EP 107 Harnessing the Power of Mind: Exploring Levels of Energy

0:00 What if your state of mind holds the surprising power to transform your physical health? Well, today we'll be talking about Frederick Dodson's book, Levels of Energy, the plan is to talk about your state of mind in relation to your health. I would say, think about the placebo effect, but more specific to several levels deeper. You're listening to the New Age Human Podcast, where we have mind expanding conversations around science, spirituality, and alternative health. To help you unlock your true potential and thrive in a rapidly changing world. My name is John Astacio and I've been in the health and wellness industry for over 10 years, helping people improve their mental and physical wellbeing using lifestyle changes.

0:46 And now immersive meditation. I just ran out of saliva right there, but, um, as you know, my mission is simple as it's to help professionals like you and change makers like you go from stress to clarity so you can navigate uncertainty and live a life of purpose. So today, um, yeah, we're going to be pulling from Frederick Dodson's book levels of energy. So I want to read to you a little bit of a background so you know who this is. If you haven't heard of this guy, definitely recommend reading that book, especially if you're looking for more self awareness, mental clarity, and, um, just be able to Make positive changes in your life, especially if you want to be a successful, um, business owner.

1:30 Right? So Frederick Dodson's a personal development coach, author, and speaker who specializes in the areas of consciousness, levels of energy and manifestation his teachings are blended metaphysical insights with practical strategies to help raise. their energy levels and improve their lives through self awareness, mental clarity, and deliberate creation. now we all are fans of, uh, metaphysical insights here that we're not strangers to that. We've had plenty of people on the show that dive into that and then mixing it with practical strategies. That's, I feel like what he's doing is, is what I aspire to do.

2:13 Now that book was really cool because Like I said earlier, there's a part of it, and there's a story that I want to share with you where he goes into how your mindset affects your health. And we're going to go again, beyond the placebo effect, because that is just, let's say the tip of the iceberg. So, first I want to start off with telling you the levels of energy that Frederick Dodson goes over and then I have some information from another book which is, um, What's his name? I got the book right here. Hold on. Uh, David Hawkins, the power versus force.

2:55 So, um, Frederick Dodson does have a similar, uh, I would say spectrum of consciousness that he dives into. And, and these, these two books have really changed my outlook on how we, how our thoughts affect our lives. And I also want you to think about, Frequency, vibration, because your mind, right? Creates thoughts. Those thoughts are things. Those thoughts are frequencies. Those are vibrations. And if you're familiar with cymatics, that is, that's literally you seeing how frequency changes matter into shapes and geometry.

3:38 So, I hope that you just now, if not before, see that connection. Let's get into the levels of energy. I, this was really cool. So this is his scale of consciousness progression. It's very similar. If you're familiar with power versus force with David Hawkins, it's very similar. But, um, because we're going to be pulling from a story from Frederick, I wanted to give you his scale. So you can better digest it. And this story was pretty wild. And, uh, okay. So it's from zero to a thousand, that's the scale and you have different levels. So from zero to a hundred, it's considered the hellish states characterized by negative emotions, like shame and guilt.

4:25 So I want you to think of, as we go through these different levels, If you know anybody that is in this or even some movies, right? So I'm gonna go over that and then maybe give you some, hmm, some examples of each, but I, I just wanna go through the levels first. So one, I'm sorry, zero to a hundred is hellish states 100 to 1, 99 is low. And animalistic emotions such as fear and anger, two hundred and two ninety nine is function and physicality. Three hundreds are success and productivity. 400s are intellectual pursuits and rational thinking.

5:06 500 is joy and love. And 600 to 1, 000, which is like a huge, like, jump, and like, I, I, yeah, anyways, is peace and bliss. So, going back to 0 to 100, this part I want to drive home, especially because at the time of recording, we are in October. And I'm in the Northeast of United States, which is like, when you think of Halloween, you think of the Northeast. So hellish States think of, uh, the best thing I can think of is think of those movies.

5:48 The ones where that person, the main character gets possessed. What happens leading up to that possession? Well, weird things start to happen. And a lot of times I've seen this pattern where again, movies come from something, right? They do their research. And one of these movies comes from a true story and I think it's called Paranormal. And, um, yeah, the main character, just stuff happens, like things in the room start moving, stuff falls from the wall, uh, from the, from the, um, shelf. And she doesn't know what's going on.

6:30 Things progressively, progressively get worse. But the worst part of it is, yes, there's some scary stuff going on, but no one believes her. Even not even her own husband, right? Your life partner doesn't believe you. And so you start to doubt yourself. So think of like self doubt, feeling alone, and really living in fear. That is that 0 to 100 hellish state, right? Negative emotions, shame, guilt. Um, and When, uh, the closer you get to zero, Frederick said something very interesting, the closer you get to zero, the more susceptible you are to demonic entities or negative entities that live in different realms that don't possess, possess a body and would love to, and that is a very vulnerable place.

7:26 Keep that in mind. Again, if you, if, if you or someone, you know, is in that area. Be mindful of that and maybe have them listen to this episode. They might appreciate it for sure. Next level is 100 to 199 that low animalistic emotion area, fear and anger. Think of that person that is on edge all the time and it's easy to get them angry. And then at the same time, as you communicate with them, they share that they have a lot of fears. And so there's a lot of us now that drop into that fear. consciousness and it's hard to navigate through life when you're living in fear.

8:09 So I encourage you to, or at least those people to slow down with social media, right? There's a lot of division out there. And find time for yourself, find time to, if you really need to know what's going on, which for sure, by all means, know what's going on in the world, but do your research, right? Find somebody that is in that realm that you're in. Professional space, ask them questions, find the source, right? Follow the money. The level, next level is 200 to 299. Function and physicality, where basic needs are met.

8:51 200 to 299, that's like middle America. That's like white picket fence, two cars. Two and a half kids. Um, the Joneses, so to speak, where all of your basic needs are met and even have the dog, you have food on the table, you have a roof over your head and you're living comfortable. You don't want to shake the, uh, paradigm, so to speak. And, um, you know what, since we're in the two hundreds, I want to go back to 100 to one in 99. Apparently Frederick Dodson believes that conspiracy theorists.

9:33 Are in the 100 to 199 and it's kind of interesting how you have fear and anger. And next time you listen to somebody talk about conspiracies again, I love talking about conspiracies and thinking about them because it makes you think outside of the box, but I don't allow it to drop me into fear. I allow it to keep my mind open and keep myself questioning because that's how we make positive change, right? You would question the narrative and question the norm. You try something new, but. Be careful of that fear and anger. So, um, back to 200 to 299. Yeah, that's, that's middle America. Um, I'm only, I, I've only lived in America, but, um, If you're in the UK or a different country, uh, I know, I noticed that a lot of you guys listen from all over the world.

10:22 So I appreciate you for listening in, but think of like, all your basic needs are met and maybe that person doesn't want to rattle the cage and speak out. Right. It's just like, You do your basic stuff. Next level is three hundreds. Three hundreds is very interesting because that is the success and productivity focusing on achievement. And in that book, he talks about how you can identify these people where they tend to wear flashy clothes. Like think of that friend. That's very entrepreneurial. They go to all the networking events. And they're all over social media, they seem to have all the answers and they're like the go getter They and they dress the best Maybe they have like a nice fancy car because they're making more than the person that is just, um, living, um, based off of function and physicality.

11:11 Like they're doing more than just putting food on the table. They, they want more. They aspire to, to, to be more and to change lives. And they're reading all the self help books. That's someone who's in the three hundreds. And at least, uh, most of the time we all fall down and up through this scale and on a different episode I want to give you a hint that moving up and down the scale Um does involve narcotics and psychedelics and that's a really interesting one Um, david hawkins goes into a little bit more and i'm working on an episode like that. So sneak peek into that You just got a heads up.

11:52 Uh, let's okay. So next is four hundreds, four hundreds is intellectual pursuits and rational thinking. Uh, from what I remember, Frederick Dotson mentions this. When he talks about the geniuses out there, the ones that are really creative. If you, or you know, a friend that is like, they, they get lost. They can lock themselves in their. And they just do research all day. This is like the hardcore person that time stops and you, you tap into this place of like almost infinite creativity.

12:34 Think of, I believe Einstein is like high four hundreds, um, really, really intelligent people. And oftentimes you, we know them as so smart that they start to lose, emotional intelligence and they're just the awkward bunch. And I feel I identify more so with the 400s because I remember just in school, I would just sit down in a different area of art class and have my own projects because they were just all too easy. And um, yeah, it was just, It was, it was fun, but at the same time it was boring.

13:15 It was like, I was like the annoying kid that would always raise his hand and, and have all the answers because I just love to doodle and draw and create and, and, and just do that type of thing. Uh, and then there's also the, the techie people that love to take apart, uh, phones and, and, and that was me too. I took apart a whole freaking yo yo. Uh, I made my own glow in the dark or, um, watch. Long story, I just had fun. I even put together, um, you know, those race tracks where you have, you plug it into the wall and it's like, uh, you, you have a trigger and it goes around and around in a circle or these loop de loops and stuff.

13:58 And it's electric driven, like little tracks that these cars are put on. I added, I put together two of those and that means that you have to plug it in. So I gave it twice the power. I had two controllers per car and, um, let's just say there was a lot of smoke and, um, Dents in the wall, but it was fun, right? And embrace that. Next level is 500. That's joy and love marked by unconditional love and appreciation. I remember him, Frederick, talking about 500s being that person. And in my own language, from my point of view, Because they're just positive all the time, right?

14:46 They're just blissed out. Imagine someone who seems like they're high all the time, right? And you're like, I'm happy for you, but I'm also concerned because someone's going to take advantage of you. So, not necessarily, They're in a place where they're going to be taken advantage of. I would say the person that we get taken advantage of is the one that is Artificially in that state of mind. When you level up and get there through life experiences, that's when harder, you're unmoved by people's negativity. You are more compassionate to others.

15:30 Let's say this, a 500 is not going to yell at somebody on the highway because they cut them off. They're going to be like, you know what, that person probably has something they got to do. Maybe their wife is pregnant. They're driving to the emergency room. Maybe they have to go to the bathroom. They're trying to find the next exit, right? And I do my best to think that way. And a 500 is, I think Frederick Dawson mentioned that 500 is, Like, Tony Robinson, someone who is thinking on a more global scale, and um, how they can help the masses, and I aspire to do that. Next level is 600 to a thousand. We're going to couple these all together because that is just beyond what most people have been able to achieve that peace and bliss.

16:17 Like that's just next level that person. And it's interesting. Frederick says, and it's very important to bring this home. A person that's around 600 plus, they're not necessarily trying to make money. They're not necessarily trying to have like a high level of success. They have no need for it. If anything, they walk around and their lifestyle is based off of constant co creation. They walk into a room and the whole energy of the room changes. And if, You are, if you want to think about it, as you get to a thousand, a thousand is closer to the avatars of our history that changed the world on a massive scale.

17:04 Think of Jesus of Nazareth, where he was doing things that this seemed to defy. Our current laws of physics, walking on water and turning water into wine. This is where it gets really cool. This is where a lot of the metaphysical, um, things come into play. Where, remember Jesus said, All things that I am doing, you can do that and more. I know I butchered that, but he was basically saying that like, Everything that I'm doing, You will be able to do that and more. And it's that example that he set for getting to a thousand, which is really cool because as we do other episodes, I'm going to show you how these people, Frederick Dotson, David Hawkins, how they came across this levels of consciousness and by using something called muscle testing, your muscles have the ability, your body knows absolute truth and false.

18:16 And I'm going to leave it at that. Can I just leave you a little cliffhanger? I know some of you guys are pissed off. What do you mean do the research? I'm going to do another episode. No worries. But if you really want to get into that, I really do shoot me an email. Go to new age, human. com forward slash. I think contact or just go to each human. com and hit the contact button. You might have to do the whole HTTPS forward slash WWW because there's some security things I got to work on anyways, uh, or just wherever you're listening or watching, just respond to this. And I'm just curious about your thoughts. And if you've heard of this, which I would not doubt if you have, uh, so now I want to get into that story that I told you about earlier.

19:02 All right. I call it the levels of energy story, but I like to bring this story up to friends that I, you know how you get into that conversation and then it just goes there and it gets deeper and deeper. And then like an hour goes by. I love to bring this up when it comes to your mindset and your health. Again, remember. Beyond the placebo effect. And I'm going to do my best to regurgitate this story because I was having a hard time finding it in the audio version of this book. So bear with me, but I'll set the scene. There's four friends, all different levels of energy. going on a hike, right? I think they're doing like a camping trip, but you know, you're going to hike to your spot, right?

19:46 And you're in the woods and there's brush and there's trees. It's a beautiful scene. And, uh, let me break down the different levels. And instead of you having to remember like a name associated to a number, I'm just going to call them by their number. So level 80, this person deals with sorrow, grief, self pity, depression. All right. So think of level 80. As person number one or just level 80 level one 60 is anger, domination, violence, rage, revenge. All right. One 60 three 20 willingness, eager, optimism, kindness, 500 joy and love unconditionally.

20:29 All right. So we have those four energies at the time. Frederick was level three 20. And so this is him talking about his story of going, me. Hiking in the woods as they're hiking one, um, level one 60 starts really scratching his legs and arms. And he's just like having a hard time. He's in pain. And they start to see that he is red all over his arms and legs. And he's, and he's, he's just like, really angry, pissed off because he's in pain and everybody had to stop the trip.

21:09 And then level 80 noticed once one 60s pain and rashes. And he's like, huh, that's weird. I'm not, I don't feel anything. But then he looks at his arms and legs and he's even more swollen than one 60. And he's like, wow, this is, this is annoying. Um, why does this happen to me? Right. And self, self harm. And then you have 320, which is Frederick. And he starts, you know, everybody starting checking, starting to check themselves out and, uh, Frederick he's level one, uh, 320 willingness, eager optimism. He starts to see that he's a little bit red. Right? But it's like, it doesn't really itch that much, not that much pain, and then, um, Level 500, which I believe was the one leading them, Joy and Love, Mr.

22:01 Joy and Love, Unconditionally, he has no pain, no rashes, nothing. and he's able to keep his mind focused on the trip, but he's compassionate and love enough in love enough to stop and kind of, you know, he's got, he's prepared. He's got like the ointments and stuff and he's helping out one eight, I'm sorry, one 60 and 80 deal with their pain. One 60 is screaming at this point. Um, and um, just recognize that. Let me go back to it. They all went through the same brush, but they're at different levels of conscious. And some of us might say, well, you know, maybe a level 80 just doesn't take care of his health.

22:43 Well, I'm sure it stems from self pity. But even if they're all physically fit, mindset is huge. You can do all the, you can lift all the weights in the world. You can eat all the healthy foods and go raw vegan or carnivore or whatever, paleo. Um, but if your mentality isn't there, your body's, All it can only do so much because at the end of the day, everything starts with frequency and energy and then manifests from there. So that is, I hope you enjoy that story of the different levels. I mean, 80 had, he was numb, but had very large inflamed reaction on his arms and legs.

23:27 160 was fricking annoyed, had all the pain and all the inflammation. 320 barely anything. 500 nothing. Okay. So if you want to, you're probably wondering like, how do I get into these different levels or how do I know my level again using these muscle testings and I'm not Frederick, but David Hawkins mentioned that you need to be a level 200 to be able to accurately, accurately understand your level. So how do you do that?

24:09 Well, now you've got to find someone who's technically certified 200. So my plan is to eventually get somebody that is. certified or I don't know what you call it. They just officially are 200 plus have the muscle test me. And if I'm 200 plus, which I'm sure I am, hopefully, I don't think I, uh, live in, um, fear and anger too much. Then I can start helping people in this aspect of things and start adding that to my, um, my sessions with people and going from there. I think you even do it remotely. I also want to end off with. A quote from David Hawkins before we finish our episode today.

24:55 So there's two parts. I got like a highlighter here. He says. All stress is internally generated by one's attitudes. It's not life's events, but one's reaction to them that activates symptoms of stress. Alright, stress is something that we all deal with. Even if you're a level 500, 320 and you drop into stress, you're going to be to the things that happen in that level of consciousness. Another thing is related to health. I thought you guys would like this. So modalities such as chiropractic, acupuncture, reflexology, and all of these are treatments.

25:36 However, These are designed to correct the results of an energy imbalance. But unless the basic attitude that is causing the energy imbalance is corrected, the illness tends to return. Okay, I hope that speaks some truth for you. I hope that triggers something for you, whether it be a remembrance. or curiosity. And I love being in curiosity because the world is, I don't get that phrase. The world is your oyster, but the world is your playground. So that is it for today. I really hope that you appreciate it. The like the story and different levels that I went over.

26:19 Let me know if you want more of this, this topic, this, this subject matter. I think, um, for those of us that want to get to a better place, both financially, personally, physically, um, this is huge. It is the key to unlocking a lot of your potential, right? But, um, other than that, thank you for showing up today, listening to the episode and, uh, yeah, let me know your thoughts with that said, I'll see you out on the next episode.
