My Experience: Dr. Joe Dispenza-“The Formula”

 “The Formula ” is an online course one can purchase through Dr. Dispenza’s website. It takes the practices he’s taught at his retreats and in his books and has put them together as a type of class.  It’s a series of instructional and informational videos along with writing assignments and meditations to practice. It’s goal is to help you become the creator you truly are; learn to heal, learn how to manifest a new life or new creation for yourself

Right off the bat I’m going to be completely honest and say that I’ve technically been trying to do “the formula” since 2018 (the online course wasn’t created and available then but I had learned the concept from Dr. Dispenza’s work and practiced it nearly every day)…and I haven’t been able to manifest anything major. Not to the point that I can be one of those people who are featured on Dr. Joe’s YouTube channel, raving about their profound and remarkable experience. That said, I’m continuously looking at my experiences, doing more and more research and experimentation, trying to figure out what I’ve been doing wrong and what I may have been doing right so that I may one day perfect the process. After all, I am not one to throw my arms down in a huff, stomp my feet and exclaim, “It doesn’t work.” I know it works and what I for sure know is that I just haven’t figured it out yet. I’ll break this one down into those 2 categories; what’s worked and what hasn’t.

What hasn’t worked: Making the process too difficult

Since 2018 I’ve been attempting to manifest a complete change in my life. Looking back, from the very beginning the problem seemed to be that I wasn’t able to be clear on what exactly that looked like. I made so many of the little charts with the lists of what my changed life would look like and the lists of how I would feel if I had that new life. But every time I did them, they looked different. I figured at first that this was okay because certainly the universe had to know by now exactly what it was that I wanted.…right? Apparently not. I needed to be clearer with myself on what I wanted.

After that, I spent time trying to make my intentions clear. I thought this meant being as detailed about what I wanted. Even down to the how. In my meditations I would think about as many of the details surrounding my changed life as I possible in order to create a clear intention. This actually helped me to create a joyful feeling in my heart. Excitement, even. But the process still was not working.

 I now realize that this was working against me; the fact that some days I would wake up and be faced with the feeling of my wish having not been fulfilled yet, and I would be disappointed. If I was allowing this idea to fill my mind and the mind creates reality, then I was creating the reality of wish not fulfilled. I understand that much. So, how do I make myself feel like my wish is fulfilled? Do I have to convince myself of something that is not true, like a crazy person? Manipulate myself?  

Obviously there was a disconnect somewhere in the process and all I knew was that I had to be making the process too difficult. I knew this because not long after I began this journey, I actually did manifest something, just not that BIG CHANGE I was looking for.

What did work: I didn’t over-complicate this one

 In the winter of 2019 my husband and I were hit with a real doozy of an issue concerning our house. Long story short we were faced with a nearly $20,000 job that he HAD to have done, no questions about it.

I had been saving for a new car for 2 years and I had just about 16K in my bank account. I was so saddened that all my diligent saving would now be lost to this absurdly expensive job.

This was the successful manifestation that I created. Here’s what I know I did right

When I went into this manifestation, for some reason, even though it was quite a huge problem at the time, I didn’t go in with stress, urgency or doubt. A wave of calm came over me as I envisioned the problem being solved. I sat in a state of gratitude that it happened and I felt like I knew that it was indeed there in the quantum field, just waiting to be discovered. When I came out of my meditation and visualization, I was content. Every time I thought about our problem or when we discussed it, I remembered that state of calm and knowing, and that’s what I brought up in my mind and my body. Then I would think to myself, I already took care of this. It’s in the quantum field. I just have to wait for the solution to find us. That’s it.

What Did Work: A Watched Pot Never Boils

What was also important about this particular journey was that I didn’t continuously think about it or obsess over it. I went on with my life as usual. -I know! Seems too easy! There had to be some other metaphysical practice I should have been doing or maybe I should have brought up that meditation every single day, but I did not. I did the work in one sitting and moved on from it. Then, 2 weeks later, our solution came. And just as I had suspected, it was my husband who found it. 

 My husband teaches baseball and softball lessons and he comes into contact with MANY people each week through his work. Sure enough, it was the father of a lesson who had the solution to our problem. He had a small business that flipped houses for profit and his business had done well. He even had all the equipment to complete the job himself, plus paid workers to help. And because he liked and appreciated the coaching my husband had done with his daughter over the years, he did the work for us at an extreme discount. The issue was fixed at a fraction of the price. I didn’t need to drain the money I had saved for a new car or even tap into our savings! 

What hasn’t worked: Not taking the vibration of my wish fullfilled into my day

 I revisited “The Formula” for a second time over the summer trying to find details I may have been overlooking when trying to manifest. I found that one thing I was doing wrong was not taking the vibration and feeling of wish-fulfilled into my day. I would do my meditation, connect to the unified field, feel the joy of my changed life, but as soon as I came out of meditation and especially when I got back to work, that would all end. If it was my entire life I was wanting to change then I needed to feel as if my entire life had changed. This was not like the house issue where it didn’t affect me at all times to where I needed to give it my conscious energy all day. That manifestation was easy enough to sweep under the rug when I didn’t need to think about it. My entire life, on the other hand? Well, that would be my everyday reality. If I’m living in a state of lack then I will create a constant state of lack. I know that much.

 But how does one do this without overdoing it or making it too difficult? When I reached this point I actually quit, but not out of frustration. I quit so I could re-envision the process. You know what? That’s when Change actually began to happen in other areas of my life. I explained this in my blog post When Change Actually Started Happening.

What I’m doing now

Since quitting I’ve done more research and come up with a new plan. Since I’m taking it easy on myself and trying not to overly complicate things, I’m taking the process slowly. In order to make this process simpler I rewrote my chart with the details of what I want to manifest and simplified it. I no longer have long sentences explaining the details of what I want and I’ve narrowed down my list of how I will feel in this new reality to 5 simple words:

Grateful

Joyful

Unlimited

Relieved

Worthy

I wrote these down on a piece of paper and have it sitting at my workspace so I can see it everyday and remember the simplicity of the feelings I’m attempting to invoke. I’m also simply bringing up the feeling and not the details of what I want. Just the vibration/emotion of it. Simple being the important word here. 

Keeping is simple

 Today, when I do my meditations I start by simply trying to have a blank meditation. That is; focussing on emptying the mind. Every time a thought comes in, I simply move it off to the side and continue on with no thoughts. I keep it simple like that. I don’t get frustrated with myself when thoughts arise, I simply move them away and continue.

 Then, once I’ve achieved a calmer state of relaxed mind, I move to heart centered breathing where I place my attention on my heart and imagine breathing in and out of this space. Once I’ve done this and can feel energy collecting in my heart, I attempt to bring up heart-centered emotions such as joy or any of the 5 emotions I wrote down for myself. I pay attention to how my body feels, experiencing these emotions, and I attempt to sustain those for an extended period in my meditation. When I’ve done this for an extended amount of time my body begins to vibrate as my chakras open and pulse. This is the state where I begin the envisioning process. I envision small clips of what my life would be like living with my wishes fulfilled. If I do this correctly the vibrations in my body are amplified further. This is where I try to pay attention to how my body is responding so I can carry these emotions and physical feelings throughout my day.

When I leave meditation and go about my day I make it my goal to continuously bring up and sustain these feelings. I take small breaks as the day goes on, to breathe into my heart and create heart coherence, and simply pretend that my life is the most wonderful life I could imagine. Ease, simplicity, magic…Unlimited!

That’s it.

For now, at least. I don’t want to over-compliate the process.

One Last Thing

 I’m keeping the details of how and when out of this process. In working with letting go of control I’m letting those details be whatever the Universe decides is fitting. I’m learning to trust the process and have faith that I will do this correctly. I also feel that I need to insert a little more child-like glee into the process! My adult mind wants to control the outcome and consider smaller details that the inner child would never even consider. That’s why I need to let the how and when go.  

I hope now that I’m one step closer to creating the life of my dreams! I hope that one day I perfect this process and I can share the experience with others so that everyone can create a magical life for themselves as well!
