're doing it I want to be healthier I

want to be more fit I want to be more

wealthy I want to be more free I want to

be more in love whatever it is the only

thing that's stopping you from being any

of those things is just a part of your

identity that has to change so that you

get there and it's nothing's mystical

about this if you said I want to be

wealthy this is your goal this is your

vision and here you are in lack the only

way you're going to get wealthy is this

person's going to have to change a lot

to find that wealth right so there's

nothing there's nothing mystical about

this we've all done it at some point in

our life where we just made up our mind

and and and what did we do when we when

we did it we got very clear like okay uh

let me remind myself what that vision is

I just got to remember why am I doing

this okay so I'm going to have to make a

different Choice let me write down those

choices I have to make I'm going to have

to start doing different things okay

what am I going to do let me remind

myself what I need to do okay why am I

doing it I'm doing for this experience

yeah I know it might hurt my legs in the

beginning or whatever it is I know it

may be a little uncomfortable I'm going

for this goal this is my goal and and

and the more we Fascinate about that

experience the more we start feeling the

emotion of that future that's when your

body what we've discovered is beginning

to biologically change because it's

starting to feel the emotion of the

future ahead of time right so that keeps

a person on the journey then we do

something really great we say what what

thoughts uh um do I want to stay away

from like I can't say I there's no way

I'm going to say I can't feel like it I

mean if you're truly committed to being

healthy and you're going to exercise you

can never say I'm too tired you can

never say I don't feel like it that's

going to cause you to not make the

choice right so it's kind of this

process where we're kind of doing that

exact thing we're actually looking at

the old identity and we're we're

reminding ourselves of who we want to

become right and and until you become it

and we discovered it's the overcoming

process that is the becoming process

when the person overcomes some belief

some behavior um some emotion when they

truly overcome it they naturally become

somebody else it's it's just a side

effect their their work in doing that

makes them love themselves more you also

have a lot of case studies of I was

reading a a lot of them from army

veterans and people that have been

through pretty horrific experience in

the Army I was reading a story of Joshua

who was a army veteran who I believe

came to one of your events and took part

in your meditation and described it in

his own words as his heart cracked wide

open yeah what happened with Joshua

because that's a good example of

personal transformation well

um we we have a program right now in the

veterans the Navy Seals special ops um

simply because there's lots of stories

like like Joshua where um you know he

was pretty much ready to give up on his

life and many of these veterans you know

they they they cope to the best of their

ability but they in the back of their

mind they have an exit plan they they

have the drugs ready they're you know

thinking about taking their life many of

them think this way and they've done uh

so many different um uh types of things

to help themselves and even even a lot

of them have done plant medicine and and

mushrooms and you know ketamine and all

kinds of things to help them but on some

level their their PTSD U wouldn't

doesn't go away and and Joshua is a

great example because he was at the very

bottom of the uh point in his life where

he was ready to give

up and you know the thing that I like to

do with veterans is to reason with them

if you have a if you have a a Navy SEAL

right and these are Elite

individuals if I tell them exactly what

will happen if they practice opening

their heart if if I say to them it's

going to reset the Baseline for trauma

in the brain they don't say how do I do

it they say yes sir like I'm going to do

I'm going to do it until it till it

happens and that's what happens to all

of these guys they're they get they're

they there's so much trauma in their

brain and body there's so much

incoherence in their nervous system

there's so many physical problems that

they're having

that they that they they they're just

really out of balance so if we if we

work with these people and give them all

the information and give them numerous

opportunities to apply it so many of

them break through and that's the moment

um their brain and body literally are no

longer connected to the memory uh or or

the emotion that keeps them in the past

and and they get recalibrated and he was

a drug addict an alcoholic a victim of

child abuse yeah and the before and

after of Joshua

dramatic yeah dramatic um again you know

we interview a lot of these veterans you

know we did we interviewed this he

didn't know anything about meditation

this guy never meditated in his life you

know he he didn't know anything about me

and know he didn't even know where he

was going this is how blind the study

was and he got there and he was just

like there's no way like I'm going to

hang out with all these people you know

he was really you know in and you know

always on guard and they asked him in

front of the camera like my goodness

like what happened and he and like he

got this is a guy that looks like a Navy

SEAL and he paused for like a

minute and he was got so emotional he

said I I got my life back I got my life

back I got every my marriage is great

again I'm in love with my kids I can

feel again I'm happy like I'm not faking

it I really feel a change you know

so that's how the vet the vet program

kind of grew through because the veteran

program was just a few vets coming that

were again injured in some way

physically or emotionally and completely

different at the end of the event

they're going to go tell their tribe

like right away like you got to do this

this really helped me so we have a

strong veteran community and you know we

have our one of our nonprofits the give

to give Foundation that works with

veterans and we create all kinds of

programs for them to heal and and we're

super proud of the results we're getting

someone like Joshua has been through so

much in their life where an objective

Observer would say it is warranted that

they might be living in a state of

victimhood how important is it to

forgive I think it's really uh one of

the fundamental things that Keep Us

Alive I mean forgiveness to me is just

overcoming the emotion that's it and

like if you overcome the emotion the

side effect of that is that your heart

will open that's exactly what happens

and when en energy moves into the heart

we start releasing different chemicals

than we when we feel angry or we feel

victimized or we feel sexual it's just a different

different

chemical Elixir and oxytocin is released

and oxytocin signals nitric oxide and

nitric oxide signals another chemical

that causes the arteries in your heart

to literally dilate the heart gets

filled with energy it's engorged with

blood when that occurs the oxytocin

level lels that you're feeling the love

that you're feeling um the studies show

that when oxytocin levels are just

elevated a little bit it's really hard

to hold a grudge you just can't right so

if you're willing to

forgive and you overcome the emotion

you'll take your attention off the

person or the problem right because the

stronger the emotion we have the more we

pay attention to our problems or the

person right overcome the emotion you no

longer have your attention on that

person and in a sense you're taking

energy and you're calling it back to you

right so you're building your own field and

and

so love is the Elixir that allows us to

forgive in other words you can't

say I'm going to forgive you it's uh

January 31st or February 1st remember

this day we got a thing I forgave you so

that's not like forgiveness when people

really have that feeling of pure love

where they've actually gotten over the

emotion they've already forgiven they're

like I'm totally cool I'm great you

great I'm great like so it's a side

effect of a change because if the

stronger the emotion we feel the more we

pay attention to that person uh where we

place our attention is where we place

our energy okay overcome the emotion you

no longer have your attention on that

person you're calling energy back to you

and you're building your own field and

there's energy now to heal there's

energy Now to create there's energy now

for the mystical experience and so you

can't do that if you're feeling

frustrated or if you're feeling Ang

anger if you're feeling resentment

you'll always hold the grudge you have

to convert you have to teach a person

how to get into that elevated State and

the side effect of that is forgiveness

it's not something that you have to do

it's just something that automatically

happens when we think about forgiving

people that have wronged us our dad when

we were younger that person at work you

the the boss that fired us or even

something that happened that

significantly worse it almost feels like

a justification or an acceptance of what

happened to us which makes it feel like

there's an injustice in the world like

if I forgive that person I'm letting

them off yeah do you think we should

always forgive everybody in all

circumstances yeah I think so I mean

because I mean you free yourself the

only way you're going to free yourself

from that person uh or from that past

experience is for you to literally

overcome the emotion

so um God we've all had people do really

horrible things and we've probably done

some horrible things the people as well

um but I don't think you can free

yourself or free them unless you decide

that um you know love is going to be the

thing that heals it and and God so many

people do it in our work and and the

side effect of it is that they they they

have wonderful effects in their lives

many times just healing there is a

chronic stress in society that seems to

be going in One Direction it seems to be

going up and up and up and I was

wondering if that ties into the subject

of burdens we're carrying from our past

that are keeping us elevated in ways

that are suboptimal yeah well I God I

mean what a crazy time to be alive right

now I mean there are so many things

happening in such a short amount of time

I mean it's almost overwhelming every

day there's something

happening and you know so living in

stress is living in survival the problem

with the stress hormones is that the

arousal that's created from the stress

hormones causes us uh to move into these

higher brain wave States called beta

brain wave states were aroused and the

arousal causes us to pay attention

primarily to all the things in our outer

world the arousal causes us to put our

attention on our body it causes us to

obsess and think about time and so uh

people get stuck in these uh High brain

wave States and I think the big

challenge is is if you understand that

stress is when you're knocked out of

homeostasis when your brain and body are

knocked out of balance then your

response or your reaction to people or

circumstances in your life that you're

chronically feeling on a regular basis

is actually weakening the organism

because when you turn on that emergency

system the fight ORF flight nervous

system because of the hormones of stress

and you move your body out of balance

and it has no time to recover and turn

back to balance now you're headed for

disease because no organism can live in

emergency mode for that extended period

of time the arousal creates a rush of

energy and people become

addicted to the stress hormones they

become addicted to those

emotions and so that now they need the

people and the conditions and the

circumstances and their life to reaffirm

their addiction to the emotion they need

the bad job they need the bad

relationship they need the traffic they

need the news uh just so that they can

stay uh in that emotional state so then

75 to 90% of every person that walks

into a healthcare facility in the

Western World walks in because of

emotional or psychological stress that's

the number one thing so our emotional

response uh to the conditions in our

life then becomes the important element

so people think oh my god um when I'm

emotional I I can't control my emotions

and turns out you can regulate it turns

out you can uh shorten the response uh

period from from emotions and it takes

practice right so uh you could take the

you could have the most ketogenic vegan

organic uh peptide you know whatever

intermittent fasting diet and you could

do yoga and you can do cardio and you

can do hit training and um you know

foundation training and

whatever uh get massage you know

acupuncture but if you're an emotional

wreck and you can't you know if there's

three types of stress physical chemical

and emotional then there's three types

of balance physical chemical and

emotional if you if you got your body in

physical balance and chemical balance

and you're not putting it in emotional

balance these these will never stop day

um so then the important part important

element then is teaching people how to

shorten the refractory period of their

emotional responses and catch themselves

when they're feeling those emotions and

change it and not rely on anything

outside of them to do it a video game or

a drug or whatever people do teach them

that they have the tools to do it

themselves and if they understand that

they're addicted to those emotions I've

seen this thousands of times there's

always an aha moment like

I'm addicted to anger really oh my God

maybe I am now the moment you recognize

that oh my God I'm using that person to

reaffirm my addiction to anger oh my God

like I don't want to I don't want to

feel anger okay well an addiction is

something that you think you can't stop

an addiction is uh doing something that

you know isn't good for you and you're

doing it anyway right so these emotions

are addictive then I'm going to probably

go through withdrawals I've probably

overdosed a few times I've probably had

a couple bad trips okay so let me get

really clear like how am I going to

change this so if to change is to be

greater than your body your environment

and time when you live in stress and you

live in survival all your attention is

on your body your environment and time

it means when we're living in stress

it's really hard to change MH because

it's not a time to change it's time to

run fight and hide right so so teaching

people how to break those emotional

addictions um is the side effect of that is called Joy a person is no longer

is called Joy a person is no longer tormenting their body in keeping it out

tormenting their body in keeping it out of balance and many people who heal in

of balance and many people who heal in this work they don't say oh I'm going to

this work they don't say oh I'm going to I'm going to heal this health condition

I'm going to heal this health condition they'll say the first thing I'm going to

they'll say the first thing I'm going to do and this is the majority of them is

do and this is the majority of them is I'm going to work on getting my body

I'm going to work on getting my body back into homeostasis like I'm going to

back into homeostasis like I'm going to work on regulating my emotional states

work on regulating my emotional states I'm not going to react in this way I'm

I'm not going to react in this way I'm not going to respond this

not going to respond this way that's the work right there is

way that's the work right there is breaking those emotional addictions so

breaking those emotional addictions so that we can move out of survival uh and

that we can move out of survival uh and in survival it's not a time to create in

in survival it's not a time to create in survival it's not a time to meditate

survival it's not a time to meditate it's not a time to close your eyes and

it's not a time to close your eyes and go within you'd be eaten it's not a time

go within you'd be eaten it's not a time to be vulnerable it's not a time to open

to be vulnerable it's not a time to open your heart right and yet we got to work

your heart right and yet we got to work with our bodies and be able to to

with our bodies and be able to to recondition them to a new mind and and

recondition them to a new mind and and so a lot of the work that we do

so a lot of the work that we do especially during this time in history

especially during this time in history where everybody's feeling the the um the

where everybody's feeling the the um the pressure the environmental pressure of

pressure the environmental pressure of stress is to give people the tools to be

stress is to give people the tools to be able to self-regulate and when I mean

able to self-regulate and when I mean self-regulate that means move from one

self-regulate that means move from one emotional state to another emotional

emotional state to another emotional state and it's not bad that we react we

state and it's not bad that we react we all react I react but the question is

all react I react but the question is how long like how long are you going to

how long like how long are you going to react for because um if you keep doing

react for because um if you keep doing it uh for months or years It ultimately

it uh for months or years It ultimately becomes your personality right yeah and

becomes your personality right yeah and it has a big impact on your immune

it has a big impact on your immune system I've noticed that when I'm in a

system I've noticed that when I'm in a state of prolonged reaction negative

state of prolonged reaction negative reaction to something it only takes a

reaction to something it only takes a couple more days for me to get a flu or

couple more days for me to get a flu or a cold or something and I H like because

a cold or something and I H like because I don't get sick often so I think I get

I don't get sick often so I think I get sick kind of like I am now maybe twice a

sick kind of like I am now maybe twice a year and so it's very easy it's almost

year and so it's very easy it's almost like a shock and then it's very easy for

like a shock and then it's very easy for me to trace my steps and see what

me to trace my steps and see what brought me here so this happened my

brought me here so this happened my response was

response was this 8 days later I felt my immune

this 8 days later I felt my immune system go cuz I get sick so rarely it's

system go cuz I get sick so rarely it's so unbelievably clear what happened to

so unbelievably clear what happened to me there's no like oh I I touched

me there's no like oh I I touched something and then the germs got in my

something and then the germs got in my mouth for me it's so clear in my life so

mouth for me it's so clear in my life so yeah that's kind of what I I want to do

yeah that's kind of what I I want to do is I want to stop that happening yeah

is I want to stop that happening yeah well look how old are you I'm 32 32 my

well look how old are you I'm 32 32 my God you're doing great I mean if you

God you're doing great I mean if you figure this out now by the time you're

figure this out now by the time you're 40 you'll you'll have it mastered um so

40 you'll you'll have it mastered um so we did a study where we had people stop

we did a study where we had people stop feeling survival

feeling survival emotions uh for 3 days and have them

emotions uh for 3 days and have them practice feeling elevated emotions

practice feeling elevated emotions heart- centered emotions we measured uh

heart- centered emotions we measured uh a chemical called IGA immunoglobuline a

a chemical called IGA immunoglobuline a it's your body's natural flu shot it's

it's your body's natural flu shot it's actually better than a flu shot and uh

actually better than a flu shot and uh and so we measured people's IGA levels

and so we measured people's IGA levels at the beginning of this time and then

at the beginning of this time and then we measured them at the end at the end

we measured them at the end at the end of 3 Days by trading those limited

of 3 Days by trading those limited emotions for more elevated emotions

emotions for more elevated emotions their IG a levels went up 50% 50% so so

their IG a levels went up 50% 50% so so when you're feeling an elevated emotion

when you're feeling an elevated emotion the body is so objective that it's

the body is so objective that it's believing it's living in an nurturing

believing it's living in an nurturing and loving environment if the

and loving environment if the environment signals the Gene and it does

environment signals the Gene and it does and the end product of an experience in

and the end product of an experience in the environment is an emotion that

the environment is an emotion that person is signaling genes ahead of the

person is signaling genes ahead of the environment that's and now the body is

environment that's and now the body is going to make globulins which are

going to make globulins which are proteins that are going to create more

proteins that are going to create more internal defense and uh uh uh and less

internal defense and uh uh uh and less and less uh attention on external

and less uh attention on external defense so the immune system then which

defense so the immune system then which is the internal protection system begins

is the internal protection system begins to move back into order if you're

to move back into order if you're looking to take the next step in your

strong routine because then when the winds blow

routine because then when the winds blow at least I'm anchored by something yeah

at least I'm anchored by something yeah I try to avoid that word because I think

I try to avoid that word because I think it conjures up a lot of beliefs for

it conjures up a lot of beliefs for people I I think I I'd like to say if

people I I think I I'd like to say if you can set aside a certain amount of

you can set aside a certain amount of time for yourself just for yourself to

time for yourself just for yourself to be alone with yourself and for me um my

be alone with yourself and for me um my routine is to have two hours in the

routine is to have two hours in the morning that's just my time like that's

morning that's just my time like that's my time where I'm going to get my brain

my time where I'm going to get my brain and body right it's a time where I'm

and body right it's a time where I'm going to think about the things I have

going to think about the things I have to do in the day and how I'm going to to

to do in the day and how I'm going to to be in my in my day get that all clear

be in my in my day get that all clear then I do my meditation and my

then I do my meditation and my meditation is really uh for me to

meditation is really uh for me to overcome myself uh and change and then

overcome myself uh and change and then create and I you know I don't care if

create and I you know I don't care if you do it in the morning or in the

you do it in the morning or in the evening I'm a morning person I've always

evening I'm a morning person I've always been a morning person I have friends

been a morning person I have friends that are that are artists and musicians

that are that are artists and musicians even my kids they're just more even

even my kids they're just more even evening people they just they're

evening people they just they're creative so they like the evening

creative so they like the evening doesn't matter to me I just pick a time

doesn't matter to me I just pick a time in your day where you can think about

in your day where you can think about who you want to be and who you no longer

who you want to be and who you no longer want to be and think about what you're

want to be and think about what you're going to change and and you know always

going to change and and you know always make a little room for the unknown which

make a little room for the unknown which is the fun part and and get creative

is the fun part and and get creative yeah and so and our that's one of the

yeah and so and our that's one of the things I'm proud of in in our community

things I'm proud of in in our community I'm really proud of the fact that people

I'm really proud of the fact that people do the work like everybody does the work

do the work like everybody does the work it's not like I have to make them do it

it's not like I have to make them do it and when I ask them like why like why do

and when I ask them like why like why do you do it every day aside from the

you do it every day aside from the majority of saying it makes me feel

majority of saying it makes me feel better they typically say I don't want

better they typically say I don't want the magic to end like there's too many

the magic to end like there's too many good things too many good things going

good things too many good things going on in my life like I want to keep doing

on in my life like I want to keep doing this it's working for me so it's kind of

this it's working for me so it's kind of not like I have to it's a want to you

not like I have to it's a want to you talked earlier on about brain heart

talked earlier on about brain heart coherence it's a term that I've not

coherence it's a term that I've not heard before I didn't know that there

heard before I didn't know that there was a connection between my brain and my

was a connection between my brain and my heart oh there's a definite connection

heart oh there's a definite connection between your brain and heart yeah so we

between your brain and heart yeah so we were so fascinated this was uh February

were so fascinated this was uh February of 2020 I'll never forget it we we

of 2020 I'll never forget it we we started and our when we were doing our

started and our when we were doing our electroencephalograms you know our brain

electroencephalograms you know our brain studies um we we put a a cardiac lead

studies um we we put a a cardiac lead from the heart uh uh to the machine and

from the heart uh uh to the machine and we started looking at HRV in comparison

we started looking at HRV in comparison to brain waves and coherence is rhythm

to brain waves and coherence is rhythm right so when waves are kind of moving

right so when waves are kind of moving in Rhythm like this you can you can see

in Rhythm like this you can you can see that on the brain scan right they're

that on the brain scan right they're these yeah they're very orderly they're

these yeah they're very orderly they're very rhythmic like that so so if you

very rhythmic like that so so if you think of waves that are Co

think of waves that are Co coherent being very orderly and being

coherent being very orderly and being very rhythmic

very rhythmic um when they're when they're out of

um when they're when they're out of order like choppy and they different

order like choppy and they different parts of the brain are in different

parts of the brain are in different rhythms that's when the brain's

rhythms that's when the brain's incoherent right and and so when we

incoherent right and and so when we started looking at um training people

started looking at um training people how to broaden their awareness to sense

how to broaden their awareness to sense space when you're sensing space the act

space when you're sensing space the act of sensing and feeling causes you to

of sensing and feeling causes you to stop analyzing and thinking and if

stop analyzing and thinking and if you're not analyzing and thinking you

you're not analyzing and thinking you start suppressing neocortical activity

start suppressing neocortical activity your brain waves start to slow down in

your brain waves start to slow down in beta you know you're aware that you're a

beta you know you're aware that you're a body local in space and time that's

body local in space and time that's low-level beta like we're talking right

low-level beta like we're talking right now we're in low-level beta if I said

now we're in low-level beta if I said Stephen I'm going to give you a quiz um

Stephen I'm going to give you a quiz um and you're going to have to take the

and you're going to have to take the quiz in front of your audience and you

quiz in front of your audience and you would kind of perk up a little bit your

would kind of perk up a little bit your brain would get a little bit more

brain would get a little bit more aroused and the light bulb would get a

aroused and the light bulb would get a little brighter and You' move into

little brighter and You' move into mid-range Vader that's like when you're

mid-range Vader that's like when you're going to give a speech or you're at a

going to give a speech or you're at a dinner and you don't know people you're

dinner and you don't know people you're kind of you kind of be a little bit more

kind of you kind of be a little bit more aware just for people that can't see

aware just for people that can't see this because they might be listening on

this because they might be listening on audio so beta is uh conscious awareness

audio so beta is uh conscious awareness now in beta the the brain is trying to

now in beta the the brain is trying to create meaning between what's going on

create meaning between what's going on in the outer world and what's going on

in the outer world and what's going on in the inner world and it's processing

in the inner world and it's processing all the sensory information so a lot of

all the sensory information so a lot of data so beta is like conscious and awake

data so beta is like conscious and awake and so there's low-level beta there's

and so there's low-level beta there's mid-range beta it's not on this chart

mid-range beta it's not on this chart but high level beta is when you're

but high level beta is when you're fearful when you're anxious when you're

fearful when you're anxious when you're angry when you're in pain when you're

angry when you're in pain when you're frustrated when you're jealous whatever

frustrated when you're jealous whatever uh people get switched on in these high

uh people get switched on in these high levels of beta and that's when we get

levels of beta and that's when we get overfocused you ever been under stressed

overfocused you ever been under stressed and you start over focusing that's

and you start over focusing that's because you're you're you're narrowing

because you're you're you're narrowing your focus and you're over focusing and

your focus and you're over focusing and that's kind of a brain State and so when

that's kind of a brain State and so when you broaden your awareness and instead

you broaden your awareness and instead of narrow your focus on something

of narrow your focus on something physical or material that's what the

physical or material that's what the stress hormones do but if you broaden

stress hormones do but if you broaden your awareness and you sense space and

your awareness and you sense space and you this act of sensing causes you to no

you this act of sensing causes you to no longer analyze and think and your brain

longer analyze and think and your brain waves start to move into Alpha now in

waves start to move into Alpha now in Alpha which is this brain wave is a

Alpha which is this brain wave is a slower brain wave state that's the

slower brain wave state that's the creative state of the brain the brain

creative state of the brain the brain sees more in pictures more in images

sees more in pictures more in images it's more imaginary right in beta

it's more imaginary right in beta there's a voice talking to you in the

there's a voice talking to you in the back of your head all the time saying

back of your head all the time saying this is right and this is wrong you got

this is right and this is wrong you got this to do you got that to do that's the

this to do you got that to do that's the critic kind of in our brain when you

critic kind of in our brain when you when you get Beyond beta brain waves and

when you get Beyond beta brain waves and you move into Alpha you start opening

you move into Alpha you start opening the door between the conscious mind and

the door between the conscious mind and the subconscious mind now we're not just

the subconscious mind now we're not just looking for any type of alpha but we're

looking for any type of alpha but we're looking for coherent Alpha so we want

looking for coherent Alpha so we want all those compartments that we're firing

all those compartments that we're firing in different rhythms and different

in different rhythms and different frequencies all of a sudden start doing

frequencies all of a sudden start doing this so now the whole entire brain

this so now the whole entire brain starts moving into what's called Global

starts moving into what's called Global coherence now when the brain starts

coherence now when the brain starts synchronizing like that what sinks in

synchronizing like that what sinks in the brain starts to link in the brain

the brain starts to link in the brain and the whole brain starts to fire as

and the whole brain starts to fire as one neurological Network and that's what

one neurological Network and that's what our data shows now that's not the end

our data shows now that's not the end that's just when you're moving into an

that's just when you're moving into an imaginary State and people do this but

imaginary State and people do this but but a lot of people move into Alpha but

but a lot of people move into Alpha but it's not coherent so we're looking for a

it's not coherent so we're looking for a coherent Alpha

coherent Alpha now many of the people that are

now many of the people that are meditating really well they can relax

meditating really well they can relax their body so well and they can feel so

their body so well and they can feel so safe that their body moves into a light

safe that their body moves into a light rest or a light sleep while they're

rest or a light sleep while they're still awake so it's relaxed and awake in

still awake so it's relaxed and awake in that realm you're in a hypnotic State

that realm you're in a hypnotic State you're in feta brain waves and in Theta

you're in feta brain waves and in Theta now lights are shut out in the thinking

now lights are shut out in the thinking Neo cortest that plugs us into

Neo cortest that plugs us into three-dimensional reality the identity

three-dimensional reality the identity is gone the character is gone there's no

is gone the character is gone there's no activity there now the door between the

activity there now the door between the conscious mind and the subconscious mind

conscious mind and the subconscious mind is wide open to information and now

is wide open to information and now we're suggestible to information and now

we're suggestible to information and now we're in the operating system we can get

we're in the operating system we can get in the subconscious mind and rewrite a

in the subconscious mind and rewrite a program we could rehearse a new script

program we could rehearse a new script we can tell a new story instead of the

we can tell a new story instead of the story of the past we can tell the story

story of the past we can tell the story of our future and we can Pro program our

of our future and we can Pro program our subconscious mind and our autonomic

subconscious mind and our autonomic nervous system to begin to change our

nervous system to begin to change our biology now go too far past Theta and

biology now go too far past Theta and you fall into Delta and now lights are

you fall into Delta and now lights are out you're in a catatonic State and

out you're in a catatonic State and you're unconscious right and so we kind

you're unconscious right and so we kind of do this when we go to bed at night we

of do this when we go to bed at night we go from beta to Alpha Theta to Delta and

go from beta to Alpha Theta to Delta and if you're under stress and you're in

if you're under stress and you're in high beta you can't sleep and you can't

high beta you can't sleep and you can't sleep because you're thinking right and

sleep because you're thinking right and you can't drop through brain waves when

you can't drop through brain waves when you wake up in the morning you go from

you wake up in the morning you go from Delta to the Theta to Alpha to Beta

Delta to the Theta to Alpha to Beta right so there's two times that the door

right so there's two times that the door between the conscious mind and the

between the conscious mind and the subconscious mind opens up okay what

subconscious mind opens up okay what does this have to do with brain and

does this have to do with brain and heart coherence well in Theta when a

heart coherence well in Theta when a person is in that state where their

person is in that state where their attention is on their

attention is on their heart and energy is in their heart it's

heart and energy is in their heart it's natural for the heart to tell the brain

natural for the heart to tell the brain to get creative it's time to imagine

to get creative it's time to imagine it's time to fall in love with a future

it's time to fall in love with a future now the heart is the creative center

now the heart is the creative center right right it's the it's the part of

right right it's the it's the part of the our biology that that allows the

the our biology that that allows the brain to begin the frontal lobe to begin

brain to begin the frontal lobe to begin to create so you get the heart and the

to create so you get the heart and the Brain kind of working together the more

Brain kind of working together the more relaxed you get in your heart the more

relaxed you get in your heart the more awake you get in the brain Something

awake you get in the brain Something Beautiful happens in the brain if the

Beautiful happens in the brain if the person can sustain this and they're in

person can sustain this and they're in that Theta State Theta becomes the

that Theta State Theta becomes the carrier wave and right within the brain

carrier wave and right within the brain you start to see Alpha Waves building on

you start to see Alpha Waves building on theta waves and then alpha waves in

theta waves and then alpha waves in harmonics into beta waves and harmonics

harmonics into beta waves and harmonics into high beta and then High beta

into high beta and then High beta ultimately into gamma and now the person

ultimately into gamma and now the person is

is relaxed and very awake because gamma is

relaxed and very awake because gamma is superconsciousness it is super awareness

superconsciousness it is super awareness so the the formula of being relaxed and

so the the formula of being relaxed and awake and synchronizing your heart to

awake and synchronizing your heart to your brain causes the brain to move into

your brain causes the brain to move into a state of what's called resonance and

a state of what's called resonance and resonance is when you have w waves on

resonance is when you have w waves on top of waves harmonics and the Brain

top of waves harmonics and the Brain starts functioning in a more resonance

starts functioning in a more resonance State sometimes even people have Delta

State sometimes even people have Delta as the base carrying Theta and Theta

as the base carrying Theta and Theta carrying Alpha and Alpha carrying beta

carrying Alpha and Alpha carrying beta to high beta to gamma and they're all

to high beta to gamma and they're all waves within waves and as those waves

waves within waves and as those waves come together if they're if they're

come together if they're if they're coherent they interfere and create a

coherent they interfere and create a bigger wave and then those waves come

bigger wave and then those waves come together and they interfere and they

together and they interfere and they create bigger waves and that's exactly

create bigger waves and that's exactly how the energy in the brain goes up so

how the energy in the brain goes up so we have brain scans of people who whose

we have brain scans of people who whose gamma brain waves are 200 300 400

gamma brain waves are 200 300 400 standard deviations outside of normal

standard deviations outside of normal I'm going give you an idea three

I'm going give you an idea three standard deviations outside of normal is

standard deviations outside of normal is 2% of the population so they're they're

2% of the population so they're they're processing an enormous amount of energy

processing an enormous amount of energy in their brain and it feels really good

in their brain and it feels really good really good so we practice a lot

really good so we practice a lot synchronizing the heart to the brain if

synchronizing the heart to the brain if you do like MDMA or something does that

you do like MDMA or something does that put you into some of these brain waves

put you into some of these brain waves I'm wondering if any psychedelics are

I'm wondering if any psychedelics are inducing of these states we're going to

inducing of these states we're going to do a comparative study actually um this

do a comparative study actually um this year with psychedelics and meditation I

year with psychedelics and meditation I can I can answer that question more

can I can answer that question more definitively what we do know from fmri

definitively what we do know from fmri studies with

studies with psilocybin is that the default mode

psilocybin is that the default mode Network in the brain the one I was

Network in the brain the one I was talking about earlier that's always the

talking about earlier that's always the brain's

brain's predictor that that shuts off in a in a

predictor that that shuts off in a in a with with a psilocybin and that's

with with a psilocybin and that's exactly what we see in our our our

exactly what we see in our our our Advanced meditators and our fmis

Advanced meditators and our fmis that those people that are having a

that those people that are having a mystical experience right in the

mystical experience right in the MRI looks like they're taking psilocybin

MRI looks like they're taking psilocybin the same exact the same exact brain

the same exact the same exact brain circuits are turned off on this um Theta

circuits are turned off on this um Theta wave you talking about how that's really

wave you talking about how that's really where a lot of the reprogramming can

where a lot of the reprogramming can happen so do I need to be in that state

happen so do I need to be in that state and then be exposed to some kind of

and then be exposed to some kind of stimulus sound good question good

stimulus sound good question good question um well I'll answer in three

question um well I'll answer in three ways first way is when you're conscious

ways first way is when you're conscious in your subconscious mind and you're

in your subconscious mind and you're trained to imagine whatever it is that

trained to imagine whatever it is that you want you're going to begin to Signal

you want you're going to begin to Signal your autonomic nervous system to start

your autonomic nervous system to start manufacturing chemicals equal to your

manufacturing chemicals equal to your intention in other words the intention

intention in other words the intention of whatever you're thinking about acts

of whatever you're thinking about acts as information that begins to change

as information that begins to change your biology so Theta is a great way to

your biology so Theta is a great way to open up the door

open up the door we also use Theta um when we want to

we also use Theta um when we want to program people because it's a hypnotic

program people because it's a hypnotic state to a mystical experience and if

state to a mystical experience and if they're in that state remember when

they're in that state remember when you're suggestible you accept believe

you're suggestible you accept believe and surrender to information as if it's

and surrender to information as if it's the truth without analyzing it and

the truth without analyzing it and that's what programs people's biology

that's what programs people's biology right so you can program somebody into

right so you can program somebody into believing they need a drug and you can

believing they need a drug and you can program somebody to believing in just

program somebody to believing in just about anything but you could also

about anything but you could also program them for a mystical experience

program them for a mystical experience and that's what we do now so we can do

and that's what we do now so we can do that by giving them information when

that by giving them information when they're in that hypnotic state they're

they're in that hypnotic state they're very suggestible but we're only going to

very suggestible but we're only going to do it in a way that's going to be

do it in a way that's going to be beneficial to them and then the Third

beneficial to them and then the Third Way is something that we really

Way is something that we really discovered that we weren't

discovered that we weren't expecting let's see how I can say this

expecting let's see how I can say this and make it

and make it simple um there's particle and wave

simple um there's particle and wave there's matter and energy and so if your

there's matter and energy and so if your all of your attention is on this

all of your attention is on this three-dimensional World um you're you're

three-dimensional World um you're you're unaware of energy so have a person close

unaware of energy so have a person close their eyes and take their attention off

their eyes and take their attention off of everything physical everything

of everything physical everything material everything known and go from a

material everything known and go from a narrow Focus to a broadened focus and as

narrow Focus to a broadened focus and as they sense the space they're actually

they sense the space they're actually putting their attention on that

putting their attention on that invisible field of energy that exists

invisible field of energy that exists beyond our senses the quantum field

beyond our senses the quantum field right and that field is carrying an

right and that field is carrying an enormous amount of information so when a

enormous amount of information so when a person moves into Theta and I ask them

person moves into Theta and I ask them to open their awareness if they're in a

to open their awareness if they're in a certain range of theta we can just about

certain range of theta we can just about predict 100% of the time that that

predict 100% of the time that that person is going to connect to

person is going to connect to information now not information coming

information now not information coming from their senses like a hypnotist could

from their senses like a hypnotist could put you in a trans and Theta and give

put you in a trans and Theta and give you suggestions and you could program

you suggestions and you could program you but you're still in the same state

you but you're still in the same state that hypnotic state but your eyes are

that hypnotic state but your eyes are closed there's music playing in the

closed there's music playing in the background you're not eating you're not

background you're not eating you're not tasting you're not smelling you're not

tasting you're not smelling you're not feeling with your body but you're still

feeling with your body but you're still suggestible to information there's only

suggestible to information there's only one other place you can find information

one other place you can find information and that's

and that's frequency and frequency carries

frequency and frequency carries information so when a person starts to

information so when a person starts to connect to energy to frequency and the

connect to energy to frequency and the thinking neocortex is dialed down the

thinking neocortex is dialed down the moment they connect to that energy and

moment they connect to that energy and frequency the brain goes into these very

frequency the brain goes into these very very high states of gamma brain wave

very high states of gamma brain wave patterns they're connecting to a greater

patterns they're connecting to a greater level of energy a greater level of order

level of energy a greater level of order and they arousal that's felt when they

and they arousal that's felt when they have this

have this connection which is normally typically

connection which is normally typically fear or anger or pain the arousal is

fear or anger or pain the arousal is ecstasy the arousal is bliss that's the

ecstasy the arousal is bliss that's the they say I don't have the words to

they say I don't have the words to describe the feeling that I just had

describe the feeling that I just had right so they're dipping Closer To

right so they're dipping Closer To Source they're dipping closer to a

Source they're dipping closer to a greater energy and frequency and it's

greater energy and frequency and it's being reflected in their biology when we

being reflected in their biology when we see people move into these elegant

see people move into these elegant states of high gamma it's primarily in

states of high gamma it's primarily in their autonomic nervous system it's very

their autonomic nervous system it's very fast and it's very coherent now if

fast and it's very coherent now if stress is autonomic

stress is autonomic disregulation and they're functioning in

disregulation and they're functioning in a very very high energetic state in

a very very high energetic state in their autonomic nervous system coherent

their autonomic nervous system coherent gamma brain waves then there's an

gamma brain waves then there's an enormous amount of autonomic regulation

enormous amount of autonomic regulation and the autonomic nervous system

and the autonomic nervous system controls and coordinates all other

controls and coordinates all other systems now watch watch out because now

systems now watch watch out because now the tuning fork is sending information

the tuning fork is sending information to every cell and tissue and organ in

to every cell and tissue and organ in the body and when people move into these

the body and when people move into these states many times when they come back

states many times when they come back they get a biological upgrade somehow

they get a biological upgrade somehow Energy starts to inform matter and the

Energy starts to inform matter and the whole body is lifted by light by lifted

whole body is lifted by light by lifted by frequency when we when we draw the

by frequency when we when we draw the blood from people who who have these

blood from people who who have these kind of moments we look for information

kind of moments we look for information in the blood

in the blood there's information in the blood that

there's information in the blood that we've discovered that stops the covid

we've discovered that stops the covid virus from entering the cell we've

virus from entering the cell we've isolated the protein that inhibits the

isolated the protein that inhibits the virus from entering the cell in other

virus from entering the cell in other words we've done the studies called

words we've done the studies called adoptive transfers we've taken Advanced

adoptive transfers we've taken Advanced meditators blood and we've put it in U a

meditators blood and we've put it in U a culture with A2 receptors cells that

culture with A2 receptors cells that have A2 receptors and then expose the A2

have A2 receptors and then expose the A2 receptor to the to a pseudovirus like a

receptor to the to a pseudovirus like a CO virus

CO virus and in advanced meditators we noticed

and in advanced meditators we noticed that the virus couldn't enter the cell

that the virus couldn't enter the cell it was stuck to the outside of the cell

it was stuck to the outside of the cell and we isolated a protein in the

and we isolated a protein in the advanced meditator blood that inhibits

advanced meditator blood that inhibits the virus from entering the

the virus from entering the cell those people that have those

cell those people that have those transcendental moments as I said 84% of

transcendental moments as I said 84% of them 84% of them have information in

them 84% of them have information in their blood that causes the

their blood that causes the mitochondrial function and glycolytic

mitochondrial function and glycolytic function in cancer cells to shut off

function in cancer cells to shut off there's information in the blood for

there's information in the blood for neurogenesis uh for um the microbiome

neurogenesis uh for um the microbiome completely changed at the end of 7 Days

completely changed at the end of 7 Days completely different microbiome uh

completely different microbiome uh without changing their diet at all

without changing their diet at all they're still eating the same food but

they're still eating the same food but they're not the same person right

they're not the same person right there's some kind of change that creates

there's some kind of change that creates a lot of probiotic microbes I remember

a lot of probiotic microbes I remember reading a study of um whm Hof the ican

reading a study of um whm Hof the ican where they injected him with a virus and

where they injected him with a virus and I think they injected other people with

I think they injected other people with the virus and through his breath work

the virus and through his breath work and meditations and whatever else he did

and meditations and whatever else he did the virus didn't infect him but it

the virus didn't infect him but it infected the other people and then I

infected the other people and then I think in the study they he trained other

think in the study they he trained other people to be able to reject the virus as

people to be able to reject the virus as well and all of this kind of sounds a

well and all of this kind of sounds a little bit woooo to the average person

little bit woooo to the average person because to think that you can do

because to think that you can do something to prevent a virus infecting

something to prevent a virus infecting you I mean it blows the doors open to

you I mean it blows the doors open to like personal responsibility and yes of

like personal responsibility and yes of course you know which is yeah troubling

course you know which is yeah troubling for people I think yeah well we

for people I think yeah well we published the paper um it got published

published the paper um it got published in a scientific journal um people can

in a scientific journal um people can see it online um well if you keep

see it online um well if you keep practicing being greater than your

practicing being greater than your environment you'll be greater than your

environment you'll be greater than your environment that's that's just how it is

environment that's that's just how it is in other words if your response to your

in other words if your response to your environment doesn't weaken you but

environment doesn't weaken you but strengthens you then the innate

strengthens you then the innate intelligence of your body will have an

intelligence of your body will have an intelligence that will cause you to be

intelligence that will cause you to be greater than your environment right down

greater than your environment right down to the microb and that is where you keep

to the microb and that is where you keep referencing the term advanced meditator

referencing the term advanced meditator cuz you don't say normal meditators well

cuz you don't say normal meditators well what I will say is I'll say well it's

what I will say is I'll say well it's kind of funny when I use that term I can

kind of funny when I use that term I can only use that term because many people

only use that term because many people that come to our weekl long Retreats

that come to our weekl long Retreats Stephen they're they're novices they've

Stephen they're they're novices they've never really meditated before their

never really meditated before their spouse or their boyfriend or girlfriend

spouse or their boyfriend or girlfriend brought them or their co-work or their

brought them or their co-work or their friend or you know they're just kind of

friend or you know they're just kind of like whatever you know I don't really

like whatever you know I don't really know what I'm getting myself

know what I'm getting myself into the novice meditator who just kind

into the novice meditator who just kind of practices a little bit that goes

of practices a little bit that goes through the immersive experience at the

through the immersive experience at the end of s days their brains look like

end of s days their brains look like Advanced meditators at the end of seven

Advanced meditators at the end of seven days their biology their blood values

days their biology their blood values look like they've been meditating for

look like they've been meditating for years in other words at the end of seven

years in other words at the end of seven days those Advanced medit those

days those Advanced medit those meditators that were novice meditators

meditators that were novice meditators that look like Advanced meditators are

that look like Advanced meditators are upregulating thousands of genes in their

upregulating thousands of genes in their biology to suggest that they're living

biology to suggest that they're living in a whole new life a whole new

in a whole new life a whole new environment and they're in a ballroom

environment and they're in a ballroom and there's nothing very stimulating

and there's nothing very stimulating about a ballroom so whatever they're

about a ballroom so whatever they're doing inside of them inside of

doing inside of them inside of themselves somehow is causing dramatic

themselves somehow is causing dramatic changes now we looked at we looked at a

changes now we looked at we looked at a group of people we looked at their

group of people we looked at their genotype and genes make proteins and

genotype and genes make proteins and your gene expression is different than

your gene expression is different than mine different than every single person

mine different than every single person so everybody has their own unique

so everybody has their own unique genotype which means they all make their

genotype which means they all make their own individual proteins at the end of

own individual proteins at the end of seven days when we looked at those

seven days when we looked at those meditators at the end of seven days

meditators at the end of seven days almost 80% of the

almost 80% of the population was making the same genes and

population was making the same genes and the same proteins they were signaling

the same proteins they were signaling the same genes and making the same

the same genes and making the same proteins what does that mean that means

proteins what does that mean that means when people behave in the same way

when people behave in the same way there's an emergent Consciousness that

there's an emergent Consciousness that comes forth that's reflected in people's

comes forth that's reflected in people's biology the flock the herd the tribe

biology the flock the herd the tribe everybody's evolving together

everybody's evolving together biologically at these Retreats these

biologically at these Retreats these 7-Day retreats one of the things I was

7-Day retreats one of the things I was pretty shocked by was the amount of time

pretty shocked by was the amount of time people spend

people spend meditating yeah how long do people spend

meditating yeah how long do people spend meditating and why is that

meditating and why is that important our events are a spiritual

important our events are a spiritual Rave I me that's the best way I can

Rave I me that's the best way I can describe it I mean we start at 6:00 in

describe it I mean we start at 6:00 in the morning and we finish at 700 or 8 at

the morning and we finish at 700 or 8 at night and the days go by extremely fast

night and the days go by extremely fast there's standing and walking meditations

there's standing and walking meditations we do sometimes four or five of them

we do sometimes four or five of them sometimes six at a weekl long event why

sometimes six at a weekl long event why because you got to embody you got to get

because you got to embody you got to get really good at doing it with your eyes

really good at doing it with your eyes open um we do laying down meditations

open um we do laying down meditations after we get people to a certain point

after we get people to a certain point where I know they're not going to fall

where I know they're not going to fall asleep when they lay down and so and

asleep when they lay down and so and then we do some big uh meditations that

then we do some big uh meditations that are that are a little bit more longer

are that are a little bit more longer but people are up and down the whole

but people are up and down the whole entire time none of the

entire time none of the meditations will ever be done without

meditations will ever be done without knowledge beforehand because knowledge

knowledge beforehand because knowledge is the precursor uh to the

is the precursor uh to the experience so so it's it's an immersive

experience so so it's it's an immersive experience um yeah turns out to be about

experience um yeah turns out to be about 35 hours of meditation when it's all

35 hours of meditation when it's all said and done but you ask anybody who

said and done but you ask anybody who does a weeklong event they'll say I'm so

does a weeklong event they'll say I'm so I have I can't wait to get back into my

I have I can't wait to get back into my life and start my practice because I

life and start my practice because I what I was doing when I got here was

what I was doing when I got here was nothing like I'm doing now right so now

nothing like I'm doing now right so now they're more equipped and really they're

they're more equipped and really they're they're kind of in a different body

they're kind of in a different body they're walking back into a new life and

they're walking back into a new life and you know they're they're not on the same

you know they're they're not on the same line of time any longer that's the

line of time any longer that's the experience that I can

experience that I can profess to be true in my own

profess to be true in my own relationship and life because my partner

relationship and life because my partner came back from the medit the meditations

came back from the medit the meditations she came back from the week in Miami

she came back from the week in Miami where she was doing the walking

where she was doing the walking meditations down the beach and so on and

meditations down the beach and so on and it didn't stop there in fact that was

it didn't stop there in fact that was really the start of her journey because

really the start of her journey because every morning now she has this new

every morning now she has this new routine where she meditates in the

routine where she meditates in the morning and no one's telling her to do

morning and no one's telling her to do that but clearly the benefit has been so

that but clearly the benefit has been so great for her that that she's continued

great for her that that she's continued the the the practice and she does it

the the the practice and she does it every day it's I'm like I'm so amazed by

every day it's I'm like I'm so amazed by it because it takes a

it because it takes a there must like it takes a certain I was

there must like it takes a certain I was going to say the word discipline but

going to say the word discipline but it's not discipline because if you're so

it's not discipline because if you're so clear on the the benefit of an action

clear on the the benefit of an action you don't necessarily need like

you don't necessarily need like discipline it's just clearly done so

discipline it's just clearly done so much for her that she's continued to do

much for her that she's continued to do it thereafter and it's funny because

it thereafter and it's funny because obviously she she came back from it I

obviously she she came back from it I was supposed to attend I had a Visa

was supposed to attend I had a Visa issue she came back from it and told me

issue she came back from it and told me about the process and her recounting it

about the process and her recounting it like objectively you go God that must

like objectively you go God that must have been hard and uncomfortable or that

have been hard and uncomfortable or that must have been whatever but her

must have been whatever but her experience was very much the opposite it

experience was very much the opposite it was joyous it was filling she came back

was joyous it was filling she came back so unbelievably obsessed with this new

so unbelievably obsessed with this new set of sort of systems and information

set of sort of systems and information that could better her life and it's

that could better her life and it's really it's really profound like you can

really it's really profound like you can hear it on a podcast but then when you

hear it on a podcast but then when you kind of witness it in someone someone

kind of witness it in someone someone you know well in love it's incredibly

you know well in love it's incredibly persuasive yeah well that I mean that's

persuasive yeah well that I mean that's what I want I want people to walk out

what I want I want people to walk out into their life and not say you need to

into their life and not say you need to shorten the refractory period of your

shorten the refractory period of your emotional responses you need to forgive

emotional responses you need to forgive you need to get your brain or heart

you need to get your brain or heart coherent I don't I don't want anybody in

coherent I don't I don't want anybody in my work to do that I want them to walk

my work to do that I want them to walk out into the world and be the example so

out into the world and be the example so so much so that people go what what's

so much so that people go what what's what's what's up with you you're

what's what's up with you you're different like I you know you're you

different like I you know you're you seem different you know what is it you

seem different you know what is it you know and that's when I think the real

know and that's when I think the real conversation starts

conversation starts so that's a that's that it's

so that's a that's that it's instrumental when it becomes

instrumental when it becomes instrumental and you apply it to your

instrumental and you apply it to your life and it's working for you is it's

life and it's working for you is it's not a have to as I said it's something

not a have to as I said it's something that you really enjoy doing and uh wow

that you really enjoy doing and uh wow what what a crazy Sovereign idea that

what what a crazy Sovereign idea that you could actually make yourself happy

you could actually make yourself happy what a crazy idea when you when you hit

what a crazy idea when you when you hit those gamma moments where you feel a

those gamma moments where you feel a level of love you have never felt in

level of love you have never felt in your entire life by connecting the

your entire life by connecting the source which is pure love and you stop

source which is pure love and you stop looking for it outside of you you start

looking for it outside of you you start realizing it's within you that's a big

realizing it's within you that's a big moment right because then you won't you

moment right because then you won't you won't need anybody or anything that's

won't need anybody or anything that's that's Freedom that's unconditional love

that's Freedom that's unconditional love right you'll get out of want use that

right you'll get out of want use that that time a few times yeah yeah I mean

that time a few times yeah yeah I mean like like want like we we've been

like like want like we we've been trained to create based on lack that's

trained to create based on lack that's what we do in threedimensional reality

what we do in threedimensional reality in threedimensional reality you see

in threedimensional reality you see someone that that has a sports car and

someone that that has a sports car and you don't have one and you like that

you don't have one and you like that sports car all of a sudden you want that

sports car all of a sudden you want that sports car your brain starts creating

sports car your brain starts creating based on lack of of not having it you

based on lack of of not having it you see a someone in a scarf and you like

see a someone in a scarf and you like that scarf and next thing you know

that scarf and next thing you know you're wearing that scarf your brain

you're wearing that scarf your brain imagines you having it right but the way

imagines you having it right but the way we get it in threedimensional reality is

we get it in threedimensional reality is we have to do something this is the

we have to do something this is the plane of demonstration so then when we

plane of demonstration so then when we finally get the scarf and we finally get

finally get the scarf and we finally get the car the experience of getting the

the car the experience of getting the car produces the emotion that takes away

car produces the emotion that takes away the lack or separation of not having it

the lack or separation of not having it so some people spend their whole life in

so some people spend their whole life in lack waiting for the thing to come

lack waiting for the thing to come around to take away the the feeling of

around to take away the the feeling of lack or separation right my message is

lack or separation right my message is not that my message is actually to

not that my message is actually to create in a different way in such a way

create in a different way in such a way that you feel like it has already

that you feel like it has already happened now the power behind all of

happened now the power behind all of that is that the person now who's who's

that is that the person now who's who's who's in that state where they're

who's in that state where they're feeling like the event has already

feeling like the event has already happened they no longer want it because

happened they no longer want it because they're feeling the emotion what how

they're feeling the emotion what how could they they wouldn't be looking for

could they they wouldn't be looking for it you only look for it when you

it you only look for it when you experience lack if you feel like it's

experience lack if you feel like it's already happened you're no longer

already happened you're no longer separate from it and we cannot attract

separate from it and we cannot attract anything in our life we feel separate

anything in our life we feel separate from and so feeling that emotion somehow

from and so feeling that emotion somehow starts to draw

starts to draw things to us and now we're not having to

things to us and now we're not having to do anything and things are starting to

do anything and things are starting to come to us that's the synchronicities

come to us that's the synchronicities that's the coincidences that's the

that's the coincidences that's the opportunities we're not doing anything

opportunities we're not doing anything they're coming to us and that's so so

they're coming to us and that's so so you can't when you create from that

you can't when you create from that Quantum field instead of from

Quantum field instead of from matter you can't create from lack

matter you can't create from lack because the thought of your wealth in

because the thought of your wealth in the quantum produces the feeling of

the quantum produces the feeling of abundance the thought of your wealth and

abundance the thought of your wealth and three-dimensional reality for many

three-dimensional reality for many people produ is the lack of not having

people produ is the lack of not having it so the in the quantum there's a whole

it so the in the quantum there's a whole different set of rules and and it's not

different set of rules and and it's not something that you know you learn right

something that you know you learn right away it's you learn from trial and error

away it's you learn from trial and error so so then when we create truly create

so so then when we create truly create in the act of creation and we are

in the act of creation and we are creating from the field instead of from

creating from the field instead of from matter to shorten the distance between

matter to shorten the distance between the thought of what we want and

the thought of what we want and experience of having it the only way

experience of having it the only way that we can do that is we can't create

that we can do that is we can't create from lack so in the creative process we

from lack so in the creative process we create from wholeness my conern when I

create from wholeness my conern when I hear that is well Jo if I no longer want

hear that is well Jo if I no longer want if I no longer live in a state of want

if I no longer live in a state of want am I going to have the motivation to get

am I going to have the motivation to get up and go because I look at my life and

up and go because I look at my life and go well it was your creating from a

go well it was your creating from a place of lack that motivated you to

place of lack that motivated you to start a podcast and to start run

start a podcast and to start run businesses and do all of these things

businesses and do all of these things and get a car and whatever else no I'm

and get a car and whatever else no I'm not disputing that I think I think you

not disputing that I think I think you do that for a while you do that for a

do that for a while you do that for a while and I I always tell people I don't

while and I I always tell people I don't care what you want to create I just want

care what you want to create I just want you to get really good at creating I

you to get really good at creating I don't care if it's I don't care what it

don't care if it's I don't care what it is wealth I don't care what it is car

is wealth I don't care what it is car you know whatever it is vacations houses

you know whatever it is vacations houses I don't care just get good at creating

I don't care just get good at creating but sooner or later that the novelty

but sooner or later that the novelty will wear off on all of that and you you

will wear off on all of that and you you you'll want to know that on some level

you'll want to know that on some level there's more

there's more so so you we always desire things we

so so you we always desire things we always want things but when we're in the

always want things but when we're in the creative process we cannot create from

creative process we cannot create from the lack of not having it we have to

the lack of not having it we have to create from the feeling of having it

create from the feeling of having it right and so in the quantum you got to

right and so in the quantum you got to feel it to experience

feel it to experience it this one change has transformed how

it this one change has transformed how my team and I move train and think about

my team and I move train and think about our bodies when doctor Daniel Lieberman

our bodies when doctor Daniel Lieberman came on the DI of CEO he explained how

came on the DI of CEO he explained how modern shoes with their cushioning and

modern shoes with their cushioning and support are making our feet weaker and

support are making our feet weaker and that's capable of doing what nature

that's capable of doing what nature intended them to do we've lost the

intended them to do we've lost the natural strength and mobility in our

natural strength and mobility in our feet and this is leading to issues like

feet and this is leading to issues like back pain and knee pain I'd already

back pain and knee pain I'd already purchased a pair of Viva barefoot shoes

purchased a pair of Viva barefoot shoes so I showed them to Daniel liberman and

so I showed them to Daniel liberman and he told me that they were exactly the

he told me that they were exactly the type of shoe that would help me restore

type of shoe that would help me restore natural foot movement and rebuild my

natural foot movement and rebuild my strength but I think it was plti fitis

strength but I think it was plti fitis that I had where suddenly my feet

that I had where suddenly my feet started hurting all the time and after

started hurting all the time and after that I decided to start strengthening my

that I decided to start strengthening my own foot by using the Viva Barefoot and

own foot by using the Viva Barefoot and research from Liverpool university has

research from Liverpool university has backed this up they've shown that

backed this up they've shown that wearing Vivo barefoot shoes for 6 months

wearing Vivo barefoot shoes for 6 months can increase foot strength by up to

can increase foot strength by up to 60% visit Vivo

business I'm also an investor in and if you follow me on Instagram you probably

you follow me on Instagram you probably noticed that recently I've picked up

noticed that recently I've picked up running which I'm very much enjoying and

running which I'm very much enjoying and it started out as a challenge but it's

it started out as a challenge but it's now evolved into something I do almost

now evolved into something I do almost daily it is one of those things that's

daily it is one of those things that's pushing me to be better every single day

pushing me to be better every single day but here's the thing to me progress

but here's the thing to me progress isn't just about pushing harder it's

isn't just about pushing harder it's also about training in a smarter way

also about training in a smarter way which is where my whoop comes in whoop

which is where my whoop comes in whoop doesn't just track my workouts it tells

doesn't just track my workouts it tells me how ready my body is to take them on

me how ready my body is to take them on before I've even started the workout a

before I've even started the workout a few years ago we ran a study called

few years ago we ran a study called project PR and it found that Runners who

project PR and it found that Runners who adjusted their training based on their

adjusted their training based on their recovery scores improved their 5K times

recovery scores improved their 5K times by an average of 2 minutes and 40

by an average of 2 minutes and 40 seconds while reducing injury Risk by

seconds while reducing injury Risk by over 30% and they did it while training

over 30% and they did it while training less so if you're looking for this type

let me know how you get on when you say in the quantum oh I was

on when you say in the quantum oh I was hoping you wouldn't

hoping you wouldn't go oh God because people are going to

go oh God because people are going to hear you say that and they're going to

hear you say that and they're going to say I wonder what he means by the

say I wonder what he means by the quantum okay the

quantum okay the probability that we're perceiving the

probability that we're perceiving the truth of

truth of reality is

reality is zero that that there's

zero that that there's more

more information in the inmaterial than

information in the inmaterial than there'll ever be in the

there'll ever be in the material and that information that

material and that information that exists in the inmaterial that the the

exists in the inmaterial that the the senses cannot perceive the senses can

senses cannot perceive the senses can only perceive three-dimensional reality

only perceive three-dimensional reality objects and things and places and people

objects and things and places and people and

and bodies there's an invisible field of

bodies there's an invisible field of energy the the atom is both particle

energy the the atom is both particle matter and wave or energy right but all

matter and wave or energy right but all we see is the material element and the

we see is the material element and the atom is

atom is 99.999999% information and energy and

99.999999% information and energy and 0000000000

0000000000 1% matter so the brain has been shaped

1% matter so the brain has been shaped and molded from Generations Untold in

and molded from Generations Untold in living in Survival by narrowing our

living in Survival by narrowing our focus on the material world the stress

focus on the material world the stress hormones heighten our senses and when we

hormones heighten our senses and when we our senses are heightened we become

our senses are heightened we become materialist so live in survival for

materialist so live in survival for thousands and thousands of years energy

thousands and thousands of years energy is not important when you're being

is not important when you're being chased by

chased by T-Rex uh energy is not important when

T-Rex uh energy is not important when you're looking for food right you got to

you're looking for food right you got to narrow your focus and and so the brain

narrow your focus and and so the brain cannot perceive energy or frequency so

cannot perceive energy or frequency so what we're seeing is really symbols or

what we're seeing is really symbols or just out picturing of the most stable

just out picturing of the most stable form of energy called matter and our

form of energy called matter and our senses collapse it into what appears to

senses collapse it into what appears to be

be material but the quantum field is that

material but the quantum field is that other field of energy and information

other field of energy and information that exists beyond our senses Beyond

that exists beyond our senses Beyond this material world whose signature is

this material world whose signature is Oneness his signature is wholeness who

Oneness his signature is wholeness who signature is connection whose signature

signature is connection whose signature is love pure love and so if you spend

is love pure love and so if you spend your whole life with all of your

your whole life with all of your attention on your body your environment

attention on your body your environment and time all of your attention is in

and time all of your attention is in this three-dimensional reality then you

this three-dimensional reality then you got to play by the rules and the rules

got to play by the rules and the rules are Newtonian physics you got to predict

are Newtonian physics you got to predict everything it's going to take time and

everything it's going to take time and energy for you to get everything you

energy for you to get everything you want in your life okay you can get

want in your life okay you can get really good at that you can get really

really good at that you can get really good you can get skilled you can get

good you can get skilled you can get trained you can get coached you can

trained you can get coached you can learn you can go to school you can learn

learn you can go to school you can learn from your mistakes you can gather a lot

from your mistakes you can gather a lot of things you get really good at

of things you get really good at that but is there another way to create

that but is there another way to create okay well Einstein said the field the

okay well Einstein said the field the wave the energy is the sole governing

wave the energy is the sole governing agency of the particle energy controls

agency of the particle energy controls matter he didn't say the particle

matter he didn't say the particle controls the particle he said the field

controls the particle he said the field control controls the particle if you

control controls the particle if you change the information in the field can

change the information in the field can you change the projection the particle

you change the projection the particle in three dimensional reality this is a

in three dimensional reality this is a holographic Universe okay so if the if

holographic Universe okay so if the if the quantum field is an invisible field

the quantum field is an invisible field of energy that exists beyond our senses

of energy that exists beyond our senses beyond our body our environment and time

beyond our body our environment and time then the only way we are going to

then the only way we are going to connect to it is take all of our

connect to it is take all of our attention off our body all of our

attention off our body all of our attention off the environment what's the

attention off the environment what's the environment made of people objects

environment made of people objects things places and and take all of your

things places and and take all of your attention off of linear time the

attention off of linear time the predictable future and the familiar past

predictable future and the familiar past and find The Sweet Spot of the generous

and find The Sweet Spot of the generous present moment that's the unknown that's

present moment that's the unknown that's the door that's the moment you become

the door that's the moment you become nobody no one no thing nowhere no time

nobody no one no thing nowhere no time that is the moment you are pure

that is the moment you are pure Consciousness and it's no different than

Consciousness and it's no different than me saying to

me saying to you stay alive I'm going to take away

you stay alive I'm going to take away your eyesight I'm going to take away

your eyesight I'm going to take away your hearing I'm going to take away your

your hearing I'm going to take away your smell I'm going to take away your taste

smell I'm going to take away your taste I'm going to take away you feeling with

I'm going to take away you feeling with your body and if I take away all of your

your body and if I take away all of your senses who are you your Consciousness

senses who are you your Consciousness right your Consciousness consciousness

right your Consciousness consciousness of what nothing nothing but what you and

of what nothing nothing but what you and the act of becoming conscious of nothing

the act of becoming conscious of nothing and becoming nobody no one no thing

and becoming nobody no one no thing nowhere and no time is the eye of the

nowhere and no time is the eye of the needle and that is the moment you're

needle and that is the moment you're walking through the door to the quantum

walking through the door to the quantum field and when you walk through that

field and when you walk through that door the game changes it's all energy

door the game changes it's all energy it's all frequency it's all vibration

it's all frequency it's all vibration it's all connected it's all thought it's

it's all connected it's all thought it's all Consciousness it's all information

all Consciousness it's all information right and so you got to train your brain

right and so you got to train your brain like when you pass through you're not

like when you pass through you're not you any longer you're not your body any

you any longer you're not your body any longer you're your body here your pure

longer you're your body here your pure Consciousness and that void or that

Consciousness and that void or that vacuum or that nothing whatever you want

vacuum or that nothing whatever you want to call that is rich in frequency and

to call that is rich in frequency and energy so have people linger there

energy so have people linger there without a name without a skin color

without a name without a skin color without a gender without a diet without

without a gender without a diet without a face without a past without a social

a face without a past without a social security number without a profession

security number without a profession without being a mother father a kid

without being a mother father a kid linger there as pure Consciousness lay

linger there as pure Consciousness lay the the character down and get

the the character down and get comfortable in nothing in the

comfortable in nothing in the unknown okay now that you're there if

unknown okay now that you're there if it's all frequency and it's all energy

it's all frequency and it's all energy then the next thing we have to do then

then the next thing we have to do then is get our brain coherent because

is get our brain coherent because thought is the electrical charge it's

thought is the electrical charge it's the impulse in the quantum field and the

the impulse in the quantum field and the feeling the elevated emotion is the

feeling the elevated emotion is the magnetic charge if you take a thought

magnetic charge if you take a thought and a feeling an image and an emotion a

and a feeling an image and an emotion a vision of the future with a coherent

vision of the future with a coherent brain and a coherent heart you got a

brain and a coherent heart you got a whole new Wi-Fi signal now you're

whole new Wi-Fi signal now you're broadcasting new information into the

broadcasting new information into the field and you're connected to this field

field and you're connected to this field keep changing the information in the

keep changing the information in the field you're going to change the destiny

field you're going to change the destiny of your experience in matter and so we

of your experience in matter and so we teach people how to get to that place

teach people how to get to that place get their brains and hearts coherent and

get their brains and hearts coherent and learn how to create by changing the

learn how to create by changing the information in the field to ultimately

information in the field to ultimately create the experience they want in three

create the experience they want in three dimensional reality and when there's a

dimensional reality and when there's a vibrational match between their energy

vibrational match between their energy and some potential in the quantum field

and some potential in the quantum field and they're creating from the source of

and they're creating from the source of everything physical why would they go

everything physical why would they go anywhere to get it if you're the source

anywhere to get it if you're the source you would draw to you so then creating

you would draw to you so then creating from the field instead of from

from the field instead of from matter can literally shorten the

matter can literally shorten the distance between the thought of what you

distance between the thought of what you want and the experience of having it

want and the experience of having it instead of going and having to do

instead of going and having to do something to get it it starts coming to

something to get it it starts coming to you and that's another way to create and

you and that's another way to create and again it all starts with getting out of

again it all starts with getting out of the future in the past and into the the

the future in the past and into the the overcoming process the first couple days

overcoming process the first couple days is Val more valuable than all the gold

is Val more valuable than all the gold in the world for people though they'll

in the world for people though they'll say oh my God I had such a terrible

say oh my God I had such a terrible story I had such a belief oh my God I

story I had such a belief oh my God I just I was so addicted to those emotions

just I was so addicted to those emotions they'll tell you and they just have you

they'll tell you and they just have you just have to sit with yourself long

just have to sit with yourself long enough to no longer want to feel that

enough to no longer want to feel that way and we just give people the tools to

way and we just give people the tools to get them from the old self to the new

get them from the old self to the new self to cross that River it's quite

self to cross that River it's quite compelling idea that I might be addicted

compelling idea that I might be addicted to negative emotions or emotions that

to negative emotions or emotions that aren't productive to me in any way even

aren't productive to me in any way even that as an idea well take the idea like

that as an idea well take the idea like this if you were angry right now or you

this if you were angry right now or you were feeling sad and I came up to you

were feeling sad and I came up to you and I said Hey Stephen listen I know

and I said Hey Stephen listen I know you're really miffed right now I know

you're really miffed right now I know you're feeling really down whatever um

you're feeling really down whatever um but just

but just stop just stop getting just stop being

stop just stop getting just stop being there just stop if you can't stop that

there just stop if you can't stop that then on some level you must be addicted

then on some level you must be addicted to it right if you if you truly were not

to it right if you if you truly were not addicted to it you would be able to just

addicted to it you would be able to just turn it off right so so when people

turn it off right so so when people start to see that they're like oh my god

start to see that they're like oh my god um yeah I could be addicted to that it's

um yeah I could be addicted to that it's a good moment for people what's it doing

a good moment for people what's it doing for me well the long-term effects of

for me well the long-term effects of doing that I mean we can turn on the

doing that I mean we can turn on the stress response just by thought alone

stress response just by thought alone you could think about your problems and

you could think about your problems and you could produce the same chemistry as

you could produce the same chemistry as if it was

if it was real the long-term effects of the

real the long-term effects of the hormones of stress down regul genes and

hormones of stress down regul genes and create disease and if you can turn on

create disease and if you can turn on that stress response just by thought

that stress response just by thought alone that means your thoughts can make

alone that means your thoughts can make you sick if I know it's bad for me like

you sick if I know it's bad for me like no one wants to feel sad so why am I

no one wants to feel sad so why am I choosing to feel sad there's nothing

choosing to feel sad there's nothing wrong with feeling sad it's just how

wrong with feeling sad it's just how long you want to stay there or angry or

long you want to stay there or angry or fearful I don't want to feel that yeah

fearful I don't want to feel that yeah so again here we go trial and error you

so again here we go trial and error you got to catch yourself and you got to go

got to catch yourself and you got to go because because when you're feeling sad

because because when you're feeling sad as an example or you're feeling angry or

as an example or you're feeling angry or whatever

whatever for the most part uh you want to stay

for the most part uh you want to stay there many people like it's just

there many people like it's just comfortable it's it's some people find a

comfortable it's it's some people find a lot of comfort in being unhappy they're

lot of comfort in being unhappy they're really happy being unhappy so so if you

really happy being unhappy so so if you want to evolve your experience in life

want to evolve your experience in life you would say I can change this I

you would say I can change this I literally can change it let me sit down

literally can change it let me sit down and change my emotional state if this

and change my emotional state if this emotion is causing me me to view my

emotion is causing me me to view my reality through the lens of the past if

reality through the lens of the past if this reality is downregulating my genes

this reality is downregulating my genes and creating disease if this reality

and creating disease if this reality feeling this emotion is causing me to

feeling this emotion is causing me to behave as if I'm in a past reality if a

behave as if I'm in a past reality if a feeling this emotion causes me to

feeling this emotion causes me to believe in my past more than my future H

believe in my past more than my future H maybe it's not s such a good idea that I

maybe it's not s such a good idea that I stay there so so Justified or

stay there so so Justified or not valid or not the only person that

not valid or not the only person that that emotion is affecting is you sooner

that emotion is affecting is you sooner or later I think when people start

or later I think when people start realizing I can change my emotional

realizing I can change my emotional state and they really sit down even

state and they really sit down even though they don't want to do it they do

though they don't want to do it they do it that's when they start feeling a lot

it that's when they start feeling a lot of worth Joe what is the most important

of worth Joe what is the most important question based on all of your work and

question based on all of your work and all that you do and all that you're

all that you do and all that you're thinking about at this exact moment and

thinking about at this exact moment and the subject of change and transformation

the subject of change and transformation that I should have asked you

that I should have asked you oo is it possible that the human nervous

oo is it possible that the human nervous system the autonomic nervous system

system the autonomic nervous system manufactures a pharmacy of chemicals

manufactures a pharmacy of chemicals that works better than any drug

that works better than any drug is it possible that the human nervous

is it possible that the human nervous system

system manufactures a pharmacy of chemicals

manufactures a pharmacy of chemicals that works better than any drug Joe the

that works better than any drug Joe the answer is absolutely yes that's what our

answer is absolutely yes that's what our data shows and it's not pseudo science

data shows and it's not pseudo science our data shows that the autonomic

our data shows that the autonomic nervous system can manufacture a

nervous system can manufacture a pharmacy of chemicals that works better

pharmacy of chemicals that works better than any drug a drug trial is about uh

than any drug a drug trial is about uh uh 25% effective one out of four people

uh 25% effective one out of four people have a response and it's normally over a

have a response and it's normally over a length of time 60 to 90 days

length of time 60 to 90 days what our data shows is

what our data shows is that

that 75 as I said 84 90 95 100% of the people

75 as I said 84 90 95 100% of the people that are involved in a 7-Day event have

that are involved in a 7-Day event have these effects so even if it's

these effects so even if it's 75% that means it's working three times

75% that means it's working three times better than any drug and yet your

better than any drug and yet your nervous system is manufacturing those

nervous system is manufacturing those chemicals equal to the person's state of

chemicals equal to the person's state of being equal to their intention and and I

being equal to their intention and and I keep telling I keep asking the scien is

keep telling I keep asking the scien is where are those chemicals coming from

where are those chemicals coming from the person's not eating a pill they're

the person's not eating a pill they're not changing their diet they're not

not changing their diet they're not doing anything and yet what wasn't there

doing anything and yet what wasn't there before the event somehow is there after

before the event somehow is there after the event it's coming from within us is

the event it's coming from within us is that because of some of the sort of

that because of some of the sort of techniques and the processes you go

techniques and the processes you go through at the event is it because of

through at the event is it because of the connect of a group of people coming

the connect of a group of people coming together and synchronizing and the

together and synchronizing and the oxytocin is it all of the above it's all

oxytocin is it all of the above it's all of the above I mean almost 80% of the

of the above I mean almost 80% of the people expressing the same genes and

people expressing the same genes and making the same proteins that's unheard

making the same proteins that's unheard of what we discovered is people change

of what we discovered is people change people that's what we disc we discovered

people that's what we disc we discovered that Collective networks of observers

that Collective networks of observers determine reality and it's not the

determine reality and it's not the number of people it's not the amount of

number of people it's not the amount of energy it's the most coherence that

energy it's the most coherence that takes place in the in the group and so

takes place in the in the group and so we're doing studies now with with

we're doing studies now with with Collective networks we're doing studies

Collective networks we're doing studies and measuring the effects of collective

and measuring the effects of collective Consciousness what does that do uh uh in

Consciousness what does that do uh uh in terms of field effects and and energy

terms of field effects and and energy when you say all of this and you talk

when you say all of this and you talk about this relationship between the body

about this relationship between the body and the mind it um it keeps making me

and the mind it um it keeps making me wonder about your beliefs of a higher

wonder about your beliefs of a higher power or a God because it all sounds I

power or a God because it all sounds I mean the more and more I learn about the

mean the more and more I learn about the body and how interconnected it is it all

body and how interconnected it is it all sounds just mystical it's the only way

sounds just mystical it's the only way to describe it so I wondered as you were

to describe it so I wondered as you were speaking I wrote down on my a lipad here

speaking I wrote down on my a lipad here I said does Joe believe in God I do I do

I said does Joe believe in God I do I do I think there's one God but in that one

I think there's one God but in that one there's many yeah what is that mean that

there's many yeah what is that mean that means that means that God Lives within

means that means that God Lives within you the Divine lives in every human

you the Divine lives in every human being that's what I believe and I think

being that's what I believe and I think it's really important for people to make

it's really important for people to make time for it to connect to it to fall in

time for it to connect to it to fall in love with it to stay aware of it to

love with it to stay aware of it to bring it into their life by staying

bring it into their life by staying aware of it and connecting to it and I

aware of it and connecting to it and I think the more we interact with it I

think the more we interact with it I think the more it becomes us and the

think the more it becomes us and the more we become it and so removing the

more we become it and so removing the veils the blocks the emotions the habits

veils the blocks the emotions the habits the blind spots that stand in our way

the blind spots that stand in our way between our connection to that unifying

between our connection to that unifying field or God or the absolute or the

field or God or the absolute or the Creator or universal mind or Source or

Creator or universal mind or Source or Singularity the zero point field the

Singularity the zero point field the fertile void whatever you want to call

fertile void whatever you want to call it the motherf father principle making

it the motherf father principle making time to interact with it by removing the

time to interact with it by removing the things that stand in the way between us

things that stand in the way between us and it allows us to get closer to love

and it allows us to get closer to love right and I think that's what God is so

right and I think that's what God is so the expression of the

the expression of the Divine the expression of God through the

Divine the expression of God through the human being would be a a person that's

human being would be a a person that's more conscious more mindful more willful

more conscious more mindful more willful more loving uh um um more giving that's

more loving uh um um more giving that's the nature of the Divine so its nature

the nature of the Divine so its nature becomes our nature right so I do believe

becomes our nature right so I do believe that um we're not linear beings living a

that um we're not linear beings living a linear life I believe that we're

linear life I believe that we're dimensional beings living a dimensional

dimensional beings living a dimensional life and and I do believe in that

life and and I do believe in that Universal uh mind that Universal Power

Universal uh mind that Universal Power and and making time to use it and to

and and making time to use it and to interact with it and connect with it and

interact with it and connect with it and to reach for it and to become it um I

to reach for it and to become it um I think it's a worthy Journey for people

think it's a worthy Journey for people thank you so much for the work that you

thank you so much for the work that you do it's a perfect sort of combination of

do it's a perfect sort of combination of all the things that I think I care about

all the things that I think I care about but also I think my audience care about

but also I think my audience care about and if they are looking to go deeper

and if they are looking to go deeper Beyond this podcast I would highly

Beyond this podcast I would highly recommend them trying to get a ticket to

recommend them trying to get a ticket to one of your events very hard to get

one of your events very hard to get tickets to your events so good luck to

tickets to your events so good luck to you but I would highly recommend they go

you but I would highly recommend they go to your website and they can see a full

to your website and they can see a full list of events that you have coming up

list of events that you have coming up there because it can be um from as I've

there because it can be um from as I've learned from my partner truly

learned from my partner truly transformational in ways that maybe will

transformational in ways that maybe will surprise them if you can find I'm

surprise them if you can find I'm reinviting you I need to do it it's been

reinviting you I need to do it it's been been something on my mind you should

been something on my mind you should just come just for fun you I promised

just come just for fun you I promised you'd have the best week of your life I

you'd have the best week of your life I know I know I just see the I see the

know I know I just see the I see the impact you had on M my girlfriend and I

impact you had on M my girlfriend and I just I'm jealous of it it's the best way

just I'm jealous of it it's the best way to describe it nice I am jealous of it

to describe it nice I am jealous of it thank you so much good kind of

thank you so much good kind of jealousy the hardest conversations are

jealousy the hardest conversations are often the ones we avoid but what if you

often the ones we avoid but what if you had the right question to start them

had the right question to start them with every single guest on the DI of CEO

with every single guest on the DI of CEO has left behind a question in this diary

has left behind a question in this diary and it's a question designed to

and it's a question designed to challenge to connect and to go deeper

challenge to connect and to go deeper with the next guest and these are all

with the next guest and these are all the questions that I have here in my

the questions that I have here in my hand on one side you've got the question

hand on one side you've got the question that was asked the name of the person

that was asked the name of the person who wrote it and on the other side if

who wrote it and on the other side if you scan that you can watch the person

you scan that you can watch the person who came after who answered it 51

who came after who answered it 51 questions split across three different

questions split across three different levels the warm-up level the openup

levels the warm-up level the openup level and the Deep level so you decide

level and the Deep level so you decide how deep the conversation goes and

how deep the conversation goes and people play these conversation cards in

people play these conversation cards in boardrooms at work in bedrooms alone at

boardrooms at work in bedrooms alone at night and on first dates and everywhere
