Most people live by memorized habits. Their body becomes the subconscious mind—predictable, emotional, and reactive. To break free, you must become conscious of your unconscious self.“To change is to think greater than your environment.” → Start observing your habits, emotional reactions, and triggers. Only then can you rewrite the script.

Break the Habit of Being the Old You

Meditation helps you disconnect from your habitual identity and enter the subconscious. This is where real change happens—beyond the analytical mind.  “When you change your energy, you change your life.”  → Practice tuning into a new version of yourself daily: calm, grateful, empowered.

Rewire Through Meditation

When you vividly imagine a future, your brain begins wiring it as if it already happened. Athletes, performers, and healers use mental rehearsal to create real-life outcomes. “Your brain doesn’t know the difference between the real and the vividly imagined.”→ Spend time daily visualizing who you want to be, how you want to feel, and the life you wish to live.﻿

Mental Rehearsal Builds Reality

Gratitude isn’t just a reaction—it’s a creative force. When you feel thankful for a future not yet realized, you align with its possibility. “Gratitude is the ultimate state of receivership.” → Visualize your goal as already achieved, then feel deep gratitude as if it’s already yours.﻿

The Power of Gratitude in Advance

When your heart and brain are in sync (coherence), your body becomes highly receptive to healing and transformation.

Coherence is the Secret

﻿Every thought sends a signal to your body. Repeating the same negative thoughts keeps your body in a state of stress and imbalance. Conversely, thinking new, empowering thoughts can create new emotional and physical experiences.  “The same thoughts always lead to the same choices, the same choices lead to the same behaviors.”→ Change your thoughts, change your chemistry, change your life.

You Think, You Become

We often replay emotional experiences, reinforcing past pain. But by doing this, we signal the body to stay in the past. “You can signal new genes in new ways by embracing elevated emotions.” → Use joy, gratitude, love, and inspiration to reprogram your cells.﻿

Emotions Reinforce Identity

Countless cases show people healing from chronic illness after changing thoughts, emotions, and beliefs. The mind can be medicine. → You are not doomed by genetics or diagnosis. ﻿“Once you change your internal state, you’ll see evidence in your external life.”﻿

The Mind Heals the Body

Don’t wait to become your ideal self. Embody that version today—in emotions, habits, and thoughts. → Act, think, feel as if the future is here. ﻿“Your new personality creates your new personal reality.”﻿

Live as the Future You—Now

The placebo effect proves that the mind can influence the body. When people believe they’re receiving real treatment—even if it’s a sugar pill—they often heal. Why? Because belief activates internal healing systems.  “The act of focusing our attention on an intention begins to change the brain.” – Joe Dispenza  → Your thoughts are not passive—they cause measurable biological changes, from immune responses to neural rewiring.

Belief Creates Biology

Most blocks are beliefs you never chose. Question every limiting thought. → Ask: “Is this belief true—or inherited, conditioned, or outdated?” ﻿“The placebo effect is the proof that belief is powerful.”﻿

Disbelieve Your Limiting Beliefs

The brain often lives in the past or future. True transformation happens only when you're fully present.  “The present moment is the only time you can change your body, your mind, and your life.”  → Practice mindfulness. Detach from regrets or worries. All power lies in now.

Overcome Time by Living in the Now

Your personality—how you think, act, and feel—shapes your external life. To change your reality, shift your personality. “If you want a new reality, you have to become someone else.”→ Reflect: What traits no longer serve you? Replace them with empowering behaviors and beliefs.

Your Personality = Your Personal Reality

Your body reacts as if your thoughts are facts. If you think stressful thoughts, your body releases stress hormones—even if there's no real danger. This loop wires the body to expect more stress.  “Your body doesn’t know the difference between an experience and the emotion you create by thought alone.” → Meditation, breathwork, and emotional awareness help you interrupt this cycle.

The Body is the Mind

Every thought emits a signal. Like a radio, you must tune in to a frequency that matches your desired outcome. → You attract what you broadcast.“Energy flows where attention goes.”﻿

Your Thoughts Are a Frequency

"You Are the Placebo" reveals how your thoughts, beliefs, and emotions can rewire your brain, heal your body, and transform your life—without external substances. It’s a guide to becoming the cause, not the effect.

Is it possible to heal by thought alone—without drugs or surgery? The truth is that it happens more often than you might expect. In You Are the Placebo, best-selling author, international speaker, chiropractor, and renowned researcher of epigenetics, quantum physics, & neuroscience, Dr. Joe Dispenza shares numerous documented cases of those who reversed cancer, heart disease, depression, crippling arthritis, and even the tremors of Parkinson’s disease by believing in a placebo. Similarly, Dr. Joe tells of how others have gotten sick and even died the victims of a hex or voodoo curse—or after being misdiagnosed with a fatal illness. Belief can be so strong that pharmaceutical companies use double- and triple-blind randomized studies to try to exclude the power of the mind over the body when evaluating new drugs. “In his paradigm-altering book, You Are the Placebo, Dr. Joe Dispenza catapults us beyond thinking of the placebo effect as an anomaly. Through 12 concise chapters that read like a true-life scientific thriller, Dispenza gives us rock-solid reasons to accept the game-changer of our lives: that the placebo effect is actually us, proving to ourselves the greatest possibilities of healing, miracles, and longevity! I love this book and look forward to a world where the secret of the placebo is the foundation of everyday life.” — Gregg Braden, New York Times best-selling author of Deep Truth and The Divine Matrix   Chapters Include: Foreward by Dawson Church, Ph.D. Part I. Is It Possible? A Brief History of the Placebo The Placebo Effect in the Brain The Placebo Effect in the Body How Thoughts Change the Brain and the Body Suggestibility Attitudes, Beliefs, and Perceptions The Quantum Mind Three Stories of Personal Transformation Information to Transformation: Proof That You Are the Placebo Part II: Transformation Meditation Preparation Changing Beliefs and Perceptions Meditation Becoming Supernatural Dr. Joe does more than simply explore the history and the physiology of the placebo effect. He asks the question: "Is it possible to teach the principles of the placebo, and without relying on any external substance, produce the same internal changes in a person’s health and ultimately in his or her life?" Then he shares scientific evidence (including color brain scans) of amazing healings from his workshops, in which participants learn his consciousness shifting model of personal transformation, based on practical applications of the so-called placebo effect. The book ends with a "how-to" calming meditation for changing limiting beliefs and mental perceptions that hold us back—the first step in healing. You Are the Placebo combines the latest research in neuroscience, biology, psychology, hypnosis, behavioral conditioning, and quantum physics to demystify the workings of the placebo effect . . . and show how the seemingly impossible can become possible. “I discovered that if I could teach people the scientific model of transformation (bringing in a little quantum physics to help them understand the science of possibility); combine it with the latest information in neuroscience, neuroendocrinology, epigenetics, and psychoneuroimmunology; give them the right kind of instruction; and provide the opportunity to apply that information, then they would experience a transformation... This book is about: empowering you to realize that you have all the biological and neurological machinery to do exactly that. My goal is to demystify these concepts with the new science of the way things really are so that it is within the reach of more people to change their internal states in order to create positive changes in their health and in their external world.” — Dr. Joe Dispenza
