On the Science & Spirit of Self-Empowerment: Rewriting Your Programs by Bruce Lipton, PhD
Dr. Bruce Lipton, gave an electrifying workshop in NYC, on Saturday August 3, 2024 to a sold-out audience. The focus was the survival of humanity and the implications and transformation of early programming on our lives.
Most people can agree that knowledge is power. But what I offer in my talks is knowledge of self which is “self empowerment.” This is how we become the creator of our reality, not a presumed victim. As a former biology professor, I begin my lectures with an understanding of how our cells are designed to interact with the environment. One of my major points is the myth that your genetics rule your destiny. This is not true. I feel most illnesses do not run in families, but attitudes and the perceptions of the environment absolutely do.
A garden is the height of environmental harmony. We came to this beautiful Earth and literally and figuratively made war on the garden. As a matter of fact, the mission of Western materialism was to rape and pillage its resources — overriding the peace and abundance of life. We need to cooperate with each other, the plants, the animals, the air, the water. We have to do this now. It must be our first step. NASA scientists have given us two decades or else: BOOM! We’re out of here.
To clean up the planet and our lives we must deal with our personal psychology, because our thinking effects our biology (the inner environment) 100%. The brain is a computer that runs on the programs from the subconscious. People don’t realize that only 5% of their life is coming from the creative conscious mind. 95% of our life experiences comes directly out of the hard drive programmed by other people — parents, family, community, etc.
The programming started 3 months before you were born. If I asked you, “What programs did you get before you were born?” You would say, “I don’t know, I wasn’t there.” Most of your programs were downloaded before you were conscious. Who you are and what your life is about, is a printout of those programs. Look at your life right at this moment. If you have to work hard for good health, an uplifting relationship, or a satisfying job, those difficulties arise from programs that were installed before you were aware of them. When you see how you are struggling to achieve your desired goals, you will know what programs need changing.
Let me briefly give you three ways to shift the programs.
“The movie, The Matrix, is called science fiction but I say it’s a documentary, because the premise is that we are programmed. That is the scientific reality.”
– Dr. Bruce Lipton
Number one: Brain waves. Up to seven years old your brain was operating below conscious awareness called Theta waves – a hypnotic state, where you absorb everything around you. Therefore, if you want to change your life use “self hypnosis.” By listening to self-help programs as you fall asleep the repeated exposure can lead to improved levels in all parts of your life.
Number two involves the new age adage: “Fake it till you make it.” If you’re not a happy person say to yourself “I am happy.” After a while you won’t have to say it anymore. You will wake up happy. The program has been installed without having to do anything else. “Repetition / habituation” is how you add programs after the age of seven. Now these approaches can take time and we have to evolve quickly. We have two decades to fix the entire world!
Number three is a faster way called “energy psychology.” This is a different modality than conventional talk therapy where you talk endlessly about programs. In my opinion going backwards — talking about your past is a waste of time. It is time to do something about the past and move forward! Energy psychology engages something called “super learning.” For example, a child under seven is a super learner. Back then you could experience something once and the rest of your life you have a program from that one experience.
After age 7 learning is a lot more difficult. This technique, which involves brain coherence exercises, can quickly reformat old programs. In my workshops I demonstrate the “whole brain posture” for hemispheric integration. Since the left hemisphere controls your right limbs and the right hemisphere controls the left, crossing your arms and ankles causes hemispheric integration. By making a positive statement with this super learning dynamic, just like that kid under seven, in 5 to 15 minutes of repeating that statement you can walk away from that exercise with a completely different program. This is a very basic outline to a proactive approach called PSYCH-K®, which has many practitioners around the country. There are about 25 other forms of energy psychology resources on my website: https://brucelipton.com/resources
What more can I say? I can lead you to water. I can’t make you drink. But if I lead you there and you drink, you could possibly change your entire life. That’s what it’s all about! I hope this is a start to personal and planetary transformation.
