What’s in it for me? Learn how to connect with the energy beyond your usual sensing abilities.

What do you picture when you think of a supernatural being? A creature of love and light? A greater power? A mythical deity or alien with superpowers?

What about your neighbor? Your boss? Your bus driver?

What about you?

Joe Dispenza has decades of research and experience under his belt that all point to the same conclusion: normal human beings are fully equipped to go beyond our everyday senses and access the unseen energies of the universe. If being supernatural is defined as being able to affect the world beyond our physical abilities, well, we are literally built to become supernatural. All it takes is understanding, intention, and practice.

In this Blink, you’ll learn how the world is so much more than we can sense with just our regular five senses. You’ll discover how the mind and body work together, how your mind can directly affect your body and the world around you, and a specific technique for supernaturally changing your life and achieving your dreams.

Matter and Energy

Remember learning about Einstein in physics class? E = mc². For those of us who need a refresher, that equation describes how mass becomes energy and vice versa. Essentially, any tangible mass that travels faster than the speed of light becomes pure energy – it can’t hold its material form. The equation also shows how everything that contains mass is a certain amount of energy, just in stationary form.

Most of your life involves being matter, being a tangible being. But you also give off energy, and because of that, you can affect both your body and the world around you by merely focusing your consciousness.

The French researcher René Peoc’h first demonstrated this very phenomenon in 1995. He built a robot with random-choice-generator software installed. The robot traveled forward, choosing to turn left or right at random times. Peoc’h built it to turn right 50 percent of the time and to turn left the other half of the time.

Obviously, we can’t show you any graphics in this Blink. Instead, imagine a rectangle on the ground in front of you. When Peoc’h placed his robot in the rectangular space, its path went all over the rectangle. So in that rectangle you’re imagining, you’d see random, jagged lines traced throughout the entire space.

Peoc’h then hatched a group of chicks and imprinted those chicks on the robot. If the chicks had been given free rein, they’d have followed the robot along its randomly chosen paths. But instead, the chicks were placed in an enclosure just to the right of the robot’s rectangular space. The chicks could see the robot but couldn’t move toward it or follow it, despite their instincts to do so.

This is where things get really interesting.

So imagine again a rectangle on the ground with the imprinted chicks in a smaller rectangle to the right of the bigger one. When the robot was again placed in the larger rectangular space, its pathways were all concentrated on the right half of the rectangle – the side closest to the chicks! There were no lines on the left side of the rectangle anymore, only lines on the right side.

This was the same robot and the same program that previously had produced the random pathways that covered the entire rectangular space. The only difference in the experiment was the inclusion of the imprinted chicks. Their intention to be close to the robot they’d imprinted upon was the only difference. The conclusion? The intention and focus the chicks placed on the robot were actually capable of altering its path.

Incredible, right?

What could you do with the right focus and intention? It’s truly the definition of becoming supernatural – affecting the world around and within you using only your focus.

Okay, okay, it’s slightly more complicated than just thinking, of course. We’ll get into more detail on how to actually affect the world around you later. For now, let’s look at how such a thing is even possible. It’s all thanks to energy and the quantum realm.

The Quantum: Realm of Infinite Possibilities

The quantum realm isn’t just a relic of sci-fi stories. It’s an actual realm containing infinite possibilities. This is the real-life multiverse, the place where everything is happening at once, every possibility is in existence, and time is no longer linear. It’s a realm of energy, beyond our day-to-day experience of life, but fully encompassing both every moment of our lives and every other possible life we could be leading.

It sounds a little too wondrous to be true. But don’t worry, it can be difficult to wrap your mind around, even for those who’ve had multiple experiences accessing the quantum.

The Connection between Mind and Body

Are you familiar with the idea of a mind-body connection? If you don’t think you’ve heard of such a thing before, consider the placebo effect, a well-known concept. It’s when someone’s given a nonactive pill – a placebo – but they feel better anyway. This is the mind-body connection at work. Our minds are so powerful that we can actually affect our physical bodies with just our thoughts.

How does this biophysically work?

Harnessing the Mind-Body Connection

So, you’ve seen that you can get stuck in a negative, harmful loop of thoughts and emotions. But you can also enter a positive, helpful loop. You can actively seek out and cultivate healing emotions within yourself like love, gratitude, acceptance, and joy. In doing so, you retrain your body from being stuck in past fears to instead generate energy within yourself and heal your body from the inside.

Your mind is capable of directly affecting both your body and other energy in the world. Remember the power of the chicks’ intentions? They altered a random-choice-generating robot’s path, just with their desire to be close to the robot. By focusing your intentions and opening yourself up to the quantum, you can directly interact with the energies that flow throughout the entire world.
