Deep dives
The power of subconscious programming
Our subconscious programming, acquired through observation and imitation, greatly influences our beliefs and behaviors. These programs, downloaded in the first seven years of life, often dictate 95% of our daily actions. While our conscious mind is capable of setting goals and desires, it is overshadowed by subconscious programming, which directs our thoughts and actions without our awareness. This programming can have negative consequences, such as hindering our ability to manifest the life we want. By understanding the power of our subconscious programming and working to reprogram it, we can break free from limitations, tap into our true potential, and create the life we desire.
The importance of conscious versus subconscious mind
Our mind consists of two parts: the subconscious mind and the conscious mind. The subconscious mind operates below our awareness, carrying out automatic functions like regulating bodily processes. The conscious mind, located in the frontal region of the brain, is responsible for our wishes, desires, and decision-making. Both minds have distinct functions. The subconscious mind is like a hard drive, running on pre-installed programs acquired during our early years. The conscious mind, on the other hand, serves as the creative mind, capable of setting goals and desires. However, our conscious mind is only active about 5% of the time, as we spend the majority of our day lost in thought. This means that our actions and behaviors are mostly driven by the subconscious programs we acquired in childhood.
The impact of stress on our biology
Stress, particularly chronic stress, has a profound impact on our biology. When we perceive a threat, our body's stress response, also known as the 'fight or flight' response, is activated. This response involves the release of stress hormones, such as cortisol, which reshape our biology to prepare us for a physical response. Under stress, blood is preferentially sent to our limbs to facilitate physical movement, while other functions, such as digestion and immune response, are temporarily shut down. Prolonged or chronic stress can have detrimental effects on our health, suppressing our immune system, compromising our cognitive function, and contributing to various illnesses. It's important to recognize the impact of stress on our biology and take proactive steps to manage and reduce stress in our daily lives.
The power of beliefs and the mind-body connection
Our beliefs and thoughts have a strong influence on our biology and overall well-being. Quantum physics and the placebo effect have demonstrated the power of beliefs in shaping our reality and health outcomes. Positive beliefs and thoughts can activate the body's regenerative mechanisms, leading to improved health and well-being. Conversely, negative beliefs and thoughts, particularly those associated with aging and illness, can manifest as physical symptoms and hinder our ability to live a vibrant and healthy life. By recognizing the importance of our beliefs and actively working to cultivate positive and empowering thoughts, we can harness the mind-body connection for optimal health and well-being.
Using Energy and Vibrations for Communication and Relationships
The podcast episode explores the concept of using energy and vibrations as a primal form of communication in relationships. Good vibes enhance our energy and a harmonious connection with others, while bad vibes drain our energy and should be avoided. The speaker emphasizes that feelings and energy are the fundamental means of communication for all living organisms, even before language or touch. Primitive organisms like snails and plants rely on reading energy vibrations to guide their behavior. The podcast encourages listeners to trust their own feelings and choose relationships and experiences that enhance their vitality.
Reprogramming Habits and Beliefs for Personal Growth
The podcast discusses three methods of reprogramming habits and beliefs for personal growth. The first method is self-hypnosis, where individuals listen to positive programs during their theta state before falling asleep to reprogram their subconscious mind. The second method involves repetition and practice, where individuals consciously behave in a new desired way to form new habits. The third method is energy psychology, which focuses on changing beliefs through modalities like tapping or engaging in deep introspection. Energy psychology can create profound shifts in a short time by accessing the super-learning state of the mind. The podcast highlights the importance of regularly engaging in intuitive thinking and tapping into the superconscious for personal transformation and empowerment.

Our minds are incredibly powerful, and we know our mindset and thoughts can influence our health, manifestations, and actions. But when we face challenges or engage in repetitive patterns, it's difficult to know the steps we need to take to liberate ourselves from negative thoughts or tendencies.
Today on The Dhru Purohit Podcast, Dhru sits down with biologist and world-renowned author Bruce Lipton. Bruce shows us how our minds are like computers and discusses how most of our programming comes from watching our environment before the age of seven and can often include self-sabotaging behaviors. Bruce shares tips on how we can become aware of our dysfunctional programming and empower ourselves to manifest the life we intentionally want to create. He also breaks down the difference between the subconscious mind, which allows us to function on autopilot, and the conscious mind, which involves thinking with intention and purpose. Bruce deep dives into the science behind action versus reaction, how it impacts our health, and the steps we can take to prevent illness and promote longevity.
Bruce Lipton is a stem cell biologist and best selling author. His research challenges the traditional view that genes determine our biological destiny and suggests that our perceptions and experiences play a crucial role in shaping our health.
