Summary

Is it possible to heal by thought alone - without drugs or surgery? The truth is that it happens more often than you might expect. In You Are the Placebo, Dr. Joe Dispenza shares numerous documented cases of those who reversed cancer, heart disease, depression, crippling arthritis, and even the tremors of Parkinson’s disease by believing in a placebo. Similarly, Dr. Joe tells of how others have gotten sick and even died the victims of a hex or voodoo curse - or after being misdiagnosed with a fatal illness. Belief can be so strong that pharmaceutical companies use double- and triple-blind randomized studies to try to exclude the power of the mind over the body when evaluating new drugs.

Dr. Joe does more than simply explore the history and the physiology of the placebo effect. He asks the question: “Is it possible to teach the principles of the placebo, and without relying on any external substance, produce the same internal changes in a person’s health and ultimately in his or her life?” Then he shares scientific evidence (including color brain scans) of amazing healings from his workshops, in which participants learn his model of personal transformation, based on practical applications of the so-called placebo effect. The book ends with a “how-to” meditation for changing beliefs and perceptions that hold us back - the first step in healing.

You Are the Placebo combines the latest research in neuroscience, biology, psychology, hypnosis, behavioral conditioning, and quantum physics to demystify the workings of the placebo effect...and show how the seemingly impossible can become possible.

A life changing read.

This book cannot be read without it altering your perception of reality.. Even more powerful are the meditations,. After a week od doing them I improved my eyesight significantly, so I no longer need glasses to read my phone text.

50 minutes in, and full of self promotion

50 minutes in, and full of self promotion. 50 minutes in, and starting to get really bored of this book, waiting for something useful to be revealed. The entire preface is a rambling self-promotion about the authors other books and courses. The so-called introduction, so far spent 15 minutes just telling me all about what he’s going to tell me, and I’m wondering whether he’s ever going to get to telling me anything of value. I’ll give it another 15 minutes, then I’m done and on to something more practical

Great book with great narration

Another great book by Dr. Joe Dispenza. It's easy to be discouraged at the beginning of the book by the abundance of information that the writer provides, but when you take your time and find a suitable pace, the book will open so many windows in your head that, at one point, you will start to laugh because you know that they were there all the time... but somebody needed to hand you a wet cloth to wipe the dirt off:)

Important message, not keen on the style

I love the anecdotes and general message. But the style grates on me. I would have preferred more of a "here are some fascinating stories and this is my opinion", including the eeg results which are shared. Instead I heard " this method works. I am right and amazing. Buy my other products."
I did experience a mind-altering meditation after listening. I do think it works, just not a fan of the American-ness of it.

Really inspiring book

Although sometimes hard to understand due to biological terms, I really enjoyed this title. it inspired me and changed my beliefs about things. I've purchased the meditation audios and definitely have started a journey to be my own placebo.
