Dr. Joe Dispenza talks about the power of the placebo effect in his book You are the Placebo. The placebo effect works in so many fascinating ways and today I want to talk about how Mantras work to encourage the placebo effect. So basically, a placebo is when we don’t know we are not taking the drug and heal in spite of this. I feel like this makes it crazy to state that it’s “Just” a placebo when in fact that is more like a miracle!
A mantra is something we say over and over again so that our subconscious mind believes it and makes it happen. I was recovering from a pretty weird and long illness and decided to use this as one of my healing modalities. Every day I would say “Everyday in everyway, I am getting better and better”. I would sometimes throw in there, ” I am healthier than I’ve ever been”. I would choose different things to add depending on what I really felt like in the moment. Within a shorter time than I would have imagined I was truly getting better in everyway, everyday!
Whatever you want to change in your life, try a mantra and stick to saying it everyday, several times a day. See what happens for you! If you want wealth then put that in there, “I’m healthy, wealthy and having fun!”. Give yourself the placebo effect for what you really want by also not speaking of your problems. In this day and age we can go on any social media site and find loads of people doing the complaining thing. It really does matter what you focus on so you don’t get more of what you DON’T want. Set a time and do your mantras, think before you type out the woe is me post and forget the thoughts of “I’m lying to myself” because, you’re not. You’re talking about your future self and that future could be as soon as tomorrow!
