Most of us don't consider ourselves to be brainwashed or programmed. Most people think they are in complete control of their thoughts and actions.
The truth is, though, that most people are almost completely programmed robots. And yes, that probably includes you and it includes me.
From even before we are born we are inundated with programming. How to react to this. What to do when that happens.
What we like to eat. What smells we like or don't like. Everything. It is all the result of our past experiences and many of them are programmed by our cult(ure).
In today's "walk n' talk", I try taking a different tack with my disobedient anarchist dogs and get approximately the same result as always.
And I discuss how I continue to realize just how programmed I have been and I give my top 3 ways that I have begun to deprogram myself.
You can see it here:
Once you begin to deprogram yourself and actually, consciously have thoughts and take conscious action it is an incredibly freeing experience. It is, in fact, like living a completely separate, new life... one in which you are much more in control of your reality.
Most of us have been having the ship steer us our whole lives. You'll be amazed how much better life is when you are actually steering the ship.
I couldn't agree anymore with this post Jeff! I started deprogramming myself through the process of daily meditation for an hour a day, every morning. And I am proud to say that 8 years of doing this daily is 99.9% responsible for knowing Who I Am today and the very all-around selective lifestyle that I live as it pertains to my interaction with all sorts of nouns lol. If anyone is interested on starting the same practice, I highly recommend researching Bill Harris of CenterPointe.. Great folks over there! Great post and I hope your influence is enough to send a few more Steemians on this journey of rediscovering your true self and living a MUCH BETTER and at-peace life as a result. I do warn you, the process can be a bit up and down emotionally because its never fun to find out for the first time that one is 100% responsible for the things one attracts into one's life.. It's a shocking and hard pill to swallow at first but once you do, true liberation shows up almost immediately after that acceptance stage. Resteemed!

Hi The Grateful, Can you explain this: "one is 100% responsible for the things one attracts into one's life"?

Hi @ugetfunded. It's an experiential truth. Meaning that one would have to experience this truth in order to fully know it but I will attempt to put it in words. The simple version of this comes down to the true creative force in one's life --- one's inner self-talking or dialogue. We all do it all day long, everyday. Actually doing it now.
This can be in auditory form (literally speaking to yourself or others in your head and hearing it in your head) like replaying an argument with one's significant other or friend after the argument has been had. Some people are more visual and see stuff in their mind and see it over and over. And some people are more into touch like feeling a friend hug them and say "congratulations on your new job" or get pushed by someone while hearing them screaming "get this crypto nonsense talk out of my face."
These inner conversations that we have with ourselves carry varying degrees of intensity, repetition and authority ( these are the three most effective ways to send an accepted message to your subconscious mind, which does all of the heavy lifting of creating and sustaining your being).
The other side to this "creation cycle" (for lack of better words) is that your mind doesn't just listen to the messages that you code into it, but it is also easily coded by "external" or third party entities like influential individuals like Jeff Berwick, Warren Buffet, Michael Jordan, The Pope, etc; institutions like government, church, and long standing traditions like institute of marriage; and any other third party idea, person or school of thought that you subscribe and Believe the ideas that they present to you about yourself (what you can/cannot achieve, deserve, etc); the world ("money is the root of all evil"); and other people ("people are so selfish and never want to help when you need them"). Now, there's nothing wrong or right about anything that I've said so far or anyone/thing I've mentioned so far. The issue at hand, and what Jeff is speaking to is this:
Because our minds are literally bombarded by thousands of different types of messaging from personal/family demands to social media, to advertisements on tv and billboards on the highway on one's drive home, and to radio -- our minds become too noisy and makes it very difficult for one to hear or notice the Unproductive imaginative activities that we participate in within our mind. And for some reason that's unknown to humanity (other than we know that it works) these self-generating and self-executing (I use the word 'self' because this is one thing in life one cannot blame or point the finger at another for doing) imaginative activities that we engage in within our minds advance into our future and faces us at an unknown but guaranteed time.
And when these mental activities catch up to us in the future, we blame/credit others or whoever was used as a part of manifesting one's own creation that one forgot about (because of passing of time) when it confronts them in the future.
From my experience after 8 plus years of daily meditating is that meditation does not make you some sort of enlightenment guru. I think that the enlightenment in the whole process is found in one being able to use meditation to slow down their mind enough to be able to gain more awareness or actually SEE one's imaginative activity (in the NOW -- where all creation happens) and then use that awareness to simply CHOOSE ('free-will') a different state of mind that's congruent with the kind of experiences or lifestyle that one wants out of life. And one will be pleasantly surprised to see that the Universe does not discriminate and will gladly hand one whatever experiences of life that one CHOOSES through their imaginative activity or one's feelings/moods (whether good, bad, or indifferent)...
Some people ask for proof or evidence of this and I tell them the same thing each time: Look at your current life right now. Is it consistent with most things you claim to want? They usually say "no but..." and I follow up with this question: "Can you please name one thing in existence that was not first imagined?"
And then I finish with this: Take 10 minutes to relax and try to take an honest inventory of one's most recent thoughts... especially the subtle ones dating back to 7 days ago and then take another inventory of your most recent experiences ... the direct correlation is all over that list ... if one is being honest to self.
For anyone wondering, a real world example of a subtle thought or shift in consciousness is this "Hmmm, I wonder how Jerry and his wife are making out with their new marriage..." And then (sometimes within a few minutes or hours or days) Jerry calls one to catch up with an old buddy and the two go on to discuss Jerry's newly wed life.
I hope this was helpful in shedding some light on the experience and if anyone else here has anything else to contribute, please do. As I stated in the beginning, it is an experiential truth. Meaning that one probably won't fully grasp it or be able to stand on it as firmly as I do, until you've undergone the process (with the help of meditation) and received one's own evidence of what I just attempted to speak on with words... Many blessings to you

And THAT decision you just made is the exact same reason why I invest the time and energy to write my comments. See I didn't come on Steem to get rich, as I am already financially prospered with or without Steem or blockchain technology. I've literally carried so many ideas, thoughts and experiences in my head for too many years -- not feeling comfortable enough on anyone platform to share it there... And then I found out about Steemit and the rest has been history. I was initially nervous that people here would think "talk too much" but it's been quite a pleasant surprise to see that this community not appreciates my passion for sharing in detail (so people can get the real juice in things) but it is highly recommended on Steemit. And I find that this is the biggest reason why I felt like I "fit in or belong" on Steemit. Please let me know if you come across any questions during your research. I'm always happy to contribute however I can.

I believe he is referring both what we take into our body on a physical level as well as the idea that our thoughts and beliefs effect our reality. It is through the advancement of certain technologies, and epigenetics which has created a scientific platform of understanding for what was previously only seen as a spiritual concept. I'll elaborate further if there is interest, but I will also be posting in regards to these concepts in the near future.

YES! from my experience the only way out is to deprogram all the words that have been embedded in your consciousness as mistaken absolutes that take power over you unconsciously. We have to retrieve the words that are low vibrational and break the belief in them, create the spells, and turning them back to the five elements.

Great post.. I was writing about this just the other week. If we ONLY knew how bad it is then maybe we might wake up! Here's something I feel that may shed some light on the situation:
I was in university in 1992 – 1996. One thing that sticks in my mind about that experience was a hypnotist show I saw. You’d think I'd remember more strongly something to do with studying, but no. This was one of the biggest lessons I think I could have taken with me from that experience. Now let’s be clear, there is no debate that hypnotists are able to do what they do, because it works. They are not playing tricks on us, using stooges, or prearranging anything. What this guy did on stage in front of our very eyes was quite revealing and disturbing. If you haven’t seen this on stage, then you may have seen it on TV where it is equally or even more disturbing. The ability of someone to utterly ruin someone’s perception of truth or reality is something not to miss! In the time it takes to make a cup of tea, we have someone seeing black as white, quite literally. We have an intelligent and sane person declaring that 2+2 =5 right there in front of our eyes. And what did it take to achieve that? Just a few suggestions and a prod. Now, take this knowledge, and think about a 24/7 barrage of ‘hypnotic’ suggestions coming in from all directions, from every angle. Think about the quality and quantity of messages we receive just from our media alone. How do we stand a chance? How can we expect anyone to overcome this total hypnotic reality? Well some do, and they go insane. Others do and they go religious, and some others do and go to sleep. Interestingly, that is the first and easiest thing for a hypnotist to do, to put you to sleep.

That's interesting empirical evidence you have of how suggestible we can be. Hypnotism has always fascinated me, but have never taken the time to deeply look into it. I may be wrong, but I haven't heard about someone having a response of significant influence from a hypnosis video before. I do know however, that hypnosis puts you into a theta wave state, in which you are subject to much more influence then when you are when in an alpha wave state (which TV induces). However, with the excessive exposure that many people have to TV today, with addition to the other tricks used in conjunction with the alpha state, It's effect over time can be quite substantial. As for kids below the age of 7, they are particularly vulnerable to TV programming as during this time they are in a theta state. They are basically in a state of hypnosis during this time while being exposed to TV brainwashing via (media/tv shows/movies). I personally think it would be more disturbing seeing hypnosis done in person, as just like you I saw a performance at my university in which I saw it done to my fellow students. I feel that at least for that time in my life, I would have been skeptical as to the validity of what I had seen if I had merely just seen it on TV, in which can be easily be fabricated.

Lol, it is true that knowing about some of this stuff could strengthen your belief in it's effect. It can either empower you or dis-empower you, the trick is to not just simply know of it, but to actually understand how it works. However, even if understood, exposure to many of the brainwashing methods should be reduced if not cut out entirely. Regardless of understanding, the alpha waves emitted by TV puts us in an unfocused and suggestible state, where we are often exposed to emotional scenarios coupled with a concept or idea they wish to implant. An emotional event + associated thoughts/beliefs strengthens the created memory , leading to it being more likely used as a point of reference when addressing relative issues in the future.

Every time I mention it though somebody parrots "you should eat 5 or 6 small meals per day!" even though those people never follow this advice themselves.

Congratulations on becoming healthier by moving to raw vegan diet eating mostly fruits. I highly agree that the diet is the main influencing factor with disease within the American society. However, I disagree that everybody needs to be on the raw vegan diet. Your genetic background, what your ancestors ate all through time, is the main contributing factor to how an individual's diet is determined. Then there are also disorders which determine what the diet must require.
Myself, having fibromyalgia, diet is extremely extremely extremely important. I went on a 100% vegetarian diet for several months and became very ill. I found that animal fats help to heal my intestines and help me to digest food more properly. I try not to eat more than one serving of meat a day though, sometimes I eat no meat in a day. I know I do not need much, so I'm certain to limit myself because I also know that too much of it can be quite harmful.
Meditation is not one of those things that you just get better at and get to stop practicing, lol. There are many things that can work for, but certainly not meditation.
Psychedelics saved me from my mind in ways I can't even explain but I'm sure you already understand. I've been so pleased to see the studies being sanctioned on psychedelics in the public eye so that the general populace may rise through the programming of their fear of these beautiful wonderful medicines.

@jeffberwick, Hi I have thought about this for last couple of years, how everything we do everything we thought most of our reactions that are supposed to be based on our 'free will', are actually plagued by commercial influences that are bombarding us anywhere we turn, from childhood cartoons to news we are honestly forced to read because they are literally everywhere around us, and this circumstances are in my opinion shaping our consciousness subconsciousnessly, because our brain is absorbing everything around us without us actually being aware of it at the moment, and when the time comes to make a decision that decision must be partially influnced by parts of what our brain has recently absorbed, and this can be called an 'opstructed freedom', so when you posted this topic here I would like to ask you, do you actually step away from these mind-attacks, if yes how

Hi @jeffberwick another great subject. Sure most of the peoples are brainwash from the little school til your old days you are told this and that. Most of all history from thousand of years are fake all made to make you a good sheep and follow what the top leader and hidden leader to a higher level want you to believe. They are every where education, medias, health industry, big corporation, food and of course on the first line the banks, all is done for you to believe in their shit. You believe our history is like that, we are the good guys from the wars we made all around the globe, but the true is the opposite. You believe the media, the news are the real deal but it is all fake just to make you think their way. You listen to our politicians and they say this and that but all is fake the only thing they do is to protect their interest and what ever you live or die they don't give a shit. Your are sick the doctors give you some drugs that are even worst for your body then the sickness itself. You have a cancer they give you chemo that cost a lot and kills you slowly enough for them to take your money out of your hands. Hollywood industries every movie contain some hidden message that you didn't see but your brain register the information, like the subliminal picture in the TV. Those big corporation who are making example of what the politicians said. The WiFi and other radio wave are also a way to send you some signal. The military industry complex who pay politicians to get to their goal sometime on the depend of peoples life. If you dig a little you will see how much all around us is based on lies. Thinks to do is to first destroy or sell your TV, don't read newspaper, try to avoid as much as you can cinema. Stop alcool and cigarette. use only natural soap and tooth paste without fluoride in it. Search internet and de-calcified your pineale gland eat vegetable and fruit from organic farm where they don't use chemical products to grow their plants. Do exercise yoga is good but meditation is the best and connect with the universal high consciousness. Your energy will get so high then nothing will stop you from be healthy wealthy and happy. Believe me this is how things works. Love and Happiness to all of you

These are very true and insightful words. If all human beings would work to de-program themselves, all the trivial things that we value so much or fight about so much would not be a part of our lives anymore, and we'd finally have the peace and happiness we say we want.

It is easy to have a common opinion .

Hey Jeff,
This is very true, but living in a structured western society it isn't ALL bad. Applying structure to our lives for example is healthy. You just have to be self aware within this structure to make sure that you're still in control.
Something I try to do, is to learn about the things available outside of these structures that I live within. So many people for example on social media or Steemit will only follow the people that share their views or structures. It's so easy to get stuck in a loop where you are always reading about what you know and already agree with so your mind just stays on autopilot, interpreting it as the be all and end all.
Live in your structures, just stay in control and understand what's going on outside of them. Structures aren't brainwashing, it's the lazy habits within them that do that.

you are right! modern medicine does not prevent people from getting sick they sell you a "cure". Most of the people don't know how real life is because they watch too much fiction. I used to wacht movies and tv shows but now I consider it a waste of time almost every movie is the same history intrudaction, problem, solution. alway a good guy and a bad one, fighting for a chick haha so shitty!

This is a fact...we are brainwashed....:(
We are made to function in a way that will never help us succeed and truly be free.
Some times, we are so brainwashed that it screws us over in the end, which causes a millenial epidemic!
I would love to one day steer the ship, but for now I will live how I have been geared to do! Enjoy it! And steer the ship differently for my daughter and future children otherwise:)

Not sure if you know who Bruce Lipton is, but a lot of what you are discussing here has been proven by Dr.Lipton.
He was a cellular biologist and one of the first to clone cells. He shows how we are programmed from before birth and especially the first seven years.
He also discovered in his research about Epigenetics - the control of Your environment over how your body changes in reaction to it, basically saying that the genes you were born with do not determine your life completely.
I have his book The Biology Of Belief and have read it a few times, also gave it to my doctor to read and he said it was great, although it contradicted quite a lot of his training but also confirmed it too.
If you haven't heard of him, I suggest getting his book(s).
I enjoyed your video, not many willing to make videos like this! Cheers!

I enjoy your walks and your advise. I noticed it so much here Vegas. Brainwashing is nonstop. I realize more and more all of everywhere you turn or look each day. Then to hear you talk about it and to hear all these things. I searching, wanting and needing to hear these things. Going to try the fruit diet out, now. Been doing the fasting and it has been doing wonders, I have actually done fasting before. The brainwashing seriously prevents you from remembering or even knowing such simple things Been watching you for a while and I do see the changes in your health over the past few months, great job man. Thank you @jeffberwick for all the great advice and good vibes.

As always a cracking true post. I know what you mean about TV I have not had one for two years. But occasionally watch it and you spend the whole time look at the subliminal messaging is amazing what they hide. I mainly watch documentaries and the like.
I've been veggie for years. I am moving in a few weeks without my partner and her son. I am going vegan (she won't do it a she NEED MEAT due to her blood type and her son NEEDS it to grow health) I can't wait :)

As was mentioned in the video, we are most impressionable at young age. This is knowledge that has been known and used by those in power for a very long time. The furthest back known reference to this (that I know of) is by the Jesuits, who said "Give me a child till the age of 7 and I will show you the man." Anyway, great post, I will be following you! I will also be posting on similar content to this myself.

Very deep and informative. It makes you view the world differently when your eyes are open to the truth. You had some very great points and your viewpoint is spot on with identifying what the issue is which only means you do your fair share of research. The harshness of reality is that people are aware of they problems yet so comformable living a lie. Keep on shining your light brother.

I do agree to some of what you have said, especially the food, smoking, and alcohol. Kids as young as 10 are smoking these days and when asked why they smoke most of them say that they do it to lessen the stress.
What kind of stress does a 10-year-old have? The world is going bonkers, and we are just following each other. No one really has an idea of what is happening and why.
May be some of your ideas are worth following, but then it is nearly impossible to implement your ideas in our world.
How long have you been on a fruit diet? I was on it for about two-three months, I did eat a little-roasted chicken once a week and flat Indian bread once a day. And I was healthy, but I didn’t get ripped muscles as you did. Lol.

I have a degree in systems and have specialised in deprogramming human systems for over 10 years. I made a series of posts on thist topic on steemit recently that includes examples of criminal subliminal advertising in use in britain from major retailers and much more..

what's for a program to be deprogrammed
programs rather have themselves, reprogrammed
for humans, green tea and a long walk
silence in it's design, is always loud
ask and listen, you'll hear the sound
endless river of words, just talk
once I took up and self I programmed
got lost I didn't know my OS

A kid watching adults isnt brainwashing its just learning. Brainwashing is very specific kind of learning. Its forceful, its aggressive, its constantly there. You never get a brake from it.
If it would be brainwashing then the feminist would be right that we brainwash people to be heterosexual because thats what people see. You want to go that road? Lets not use extreme buzzwords to get a message through.
This reminds me of Life of Brian. Jeff tells his followers that you are all brainwashed and they repeat: "we are all brainwashed"

Loved this post!
Back in 2006 I watched television for the last time. It was a drama and I as I watched I realized; "this stupid shit program is totally stressing me out!" That day I decided I was tired of being emotionally manipulated and haven't watched TV since.
Back then I wasn't aware of any nefarious
agenda behind the manipulation, but just think about it. We've all been trained to sit passively in our living rooms while one disaster or another threatens to cause our annihilation because a hero will always come to our rescue. All we need to do is stay in our houses and watch it all unfold. Everything will be just fine.
That's undoubtedly what a whole lotta people will do if these bastards decide to enact some crazy plan to annihilate the planet. Only this time they'll leave the hero out of the script.
Anyway that's how it looks to me.
Jeff, I really enjoy the blogs and vids. Totally love anarchist dogs. I'm a dog person too.
The advice you got sounds right. I'm quite sure dogs are telepathic. They don't need to understand words. They know exactly what we're saying. Don't let Jerry pretend otherwise.
Thanks for all your advice. Your insights often surprise me. Also your vids make me want to pickup and move to Mexico. Maybe some day.

Wake up!
One problem with our intellect is that it can give us a false sense of knowing. I read about something, I 'know' about it right?
It seems to me that the only way to know about something is to experience it, wouldn't you agree?

Yes Jeff, the mind is the main control method now that physical violence is more frowned upon. Besides, why fight someone if you can have him work for you and think it is his own will?
Ironically, even 'awakening' is often like that. They tell them 'think think don't be stupid' and then they give them what think --the schooling mode of operation.
It can get complex but if 'you' can think of nothing or your very own thoughts at will, you can actually be free, thought-wise. And if you can then speak your own truth, and allow the same for others, we can have actual freedom of speech --nothing to do with being 'correct'.

Yea, I agree. Its very important for people to hear this in order to attempt to be self aware.
Since we were born, we build walls in our mind. These walls become stronger over time as they are reinforced through our biases. Our biases are reinforced through a variety of programming and conditioning (family, friends, government, etc). Breaking down these walls (at least some of them) is the key to a free mind and personal responsibility.
Hope more people can see this within themselves and maybe we can just change a bit.
Thanks for sharing.
