Please note, this criticism is not to say that Dispenza or “ You Are The Placebo” do not contain positive information. How would that person act? What habits would that person have? What would the do? What would they say? What an amazing book!!! If someone told you that you could heal yourself simply by using your mind--even cancer--would you believe or would you laugh? While I've always been a big believer in the power of human mind to do both bad (destroy our body via stress, for instance) and good (to at least reverse that), I would've been suspicious to say the least. But a very close friend of mine recommended this book and bought it for me because stress had been ravaging my body and i've been getting all kinds of things. She has been battling progressive multiple sclerosis for years. She read three of Joe's books and used his meditation techniques for nine months. Her latest MRI results showed no lesions on her spine which she'd had for a very long time. Yes, she managed to change her body!

He emphasizes the point that if we want to heal from something, we need to signal new genes in new ways to create new results. But the autopsy revealed that it was not cancer and neither pneumonia he had contracted that killed him. However, if you’ve read any of his previous works, such as “Evolve Your Brain” or “Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself,” then you’ll likely find that there’s not all that much new content here. If you’re a die-hard fan of Dispenza’s, then this will be nothing to worry about, but if you’re just a “regular” fan, you might find this one to be frustratingly “too much of the same old thing.” The reality of the placebo effect is undisputed. We have to test our drugs against placebos because the impact is so prevalent and proven.If you’re not experienced Dispenza recommends you do the first part for a week, then one and two for a second week, and then all together in the third week. You must become conscious of the unconscious behaviors you’ve been choosing to demonstrate that have led to the same experiences, and then you must make new choices, take new actions, and create new experiences.”

Your brain and body don’t know the difference between having an actual experience in your life and just thinking about the experience—neurochemically, it’s the same.”When you feel an emotion, you can ultimately bypass your neocortex—the seat of your conscious mind—and activate your autonomic nervous system. Therefore, as you get beyond your thinking brain, you move into a part of the brain where health is regulated, maintained, and executed. So” You are the Placebo Dr. Joe Dispenza takes an incredible look at the power of our minds over our bodies. of 5 stars 2 of 5 stars 3 of 5 stars 4 of 5 stars 5 of 5 stars You Are the Placebo: Making Your Mind Matter by Dr. Dispenza, Joe And can you teach your body emotionally what it would feel like to believe in this way . . . to be empowered . . . to be moved by your own greatness . . . to be invincible . . . to have courage . . . to be in love with life . . . to feel unlimited . . . to live as if your prayers are already answered? . . .”
