New Edition Includes an introduction and new song.
These guided meditations are a part of Dr. Joe's four-week program discussed in his book, Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself. The meditations are designed to move you from the analytical Beta brain-wave state to the state of Alpha, and develop your ability to sustain coherent brain-wave patterns. By placing your awareness on different parts of your body in space and on the space around your body, as instructed by Dr. Dispenza, you are altering your brain so that you enter into the operating system of your subconscious mind where unwanted habits and programs exist. The first objective is to learn to stay present and make meditation a skill. It is then from this new present state that you will change something emotionally or physically about yourself or create new experiences in your life and therefore create the life you desire!
Mental Rehearsal: Building a New Neural Network. Although I have mapped out a suggested four-week program for you to learn the entire process, please take as much time as you need to practice each step until it becomes familiar. The best pace to set is one that is comfortable, so you never feel overwhelmed. Please take your time and build a strong foundation. When you can concentrate on what you're doing without letting your thoughts wander to any extraneous stimuli, you will come to a point when your body actually aligns with your mind. Now your new skill will become easier and easier to do. The ingredients of learning, attention, instruction, and practice will develop an associated neural network to reflect your intentions.
For further information regarding the purpose and benefits of these meditations, please refer to Chapter 9 13 in Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself: How to Lose Your Mind and Create a New One.
Meditation Directions: There are two meditations that you can choose from each day. You only need to do one per day. Dr. Joe has provided two different inductions so that you can vary your meditation routine. Each meditation is split into four sections so that you can become familiar with each step and then build on skill level from your previous week.
Please Note: You may want to first fast forward to the times listed below to familiarize yourself with what the bells sound like before listening to the meditation for the first time.

Ah, to fall in love with a stranger who is a redhead! It is a feeling like no other, a wildfire of emotion and desire that consumes the soul.
As I lay eyes on this fiery-haired beauty, I am struck by a sense of awe and wonder. Her locks, like flames, dance and shimmer in the light, drawing me in with their hypnotic glow. I am powerless to resist their siren call, and I find myself drawn closer, unable to look away.
As I approach, I am overwhelmed by the scent of her, a heady mixture of lavender and spice that tantalizes my senses and leaves me dizzy with desire. Her skin, like porcelain, is smooth and flawless, and I ache to touch it, to feel the warmth of her body against mine.
And then, as our eyes meet, I am lost. I am captured by her gaze, which burns with an intensity and passion that I have never before encountered. I am powerless to resist her charms, and I find myself falling head over heels, lost in the throes of love.
Yes, to fall in love with a stranger who is a redhead is to experience a depth of emotion and desire that is unparalleled. It is a journey of the heart and soul, one that is filled with wonder and delight, and one that I would not trade for anything in the world. So, I would say falling in love with a stranger who is a redhead is a wonderful and intense experience that can bring great joy and fulfillment to your life.

Anger, angry outbursts, overreactions to other's perceived intentions, ADHD & trauma, are they related? Yes, according to Gabor Maté. I have found his work profound and moving. Three short interviews and a deep dive follow that explore his unique take on the origins and nature of ADHD and trauma.
