How Dr. Joe Dispenza’s Teachings Can Change Your Life
I recently finished Becoming Supernatural by Dr. Joe Dispenza, and let me just say—this book is a game-changer. As someone who blends mindful movement with strength and inner alignment through my Pilates Fusion programs, I found Dr. Joe’s work incredibly affirming and deeply transformative. If you’ve ever felt stuck in your routine, held back by stress, or disconnected from your potential, this book offers not just insight—but practical tools to completely shift your reality.
Here are the most powerful lessons I took away and how they can truly change your life.
1. Your Thoughts Shape Your Reality
One of Dr. Joe’s core teachings is that your brain doesn’t know the difference between a real event and an imagined one. That means what you consistently think about and emotionally connect to has the power to shape your future. If you’re living in a cycle of stress or doubt, you’re unconsciously recreating more of the same. But if you begin thinking as your future self—stronger, calmer, more fulfilled—you begin shifting your internal state. And when your inner world changes, your outer world follows.
2. Energy Is Everything
This book made me rethink how I show up in my workouts, my business, and my relationships. Dr. Joe teaches that in order to create a new reality, we need to change our energy. This means aligning our thoughts (what we focus on) and emotions (how we feel) so we’re no longer operating from survival mode, but from inspiration, joy, and gratitude. When you do that, you stop reacting to life and start creating it.
3. Meditation Isn’t Optional—It’s Essential
Meditation isn’t just about stress relief. It’s how we rewire our brain and recondition our body to a new future. Dr. Joe’s guided meditations are structured to help you step into elevated emotional states, release old patterns, and tune into the version of yourself you’re becoming. This was a wake-up call for me: consistency in meditation = consistency in transformation.
4. Your Heart and Brain Must Work Together
I love how this aligns with my philosophy of movement as medicine. The book dives into heart-brain coherence, a state where your thoughts and emotions are in sync. You can access this through slow, intentional breath and focused meditation. When you're coherent, your nervous system settles, your immune system strengthens, and your body begins to heal. This isn’t woo—it’s physiology.
5. You Are Not Your Past
This one hit hard: most people wake up thinking the same thoughts, feeling the same emotions, and expecting the same outcomes. We live from memory, not possibility. But in order to create something new, you have to act like it’s already happening. That means dressing, moving, and thinking like the version of you who has already changed. If you want different results—whether it’s in your health, your business, or your energy—you have to become someone new.
6. Your Body Can Heal and Transform—From the Inside Out
Dr. Joe shares stories (backed by brain scans and case studies) of people healing chronic illness, anxiety, even trauma—through focused intention, meditation, and elevated emotional states. The power to heal doesn’t just come from the outside (or a fitness plan)—it comes from within. This is the mind-body connection in its most radical form.
7. You Don’t Have to Be a Monk to Be Extraordinary
This is what I loved most: this work isn’t reserved for spiritual gurus or scientists. Common people are doing the uncommon. With practice, discipline, and daily intention, you can reprogram your mind, elevate your body, and completely shift your future. All it takes is a decision to begin.
Final Thoughts: Becoming Supernatural in Your Everyday Life
Reading this book reaffirmed what I teach in my classes every day: real change happens when we align the mind and body. Whether you’re holding a plank, practicing breathwork, or journaling through resistance—you are becoming supernatural. You are rewriting your story.
If you’re ready to move with intention, train your energy as much as your muscles, and shift into the next version of yourself, start small. Meditate. Breathe. Move your body with love. Visualize your future. And watch how your life begins to change.
