A participant at one of Dispenza's retreats describes healing from a traumatic past — including an illness with no known cure — through sustained meditation, framing the process as reprogramming the body's chemistry through inner work alone.

I was actually arrested for something that I didn't do with a SWAT team with armed guns and they raided my home and they raided my business and they took everything. And turns out it's a mistake. But in that moment, your body doesn't know it's a mistake. I want to share with you that I healed my body without coming to an event. And it didn't seem important until I realized there are a lot of people out there that can't attend events. So years ago, I had a traumatic event happened and with that traumatic event, I rallied and I was a strong independent woman and I just moved forward and in moving forward that created illness in my body. Now, the illness was really, really bad, and I was given that you only have so long, and there was no treatment. I had sores inside my body, all inside my body, and my mouth and my eyes and coming out my fingernails and on my skin. And my children wanted me to go see a medical doctor. because I didn't see medical doctors. So, I did and they told me they told me that there was nothing they could do for me. It advanced too far. I couldn't eat certain things. Um, I could barely eat chicken and iceberg lettuce and bone broth. I could hardly take the medication, which isn't medication, but it was herbs and supplements and whatnot from my chiropractor and my and my natural doctors. Um, the blood tests were crazy and they couldn't understand how I got it because I there's no reason for me to have this. The main thing that was really difficult for me is I didn't have a voice. There were so all inside my throat and my mouth and under my tongue and I couldn't talk. And I refused to not talk. I refused to own that. And I knew there had to be a way out of it. I had heard something online with Dr. Joe saying that I could change my past because I knew I couldn't like cure my body with putting cells where they go or or vertebrae where they go like Dr. Joe did. I just I know I didn't have that in me. But I could change my past. I needed to change the emotion that I had linked to that past. So the one thing in life I thought I could never do was meditate. I'd done everything else, but it's like, okay, now the cursed meditation. So I bought an old intensive online. I listened to it more than once. I got an audio that was a meditation called Body Parts in Space. And I told my husband that I was going to go to the beach and I would be back in a week. I drugg my beach chair down to the beach with a blanket every morning, every afternoon, and every evening. And in the morning, my meditation was putting my nose in space, my lips in space, my cheeks in space, and I looked like Mr. Potato Head in space. My second meditation was more like Star Wars where the stars were going by me because I really didn't know what space was. And my third meditation of the day was just peaceful and quiet and I was listening to the waves and Dr. Joe tell me what to do. I knew that the important information were the first three things he told me to do. And that's to have an elevated emotion, a firm intention, and go into the field. didn't know what the field was and I knew how to have an elevated emotion and I used the ocean and my and pictures of my granddaughter and hearing her giggle to get the emotion I needed and my firm intention was to remove that emotion from that event. Seventh day I drag my chair down to the beach and I do my Mr. Potato Head meditation and the whole time I'm doing the breath wrong. I'm doing the meditation wrong and it's potato head and at the very end of every meditation he tells us to come back to a new line of time in a new body into our senses. So, I created a system in my head because I didn't know what that meant either that I had a rolodex and many people won't know what a rolodex is, but it's a card file and I would turn it and I would have an image on those cards and the image would be the time I wanted to come back to and it would be a picture of me in my life but a picture of me in my life without that emotion in a 100% body. Right? I told my husband I was going to come back in a week and I'd be healthy. So day seven, I picked my picture. I stood up. And when I stood up, I knew that I was well. I just knew. It was this kind of overwhelming feeling of knowing, oh my goodness, I did it. And I had no more soores. I I was hungry for the first time in months and months and months. And honestly, I thought of three things. I thought, "Wow, if I can do this, what else can I do?" And I wanted hamburger because all I could eat was chicken, bone broth, and iceberg lettuce for months and months and months. And that I wanted to go see Dr. Joe. I knew I created it. I knew I did it from smashing down those emotions in that crazy event that happened. And the event that happened, I try not to bring attention to it, but I was actually arrested for something that I didn't do with a SWAT team with armed guns and they raided my home and they raided my business and they took everything. And turns out it's a mistake. But in that moment, your body doesn't know it's a mistake and it was pretty traumatic. So that took a little bit from my life. I was at the end of my rope and it I usually have a really long robe. So I know that I'm my creator and I always have known that my missing piece was Dr. Joe, I know now there's no such thing as a bad meditation or a wrong meditation or a wrong breath. And at that point, I didn't know I was doing it wrong, which is the point of this video. I didn't do it the way I do it now, and I didn't do it the way I'm taught now. I know what space is. I know what the field is. I know how to get there. But if you follow the instructions, the three things he tells us to do, and when you come back in a new line of time, in a new body into the world of our senses, you can do anything.
