Joe Dispenza on Mindfulness properly understood

The video below is an excellent one on the cognitive processes involved with how we can alter our state of being. If we believe that our thoughts are our destiny, we are thinking in the past. Consequently, we are constantly doing the same thing repetitiously and this becomes the routine and program. When change happens, subconsciously we become hardwired to believe certain things. While we can say, I want to be happy and free, our body says otherwise as it is the repository of past and triggers our mind. He argues that you have to get past the analytical mind in order to be truly free. In order to get past the analytic mind, one has to enter into a meditative state and calm the body.
​
All of us relive traumatic events, the more we connect to that event we connect to those emotional experiences and we then feel within our body the intensity of those events. That, then, creates a mood and  emotional reaction. If we keep that going that creates a temperament and if it continues it becomes a personality trait.

Most of us therefore live 70 % of time in that space and live in fear. We prepare for fear. We are not been able to move from that event and we become addicted to them. We then connect to those events and the chemistry of the brain unloads and this has an impact on our body.

The hardest part of change is making a different choice and that is going to feel uncomfortable. Emotions trigger thoughts which connect to the body. The body then influences the mind in a reciprocal pattern which creates the same experience. Our body becomes connected to the unconscious. Being in the unknown is fearful for our body.

​The best way to create the future is to create it. Rehearse the action of what you want. Most of us our addicted to our environment and past. To get past this we need to disconnect from bodily senses. Less sensory information means less sensory environment and this can help us become free. 

Waiting for something outside of us means that we are always living in lack. The Newtonian model is about predictability. The Quantam is when you start feeling whole and free. You then create your world and reality.

    My Pensées

    The title of this blog is an allusion to the famous work of Blaise Pascal.  This blog represents the variety of my interests and thoughts on any given day and are  strung together, like Pascal's Pensees, in no particular order. I work in the field of mental health,  education, and human rights. I write and am a human rights advocate. I enjoy poetry, jazz, spirituality, politics and a potpourri of other interests that you will see reflected in this blog.
