Dr Joe Dispenza is an American author, lecturer and teacher of meditation who argues that people can rewire their brains and change their health and lives by changing their thoughts and emotions. He trained as a chiropractor and is the author of New York Times bestsellers including Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself, You Are the Placebo and Becoming Supernatural.
Brian Rose has interviewed Dispenza five times on London Real between 2018 and 2022. They have talked about his book Becoming Supernatural, meditation, neuroplasticity, epigenetics, stress, habits of thought, and how holding on to past emotions can stop people creating a new future.
Every interview is listed below in order, with a short summary of each.
How To Create Your New Reality (August 2022). His most recent London Real interview and the fullest statement of his approach to letting go of past emotions and creating a new future. For background on Becoming Supernatural, watch Wild At Heart (2018).
Dispenza argues that most people live by the same thoughts, choices and emotions every day, so their lives stay the same. Speaking in 2019, he said lasting change starts with noticing and interrupting those automatic patterns.
In his 2022 interview he said that holding on to the emotions of the past keeps people stuck, and that they need to stop reliving old feelings before they can create a different future.
Meditation is central to everything he teaches. He presents it as a way to rewire neural pathways and lower stress, and his workshops and retreats are built around long guided sessions.
Dispenza tells the story of breaking six vertebrae in a 1986 cycling accident and says he recovered without surgery through visualisation. He presents mind-body healing as possible for others.
Dr Joe Dispenza is an American author, lecturer and meditation teacher with a Doctor of Chiropractic degree. He is known for books such as Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself and Becoming Supernatural, and for workshops and retreats on meditation and personal change.

Five times between 2018 and 2022: twice in 2018, twice in 2019 and once in 2022.
Becoming Supernatural, published in 2017, is Dispenza’s book on how he believes ordinary people can use meditation to change their brains, bodies and lives. He discussed it with Brian Rose in 2018 and 2019.
No. His doctorate is a Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Life University in Atlanta. His post-graduate interests include neuroscience and neuroplasticity, but he is not a medical doctor or a neuroscientist.
Dispenza says he was hit by a vehicle during a triathlon in 1986 and broke six vertebrae. He says he chose not to have surgery and recovered using visualisation, a story that underpins much of his teaching.
