Video Version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zHCcDftUPwQGregg Braden discusses the concept of heart-brain coherence and its potential to optimize human performance and well-being. He shares the steps to achieve coherence, which involves shifting awareness to the heart, slowing the breath, and creating positive feelings in the heart. Braden explains that coherence extends beyond the heart and brain to every cell in the body, leading to enhanced physical, mental, and emotional capabilities. He also explores the intersection of technology and spirituality, highlighting the importance of maintaining our humanness amidst the rapid advancements in technology. Braden emphasizes the need to honor our bodies and tap into our extraordinary potential as athletes and individuals. The conversation explores the idea of embracing a different way of thinking and applying the principles of science and ancestral wisdom in everyday life.Takeaways Heart-brain coherence can optimize human potential and performance. Achieving coherence involves shifting awareness to the heart, slowing the breath, and creating positive feelings. Coherence extends to every cell in the body, enhancing physical, mental, and emotional capabilities. The intersection of technology and spirituality raises important questions about the future of humanity. Maintaining our humanness and honoring our bodies is crucial amidst technological advancements. Embracing new ways of thinking can lead to personal growth and self-improvement. The best science of the modern world can provide insights into how we work. The wisdom of our ancestors can offer guidance on applying these principles. Bringing people together to explore these ideas can create a supportive community.

“As the acceptance of expanded human potential gains mainstream momentum, the question has shifted from “What is possible in our lives?” to “How do we do it? How do we awaken our extraordinary potential in everyday life?” Welcome to PART 3 of our review of Dr. Joe Dispenza's work. On today's EPISODE #311 on "Decoding Our Thoughts: How to Build a Better Future with the Power of Our Mind" and PART 3 of our Review of Dr. Joe Dispenza's work, we will: Review Chapter 3 of Dr. Joe Dispenza's book, Becoming Supernatural on Accessing The Quantum World for improved results in our personal, professional life, or with our health and wellness. STEP 1: DROPPING INTO THE PRESENT MOMENT: OPENING THE DOORWAY TO THE QUANTUM WORLD STEP 2: SETTING A CLEAR INTENTION OF WHAT YOU WANT TO CHANGE IN YOUR LIFE STEP 3: HOW TO CHANGE YOUR ENERGY STEP 4: UNCOVERING WHAT YOU LEARN in THE QUANTUM WORLD STEP 5: RECORDING WHAT HAPPENS AND KEEP WORKING ✔ What science has to say about the Quantum World? ✔ Strategies on how to IMPLEMENT these 5 STEPS into our daily life for improved results (personally, professionally and with our health). Today we will continue our exploration of how exactly we live up to the full potential we all have within us, or like the name of Dr. Joe Dispenza's book, Becoming Supernatural: How Common People are Doing the Uncommon. Today as we cover PART 3 of this exploration we will identify clear strategies to awaken the extraordinary potential in each of us, and these will be evidence-based strategies, that are backed by science. We will do this by looking at CH 3 of Becoming Supernatural, a book that is the first-of-its-kind manual that does precisely this: it leads us on a step-by-step journey to achieving our greatest potential in body, health, relationships, and our life purpose and allows us to make that journey at our own pace. This book study has taken me some time to think, and consolidate what I'm learning since we released PART 1 the end of September. I needed this time to put Dr. Dispenza's ideas and meditations into practice, and have spent the past month and a half, immersed in his teachings, filling in the gaps of understanding I've had since I first began studying human potential in the late 1990s. As mentioned in the first part of this study, this is a shallow dive, and it's just the beginning. I do hope that our review today helps us to ALL unlock more of the mysteries within the unseen world, as we learn to put these concepts into practice into our daily lives. I'm sure we will return to this episode in the future, but this is where we will start our journey today. We'll review what we learned in PART1 and PART 2, preparing us for this exciting journey of our mind, with PART 3 today, where we'll put it all into action, with something we want to achieve in our own life. Welcome back to The Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast, where we connect the science-based evidence behind social and emotional learning (that's finally being taught in our schools today) and emotional intelligence training (used in our modern workplaces) for improved well-being, achievement, productivity and results—using what I saw as the missing link (since we weren't taught this when we were growing up in school), the application of practical neuroscience. I'm Andrea Samadi, an author, and an educator with a passion for learning and launched this podcast 5 years ago with the goal of bringing ALL the leading experts together (in one place) to uncover the most current research that would back up how the brain. For those tuning into this episode, and you've not listened to PART 1 EP 306[i] yet, or PART 2 EP 310[ii] I do encourage you to begin there. You will learn the background of where I first learned about Dr. Joe Dispenza's work, and see how he fits into what we've been covering on the podcast the past 10 seasons. For today's episode #311 “Decoding Our Thoughts: How to Build a Better Future with the Power of Our Mind” and PART 3 of our review of Dr. Joe Dispenza's work we'll pick up where we left off with the importance of living in the present moment, mental rehearsal, and priming our brain AND body for a new future. We recall the importance of creating an elevated emotion that helps to develop a coherent heart, combined with a clear intention that develops a coherent brain, creating a magnetic field that projects beyond our body to be used for ourselves and others. And before you think I'm completely crazy, which I know is possible, as I'm reading what I'm writing, it does sound crazy, or a bit off the wall, but scientists like Dr. Konstantin Korotkov[iii] have been measuring these energy fields around the body with technology that can accurately pick up the physical health of our body and mind in an instant, pinpointing any areas of concern, and changing the way we approach our mental health and wellness in the future. Next we will take all of this deep back knowledge and move into Chapter 3 of Becoming Supernatural, that he calls “Tuning into New Potentials in the Quantum” and see how we can all use it in our daily lives. I know we've talked about this Quantum World through Dr. Dispenza's work that exists when “you take your attention off objects in your physical environment” and “take your attention off linear time (which has a past and a future) and “you are (now) in the present moment, in which all possibilities in the quantum field exist.” (Ch 3, Becoming Supernatural). I hand drew what this looks like with the “Predictable Timeline” from Chapter 2 of Becoming Superhuman to show the importance of being in the present moment for accessing something NEW we want to create in our life. IMAGE CREDIT: Andrea hand drew the image from Chapter 2 Becoming Superhuman WHAT IS QUANTUM THEORY? Before I even start to explain this, I've got to say that explaining this concept has been on my mind since first launching this podcast back in 2019. Over the years I've heard of this idea in many different ways, so when interviewing certain speakers, my goal was always to connect the science to this concept of “another world” where ALL possibilities exit that just seems flat out crazy. But I heard it over and over again. The same idea, explained slightly differently in different books, through different people, in a slightly different way. Each person added to my understanding, but it's been a process for me to connect each person's definition, and put it into practice in my own life. What IS the Quantum World? 2018 Dr. Daniel Siegel Aware[iv]: The Science and Practice of Presence I went a very long time not completely understanding this idea of Quantum Theory or The Quantum World that Dr. Dispenza writes about beautifully in Chapter 3. Dr. Dispenza became well known with a movie he produced, explaining this concept in a unique way, in the early 2000s but the movie was labelled as pseudoscience because I don't think that the science had caught up to his level of thinking. I admire Dr. Dispenza for pushing past this time, as the science eventually caught up to him and then he met Dr. Korotkov and was finally able to measure what he knew to be true with GDV technology, and with other tools, that he talks about in his book. But over the years I wondered “What is this Quantum World and how can I access it to create these unforeseen events in my own life?” Then I heard it from someone who I knew had the scientific background to bring credibility to this idea! I was on a webinar with Dr. Dan Siegel in 2018, and I heard him explaining this concept I knew to be called The Quantum Field or Quantum Theory through his Wheel of Awareness Meditation[v]. Right then and there, I knew I had to interview Dr. Siegel and learn more about what he was saying. I'm beyond grateful he said yes as one of our early interviews, episode #28[vi]. He could have looked at our episode count and think we weren't a popular enough show (as we were in the beginning stages with this podcast) but not Dan Siegel. He's connected to this plane of consciousness and brings credibility to anyone who talks about it with his background, research and deep knowledge of looking at the world through a scientific lens. I think he knew on some level that his work would unlock something for more than just my level of thinking, (but for all those who would tune in over the years) as this is how this World (or Plane) of Possibility really works. He says… Dr. Siegel says that “physics has demonstrated that we have 2 realms in the physical universe—and this is not commonly known” when he explains what happens to us at different parts of his Wheel of Awareness practice. We did a deep dive into this meditation practice, as it was the first time I saw something designed to help us to access and navigate into this 2nd world, using our mind on EP 60[vii] on “The Science Behind a Meditation Practice: A Deep Dive into Dr. Dan Siegel's Wheel of Awareness Meditation” where I focused on some of the benefits I noticed personally from practicing his meditation daily, like an increased focused attention, a stronger interoceptive sense, an increased connection to people around the world, and then I said “there is more we can say on this topic and that I know with time, practice and as my own awareness increases, I will have a deeper understanding of the Wheel of Awareness.” I put an image of how Dr. Siegel would describe this State of Mind where we tap into this “other” plane of awareness, through meditation. I knew looking at this diagram in 2019 that Dr. Siegel was explaining something I was still trying to understand myself. During our interview, Dr. Siegel asked me “what have you noticed through practicing The Wheel of Awareness” and looking back now, I know what he was asking. He wrote his book Aware in 2018, a year before our interview. He wanted to know how aware I was. I answered from the point of view of someone who has been using his meditation, but with continued practice, this other world (a second world) opens up, and this is where the fun begins. My answer to him showed him I had not yet arrived at this new world of possibility. When I interviewed my mentor, and speaker Bob Proctor, on EP 66[viii], and asked him if he knew of Dr. Dan Siegel's work, I was trying to connect what I had heard Proctor say over and over again, to the world of science, but Proctor covered this answer by talking about how we all live in a physical body, and with the power of thought, we can “tap into” the spiritual world and create ideas (or beautiful castles) that he would almost pull from the sky. While watching Proctor speaking, I always wondered, where is his mind going? What is this “spiritual” world he is accessing, where anything we want is within our grasp? Proctor would ask you to tell him “what's the MOST money you've ever earned in a year” to see how aware we were. He would say that there was no difference in earning $50,000/year vs $50 million, just the awareness of how to do it. So since working with Proctor in the late 1990s, this question was always in the back of my mind. What is this world he's going to where all possibilities exist? I could see him pulling ideas from the sky when he was speaking, and I knew it mattered what thoughts I was thinking, the actions I was taking. We heard about the principles from Napoleon Hill's Classic Think and Grow Rich many times, especially this point that: “Any idea that is held in the mind that is either feared or revered will, begin at once to clothe itself in the most convenient and appropriate physical forms available.” Andrew Carnegie I knew it was important what we think and especially that we always keep a positive mindset but I couldn't explain why this was true, scientifically to anyone, until I began to connect different people's explanation of “Quantum Theory”, or “The Plane of Possibility”, or “The Sea of Potential” all in one place. WHAT IS THIS OTHER REALM? Every year, I like to pick a well-known, popular book, preferably one that I have studied for years, and have years of notes taken that I can share on the podcast, like we did with the popular Think and Grow Rich[ix] series, or the most popular Silva Method[x] series. But I've held off covering the popular book The Science of Getting Rich by Wallace D. Wattles which was a seminar I sold in the late 1990s, because I knew I would have to explain Wattles' version of Quantum Theory that's in EVERY chapter of his book. Wattles' Science of Getting Rich book directly focused on using this space to earn money, and his work goes like this. He says: “There is a thinking stuff from which all things are made, and which in its original state, permeates, penetrates and fills the interspaces of the universe. A thought in this substance produces the thing that is imaged by the thought. A person can form things in their thought, and by impressing their thoughts upon the formless substance, can cause the thing they think about to be created.” (Wallace D. Wattles). I'm not kidding, we used to read this passage at seminars, out loud, and I would be thinking “what the heck is he talking about? What is this thinking stuff from which ALL things are made?” I sold this seminar, and had no idea what the main point of it was about. While picking books to cover, this one (with a whole briefcase of notes attached to it) was thrown back into the back of my closet. I thought “there is no way I was ever going to cover this concept on a podcast designed to connect the most current brain research to help us to all improve our lives, with evidence-based strategies” until I started to see this concept show up in the work of reputable scientists like we've seen with Dr. Siegel. I've always had these concepts in the back of my mind, (that I saw working over and over again the seminar industry) or over the years since this time, that I wanted to connect science to, (like Dr. Dispenza ended up doing so well) so that we could ALL advance ourselves forward personally and professionally. These were age-old principles that I knew to be true, (I saw them working over and over again) but I just couldn't explain WHY they were true. Until I read Chapter 3 of Dr. Dispenza's Becoming Supernatural. It was within these pages that I learned that the best way to understand this “quantum” world was to experience it. We must now put chapters 1 and 2 into practice, and this takes time. TUNING INTO NEW POTENTIALS IN THE QUANTUM Dr. Dispenza reminds us to go back to the first two chapters where we practiced opening up to this idea of Becoming Supernatural, then learning to access the present moment, elevating our emotions, using mental rehearsal to prime our mind and body…and now we are ready to step into this Quantum World, where all possibilities exit, to create something new. An unknown event. It's here that we stay on the surface with our dive. If you want to go deeper, read Chapter 3 in detail. I'm not a neuroscientist, or scientist, so explaining the science behind this is not my strength. I just need to know it's there. If you need more science before moving forward, it's there in Chapter 3 of Dr. Dispenza's book, as well, you can find it in Dr. Daniel Siegel's book Aware. But if you are like me, and just want to practice this now, let's do it. PUTTING CH 3 INTO PRACTICE: ACCESSING THE QUANTUM WORLD Let's walk into the Quantum World together, and see HOW we can create an unknown event in our future. Something that you might want personally or professionally. Or even something with your health. STEP 1: DROP INTO THE PRESENT MOMENT: AND OPEN THE DOORWAY TO THE QUANTUM WORLD Accessing the Quantum World begins the minute you STOP and get yourself into the present moment. You can do this sitting down, standing up, or any way you like, but just STOP. Accessing the present moment can occur from using Dr. Dan Siegel's Wheel of Awareness Meditation, or ANY of Dr. Dispenza's. It's also the whole point of Jose Silva's Method, where he asks you to count backwards to access this world. Find what works best for you. I had to practice a few meditations over and over again in the early morning time before being able to access the present moment during the day when needed. STEP 2: SET A CLEAR INTENTION In order to use this Plane of Possibility to CREATE something NEW in your life, you first of all must know what it is that you want to create. If you aren't sure what you want to change in your life (this might be clear to you, or it might not be) then I suggest going back to PART 1[xi] of our Think and Grow Rich book review where we looked at how to uncover what you REALLY want in your life. I mentioned that when I was in my late 20s, and was asked “What do you REALLY want?” I didn't have it all figured out back then. It's taken me a lifetime to become crystal clear with what it is that I'm supposed to be doing with my time/work/career. Take the time to figure out what it is that YOU really want, since you will trade your life for it. STEP 3: CHANGE YOUR ENERGY: ELEVATING YOUR EMOTIONS WITH YOUR CLEAR INTENTION We went deep into this idea on our last episode, but this is important for being able to develop a coherent heart, and coherent brain. We know when our brain is working right, we work right. This is why we focus on health and wellness on this podcast. Everything ties in together. Dispenza now takes this idea to a new level. When we are under stress, we will not have a coherent brain. He explains this with a diagram in his book, but you'll get the idea. In order to line up your heart and brain, you can do this by elevating your emotions. This isn't the first time I've heard of this concept. Paul Martinelli[xii] covered it in his Think and Grow Rich study when he added what he thought were two missing chapters to the book (Love and Forgiveness). He said “when you feel love, happiness, energy and clarity, you will feel your vibration shifting” which is another way of saying you are access a new level of creation, on a higher vibration. We covered this concept in depth on EP 67.[xiii] Remember that we all have energy fields surrounding us, and this is one way to expand our energy field, helping us to “tune into” whatever it is that we want to create. The key to accessing whatever it is you want to create in this “World of Possibility” is to keep our energy level high throughout. During times of high stress, our energy field will start to shrink, so it's important to stay rested, nourish our body and mind, and keep our balance (coherent brain and heart). Dr. Korotkov's technology can measure this, and Dr. Dispenza has measured people's energy fields for years. The only way I can put this idea into something visual is to think about this concept. Have you ever seen a bicycle that you must peddle in order for it to generate some other energy type (a light or a television or something?) This is the idea. In order to generate what you want in this unseen world, you must keep pedaling, keeping this energy field strong, healthy, and level of vibration high. When I asked Bob Proctor about the quantum world that Dr. Dan Siegel talks about in our interview[xiv], where there is this plane of possibility where we can create anything, Bob answered with “I believe the physical realm that we live in and the spiritual world, are all connected, like the colors of the rainbow.” When we take an idea, it comes in from spirit, hits our intellectual mind, and it's up to us whether we move it into form. Have you ever had an idea that you thought was brilliant, and you never did anything with it, and then suddenly you see someone else has created it? That's because there is only one mind, and that we can all tap into these ideas. This is how ALL ideas happen. They start in the mind of the person who creates it, and then after dedicated work, they hit their target, and people watching might say “Oh wow, that person is so lucky” not realizing the work that went into the attainment of the goal. There are usually years of hard work, (pedaling the bicycle) with persistence, with failures, wrong turns, course corrections, but all starting with that clear vision or idea with an end goal or target. STEP 4: BE OPEN TO WHAT YOU SEE, LEARN and UNCOVER in THE QUANTUM WORLD This last step is where the magic happens. Just be open to what you could possibly create with this NEW energy. Be Patient. This Process Takes Time. ACCESS THE PLANE OF POSSIBILITY There is no right or wrong way to access this plane of possibility. Jose Silva's program walks us through a specific method to use our mind for improving our health (or solve any problem) through a specific technique where we create three scenes. You can see my notes walking through this process in the show notes. In the first scene, we think about the problem we want to solve, (I picked neck pain) the second, we take some sort of action towards solving the problem, (I picked using ice packs and a phrase I learned from hypnotherapy to help the pain to disappear, and then a symbol of the healing. For me all healing and progress takes place at a certain spot on this mountain I hike) and the with the third scene, we imagine our life with our problem solved. (I wrote how awesome it would feel to be free of this pain in my neck)! This is one example of using this Plane of Possibility to solve a problem you have. For you: What do YOU see when you access the plane of possibility? Do you need more help getting here? Try Dr. Siegel's Wheel of Awareness Meditation, or ANY of Dr. Dispenza's meditations. Are you beginning to gain some clarity towards whatever it is that you want to solve? (a personal problem, something with your work, or something with your health?) FIND YOUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS: If you still need more help here, I highly suggest bringing a team together to help you. This is not a usual team, but a team you gather when you are in your Plane of Possibility. It can be anyone but they are the people you pick to help move your intention forward. This concept might sound strange, but even people like Greg Link[xv], who was the mastermind behind the late Dr. Stephen Covey's 7 Habits of Highly Effective People that sold over 40 million copies worldwide (surpassing the popular Think and Grow Rich book) in 40 languages used this particular strategy. A book doesn't sell 40 million copies without a unique strategy behind it, and I heard it loud and clear in our interview last Spring. Greg mentioned that he had a “board of directors” that he asked questions to. Now this is not your typical board of directors. These are brilliant minds that you bring into your Quantum World of Possibility, and ask for help when you become stuck, to give you ideas to move you forward somehow. STEP 5: TAKE NOTE OF WHAT HAPPENS AND KEEP WORKING Getting to the stage when you can at will, create something out of nothing, takes time, focus, practice and dedication. Until I saw Chapter 3 of Becoming Supernatural, I was doing these steps without really knowing what the Quantum World was. Sometimes I would create what I wanted, but I knew there was something I was missing. If I was missing something, and I've been studying this for almost 30 years now, I figured I might as well put this on the podcast, as others might also have questions around the creative process. Sometimes you'll notice you'll be working, following these steps, and nothing happens and you might think “what a ridiculous idea this is” but when you get to this point, I suggest going back to the meditations (whether you pick Dr. Dispenza's or Dr. Siegel's, or someone else's) and go back to STEP 1, practicing dropping into the present moment. When I'm stuck, I know this is the beginning step to return to. REVIEW AND CONCLUSION: To review and conclude episode #311 “Decoding Our Thoughts: How to Build a Better Future with the Power of Our Mind” and PART 3 of our review of Dr. Joe Dispenza's work, we covered Chapter 3 of his book, and reviewed 5 IMPORTANT STEPS TO TAKE WHEN ACCESSING THE QUANTUM WORLD. STEP 1: DROP INTO THE PRESENT MOMENT: AND OPEN THE DOORWAY TO THE QUANTUM WORLD: Remember to keep an open mind here as the strategies we are covering, of Becoming Supernatural, and experiencing exceptional results, are not commonly known. Dr. Dan Siegel connects to the science to this plane of possibility in his book, Aware (2018) and says “physics has demonstrated that we have 2 realms in our physical universe—and this is not commonly known.” STEP 2: SET A CLEAR INTENTION: Know what it is that you want to work on or solve. If you are not sure what this is, go back to PART 1 of our Think and Grow Rich book study where we cover this in depth. STEP 3: CHANGE YOUR ENERGY: ELEVATING YOUR EMOTIONS WITH YOUR CLEAR INTENTION: The key to accessing whatever it is you want to create in this “World of Possibility” is to keep our energy level high throughout. When we can feel love, joy, excitement or awe, we will be keeping our energy levels high. Remember the analogy of riding a bicycle that generates a television with the energy, signifying that in order to create something, we must keep our energy levels high. STEP 4: BE OPEN TO WHAT YOU SEE, LEARN and UNCOVER: What do you see in this Plane of Possibility? Do you need more help getting here? Take your time at this step. This is where you are using your mind to create whatever is that you want. If you need more time spent in daily meditation, take this time. If you need to journal or think about what you are learning here. Take this time. STEP 5: TAKE NOTE OF WHAT HAPPENS AND KEEP WORKING Once we can get to this place, (that Dan Siegel calls the Plane of Possibility, or Dr. Dispenza calls The Quantum World) from dropping into the present moment, we've mentally rehearsed the future we want to create, (or our intention) we've embraced emotions (like joy, peace, appreciation, awe and love) in our heart, and our heart and brain have now gained coherence, then we WATCH for it. This is where it happens. WHAT you create here is entirely up to you. We can ALL connect to this quantum field, where all possibility exists, where time and space collapses and we can literally BECOME our intention. Over time, and with practice, these steps become easier and easier, and we can work on ourselves to improve our personal lives, our health, our professional lives, and even expand our capacity to do this for others in the world. I don't know about you, but this is mind-boggling learning. I'll close with the quote I opened up our most downloaded episode with, The Silva Method, from Jose Silva who says that “once we learn to use our mind to train it, it will do some astounding things for us, as you will soon see.” Jose Silva (August 11, 1914-February 7, 1999) author of The Silva Mind Control Method. I'll see you next week!

“As the acceptance of expanded human potential gains mainstream momentum, the question has shifted from “What is possible in our lives?” to “How do we do it? How do we awaken our extraordinary potential in everyday life?” (Dr. Joe Dispenza). Today we will look at these questions and take a shallow dive, not a deep one, as there are many layers to how exactly we live up to the full potential we all have within us, or like the name of Joe Dispenza's book, Becoming Supernatural: How Common People are Doing the Uncommon. Today we will begin this exploration and identify clear strategies to awaken the extraordinary potential in each of us.Welcome back to The Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast, where we connect the science-based evidence behind social and emotional learning (that's finally being taught in our schools today) and emotional intelligence training (used in our modern workplaces) for improved well-being, achievement, productivity and results—using what I saw as the missing link (since we weren't taught this when we were growing up in school), the application of practical neuroscience. I'm Andrea Samadi, an author, and an educator with a passion for learning and launched this podcast 5 years ago with the goal of bringing ALL the leading experts together (in one place) to uncover the most current research that would back up how the brain learns best, taking us ALL to new, and often unimaginable heights. For today's episode #306, we are going to look closely at the work of someone I have been forbidden by my mentor and neuroscience certification trainer, Mark Waldman, to EVER interview. When I first launched this podcast back in 2019, there were many reasons for WHY I wanted to bridge the gaps I saw in the field of education and the workplace, with practical neuroscience. To do this, I knew I needed training and obtained an Advanced Certification in Mindfulness-based Neurocoaching, where one of the MANY requirements for this Certification was that I had to show an application of practical neuroscience in the world, or just show that I was using what I was learning to help others. I told Mark Waldman about my podcast, and had him of for one of our early EP #30[i] in December of 2019 and shared with him my vision of who I would interview, and where I wanted to take this podcast. He told me he liked this idea, but since I was going to use this for his Certification requirement, he said “You must never interview anyone who covers pseudoscience” and said I must keep true evidence-based science (proven from articles on Pubmed) at the forefront. I thought, of course, why would I want to cover fake science and spread that into the world, and then he said it. “You must never interview Joe Dispenza!” And I thought “Oh no!” I love that guy. His name was written on my wall as a potential future guest and while I agreed at the time to keep the podcast focused on science, I never did cross Dr. Dispenza off my list. I first heard about Joe Dispenza when I worked in the motivational speaking industry and while I knew about his seminars, how crazy the results were that people obtained, and some of the advanced technologies he used like epigenetics testing, brain mapping with EEGs and gas discharge visualization technology (GDV). I also knew that some people, including Mark Waldman, would consider Joe Dispenza's work to be pseudoscience, but I always put the results first in my mind, and hoped that one day, science could help prove what he has been teaching for years. Joe Dispenza says it himself in the first few pages of his book, Becoming Supernatural. He writes: Dr. Dispenza let go of his critics and decided to move forward with wanting to share his message with the world. He believes in a world where possibility exists, and he will challenge our thinking using his own personal experience of transformation, through meditation and his ability to change his health (which really could be applied to any area of your life-change your results, finances, whatever it is you want to change) purely by changing our thoughts. This was one of the first concepts Bob Proctor from EP 66[ii] taught in his seminars. We had to change our thinking first in order to change our future results. We had Adele Spraggon on EP #184[iii] where she teaches about the importance of paying attention to our feelings before we think and act with her concept she writes about in her Shift book, so we can begin to make our habits work for us, instead of against us. So here are some questions I've been looking for an answer to since I launched this podcast 5 years ago. I wonder: Can our current, present day thoughts impact our future? Can we impact our own health (and results for that matter) purely by what we think? Can my energy influence another person, and can someone else's energy influence mine? Can someone's energy be felt? Can our energy field be seen? This is what Joe Dispenza has been working on proving for years, and he's been using the most forward thinking tools to do this, and one of them, GDV (gas discharge visualization) was developed by a brilliant Russian man, Konstantin Korotkov.[iv] I put a video explanation from Physics Professor, Konstantin Korotkov in the show notes, where he explains the history of his invention (GDV) that began with what we know to be called Kurlian Photography, that was not embraced by the scientific community. I know this well, as this was one of the reasons my first book, The Secret for Teens Revealed[v] couldn't be taught in our schools when I first began working with students. Jeff Kleck from EP 246[vi] circled Kirlian Photography in the second chapter of my book, and wrote “science can't prove that!” Well, with all due respect to those who think that are thoughts cannot influence our future, they can with GDV technology that we can find all over Pubmed articles, showing that we all have an energy field and we are all connected and “can influence each other.” Konstantin Korotkov calls this electrophonics and explains it's origin that goes back to 1777 in Brazil and then Russia. I typed Gas Discharge Photography into Pubmed, and found hundreds of articles, including one that showed “Applications of GDV Imaging in Health and Disease”[vii] and in the Journal of Education, Health and Sport, found an article “The Parameters of GDV (biophotonics) correlated with parameters of acupuncture points, EEG, HRV and hormones.”[viii] This advanced GDV Technology shows “that we have energy fields…it can show physical energy distribution, emotional energy distribution, psychological energy distribution, and our relationship of our inner state to the outer world.”[ix] Of course, I jumped at the chance to find Dr. Korotkov, and asked if he would come on the podcast, so I could ask him some questions, and dive deeper into understanding how our thoughts, and energy fields can influence ourselves, others, our mental and physical health, and our futures. Stay tuned, he has agreed to an interview. In the meantime, he did let me know that he will be hosting the Bio-Well Congress in Orlando, Florida November 10-12th at the Orlando Hilton Hotel. So it looks like the answers to all the questions that I asked above, that I've wondered over the years, would be a solid, scientifically proven YES, to all of them, and Dr. Joe Dispenza has been teaching this for years. Before I share why I wanted to cover this topic today, I've got to begin with the fact that we are all connected, and have an energy field. Dr. Korotkov has been searching for ways to bridge the gap from the unseen world of energy, with scientific principles, and says “there is clear evidence that we influence each other.”[x] This is something I always felt, but never really understood. I noticed certain things when I was in my late 20s, and thought they would be too “woo woo” to share on the podcast, and this is definitely one of them. I began to notice some people would have brighter lights around them, and appeared to me to be Supernatural like Dr. Dispenza would say. I could pick out people in the seminar room when I worked with Bob Proctor who I could see had this bright light around them, and when this light was paired with a belief for what they were doing, was the recipe for them to achieve outstanding results in the world. It happened time and time again. I remember the first person I saw shining brighter than all of us sitting at a table, and it just made me wonder What's different about that person than the rest of us? How are they thinking and feeling? Why do I see and feel their energy? When I went to work with Proctor in the seminar industry, I had the opportunity to put these questions into practice, and became highly developed with this superpower. When I see or feel this heightened sense of energy in people today, (this is not a common occurrence) but when I notice it, I'll share it with them, at the risk of them thinking I'm completely crazy. The other day, my husband and I were out for dinner, and I saw it with the young woman who was serving us. She looked like she was in her 20s, or maybe early 30s, and she was hustling like I've never seen. Then I noticed this young woman was pregnant! When she was took our order she sat down next to me to catch her breath, and it was here that I told her “You know you're special, right?” She said “what do you mean?” And I told her what I could see. She looked at me with some level of disbelief, but also another level that she knew what I was talking about. I told her to find my podcast, and listen to episode 66 so she could see where my path began, and she wrote it down, thanked me, and then told me to look up the book Becoming Supernatural.[xi] While driving home that night I did, and discovered where Dr. Joe Dispenza's path began. So for today's episode #306 “Decoding Our Thoughts: How to Build a Better Future with the Power of Our Mind” I dedicate this to the young woman who hustles every night. She knows who she is. When most of us were pregnant, we could barely stand on our feet. Not this woman. She knows how to create her future, and it starts with the belief she has in herself, and her dreams, that is strong enough that I could see it and feel it just merely by her sitting next to me. I hope she finds the path that's meant for her, and lives every moment of peace, joy and abundance that she deserves for herself and her baby who's on the way. Then I also wish this for you, the listener. I hope you'll look at Dr. Dispenza's work, that's backed by Dr. Korotkov's GDV technology, and recognize how far they both have come to share these evidence-based ideas into the world and then see how YOU can use them to improve your own health, results and future, keeping in mind that: Our current, present day thoughts can impact our future. We can impact our own health (and results for that matter) purely by what we think. Our energy can influence another person, and someone else's energy can influence ours. Our energy be felt, and it also can be seen with devices that measure this information scientifically. Just like some other books we have looked at, I want to break down Dr. Dispenza's Becoming Supernatural into a few episodes. On today's episode, we will cover: Chapter 1: Opening the Door to the Supernatural and Chapter 2 The Present Moment. At the end we will look at specific strategies of where we can begin, so that we can build a solid belief in ourselves, and our future potential. Chapter 1: Opening the Door to the Supernatural This book opens up with a Foreword from Dr. Dawson Church, who we interviewed on EP #98[xii] who covered “The Science Behind Using Meditation.” Dr. Church's interview[xiii] has now become our MOST watched YouTube interview, showing me that the world wants to understand how meditation can take us to new heights. I've also mentioned often that The Silva Method Series[xiv] is our most listened to podcast episode, all focused on using the power of our mind, to take us to new heights. Dr. Church writes in his Foreword that “Joe stretches the horizons of possibility by extending the boundaries of the unknown.” (Becoming Supernatural) Joe Dispenza opens up this book with a fascinating story of how he knew he was wasting his time, energy and talent worrying about what other people thought of him, and how he took an accident he had on his bike, where he was told he would never walk again, and used the power of his own mind, through a guided meditation, to heal his body. “9.5 weeks after the accident, (he) got up, and walked back into (his) life—without having any body cast or surgeries” (Becoming Superhuman Ch 1). What I noticed with this first chapter was that Dr. Dispenza took us back to when he didn't have the belief in himself, or his own ideas. He was still worried about what other people thought of him. His belief happened over time, when he let go (surrendered) to what others thought of him, and moved forward, full force, with the belief in his own future potential. He had to let go, or break free. I remember Proctor would say, “Make a committed decision” when doing something. Don't ask others, “what do you think” and go in half way, you must DECIDE to move forward, with everything you've got. Then he'd remind us of the Latin Root of the word decide which a combination of two words. De=off and caedere= cut and he'd remind us when we decide something that we cut off all ties to any other option. Decide and move forward, never looking back. When I was reading this chapter, it was very clear that Dr. Dispenza didn't find it easy to heal his body. He explained how pain-stakingly difficult it was to replicate this meditative experience he had where he was able to “see” and “feel” things in this special state called hypnogogic sleep, in between sleep and wakefulness. I'm not sure where those of you who are listening are with your meditation practice as we are all at different levels, but I understood what Dr. Dispenza was saying. Sometimes you want to sit down and force something to happen, but that's never how it works. You have to be completely relaxed, your body in a state of let go or surrender, and then the magic happens… That's exactly what Joe Dispenza did to open up the door to becoming Supernatural. Once he broke free and made a committed decision to teach this work, he described how he would live into his future potential by healing his own body first, and then showing others how to do the same with his seminars and workshops. He explained how he: “selected that intentional future and married it with the elevated emotion of what it would be like to be there in that future, in the present moment (his) body began to believe it was actually in that future experience. As (his) ability to observe (his) desired destiny (with intention) got sharper and sharper, (his) cells began to reorganize themselves. I began to signal new genes in new ways, and then (his) body really started getting better faster.” (Ch 1, Becoming Superhuman). TO PUT THIS INTO ACTION: MAKE A COMMITTED DECISION Have you made a committed decision to whatever it is that you want to do? Not one foot in, the other out, testing the ground? Are you fully committed like Dr. Dispenza was when he let go of worrying about what others thought of him? REMEMBER: “Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness… the moment one definitely commits oneself then Providence moves, too. All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred… boldness has genius, power, and magic in it. Begin it now.” Johann Wolfgang von Goethe Chapter 2: The Present Moment The way a person thinks and feels creates a person's state of well-being. We know this can be scientifically proven by Dr. Korotkov's GDV technology just by measuring the energy field from our finger tips, he can with accuracy, tell us what's going on inside that person's body (emotionally, psychologically) and then determine our relationship with this inner state to the outer world. Or in other words, what we THINK, on the inside, will show up on the outside. Dr. Dispenza says it this way explaining that “the familiar past will sooner or later become the predictable future.” (Ch 2, Becoming Supernatural). I heard Proctor explain it another way by explaining that “our results were a compilation of our thoughts, feelings and actions” and he could look at someone, and determine their level of thinking, purely based on the results they were obtaining. Now the funny part about this, is that many teachers explain the same thing, just a slightly different way. To determine a person's level of thinking, Proctor would ask them “what's the most amount of money you've ever made in one year” because he would quickly be able to see that person's level of awareness. He would say that there's no difference in ability of someone who earns $50K/year to someone who earns $50 Million/year, except the level of awareness of how to do it. Our thoughts, in the present moment, determine our current reality. If we don't like the reality we are in, it starts with changing our thoughts. To do this, we've often got to get out of our own way, and start to study and understand how our thoughts, feelings and actions create the world we live in. We've all heard that insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, and expecting a different result. The same idea with our results. “If we keep the same routine as yesterday, it makes sense that your tomorrow is going to be a lot like your yesterday. Your future is just a rerun of your past. That's because your yesterday is creating your tomorrow.” (Ch 2 Becoming Superhuman). Whatever way we describe it, we will not be able to change our results in the future, unless we do something different in the NOW. We must be able to choose different thoughts (towards a new goal), feelings, and actions, to create a NEW, unknown event in our future. I've drawn out Dr. Dispenza's Predictable Timeline from Chapter 2, that shows us how “the familiar past will sooner or later become the predictable future” (Dispenza) or that we will never be able to suddenly jump to a new salary for example, without first of all thinking/feeling/acting in an entirely NEW way in the present moment. A NEW, unknown event, requires NEW thoughts/feelings/actions in the present moment. The ONLY way to change our future, is to change our current state of being. IMAGE CREDIT: Andrea hand drew the image from Chapter 2 Becoming Superhuman TO PUT THIS INTO ACTION: DO YOU KNOW WHAT ENERGY YOU ARE BROADCASING OUT TO THE WORLD? This is where the hustling pregnant server comes to mind. She was working hard, doing her thing, and doing everything she knew how to do to change her future in some way. I'm not sure what her vision for her future really is, but I could clearly see and feel she was hustling to get somewhere, and I had no doubt in my mind that she would arrive, exactly where she wanted to go. She was broadcasting it out loudly and clearly to the world, and I know I'm not the only one who could see it. What about you? Are you doing everything you can in the present moment to create an unknown event in your future? Are you keeping your thoughts positive, doing everything you know how to do, with your vision held on the screen of your mind? If you've asked others for feedback on the actions you are taking, what do they say? Is there anything else you can do to improve? In your heart you will know if you are giving your all from the minute you wake up, to the moment you close your eyes and go to sleep. This is the daily grind we talked about on EP 38[xv] that's well known in the sports world. While working on a daily basis, and keeping our energy levels high, over time, with this effort, and being focused on what we are broadcasting out into the world, (making sure we are thinking/feeling/acting in a positive way) we will eventually create the space for an unknown, or unpredictable event that will take us to new heights of achievement. It happens in the sales industry when you work really hard and get what we sometimes call a “blue-bird sale” where someone calls you and says “I have money to spend, and must spend it by the end of the day” and you never could have predicted this occurring, but you had the space for it, and you're ready for it. Or you run into someone unexpectedly who connects you to someone else, who advances you in some way, to where you want to go. It's an unknown event that many people would say “woah, how on the earth did that happen?” Dr. Dispenza and other teachers would say that it was created, predictably, by doing certain things, a certain way. REVIEW AND CONCLUSION: To review and conclude today's EP #306 on “Decoding Our Thoughts: How to Build a Better Future with the Power of Our Mind” we looked at the following questions: Can our current, present day thoughts impact our future? Can we impact our own health (and results for that matter) purely by what we think? Can my energy influence another person, and can someone else's energy influence mine? Can someone's energy be felt? Can our energy field be seen? Then we: ✔ Were introduced to Dr. Joe Dispenza and his book Becoming Supernatural with a brief introduction to how I was forbidden to ever cover Dr. Dispenza's work, and why I'm covering it today. ✔ Learned about the Russian Scientist Dr. Konstantin Korotkov, and his GDV invention (that he calls elecrophonic imaging) that measures our physical, emotional and psychological energy distribution that provides “clear evidence that we influence each other.” We will learn more about how this device maps our inner state of mind with our outer world and much more from Dr. Korotkov on our NEXT episode (first week in October). ✔ Looked at Becoming Supernatural Chapter 1: Opening the Door to the Supernatural with some thoughts for you to put this chapter into practice in your daily life. Do you know what you REALLY want? Have you made a committed DECISION towards your goals? Have you let go of what others think of you, and surrendered to doing what it takes to achieve your goals? ✔ Looked at Becoming Supernatural Chapter 2: The Present Moment, with some thoughts for you to put this chapter into practice in your daily life. Are we aware of the energy that you broadcast out into the world? (If not, have you asked others for feedback on how you show up in the workplace or family life?) Are we doing everything possible to move the needle towards your goals (or whatever it is that you are working on)? Have we made space for unknown events to occur in your life to move you forward? And with this introduction to Dr. Dispenza's work, we will learn how the tools he has been using to gather the scientific evidence he needed to prove that our thoughts REALLY do matter for our health, results and future, were invented. I'm hoping to have interviewed Dr. Korotkov by the first week in October, so we will miss a week while I'm traveling, next week, but looking forward to what we will uncover, and see you in October.

Get The Superhuman Manifesto - 75 Ways to Supercharge Your Growth https://www.100daychallenge.com/super-human/ To become a super productive human being…someone who plays a superior game, someone who dominates their competition, and someone who operates at the peak of their potential…YOU MUST BECOME AN EXTREMIST. The two rules for becoming an extremist are: 1. You cannot have extreme, superhuman productivity without taking extreme measures. 2. Extreme, superhuman productivity can only begin with a zero tolerance for unproductive activity. You get out of life what you are willing to tolerate and low performers tolerate way too much unproductive behavior, habits and excuses from themselves. To confirm with conviction…extreme, superhuman productivity can only begin with a zero tolerance for unproductive activity. The truth is easy to understand intellectually…however, execution is the only thing that provides a true understanding of this truth. Self-awareness followed by immediate self-correction is the key to achieving extreme, superhuman productivity. Whenever you find yourself acting in a way that is grossly incongruent with your stated goals…take immediate action to correct your behavior.

In the spirit of holiday season, we'd like to take you on a rewind and listen back to our conversation with Dr. Sahar Yousef back in Season One, an important conversation about our stress and internal storytelling. We hope it will help us all understand and cope with our stress and internal voices better. --- We ALL have racing thoughts and narratives about ourselves that we can't shut down - our "identity-based beliefs". How do we use that to our advantage? What is "stress" physiologically speaking? Is "video fatigue" real, and why are Botox sales through the roof since COVID? This week, we unpack it all with Dr. Sahar Yousef. Dr. Sahar Yousef is a cognitive neuroscientist as well as faculty at UC Berkeley's Haas School of Business. She has conducted research on brain plasticity, human performance enhancement, and cognitive training. Outside of the academic world, Sahar runs “Becoming Superhuman”, a training and consulting firm which teaches busy professionals who think for a living how to get their most important work done, in less time, with less stress. Her work has been featured in Forbes, The Wall Street Journal, Wired, and Business Insider.

What has been months in the making reaches its unbelievable conclusion (if it wasn't so normal). After Tory saw this guest at Dr. Joe Dispenza's retreat, she knew they would connect on this podcast. And it might be the most important conversation this podcast has had yet. Dr. Joe describes Monique as one of his super human geniuses - a normal human doing supernatural things. It took multiple cancer diagnoses to bring Monique to this work. Along with the documentary Heal, Monique went on a long journey to learn about the healing ability already inside her. But at first, healing herself seemed harder than sitting through a chemo treatment. Then a scan showed stage-four metastatic cancer despite rounds of radiation and chemotherapy, Monique knew it was time to try something different. And meditation became her medication. This is Part 2 of a two-part episode exploring Monique's journey that she describes as her “mystical experience.” In this episode, Monique goes all in. This is the first time she has shared her full story publicly. So get ready! Monique teaches why you can't have a bad meditation and why YOU have to be the most important person in your life. On top of all the goodness in this episode, she also shares how her emotional support cat for her son - missing for 15 months - returned! This conversation will rock you to your core.

This has been months in the making. Tory saw this guest in December when she attended Dr. Joe Dispenza's retreat in Cancun. After her talk, Tory knew she had to find this incredible superhuman to learn more about healing one's body (and bank account, and job…). Dr. Joe describes Monique as one of his super human geniuses - a normal human doing supernatural things. It took multiple cancer diagnoses to bring Monique to this work. Along with the documentary Heal, Monique went on a long journey to learn about the healing ability already inside her. But at first, healing herself seemed a lot harder than sitting through a chemo treatment. Then a scan showed stage-four metastatic cancer despite rounds of radiation and chemotherapy, Monique knew it was time to try something different. And meditation became her medication. This is Part 1 of a two-part episode exploring Monique's journey that she describes as her “mystical experience.” It gets crazy. These episodes will leave you with a clear understanding of how to change YOUR sacred, beautiful life. Let's get started.

In this episode of Before IT Happened, entrepreneur, storytelling coach and bestselling author Park Howell joins the show to discuss the ‘Story Cycle System' that he created to apply the full potential of ‘the hero's journey' to business and entrepreneurship. There is endless competition for our attention and it forces businesses to become acutely aware of the audience they're serving. This awareness leads to the possibility of crafting powerful stories. So join us and discover what good brand storytelling is all about and how you can make it come to life! Before any world-changing innovation, there was a moment, an event, a realization that sparked the idea before it happened. This is a podcast about that moment — about that idea. Before IT Happened takes you on a journey with the innovators who imagined — and are still imagining — our future. Join host Donna Loughlin as her guests tell their stories of how they brought their visions to life. JUMP STRAIGHT INTO: (01:39) - How Park Howell fell in love with music: “I've applied everything I've learned in [music] to the work I've done over the past 35 years in advertising and branding because everything is about flow and rhythm.” (07:45) - Park's early approaches to the art of storytelling - “I realized we've only been telling them intuitively, we've never told them intentionally, meaning I've never used a framework.” (11:09) - The origins of the ‘Story Cycle System' - “While he was going to school there, I said, ‘Parker, send me your textbooks since I'm paying for them. I want to know what Chapman University teaches you as a storyteller.” (15:10) - Redefining the ‘Hero's Journey' - “Depending on where your audience is with you in the story cycle system journey, you want to share with them appropriate stories that they can relate to.” (21:51) - How Park guides people to apply his framework to their brand's story - “Take us to that problem, share that conflict or that contradiction. When you don't, you end up not telling a story. You think you're telling a story. All you're telling is the exposition of that story.” (24:27) - Focusing on the problem you're solving for your audience - “I want to know what this actually does for me. What do you actually make happen in my world? There's no list of features and functions that's going to sell that for you.” (26:42) - Crafting a focused narrative - “You're going to try to sell lots of different things in that ABT, but I want you to always boil it down to a singular narrative and that in this case is the companionship.” (32:00) - The ABT, a versatile tool - “I've been using this ABT in my emails. I've cut my email writing time down by two thirds. People who receive them actually understand what I'm asking of them. And I have a built-in call to action in my therefore statement.” EPISODE RESOURCES: Connect with Park Howell on https://twitter.com/ParkHowell?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor (Twitter), https://www.instagram.com/parkhowell/?hl=en (Instagram) and https://www.linkedin.com/in/parkhowell/ (Linkedin) Watch Park's Ted Talk: https://www.ted.com/talks/park_howell_start_looking_for_your_scenes_and_your_story_will_find_you (Start Looking for Your Scenes and Your Story Will Find You) Read Park's books: https://businessofstory.com/brandbewitchery/ (Brand Bewitchery) and http://narrativegym.com/ (The Narrative Gym) Learn more about https://businessofstory.com/about/ (The Business of Story) Listen to Before IT Happened's: https://www.beforeithappened.com/podcast-episodes/becoming-superhuman-with-designer-and-entrepreneur-donald-burlock-jr-episode-4 (Becoming Superhuman with Designer and Entrepreneur Donald Burlock, Jr.) Thank you for listening!

We ALL have racing thoughts and narratives about ourselves that we can't shut down - our "identity-based beliefs". How do we use that to our advantage? What is "stress" physiologically speaking? Is "video fatigue" real, and why are Botox sales through the roof since COVID? This week, we unpack it all with Dr. Sahar Yousef. Dr. Sahar Yousef is a cognitive neuroscientist as well as faculty at UC Berkeley's Haas School of Business. She has conducted research on brain plasticity, human performance enhancement, and cognitive training. Outside of the academic world, Sahar runs “Becoming Superhuman”, a training and consulting firm which teaches busy professionals who think for a living how to get their most important work done, in less time, with less stress. Her work has been featured in Forbes, The Wall Street Journal, Wired, and Business Insider.
