A Deep Dive Into Dr. Joe Dispenza’s Becoming Supernatural
Several years ago I was way into Dr. Joe’s meditations and they really helped me stay present and create harmony in my life. I am diving back in now with his book Becoming Supernatural….Here’s what it’s all about:
Dr. Joe Dispenza’s Becoming Supernatural has become a modern classic for anyone interested in the intersection of neuroscience, energy, emotions, and human transformation. Whether you approach it from a scientific lens, a spiritual lens, or a blend of both, the book offers a compelling argument for something many people intuitively feel:
We’re capable of more than we’ve been taught to believe.
In this post, we’ll break down the core ideas of Becoming Supernatural, why it resonates with so many readers, what practices it teaches, and how you can start applying the work in your own life.
What Is Becoming Supernatural About?
At its heart, Becoming Supernatural is about changing your inner state—your thoughts, emotions, beliefs, and energy—in order to change your life in the outer world. Dispenza combines concepts from:
- neuroscience
- epigenetics
- meditation
- quantum theory
- emotional healing
- ancient spiritual practices
He argues that when we change our state of being, we change what we perceive, how we behave, what we attract, and ultimately the quality of our life.
The book teaches rigorous daily practices for creating that shift.
The Core Premise: Your Brain + Your Energy = Your Reality
Dispenza suggests that most people live by “the memories of their past”—meaning:
- familiar emotions
- habitual thoughts
- automatic behaviors
These patterns create a predictable, repetitive life.
He proposes that to create a new life, you must create a new internal chemistry, which starts with:
- thinking differently
- feeling differently
- acting differently
This process, he argues, literally rewires the brain and influences the energy field around the body.
Key Ideas from Becoming Supernatural
1. The Past Lives in the Body—Until You Change It
Emotions from the past become hardwired into the nervous system. If you keep revisiting old emotional states, you keep recreating old results.
Dispenza’s work aims to help people break those emotional loops.
2. Elevated Emotions Are the Engine of Change
Feelings like gratitude, joy, love, and compassion create biological changes including:
- improved heart–brain coherence
- lowered stress chemistry
- increased resilience
- increased creativity and intuition
These elevated emotions are central to Dispenza’s meditation techniques.
3. Meditation Can Rewire Your Brain and Identity
Meditation, in this framework, isn’t about relaxation—it’s about transformation.
By observing old thought patterns and shifting into new emotional states, you begin to build a new identity from the inside out.
Dispenza calls this process “becoming nobody”—emptying yourself of past conditioning so something new can emerge.
4. The Heart–Brain Connection Matters
A major theme in the book is “heart coherence”—a calm, rhythmic heart pattern that improves emotional regulation and clarity.
According to Dispenza, when your heart and brain synchronize:
- intuition increases
- stress decreases
- your emotional state stabilizes
- creative problem-solving becomes easier
5. The Quantum Field and Possibility
Dispenza introduces the idea that our thoughts and emotions interact with a larger field of energy (the “quantum field”). Whether taken literally or metaphorically, the lesson is the same:
How you feel and what you believe shapes what you perceive as possible.
What Practices Does the Book Teach?
Dispenza provides step-by-step meditations designed to:
- break old emotional addictions
- cultivate elevated states
- visualize a future self
- regulate breath and energy
- strengthen intention
- create neural coherence
- shift from survival mode to creative mode
Some of the most well-known techniques include:
The Blessing of the Energy Centers
A guided meditation focusing on attention, breath, and elevated emotion to harmonize each energy center (or chakra).
Tuning Into New Potentials
A meditation for entering a deeper state and connecting emotionally with your desired future as if it’s already happening.
Changing Beliefs & Perceptions
Using awareness to dissolve old thought patterns and replace them with new ones.
These exercises form the daily foundation of his community’s transformation stories.
Why People Love This Book
Readers often resonate with the book because it blends:
- science
- spirituality
- personal empowerment
- transformative stories
- practical tools
It offers hope that change is possible—even radical change.
Dispenza’s retreats and online meditations have built a global community of people reporting significant improvements in:
- mood
- anxiety
- stress levels
- sense of purpose
- emotional resilience
- creative flow
Again, results vary person to person, but the appeal is clear:
People are hungry for a path to inner change.
A Balanced Perspective
It’s important to view Dispenza’s work as a blend of science-informed concepts, metaphorical models, and spiritual practices—not strict medical or scientific doctrine.
Many readers treat it as a holistic personal development system, not a medical treatment.
Used that way, the book can be deeply transformative.
Final Thoughts: Becoming “Supernatural” Starts Within
Dr. Joe Dispenza’s Becoming Supernatural is ultimately about possibility—the idea that by shifting from survival to creation, from conditioned emotions to elevated states, from past-based identity to future-based intention, you unlock your deepest human potential.
It’s a book about becoming more:
- aware
- open
- intentional
- emotionally expanded
- creatively alive
Whether you take its claims symbolically, literally, or somewhere in between, its invitation is powerful:
Your future isn’t determined by your past—it’s determined by who you decide to become.
