Publisher's 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 very interesting and an eye opening perspective

As a long-time meditator, I completely agree with many of his points in this book. We are our thoughts and are the products of our environments. Some of his ideas are oversold in hyperboles, but this book offers an excellent perspective to those mindlessly caught up in their daily lives. I recommend listening to absolutely everyone.

Thank you Dr. Dispenza!

This book has been a game changer. Nothing like evidence-based education to start on the quantum field.

I love it, what a beautiful reading!

I loved all of it. I enjoyed it as much as Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself.
I'm practicing the meditation, it's amazing.
Even though I'm healthy, I love everything he teaches about changing your body with the power of your brain-mind.
it's time for us to start to understand that we don't have to believe every thought we have. Sometimes those negative thoughts just makes us feel stress and they don't even happen, but still affect our health.
This book is a must!

life changing in the best way possible

I have no doubt that this book altered my life forever. This is a pivotal book that every single human should read. The stories are not only earth and belief shattering, but Dr. Joe gives you the tools and information needed to implement these methods in your own space and at your own pace so that you can live the life of your dreams. I highly recommend this read.
