I started the Never Sick series because in January
I got really, really sick and I vowed to myself
I never want to get sick again.
I used to have the belief system that told me that
if anybody was around me, I was going to get sick.
If a coworker or my employee was sick I would tell them,
“Stay home, even if you have a minor cough, stay home,
“I don’t want to be around you ’cause I’m going to
“get sick.”
And, as a result, I got sick a lot.
And so I created the Never Sick series because I wanted
to gift myself and also gift you guys the ability to
improve our immune systems and never get sick.
The first video I was was on (mumbles),
you guys can check that out.
It was about using breathing techniques and using
the cold therapy to help you not get sick.
I’ve been using that, I’ve also been using just my own
belief system and the good news is, three months later,
I still haven’t gotten sick.
We’ve been through a Canadian winter,
crazy one with ups and down temperature,
I’ve been traveling, been around sick children,
and I haven’t gotten sick yet.
Fingers crossed.
And I wanted to share a new video with you guys today
about how to use your mind to control your beliefs
and control your illness and sicknesses.
I haven’t fully tested it on myself yet,
but I’m going to be going through the process and I’d
love to know what you guys think; if you’re learning
from it, if you’re going to apply it, if you’ve tried it
and gotten results to not get sick by using your
belief system and psychology.
And as always, guys, if you hear something that really
resonates with you, please leave it down in the comments
below, put quotes around it so other people can be
inspired, as well, and when you write it down you’re
much more likely to lock it in, as well.
Enjoy.
(upbeat music)
– Hey Gary I’m sick today and I was just curious
if you ever get sick?
Maybe you really are bionic man.
If you do get sick, how do you handle that?
How do you hustle when you’re sick?
Really sick.
– Ryan, first of all, I hope you feel better.
Big shout out Lizzie Vaynerchuk because in the last
11 years that I’ve been married, I’ve not been sick.
And think it has a lot to do with the fact that Lizzie
tries to get me to wash my hands and the fact that
I don’t have a draft coming in like I had in my old
apartment, which I think caught me a couple times.
I mean, you’re talking to an old school eastern European
kid who actually thinks that getting sick and being sick
is actually psychology.
I think the brain is the most powerful tool.
Like, I know the answer to this is not true,
but I do feel like, I’d be lying if I didn’t think that
there’s some way that I’m stopping myself from getting sick.
Like in the same way that I used to be able to get myself
sick to get out of school.
And I don’t mean like, “Oh, my tummy hurts.”
I mean in this weird, yeah I’m going somewhere,
I’ve never said this out loud, this is actually even
scary to say out loud.
I’m so convinced that the brain is this powerful.
I used to be able to create a temperature.
And I know that every logically person, including myself,
I literally just said, “Bullshit.”
But I saw it.
I mean, I’m sure sometimes I put it up to the lamp and
that’s how I did it, but there was a couple of times
where I would just psyche my–
Even right now, I just started doing it and my stomach
turned a little bit.
I’m not kidding.
Guys, the brain is a sick thing.
So I guess the answer to the final question is,
you don’t hustle when you get sick.
In the same way you don’t hustle when you get sleep.
You know we’ve got that quote card that did really well,
right, that card where I’m like,
it’s not what you do, it’s not how many hours you’re
awake, it’s what’s in them.
I’m thrilled to get six or seven hours of sleep.
I love when people think I’m a three or four hour guy,
I’ll take eight every night.
Because in those other 16 I will dominate your face.
I love people who sleep four hours, but like chill.
And chilling is like just not doing something important
for 40 minutes or having a conversation on the trading
room floor for 30 minutes about the big game or
what the f– happened in the Oscar’s last night.
Who gives a shit, execute.
And so, by the way, who gives a shit for me,
I’m purely focused on my thing.
Some people like 30 minutes of talking about the Oscar’s
’cause it breaks up their day, that’s their rest.
You do you.
But let me say this, when you’re sick or when you’re
sleeping, rest.
Your body’s telling you something.
And so, really, maybe I was sick once in the last
11 years, but I was pumped.
Let me just say that again because I don’t know if
everybody understood that.
I literally wish I was sick one day this year.
I would really enjoy the time off.
I enjoy relaxing, the kids come,
usually comes home at three.
It would be fun, it would be fun.
But there’s something subconsciously that’s really
trying to not allow me to do that.
In a world where I take 100 plus flights,
that place is like–
You know, remember how a couple episodes I said that
the 20 to 30 year old Gary Vee is soft compared to me?
That guy did get sick.
Now I don’t and I do think it has a lot to do with my
focus on it.
So I do think you can out hustle your sickness to
some degree.
But when you succumb to it, because at some level
we all do, I think you need to just relax and enjoy it.
– I was teaching in a medical school.
And I was teaching a concept about genes and everyone,
of course, has heard about genes and they believe that
genes control their lives.
So running in my family is diabetes, Alzheimer’s,
cancer, whatever it is and they say,
oh my goodness, I’m a recipient of such genes and
this is going to be my life.
And this is a belief of victimization,
a victimization of heredity.
“It’s running in my heredity and now you’re going to
“get these genes and I can’t control it.”
There’s a new biology that switches this whole thing
around because it reveals that genes don’t control
our lives.
It’s our perceptions and our response to the environment,
it’s the environment that influences genes.
Well the relevance about that is since we can change
our perceptions and we can change our environment,
then we’re not victims, we’re actually masters.
But we have to know that, we have to really come from an
understanding that we are creating our lives because
if your belief is you’re a victim,
it’s belief is translated into biology,
you become victim if that’s what you believe.
– Yes, sir.
So you kind of prove scientifically and biologically
the proof of that?
That we in fact are in control of our genes,
that our genes aren’t controlling our lives?
Can you give us a brief sort of bird’s eye view
of how you proved that truth?
– Yeah, as a wonderful simple experiment,
about 47 years ago I was cloning stem cells.
Now, back 47 years ago there was only a handful of us
in the whole world who even knew what a stem cell is.
A stem cell is a embryonic cell in your body.
And the reason why we have all these embryonic cells
is because cells have a life and they die and if we
can’t replace the cells then it won’t be very long before
all our cells die and then we’re gone.
So a stem cell is a multi-potential embryonic cell.
Here’s the work, simple, I get one stem cell,
put it in a dish by itself and it divides every 10 hours.
So first one and then two, four, eight, 16,
and the cells keep going , after a week I’ve got
50,000 cells in the Petri dish,
but here’s the most important point,
they all came from one parent.
So they’re 50,000 genetically identical cells.
Now here’s the experiment.
I take that community and I break them up into three
different Petri dishes and I change the environment
a little bit in each dish.
Now, cells are like fish, they live in a fluid.
So I create like an aquarium with all the things they
need to live in it, that’s called an environment.
And I change the composition of the environment
a little bit in each dish.
What happens is in dish one I get muscle cells,
in dish two I end up with a different environment,
get bone cells, in dish three yet a different environment,
I end up with fat cells.
Well the whole point was this, what controls the fate
of the cells?
And you say, “Well genetics–“
I go, “No, no, they’re all genetically the same.”
So the fate of the cell wasn’t determined by the genetics,
it was determined by the environment.
And so the information in the environment is really
what’s involved with selecting our genes.
So people say, “Okay, that’s really nice,
“you got cells in a plastic dish, what the heck does it
“have to do with me?”
And I go, here’s the fun part, you look in the mirror,
Ty you look, you see this handsome guy looking back,
you say, “That’s Ty, that’s me, and I’m a single human
“being and a single organism.”
I go, a slight misperception, for this reason,
you are not a single entity, you are made out of 50
trillion cells, the cells are the living entity,
you by actual biological definition, you are a community.
So you’re a community of 50 trillion cells.
And so the fun part is, you’re a skin covered Petri dish
with 50 trillion cells inside.
And you have an environment, a culture medium,
and it’s called blood.
And the chemical composition of the blood determines
the fate of the cells.
That’s what happened in my plastic dish.
So to a cell, does it make a difference if it’s in the
plastic dish or the skin dish?
No, it’s still going to read the environment.
So I say, ah then the blood is the culture medium
and the composition of the blood controls the genetics.
And then I go, yeah now here’s the cool part I say,
but as I showed in the Petri dish if I change the
composition of the culture medium,
I change the fate of the cell.
So I say who or what controls the chemical composition
of my blood?
So we go up to the next level,
I say the brain is the chemist.
The brain is what released the chemistry in the blood.
And then you go one more step and you say,
“But what chemicals should the brain release into
“the blood?”
And I go next level up, the mind.
What do you perceive?
What do you see?
What are you looking for?
So for a person I say, here we are, I stand here,
I open up my eyes and I see someone I love.
Well my mind perceives love and translates that through
the brain into chemistry such as dopamine,
the pleasure chemical, oxytocin, the bonding chemical,
vesopressin, attractiveness, growth hormone which
enhances the growth of the cells.
So when a person sees love, experiences love,
the brain releases a cocktail of these wonderful chemicals.
And think about it, when people are in love, they glow,
they’re healthy, they have so much energy.
I say, “Where’d they get that from?”
The culture medium, okay?
But I say, look, same person opens their eyes,
instead of seeing someone they love,
they see something that scares them.
They say, “Do you release the same chemicals in love?”
And I go, no, no, when I perceive the world is
threatening or I’m living in fear I release stress
hormones and I release hormones that control my
immune system, inflammatory agents, these things that
get me ready for fight or flight.
And I go, well here’s the interesting part,
as I said, the fate of the cells is based on the chemistry.
If I take the chemicals released by the brain in love
and put it into a plastic dish with cells,
the cells grow beautifully.
I said, “Okay wait, what about the chemicals that come
“out of the brain of someone in fear?”
I take those chemicals, put that in the culture dish,
the cells stop growing.
And they get into protection.
Protection is close yourself down.
So the idea is this, when you’re in growth,
you’re open to the world and you say,
“Come on, bring it on.”
But when fear or something comes in there,
you close it down, and the chemistry of the fear is
what shuts down the cells, fear kills,
basically what it’s all about.
So basically says this, we always talk about mind body
and those strict fundamental scientists go,
“Mind body (muttering).”
And I go, it’s not a mystery, it’s simple,
the mind is an interpretation of the world,
it causes the brain to release chemistry that matches
the interpretation to coordinate 50 trillion cells
to live in that world.
It’s your emotions, it’s your perceptions,
it’s your beliefs.
These are the sources of the chemicals that end up
controlling the genes.
This is a new science, it’s called epi-genetics.
Because epi-genetics is a revolution of all of our
understanding of science for a very simple reason.
When I was a professor at a medical school we were
teaching the concept of genetics and genetics most
every everybody knows, yes we have genes and the genes
control our traits and that we get the genes from
our parents and so therefore the traits that are
running in our family are passed down to us.
And sometimes it’s a good thing, and sometimes it’s
a bad thing.
(laughing)
You’ve got diseases run in your family the (mumbles),
“Geeze, everybody in my family got cancer,”
and it’s like, am I going to be next?
I’ve go the genes.
So that’s our belief system that we’ve been teaching,
that genes control us.
That makes us victims, as I said, because we didn’t pick
the genes as far as we know, we can’t change the genes,
so whatever they are, they make us.
So people walk around going, “Oh my life is not so good,
“I’ve got these genes.”
Epi means above.
So when I say epi-genetic control I’m literally saying
control above the genes.
It’s the environment that controls it.
That includes not just the real environment,
but our perception of the environment because you could
live in the healthiest of environments,
but if you perceive it to be a threatening world
then your cells receive the perception,
they don’t read the direct world.
Genetic control you’re a victim because the genes
control you.
Epi-genetics is a revolution because it says,
look, if the environment of my perception controls genes,
I’m the one that can change my perception,
I’m the one that can change my environment.
So all of a sudden I’m not locked in,
I am free to change the way I live in the world,
which in turn comes back and changes the genetic readout.
And this is really what’s so profoundly important,
for example, a lot of people talk about the placebo effect.
And they say, “What’s the placebo effect.”
“This pill is going to cure you, it’s the greatest new
“science in the world.”
And I believe that and I take the pill and I get
better and they tell me it was just a sugar pill.
So then the truth is, what healed me?
Well it wasn’t the sugar pill, it was the belief in
the pill.
So everyone says, “Oh yeah, placebo effect,
“you have this wonderful thought and you get better.”
And I say, yeah but here’s the problem,
we’ve only talked about the placebo effect.
There’s another thing called the nocebo effect.
The nocebo effect is what is the consequence of a
negative thought?
And it turns out, it’s equally powerful in controlling
your biology and your genetics as a placebo,
positive thought.
So we talk about, oh yeah placebo, good thoughts create
good health and good life, and then I say,
“Yeah, and a bad thought, a negative thought,
“a nocebo effect can actually kill you.”
It can cause a disease.
If you believe you’re going to get this cancer because
everyone says you’re going to get this cancer and then
your perception is sending cancer thoughts into
your body, the chemistry that comes from the thoughts
to the brain to the body is a chemistry that doesn’t
support health, but it’ll actually lead to your own death.
So all the sudden it’s the power of your perception,
positive or negative, that override your genetics.
Well, this is most amazing because all the sudden you
look around and you say, “But look at all those wonderful
“happy people, and look, they’re not just happy,
“they’re also healthy.”
– Yes.
– And the fact is, yes, they’re sending in chemistry
that the cells will really thrive with.
– In this world it is true that people want
immediate action, that’s the world we live in,
immediate gratification.
So if I’m sick I want something immediately to
handle the issue.
And of course we look to the world of drugs for this
understanding.
But the problem with this is that there are more
effective ways of healing.
Now, the problem with the energy healing is that
it really involves a consciousness, mind,
and our ability to change our belief systems.
Well, this takes a little bit more work than
popping a pill.
And, in fact, I’ll just give my own particular case.
I remember years when I was getting of on this
out of my conventional medical academic background
and coming into this world and I faced a stressful
situation where I got pneumonia.
And I started to realizes at some point and said,
“Okay, I’m going to sit here and grab ahold of this
“with my conscious and my spirit and get my immune
“system all pumped up and work on this.”
And I started to realize that the bacteria were dividing
faster than my ability to control the bacteria.
And so it came a realistic moment, it said yes I know
I can possibly control this, but the effort that
it’s going to take is going to take a little bit more
time than the drugs, so I actually went and bought
the penicillin.
And the significance is, when you need it,
you need it at that moment.
But the issue is, had I not been stressed,
had I taken care of my life a little bit better,
I would not have come to that precipice where
I was forced into taking the drugs.
And so the reality is in switching from a drug-based
reality into an energy medicine spirit-based reality,
we have to go through a learning curve and learn how to
take control of our thoughts, our mind,
and control the biology that we were given.
When we do that, then it’s far better than the drug
world for a very simple reason, there are no side effects.
And so, basically, it says that if you start healing
with spirit and energy, that you get an unencumbered
healing process as compared to dealing with drugs and
the dealing with the myriad side effects that are listed
on all the packages.
So it says both work, but one is far superior to the other.
And yet, I wouldn’t throw out the medication because
when it’s necessary, it’s necessary.
But it’s just a little warning to you when your symptoms
start going up it says pay attention to the symptoms
because the symptoms are really informing you that
you’re not living in harmony or in health and that
the body is telling you this.
So rather than shutting out the symptoms with a drug,
it’s really important for us to take on a learning role
and say, “I am creating the situation and I can un-create
“the situation without the use of drugs.”
– So the genes, and we’re going to talk some science
tonight, but it’s not going to be that difficult,
so bare with me on it because, again,
I don’t want to leave black boxes in here,
empty spaces where you have to have devotion.
I’m going to show you the connection.
The genes, the DNA molecules are found in the cell,
in the individual cell, in a structure called the nucleus.
So almost all people have seen a cell with a nucleus in it.
And virtually all the genes are in the nucleus.
As it says right here in this paper,
which is in a recent issue of Science,
this is one of the most prestigious journals
in the world today.
It says here in the first sentence on this article,
which was dealing with the whole issue dedicated
to the role of the nucleus.
First sentence, “The nucleus is the command center
“of the cell.”
This is conventional belief, that the nucleus is the
command center because in the nucleus are the genes
and the genes control you, so the nucleus represents
that source of control for the cell.
Well the command center of the cell would be
tantamount to the brain.
As I used to teach in medical school to the medical
students, the cells, and this is an image of a cell,
just a cartoon image of a cell, the cells make us up.
We have approximately 50 to 75 trillion cells
that make our body.
Interesting point I used to teach them is this,
there is no new function in your entire human body
that’s not already present in every cell.
Every cell has a respiratory system, a digestive system,
an execratory system, an endocrine system,
and integumentary system, a nervous system,
a reproductive system, an immune system.
Basically what I’m trying to tell you is this,
that the cell and the human are structural function
counter parts of each other.
Whatever’s in the cell is in the human,
whatever’s in the human is in the cell.
So when I talk about the brain of the cell,
the brain of the human as that element that controls,
the command center of the human body,
when I come over here and just read what we just read
off the science journal that said the nucleus is the
command center of the cell, this is because all the
DNA is in here, then we get the assumption that the
nucleus is in the brain of the cell.
Which is what you anticipate if it’s the command center.
Well, that’s an interesting concept for this reason,
I’ll ask you a simple question.
And the question is this: if I take the brain out of any
living organism what is the immediate and necessary
consequence of that action?
Death, absolutely, it’s going to die.
So what happens if I go to the cell and take the
nucleus out of the cell?
Well if the nucleus is the brain of the cell,
by definition, the cell is going to die.
Here’s the reality.
I remove the brain from an organism and the organism dies,
but if I got the nucleus and remove the nucleus from
the cell, the cell is totally unaffected by it.
A cell can live for two or more months with no genes
in it at all.
And it’s not just sitting there, it’s doing everything
it was doing before we took the nucleus out.
It’s moving around, it’s communicating with other cells,
it’s eating, it’s growing, it’s able to eliminate waste
and build up it’s structure, it recognizes toxins
and moves away from them, recognizes food,
moves toward that.
Basically, what am I telling you?
I take all the genes out of the cell and I alter
the behavior in no way.
Meaning this, my definition the nucleus cannot be
the controlling center of the cell because the cell
still has control with no nucleus.
Wait, I took all the genes out and the cell still
has behavior.
The bottom line is that the genes do not control biology.
This is a mistake, this is an assumption.
It was made years and years ago, it was never proven
scientifically, but it just seemed so correct
that we bought the story.
And, in fact, the cosmic joke just hit us not very
long ago with the outcome of the human genome project.
Why was it a joke? And I’ll tell you this:
If the mechanism worked according to the way it’s
written in the textbooks, that the genes control biology,
then there’s a requirement that there has to be at least
120,000 genes to make a human.
When the human genome projects results were turned in,
it turned out that there were only less than 35,000 genes.
Over 90,000 genes are not present.
Which means this, it’s not that the genes are absent,
our belief system was wrong.
The genes do not control biology like we thought.
So the human genome project really pulls the rug out
because they thought they were going to get the
blueprint of out to make a human with all of these genes,
and it turns out there are not that many genes.
Two thirds of the genes are missing!
Meaning we have to now understand a new way of
looking at biology.
Interestingly enough, though, the new understanding
actually started to come out in the last 10 years.
So everything I’m going to talk to you about tonight
is science within the last 10 years.
And the interesting part about it is this,
it takes at least 10 to 15 years for science to take
a fact from it’s first inception to get it out into
the public so that the people can understand it.
So anything in a textbook, for example,
is at least 10 or 15 years old.
So what you’re going to hear tonight is the
future textbook.
You’re going to know the science that is just being
released in the last 10 years.
– I have the pleasure of course talking to audiences
everywhere and telling them about this new biology,
this great biology which ultimately says,
“No, you’re not controlled by your genes,
“you’re controlled by your mind,” and ultimately
you’re programmed and your subconscious mind really
controls you and has been programmed by others.
And I say, “Wow, isn’t that great to understand
“all this stuff?”
And the audience thought it was all really great
up until the very end and then I get to the very end,
I say, “Yep, and you’re controlled by the programs
“in the subconscious mind.”
– And people say, “Great, doctor, beliefs run out life
“and we need to change those, excuse me but how do
“we change those?”
And he would say, “I’m out of time now, I’ve got to go,
“it’s not my field.”
– I don’t know, I’m just a biology guy,
I know how it works, I don’t know how to change it.
– This one time I was sitting in the audience listening
to his presentation because I was next up.
And he finishes, same thing happened.
“Dr. Lipton, how do you change those beliefs?”
“Well I’ve got to go.”
So he’s headed out the door, boy, as fast as he can go.
– Gosh, you know, I wish I had a great answer for that
and as I was thinking, I hear behind me the next speaker
and he says, “Well I’m going to show you how to make
“those changes that Bruce was talking about.”
And I thought, “I’ve got to watch this.”
– You can almost hear the skid marks.
You can hear the sound of his shoes going–
(screeches)
– All these years I’m talking about this,
this guy’s going to show me how to make those changes?
He asked for some people in the audience,
“Anybody want to make changes in their life?”
Of course almost everybody in the audience raises
their hand.
And I saw this one woman raise her hand, put it up,
and the pull it down.
Put it up and pull it down.
– If you know anybody that’s afraid of public speaking,
it’s a terrifying sort of thing to them.
It’s not just a little thing, it’s rated next to death,
I think.
“If I have to get up and speak in public it’ll be
“the worst thing that ever happened to me.”
– So everybody looked at this woman and she turned
beet red.
Couldn’t say her name, couldn’t even say her name.
He had to go out into the audience and sit down
in the chair next to her and have a private conversation
to find out her name.
– So this woman volunteers to come up because I just
simply said, “Look, if there’s somebody that has something
“going on in their lives that limits them in some
“serious way and they would like to change that,
“I’m happy to facilitate it here and now.”
– Meanwhile, I have to tell you the truth,
I’m sitting there thinking, “This guy is pretty ballsy.”
The concept that he’s going to call somebody up
in front of the room and change their life is like,
that, well–
(chuckles)
You’ve got to have a lot of confidence to say that
or it’s going to be a bad show.
– Anyway, she was willing to come up.
So I spent about 10 minutes facilitating a PSYCH-K
process with her.
– And he took his arm off her shoulder and all of
a sudden she was giving a lecture.
She was walking up and down the stage talking about
stories of her childhood and all this kind of stuff.
And everybody in the audience, including me,
were just like–
– She just was on a rant.
She was, she felt so completely different and comfortable.
Eventually she’s walking up and down the stage
telling these people where she’s from and what she’s doing
and what her plans are, all these things about her life
and I finally had to say, “Look, my time’s not up here
“and I’ve got to finish up.
“You can’t be talking anymore, can you go sit down please?”
(laughs)
– And I thought about that and I saw that and it was just
what the whole amazing thing was, here’s a person’s life
that changed in 10 minutes.
And it was the most profound thing I ever saw.
– And it was really funny because Bruce talked to her,
because skeptical scientist that he is and should be,
he talked to her and said, “So what happened?
“What was the deal about that? How do you feel?”
She goes, “I don’t know what happened,
“but I feel completely different.
“I’m comfortable with everybody in the room and I could
“get up and talk some more.”
So he said, “Maybe that’s just a fluke,
“probably just a trick.”
So next year she comes back to the conference,
we’re both there, and he immediately goes up to her
and says, “So what happened with the deal?
“Are you still afraid?”
She goes, “No, I went home, I live in Florida
“and I started a toast masters group and I’m
“winning awards.”
– And I then started to talk with Rob and see about
stuff and said maybe we should work together.
We took a few years, but we finally did it.
– So that was the beginning of this really wonderful
relationship.
A friendship and also a professional link, as well.
– And it was, been the most rewarding of my presentations
because I’m with a group of people that come in
with one way of life, I give them the scientific
foundation to give justification for this what looks
like magic, but it’s not magic when the understand
the science.
And then Rob goes through the training program and
after the four days that we’re together,
these people walk out, they’re different people.
And it’s like, God that is some of the most rewarding
experiences in life to see people empower themselves
to go back in the world and recover the control over
their lives and create lives that are abundantly happy
and fun and beautiful.
– Let me give you an overview of the process that I use,
and this is basically the components of it,
think of it that way, to get the job done in terms of
speeding up change and literally it can happen in
just a few minutes.
Establishing communication with the subconscious is
step one.
I was never taught that in graduate school.
In fact, I don’t think they mentioned the subconscious
except talking about Freud.
And Freud, I mean, if you listen to Freud,
the subconscious is a place nobody wants to go.
I mean, talk about a deep dark abyss of repressed
sexual desire.
You know the term Freudian slip?
You know what that is?
That’s when you say one thing, but you mean your mother.
That would be a Freudian slip.
So nobody wants to go there because they’ve made it
a horrible place to go, but the fact is it’s no more
horrible than your hard drive.
You go to your hard drive all the time if you open
your computer and you get documents out of there and stuff,
that’s energy.
So we’re going to be communicating with the
hard drive here.
You’re going to pre-test the desired belief statement.
That’s a very important thing to find out if your
subconscious believes it or not.
Like, Juliana was very kind to come up here and
give her attention to this process and I had her
say something that was pretty non-threatening like,
“My name is Juliana.”
But what if I had said something like,
had her say something like, “I love myself unconditionally.”
Or, “I trust that I am a wonderful person.”
Or anything that she would desire to be and to know
about herself, then all of the sudden the rubber
meets the road.
Now you’re finding out, from your subconscious mind,
do you agree with that statement or do you not?
You may have done tons of therapy and been saying
affirmations and meditated for 25 years and I tell you,
surprise surprise, you’ll say something you think is
true and you do believe it consciously,
but your subconscious mind never got the message.
And that’s the part that really needs to get it
in order to have behavioral change last.
That’s why so much change tends to be temporary
and made out of lots of will power.
Alright so we’ve got pre-test the statement,
get permission and commitment to change
the belief using a PSYCH-K balance.
Balanced processes that I use, I call them balanced
because essentially what they do is they create
a balanced identification or perception of the left
and right hemisphere of the brain at the same time
for the new belief.
And by doing that using this whole brain integration
process stuff, you can reduce the resistance to internalize
a new belief very quickly,
without all that effort and struggle.
And the permission and commitment thing is
really important.
I noticed in conferences I’ve attended for energy
psychology, as an example, many of the processes make
huge assumptions that if you have something that looks
like it needs to be fixed, it actually represents
something that’s broken.
I don’t know about you, but a lot of times whatever you
call broken is a messenger.
That message is there to, that pain or difficulty
or whatever you call dysfunction is there to teach
you something and you killed a messenger.
So I found that it’s much wiser to find out from the
subconscious is it even a good idea to do what
you’re talking about consciously before you do it.
It saves you a lot of grief later on and you don’t
have to get the proverbial two by four returning
to get your attention because you managed to get
a symptom to go away.
This isn’t about treating symptoms,
it’s about the cause of the symptoms.
And then we’ll do a balance which is the process for
change using whole brain integration of some kind
or another, different varieties of that.
We’ll post-test the belief statement because it gives
you a physical muscle response that’s going to be
different than in the beginning.
So you have an objective way to measure a
subjective change.
You don’t just say, “Well how do you feel?”
“Fine.” “You look good.”
“Alright, see you next week.”
It’s not that.
You know before you leave the interaction whether
that belief resides in your subconscious or not.
So there’s a way to know it for sure.
And then celebrate the change,
and that’s my favorite part so we’ll be doing that.
I want you to take a look at some of these messages.
What I did was I distilled some of the key messages
that over the years of doing psychotherapy I found
that many people internalize from their childhood.
You’ll never amount to anything.
You’re worthless.
You’re not smart enough.
No matter how hard you try it’s never good enough.
Money is hard to come by and hard to keep.
You don’t deserve to succeed.
No one will ever love you.
And Bruce’s favorite, you’re going to get cancer because
it’s genetic.
(laughter)
This one at the bottom, of course, you can make generic
which is, “You’re going to get whatever disease you’re
“predisposed to because it’s going to get passed along
“in your family.”
I’m just putting it out there to let you know that it
doesn’t matter what disease you put in this category
of cancer, it’s the same notion that I’m helpless
and the situation is helpless, I am just going to get
what I’m getting passed along.
So these may be some of the messages that you got.
And the question is, what if you could change them?
What if you could have anything on this list.
What if anything on this list could be true for you?
What I’m going to ask next is I’m going to ask somebody
else to come back up to the stage and I’m going to
facilitate a process, first of all,
to discover whether the belief that seems desirable
to you is currently true in your subconscious,
and if it isn’t, then I’m going to facilitate a process
to make it so.
It’ll take just a few minute to do that.
And so what I’d like you to do is just read down
this list and if one of these beliefs calls to you and
just says, “Boy, I want that.
“It may not be true right now, I’m not sure,
“but I’d be willing to come up here to make sure.”
Would you like?
You have one? Okay.
Come on up.
– I deserve happiness and success in my life.
– I deserve happiness and success, and your name is?
– Karen.
– Okay Karen I’m going to have you come over here please,
like about so.
And I’m going to have you put your arm out,
we’re going to do a little muscle testing together.
Can I have you turn this way just a bit?
Thank you.
With your chin parallel to the ground and your eyes
focused down and open I’m going to press down on
your arm, I want you to be strong if you can.
You ready?
Be strong.
Okay.
So we’re going to do what we did initially to
establish communication because I can’t yet,
I haven’t gotten a weak signal so I don’t know what
that’s like in Karen’s system.
So I want you to say out loud, “My name is Karen.”
– My name is Karen.
– Be strong, Karen.
Say, “My name is Frank,” be a guy named Frank.
– My name is Frank.
– Be strong, Frank.
Okay can you feel a difference in that.
Okay, I’m not pressing hard, I don’t want to press hard,
I’m not trying to make this dramatic,
I’m just trying to press hard enough that she can tell
when the muscle locks in place and when it unlocks.
So we’re getting a very clear signal here.
Just for fun I want you to do in your mind,
silently, repeat the word yes.
Hear that over and over in your head.
And be strong as I press.
And repeat the word no over and over.
And again be strong as a press.
Feel the difference?
– Yeah.
– Big difference, okay.
So what we’re going to do is we’re going to make this
a little juicier now.
We’re going to have Karen actually say her desired
statement out loud, we’re going to test it against what
the subconscious mind currently has residing in there
as a set of beliefs and see if she has any beliefs
that support that.
She may actually not believe is consciously,
it’s possible should could already believe it subconsciously
and we don’t know that until we test.
So if you’ll put your arm again.
I’m going to have you say your statement out loud,
which is, “I deserve happiness and success in my life.”
Look down and say it like you mean it.
– Okay, I deserve happiness and success in my life.
– Now be real strong.
Nice try.
“Please God, make it work.”
That’s about wanting it with all your heart and soul,
but not having a program to support it.
And that’s what I mean, you say,
“Oh geeze, I’ve tried and I want that and I’m really
“desirous and I’m all lined up,” and your subconscious
says, “Sorry. No software for that plan.”
Alright so what I’m going to do now is I’m going to
demonstrate a change process, and this is different
than teaching it.
So please forgive me in terms of not being able
to have the time to explain each little detail.
That’s why it’s a two day workshop, I can’t make that
into this hour or so that we have together.
But I’m going to facilitate this with her by
going through the generic protocol I showed you
and we’ll see what happens.
So if you’ll put your arm out for a minute, please.
First of all we’re going to get permission and
commitment.
We’ve already tested this statement,
we know that you’re weak to the statement.
The goal is to get her to be strong to the statement.
Right now she tests weak, although she’s really wanting
to be strong.
And I can understand that.
Alright so I’m going to ask you a couple questions,
you don’t have to repeat any of this out loud,
just listen.
And then I’m going to muscle test for yes and no
responses and so on.
It’s safe and appropriate for Karen to balance for
this goal now.
So be strong Karen.
Good, we get a nice strong response indicating yes.
All parts of the system are ready, willing,
and able to balance for this goal using a new
direction balance.
So be strong if you can.
Good.
Alright, her subconscious mind agreed to one of the
several PSYCH-K patterns.
You might be asking yourself,
“How could she know what that is?”
Well I’m not asking her conscious mind,
turns out i’m asking her subconscious mind.
And the real magic of this is lots of information is
shared subconsciously that you’re not aware of at all.
Every time you walk into a room, especially if you’re
as close as I am to her right now,
much much information at the four billion bit processing
levels being exchanged between us.
So if I know what a new direction balance is,
turns out I do, I muscle test her and her subconscious
mind can actually give me a response to that because
it can access my hard drive.
Very interesting about this stuff because I did it
in foreign languages just to prove this to myself.
What a trip.
I think I muscle tested in Mandarin Chinese and my
subconscious mind knew what this person was saying.
All the muscle responses were correct for the questions
that she was asking.
So just really interesting, in a hurry.
Alright, so here we go.
We’ve gotten as far as doing the actual change process,
I’m going to require a chair for this,
if you’ll hold on right here I’m going to grab one.
What we’re going to do next is we’re going to utilize
some of this left/right brain integration technology
I spoke about.
We’re going to setup a system so that Karen’s mind
can maximize her perception.
Left and right brain at the same time while she
internalizes this new belief.
This is different than just saying affirmations
and I’ll explain a little bit about that while she’s
going through the process.
To determine the best way for her to achieve this
left/right brain integration we’re going to use her
physical body because it’s an electrical system.
If she crosses her ankle, one over the other,
her electrical field actually changes.
I don’t know if you know that, but when you cross your
ankles or your legs, you’re really changing the field
in your entire body.
Same with your wrists.
Any place you can cross the midline of your body
make a different electrical circuit,
just like a circuit board.
So watch what happens.
If you put your arm out like so, please.
And cross one ankle over the other,
it doesn’t matter which one, looking down again with
your eyes, I’m going to press down and see if you
can be strong.
Okay switch ankles the opposite way,
let’s see if it makes any difference when I test.
And be strong now.
See the difference?
Go back this other way.
Apparently there is a clear preference here.
Be strong.
She’s real strong when she crosses her right ankle
over left.
Remember, this is all in relationship to this goal.
This is not a general thing.
Now we’re into a belief change piece,
that’s the target, and her subconscious mind is
telling is, “This is the way I need to be configured
“optimally to get this belief to be true.”
So while your ankles are in position cause the
strength I want you to do the following with your wrist,
put one on top of the other straight out in front of you,
like so.
I’m going to press down on both of them and I want you
to be strong I you can.
Strong now.
Switch them the other way, let’s see if it makes
any difference.
Strong now.
You tell me which one feels stronger,
go back to the other way.
Strong now.
Okay and back the other way, be strong.
Yeah this way does, doesn’t it?
Like so.
Getting a clearer signal, I just had to test a couple
times ’cause the difference is fairly subtle.
So what you do with your hands now is go ahead and
interlace them like this.
You can rest them in your lap.
Here’s what I want you to do.
And then I’m going to have a little chat with the group
while you’re doing it.
I’m going to have you close your eyes in a little while
and I’m going to have you be able to silently just
repeat the statement, I’ll give it to you and then
you’re just going to repeat it gently over and over
in your mind.
And what I want you to do is I want you to actually
invite any resistance to the idea,
any other ideas like your statement is,
“I deserve happiness and success in my life.”
If you’ve got any other voices in there that say,
“No, you don’t, you never did, you never will,”
all that stuff, rather than try to push them away
or make them go away I actually want you to invite
them in.
Say, “Okay, okay, come on, come on.”
Because it’s an educational process.
You’re going to be saying this statement to this
resistance until the resistance just disappears.
So until you feel either a mental, emotional,
or physical change keep your eyes closed and keep
saying the statement to yourself.
When you feel that shift I want you to open your eyes
and we’ll do the next part of the process.
Deal?
And I’ll amuse everybody out here while you do this.
So I want you to close your eyes,
silently begin to say the statement,
“I deserve happiness and success in my life.”
And while Karen is doing that I wanted to make a couple
of comments about what’s going on.
We’ve configured her body, not according to my guess
or my judgment about what she needs,
but her subconscious mind which knows how that belief
is blocked, it knows exactly what software needs to be
rewritten to make it so, and it’s in the process of
doing so right now.
It’s different then meditation because most meditation
is single focused and all other ideas must go away.
Notice the instruction I gave her wasn’t to do that,
it was to say the statement and invite these other
ideas in.
It’s not prayer because you’re not really asking for
(mumbles) in some way, “Please help me.”
It’s not that kind of thing, you’re just affirming
this belief over and over.
It’s not visualization, it’s not positive thinking,
it’s simply affirming a statement to be true,
educating the parts that are in resistance,
and doing it through the filters of whole brain
integration.
While in this posture, she can’t think of the downside
of this the way she used to.
Left and right brain now are working simultaneously
and they’re perceiving this goal in a brand new way
that she hasn’t been able to every time she’s thought
about it in a normal sitting posture or just in her
normal life.
So it’s really interrupting the cycle of over identifying
with the left or the right hemisphere of the brain,
which kept her stuck.
As soon as this comes into her whole brain integrated
perception, the belief’s hers.
And we’ll test it out.
Okay so you keep at it until you can feel something
change and then you just let me know and I’ll keep
talking to all these people about this.
So usually this process, I’d say on average takes about
two to five minutes for most beliefs to change.
Small price to pay for something you’ve had all your
life that’s been arresting your life and keeping it
from being in that ecstasy, the picture that we saw
and really promoting a lot more of the protection
to stream energy to your life.
So it can shift, it does shift and it’s not about me
doing something, it’s about her.
In fact, all of PSYCH-K is really about,
very little about the facilitator and a whole bunch
about the innate wisdom and divinity within each of us.
It’s activating that and moving that into a specific
area of intention and giving the tools to the
subconscious mind to do the job that it’s capable
of doing with the proper instruction for doing it.
Sometimes when the change is taking place,
this is another interesting aspect of this process
is that it’s not particularly visual,
you don’t have to visualize anything.
If you’re not a good visualizer, you don’t have to make
a picture in your head to make things come true.
If you tend to be more auditory, you make sounds in your
head, you talk to yourself in your head,
you’ll go there.
However the belief is wired in that needs to be changed,
that’s what she’s going to get internally.
So sometimes you’ll get pictures, sometimes you’ll get
sounds, sometimes it’s just your body, you’re feeling.
You’ll feel the body change, you’ll feel the muscles
tense and then release.
Happens differently for each person and different
with each belief.
Okay she seems to think somethings going on here,
so we’ll check this out.
So unhook your ankles and your wrists,
unhook these guys, put your fingertips together like so.
Just hold them there.
This is equivalent to the save command.
If you think about what she was just doing in a
computer metaphor, she was editing the documents that
kept her from believing she deserves this life
that’s going to work, then we’re saving this to the
hard drive, we’re making it a permanent document
in her subconscious mind so that it won’t just go away.
It’s the same thing as you always save your work before
you turn your computer off.
So it’s there when you get it next time.
Same idea.
So you can let go of that.
Put your arm out to your side,
I’m just going to test to see where we are with the
process right now.
This is a sort of intermediate deal.
So just listen.
This process is complete so be strong if you can.
Good, we get a nice strong response.
You can stand back up please.
I’m going to move the chair here.
We’re at a place where her subconscious just reported
to me, “I’ve had enough of that, I’ve got it,
“thank you.”
So we’re going to verify and see if that’s really true.
So I’m going to press a lot harder than I’ve been
pressing just to make sure, if this is true,
that there’s no doubt it is.
I want you to say out loud, “I deserve happiness and
“success in my life.”
Looking down, say it like you mean it.
– I deserve happiness and success in my life.
– And be strong.
And if i let go just brings like a spring board.
Nice going.
– Thank you.
– Good for you.
So hang here for just a minute.
(applause)
So I’m just wondering if Karen, would you mind saying
a little bit about what was going on when you were
sitting down there.
– I started saying all the things, you know,
“No you don’t, everybody’s going to be jealous of you,
“you have to feel guilty.”
And then all of a sudden it was like,
“Wait a minute, God wants everybody to be happy and
“successful in their life.”
And if God wants everybody to happy and successful
in their life, God wants you to be happy and successful
in your life.
– Bingo.
– And when I went through that process, it just,
you know, it was very logically based.
If this, then that.
– So did you tend to hear, was that a conversation
going on in your head more than anything else?
– But then as soon as I realized that I felt like,
just kind of like a lifting, like a happiness type of thing.
– “I think that I deserve happiness.”
Might have something to do with the feeling getting
to come in for a change.
She went from the scream to the ecstasy pretty
quickly right there.
Thank you very much, enjoy the change.
Okay.
Thank you for volunteering.
Okay so, what’d that take?
Maybe five minutes while I was trying to keep you
distracted so she had some–
Consider the circumstances,
this is the worst possible place.
On the stage with people in an audience doing belief
change work and it works anyway.
Imagine if you had the privacy of your own home
and one other person to work with and you didn’t have
an audience the whole time, how simple things are.
It’s just been remarkable, my experience in the
change work.
When this work came in, and I say came in because
I didn’t sit down and analytically develop PSYCH-K,
it really was one of those born out of a moment
of terrible frustration with graduate school training
and other things that I’d tried, all of a sudden entire
patterns of change were just downloaded in my computer.
I went into my house, literally, and typed the information
into a computer and said, “Okay, that’s interesting,
“I wonder what that’s about.”
And then I just read off the sheets and learned the work
that way.
It was very interesting, and this was 14 years ago.
So I was very skeptical, didn’t believe in muscle
testing because I had never experienced it,
didn’t believe in these patterns until I could
experience them myself.
And when I saw the really miraculous changes that were
taking place in short period of time,
physically, emotionally, spiritually for people,
I finally just said okay.
Thank you and I’ll do it.
So you find a path and you stay with it ’cause it works.
And it’s my joy to get to share this information
with you.
It’s like Bruce and I bond because he’s bumping the
envelope of biology, I’m doing the same with psychology,
we’ve been looking in the wrong place for the changes
for a lot of years and it’s time to wake up and do it
completely differently.
(upbeat music)
People are busy getting all these diseases and all
these sicknesses these days and I say, largely,
we’re so out of whack, out of resonant vibration,
out of harmony with nature that we’re living an
artificial life in a natural environment.
And to the extent that we can come back into harmony
with the natural environment, our bodies will come back
into harmony with health.
Even in the health and wellness program in PSYCH-K
which addresses mostly physiological type problems,
and triggers the doctor within, the sort of mind part
of us that can trigger the self healing response,
healing comes from inside us this way.
And as Bruce Lipton would say, our health is a function
of epi-genetic signals, signals above our genes that
are given to our cells to operate in a certain way
and trigger biochemical responses that are immune
enhancing instead of immune suppressing.
And that’s what the health and wellness program
is all about.
So to use your mind as a part of a medical intervention,
I’m not saying don’t go to a doctor,
go to a doctor when it’s appropriate to go to a doctor,
of course you do, but I’m saying that in the main stream
medical community, very seldom does the medical
community see the mind as another physician that they
can call on to help in the healing process.
And I’m saying it’s so forgotten in our culture
and so critical to ancient cultures.
That’s why I studied the ancient cultures so much
is to find out what they know that we’ve forgotten
about the nature of things.
They treat whole people, they don’t treat just symptoms.
And we’re so symptom oriented because we’re so left
brain oriented because we’re so reductionistically
oriented and separate from each other in everything
that we’ve forgotten who we are.
We are interconnected, we are interconnected to the
environment, the environment we live in.
Whether you live in a city or in a forest,
we’re all part of that environment.
And what you think and what you believe has a profound
effect on your health, on your well-being,
on your happiness, and on other people around you.
– Thank you guys so much for watching,
I hope you enjoyed.
I’d love to know, what did you think?
Do you buy into it?
Are you going to test it out?
Are you going to try?
Have you already done something around it?
Have you seen results or not?
I’d love to know what you think.
The first thing I did after I watched these videos
when we were doing the research is I got Alex
and I tested the arm thing.
And it seemed to work on him so it was a good early,
early test.
So I’d love to know, what did you guys think?
Do you think this is a bunch of BS or do you think
this is actually applicable, helpful,
have you tried it?
I’d love to know your thoughts, share it down in the
comments below.
Also, if there’s somebody else that you think we should
profile or look into or research around the Never Sick
theme, somebody who can help you stay always healthy
that you’ve learned from, I’d love for you to share
that person in the comments, as well.
Maybe we’ll do a video on them and their thoughts
in the future.
Thank you guys so much for watching, I believe in you,
I hope you continue to believe in yourself and
whatever your one word is, much love, I’ll see you soon.
