He Spent 10 Years Proving This: How To Prevent Chronic Stress & Slow Aging | Dr. Joe Dispenza

TL;DR

Dr. Joe Dispenza states that 75–90% of healthcare visits in the Western world are caused by emotional or psychological stress, and people become addicted to stress hormones, needing external conditions to maintain that emotional state.

Key insights

• 50% of the story people tell about their past is not the truth; they are reliving a miserable life they never had to excuse themselves from changing.
• The body does not know the difference between a real-life experience and an emotion fabricated by thought alone; therefore, repeatedly feeling past emotions keeps the body living in the past event.
• Analyzing problems while within the emotions of the past drives the brain further out of balance; instead, getting beyond the emotion frees a person from the past.
