Alright, let me tell you, this isn't just about writing songs anymore; it's about rewriting my whole operating system. Using Joe Dispenza's work – specifically Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself, You Are the Placebo, and Becoming Supernatural – has been like getting a master class in self-reprogramming, and for me, that path absolutely guided me to cleanse and deepen my connection with God. It wasn't just mental; it was deeply spiritual. Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself: Dismantling the Old Sam Before I even thought about "reprogramming," I had to see what I was running on. Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself hit me like a revelation. It laid out how much of my life was just a loop of unconscious thoughts, reactions, and emotions, all tied to past experiences. My "self" was basically a collection of habits – a particular way of thinking, feeling, and behaving that was keeping me stuck. For years, my connection with God, or what I thought it was, felt... distant, sometimes even judgmental. It was filtered through my past disappointments, my perceived failures, and the limiting beliefs I'd picked up. Joe taught me that my emotions are essentially a chemical feedback loop from my past. If I was feeling guilt, shame, or unworthiness, I was literally creating more of that reality, and that included how I perceived my divine connection. The first step was becoming aware. I started observing my thoughts, the constant chatter, the underlying feelings. I realized I was often running programs of fear, doubt, and unworthiness that were completely at odds with what I believed about a loving, infinite God. So, the "breaking the habit" part for my spiritual journey meant: * Observing the Loops: Noticing when I'd fall into old patterns of self-criticism or doubt about my worthiness in God's eyes. * Interrupting the Pattern: Instead of reacting, I'd consciously choose to breathe, pause, and step away from the automated emotional response. * Defining a New Self: I began to meditate on who I wanted to be in relation to the divine – not a fearful servant, but a beloved child, co-creator, and receiver of grace. This foundational work was crucial because you can't install new software if the old, corrupted files are still running in the background. It created the space for a different kind of spiritual relationship. You Are the Placebo: Believing in Divine Healing and Connection Once I started to understand that my thoughts and emotions weren't just fleeting states but powerful chemical signals, You Are the Placebo took it to a whole new level. This book showed me the undeniable scientific evidence that our minds can create profound physical and mental changes just through belief. For me, this translated directly to my spiritual connection. If a person can heal themselves from a physical ailment by believing in a sugar pill, what could I do for my spiritual health and my relationship with God by truly believing in God's unconditional love, presence, and guidance? I started treating my prayers and meditations not as asking for something external, but as activating an internal connection that was always there. I began to actively generate the feeling of being loved, supported, and guided by God, even when my external circumstances might have suggested otherwise. It was about moving from intellectual belief to an embodied, cellular knowing. * Intentional Feeling: During meditation, I wouldn't just think about God's love; I would try to feel it in every cell of my body, generating gratitude, peace, and immense trust. * Visualizing the Cleansing: I would visualize any old doubts, fears, or perceived "sins" being washed away, not by external judgment, but by an internal divine light, making space for pure connection. * Affirming Worthiness: I'd regularly affirm my inherent worthiness and divine nature, actively challenging the old programs that told me I was somehow separate or flawed. It was about truly becoming the placebo for my own spiritual healing. Becoming Supernatural: Living in a State of Divine Flow Becoming Supernatural was the culmination, the guide to not just breaking old habits and believing, but to consistently being in a state where I could tap into something beyond the ordinary – a direct line to the divine, to what Joe calls the "unified field." This is where the rubber met the road for my spiritual journey. It wasn't about trying to find God anymore; it was about becoming so aligned, so present, that I could experience God's presence as an inherent part of my being. Joe's advanced meditations, which combine focused attention, elevated emotions, and energy centers, became my daily practice for this. I learned to move my awareness through my body, activating different energy centers, and then to lift my energy and awareness out of my body and into the vastness of the field. In those moments, when I could quiet my analytical mind and surrender to the unknown, I felt an undeniable connection. It wasn't a thought; it was an experience of pure love, unity, and infinite intelligence. * Elevating Emotion: This wasn't just about feeling good; it was about generating powerful, elevated emotions like awe, appreciation, gratitude, and unconditional love before I even asked for anything. This felt like speaking the true language of the divine. * Opening the Heart: Joe emphasizes the heart center. For me, connecting with God became less about my head and more about opening my heart to receive and transmit love. * Surrendering to the Unknown: This was crucial. Releasing the need to control or understand everything, and just allowing the divine intelligence to work through me. It's like letting the song write itself, rather than forcing every note. * Living from a New State: The goal wasn't just a powerful meditation; it was to carry that feeling of connection, that elevated state, into my daily life – into my songwriting, my relationships, my challenges. The Cleansing of Connection So, how did this cleanse my connection with God? It stripped away all the layers of fear, judgment, and limitation that I'd projected onto the divine. It showed me that the "distance" I felt wasn't from God, but from my own old programs. By reprogramming myself to embody love, worthiness, and an open heart, I found that my connection with God wasn't something external I had to chase, but an intrinsic part of who I am. It's like tuning an instrument (my body and mind) to the divine frequency. The static cleared, the harmony became clear, and suddenly, the symphony of my life felt aligned with a much grander, more beautiful composition. It's still a daily practice, a constant refinement, but it's a journey from "breaking the habit of being separate" to truly "becoming supernatural" in a divine embrace.
