Neurological Conditions (148)
The Damage Was Permanent – Until She Started Meditating
Leah, a healthcare provider, discovered her calf muscle had been carved away with testing showing a dead nerve and muscle turned to fat that was considered irreversible. After a year and a half of daily practice, she applied her medical knowledge to visualize the anatomical structure of her leg in extraordinary detail, imagining nerves reconnecting with fiber optic gold cords and rebuilding muscle architecture down to the myofibrils and mitochondria. During a group meditation at a women's weekend, a speaker announced 'connection successful' as she felt the nerve activate and muscle begin twitching, and her doctor later confirmed via ultrasound that the muscle was remarkably growing back.
When She Released Anger and Judgment, Her Body Began to Heal
Sakara, after years of hospital visits and misdiagnoses including hospitalization with botulism, was diagnosed with a pituitary tumor in 2019. She committed to 3 months of daily meditation, visualization, and walking 6 miles to school while floating in a tank listening to monks chanting, resulting in complete disappearance of the tumor. A year later, when masses were found throughout her uterus and chest, she isolated herself in rural Montana to address her deep-rooted anger and self-judgment through daily meditation and two remote coherence healings, achieving complete clearance within 9 months.
He Rebuilt His Body Through Meditation
Roben survived a 2019 motorcycle crash that left him in a coma for a week, requiring him to relearn how to walk, talk, and see. A year later, diagnosed with stage 3 bone cancer in his knee with subsequent lung metastasis and a 70% recurrence risk, he experienced severe depression, psychosis, and chronic phantom pain after surgery. Using only Dr. Joe's book 'Becoming Supernatural,' he practiced the chapter 3 meditation for hours daily, which eliminated his phantom pain, healed his depression and the negative voice in his head, and led to complete cancer remission that has lasted 3-4 years.
Face Blindness Had No Cure – Then He Tried Dr Joe’s Work
Luke was diagnosed with face blindness (prosopagnosia), a rare neurological condition that made it impossible for him to recognize people's faces, including his own mother, with no known clinical treatments or research offering hope. He committed to Dr. Joe Dispenza's meditations and mental rehearsal, visualizing the emotions of recognizing his mother at the airport, and attended a Week Long Advanced Retreat where he went all in with breath work and healing frequencies. During the second day of the retreat, he felt warmth and bliss in his heart center and immediately began recognizing people he had met earlier, making direct eye contact for the first time, and now reliably experiences mystical states while feeling more powerful and closer to God than ever before.
A Scientist Let Go of Fear – and Healed Neuropathy
Allyndaire, diagnosed at 24 years old with neuropathy, postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS), mast cell activation syndrome, and suffering a heart attack from repeated anaphylaxis and EpiPen use, attended the Cancun Week Long Retreat in April 2025 to receive three Coherence Healings. During the final healing, she surrendered her fear and unworthiness as a towering light being removed her heart, spine, nerves, and brain, pelting them with energy while her body burned with intense sensations similar to anaphylaxis. She experienced complete healing of her neuropathy and chronic pain, feeling the ground beneath her feet for the first time in three years, realizing that nothing separated her from healing except her thoughts about worthiness and possibility.
Love Transformed Her Personal Reality
Single mother with lifelong chronic Lyme, mast cell activation syndrome, and cystic fibrosis diagnosis became bedridden, eating only chicken and rice for 6 years, losing bowel control, with autistic daughter who screamed constantly and ate only rice. After progressive retreat, she committed to 5am daily meditation despite extreme fatigue, opened her heart rather than focusing on healing, and her food allergies, chronic fatigue, and neurological symptoms resolved. In a 3am mystical experience with an angel, she commanded her daughter to "heal" three times - within weeks her daughter passed all food challenges, autism symptoms disappeared, played with kids, joined sports, and her rectal prolapse healed without surgery. She now runs 100-mile ultramarathons as a sponsored athlete.

Hawaiian woman, barefoot yogi living in woods with no makeup or pageant experience, nominated by friends to run for Miss Hawaii. Decided to give it a shot. While training for pageant, simultaneously studying lectures for Advanced Week-Long Retreat. Applied Dr. Joe's practices to create pageant win: practiced "Tuning Into New Potentials," visualized herself winning and getting crowned with Miss Hawaii sash, felt it with heart-brain coherence, drew experience in with heart.

Now Miss Hawaii at age 38, unexpected journey.
She Changed Her Thoughts – and Walked Into a New Reality
A person woke up paralyzed overnight 10 months ago, unable to walk, move, or care for themselves, needing to be fed and washed, fully conscious but trapped in their body. Medical professionals told them recovery would take months to 1-2 years to get back on their feet. A nurse introduced them to Dr. Joe's work, and during their hospital stay they watched Dr. Joe's videos day in and day out, practicing visualization and meditation every day. They changed their thought patterns from "I'm dependent on other people, their help, their opinions" to deciding "it's my decision how this is going and how it's going to change," which helped them act differently and wake up every morning full of energy telling themselves "this is a new day, a new chance for a new step." They were imagining themselves walking again, visualizing how it feels to jump, walk, and eat on their own. One day they made the clear decision to leave the hospital on their own, and 4 months after diagnosis and paralysis, they walked out of the hospital independently, defying the medical prognosis of years of recovery.
She Reversed Years of Chronic Migraines – And Is Symptom Free
Diagnosed with chronic intractable migraine in 2012, living in severe daily pain (level 8+), often blind and confined to dark closet due to light sensitivity, leading to suicidal thoughts in December 2012. Started with Breaking the Habit book in February 2023, struggled initially but progressed to 5 hours daily meditation within 3-4 months, discovered pain relief during meditation especially with "Empowering the Power Within" practiced daily for 30 days, transforming from victim to feeling powerful.

She Changed Boxes – and Healed Her Skin
A woman who started Dr. Joe's work in 2019 had a very large mole near her ear that kept growing bigger, causing such worry and self-consciousness that she always wore her hair down to cover it, avoided facials, never told her husband (though he knew), and feared having to see a doctor. In August of the previous year, she began the 20-minute Changing Boxes meditation, understanding that as she got into the new box she was looking through different eyes. When a scab on her leg from a fall kept falling off, she thought her mole looked similar and perhaps it would fall off too. Over approximately 4 weeks, the mole gradually fell off just like a scab, completely disappearing and allowing her to finally wear her hair up with confidence.
He Refused to Accept Debilitation — and Healed His Pain and Parkinson’s
After surviving an "unsurvivable" 100% occluded widowmaker heart attack, Kevin was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease that had been causing unnoticed cognitive decline, memory loss, job termination, nightmares, tremors, and dopamine depletion (2.8 standard deviations below normal on left brain). Despite being told Parkinson's is incurable, he committed to three daily meditations, attended Denver event as a healee where chronic pain vanished and PTSD anger transformed to "flowers in his heart," and his Parkinson's symptoms completely disappeared. His energy centers went from 20% to 100%, he stopped all medications, and neurologist motor skill tests show both hands normal with only minor tremors remaining.
She Recovered from Myasthenia Gravis – and Discovered Her True Self
Woman grew up in state of survival with fear and lack of worthiness, became very competitive feeling needed to be really good at things to be okay, went to competitive engineering school always out socializing. Halfway into 20s diagnosed with endometriosis, asthma and allergies, carpal tunnel syndrome on both wrists, later myasthenia gravis (uncommon neurological condition) making it very difficult to live. Took more than 50 pills per day on extreme diet, tried conventional medicine and healing modalities, nothing worked until found Dr. Joe during pandemic. Meditated morning, lunch, evening with intensive progressive course, watched all testimonials and interviews, worked on emotions focusing on reducing fear (surge of energy from brain to belly happened hundreds of times daily thinking that's how body felt for everyone). First thing to heal was endometriosis which she focused on least, gradually reduced steroids and chemotherapy, became stronger with less pain. Later went through chain of traumatizing life events worse than wildest nightmares, diagnosed with deep depression and high PTSD score, immersed in work again doing breath work for hours every day (previously too weak to hold full breath from myasthenia gravis), attended few retreats, overcame intense suffering states in few months. Now feels in love with life, grateful just for living, feels like true deep self finally, healthiest and strongest ever in life, fully healed.
She Left Her Old Identity Behind – and Healed Her Hearing
At age 3, Maria had meningitis and lost hearing on the left side, becoming single-sided deaf when her auditory nerve died, along with balance problems. Her whole reality functioned around hearing only on one side—she was nearly put in special ed but refused because she never wanted to be different, learning to lip read and strategically always sitting on the right side, inventing reasons not to sit in the middle. She hid this disability her entire life, lying on applications saying she had no hidden disabilities, overachieving to prove she was "good enough." In open offices she couldn't tell where sound was coming from, would pick up phones saying "hello, hello" when no one was there, and when people spoke from her left side she would invent her own conversation with them while they had a completely different one. After attending Marco Island and hearing about others healing, a friend suggested she try to heal her ear, but she thought "I'm single-sided deaf, the nerve is dead, there's nothing you can do—punto, that's it." At the third event, after seeing someone cure cancer, something clicked—"if people are doing all these great things, why can't I recreate my nerve? I'm a mother, I gave birth, I have a lot of energy in this body." She decided she wanted to hear her daughter's voice from both sides and to experience stereo sound. For a year before her next event, she reconstructed her auditory nerve in meditation over and over, researching how hearing works. After her second coherence healing at the AFU in Marco Island, during the walking meditation she put on headphones and started feeling vibrations and sensations in her left ear for the first time in 40 years. In her final healing, her body turned into a garden, her heart became a lotus flower, a baby clove came out of her ear, and a being told her "now you have to water your garden." She continued reconstructing her nerve for one month, then went to the best ear doctor in Panama who tested her—5 out of 11 tones tested positive (before it was completely flat/zero for 40 years). The doctor was flabbergasted, saying the nerve is definitely not dead and active, though he claimed her brain had been "repurposed" for 40 years and wouldn't know how to hear. She said "I'm going to teach my brain myself," and now she can hear from both sides and finally understands what stereo is.
She Helped Her Father Heal – And Transformed Her Own Life
Her father was diagnosed with Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS), a very rare autoimmune disease affecting one in a million people in India, where the immune system attacks the myelin sheath around nerves, causing paralysis that starts in the feet and moves upward, potentially affecting the diaphragm and breathing. He spent 21 days in intensive care receiving IVIG treatment (intravenous immunoglobulin) and was discharged with only physiotherapy prescribed, with doctors saying it would take 24-36 months to regain full mobility. She set a new target with her father—that he would see her off at the airport when she left—and became his coach, having him journal daily about his current thoughts/feelings and his desired future thoughts/feelings (which made him break down every time). She explained the concepts of overcoming environment, body, and time from "Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself," watching him like a hawk and stopping him whenever he slipped into victim mode, redirecting him to his new story. Within 2-3 weeks he started seeing changes, and he recovered complete mobility of his entire body within 3 months, coming to see her at the airport as promised. This transformation changed her entire family's life and inspired her to become an NCS consultant—she attended the Train the Trainer event in Denver in July and is on the pathway to becoming a licensed NCS consultant in January.

She Believed in a Future Without Heart Arrhythmia – and Created It
Diagnosed with arrhythmia 4 years ago, kept pretty under control for 3 years then completely out of control last year, told had to have heart surgery or would have congestive heart disease, heart would race excess of 200 beats per minute, was nauseated, dizzy, couldn't grocery shop, very few physical activities without going into very irregular heart rate state. February 2023 had first ablation which didn't work, made her worse, unable to work, slept about 15 hours a day, did almost nothing, had to wait 3 months for another surgery to correct problem. Big risk with arrhythmia is stroke at any time plus congestive heart failure risk, while waiting 3 months lived in fear (mom had heart disease, thought she'd be on oxygen all time on same path), kept getting worse with heart rate not controlled even with all kinds of meds, taking 22 pills a day. Month after first surgery had to get cardioverted (paddles with electricity to bring back regular heart rate), hoping to last two more months for surgery but only lasted month, had cardioversion again which caused blood clot, felt like going down drain not sure would even live. Called friend who stuck with Dr. Joe's work (unlike her being in and out), friend had breast cancer, asked what to do, friend suggested couple meditations. Started doing them, one day in so much pain from blood clot did hour-long meditation 3 times, felt no pain during meditation but came back after, kept doing it. Third time had feeling of being healthy again, able to breathe, hike, take dogs for walk, grocery shop without heart popping out of chest or having stroke, held onto that feeling. Made it to 3-month mark for second surgery, that week they gotten very special machine that identified really what was wrong with her, super lucky, surgery was huge success, no longer on any meds, hiking, can do anything, incredibly grateful, got out of fear and belief would have heart disease and that was just her path.
He ‘Let it Happen’ – and Surrendered to Healing
A man was hit in the side of the head with a steel metal bar at work in April 2018, causing traumatic brain injury as his brain ricocheted off the other side creating most pain on his right side, leading to complications including ventilator breathing, seizures, walking difficulty, requiring full-time home care with his daughter taking care classes, becoming psychotic requiring 10 days in a hospital safe room, and being told he would never drive again. His Oklahoma neurologist said he wouldn't get proper care there and should move to California for UCLA medical treatment, so within 10 days they moved and he began seeing multiple doctors in rapid succession while his wife attended Santa Monica beach Saturday meditation group and brought him along just to get out of the house. He would sit in a beach wheelchair listening to his radio instead of meditating until one day deciding to listen to the meditations, then receiving a foundation grant trip to Cancun which became more important than the vacation itself as he learned new meditation and breathing techniques before being honored as a healee. During his third healing after deciding to completely open up and let whatever happens happen, he felt ants crawling up his legs, his butt went numb, felt three fingers pushing into the top of his head with something happening, and when the session ended he got up and pushed his wheelchair away without thinking, walking from then on. His family saw a light go on in his eyes saying their old dad was back, and at his first advanced course without needing to relearn breathing basics, he appreciates learning to breathe better and hopes for more healing, recommending others look into it even if they don't think it's their thing since it completely changed his life.
She Emerged From Coherence Healing™ Sessions Free of Cancer
A woman diagnosed with early stage triple negative breast cancer in February 2024 had a 1-inch tumor in her left breast with two lymph nodes removed, achieving clear margins and no micro spread, but after switching oncologists, sensitive blood tests detected trace amounts of cancer still circulating in her body that was too small for scans to detect, and the levels increased over two months leading to recommendations for chemotherapy. Starting in March before surgery, she began doing Walking Meditation 6 on repeat, walking as if she no longer had cancer and living as her future self, which led to her being selected as a healee at the Denver retreat. Within 24 hours of arriving at the retreat, a difficult fluid pocket (seroma) from surgery disappeared, and during the first coherence healing she felt sharp shooting sensations all over her left tricep where a nerve had been cut during surgery, completely regaining sensation in her previously numb tricep. Her radiation burn completely disappeared after experiencing intense shivering sensations specifically in her left breast during a heartwarming conversation, and after the third coherence healing which felt calm and peaceful with a blue healing sensation, she told her healers "I just feel like I'm healed." Her oncologist, who was supposed to conduct her chemotherapy intake for five months of treatment, stumbled over her words trying to say the blood test results went down to 0.0, and she declared "I left my cancer body back in Denver."
She Became ‘Inspired’ – and Healed Nerve Pain
In February, she woke up at midnight with intense pain on her right side, initially thinking it was a spasm, but when she couldn't get up and had to slither down the bed, realized it wasn't regular pain. Her radiologist said she was "five steps away from surgery" - MRI showed she had broken her L1 with the nerve impinged on C5 and C6, with nucleus acid from inside rubbing on the nerve root causing unbearable pain. The physiotherapist explained the severity but she insisted on no surgery, choosing not to take medication at all despite being unable to sit, recline, or lay on her back (only squat, walk briefly, and maybe rest her head on pillows for 30 minutes in extreme fatigue). After days of self-criticism and sabotaging thoughts about failure patterns, she shifted to longer meditations (previously just 15 minutes of Tuning In to New Potentials morning and evening), doing the full breath work for 10 minutes and Synchronizing Your Energy Centers meditation. During the breath on day 5, something literally picked her up from her bed 3 feet high and placed her on the floor on her back with no pain - she heard Dr. Joe saying "next breath, get up" and experienced profound energy movement like something wringing her arm like a wet cloth. The meditation would end and pain would return, but during the practice there was no pain, which was her signal that the Divine exists and showed itself to her, wiping away years of doubt. She's now healed, not wearing her neck brace, grateful that pushing her practice brought intense knowingness that when she calls, Spirit answers.
She Became Her Future Self – Free of Hearing Loss, Arthritis, and Migraines
Microbiologist diagnosed June 2022 with hearing loss, audiogram showed nerves in ear are weak, told irreversible with only solution being hearing aid which she tested and refused, kept deteriorating slowly, felt left out from social gatherings because couldn't catch what people saying, couldn't sit and watch TV with family, felt bit down. Same time started getting painful knees, doctor said early onset arthritis also irreversible, told inner kneecap is eroded and will keep progressing, only solution was knee replacement, got sad as not even 50 getting effects of old age, health went down mentally. Sister very deep in work (healed herself of depression) suggested reading "Breaking The Habit of Being Yourself," then got "Becoming Supernatural" and science really made sense (microbiologist so science is her language), all clicked. First meditation got very clear vision of who wanted to be (someone free, running in grass, totally free and laughing), vision stuck with her. Attended week-long Nashville, learned techniques, formed habit of getting up early automatically to do work because chose herself, slowly started seeing improvement. Using Changing Boxes meditation realized could avert migraine by connecting to void and imagining herself free of migraine, worked couple times like migraine pill without taking pill. Don't know when exactly hearing came back, was slow gradual increase, but this year husband surprised she could hear bathroom door open (thought she couldn't hear), visited sister after year and half, sister said "oh wow I don't need to scream at you anymore you can hear me well." Started hiking again this year (had to stop habit because knees so painful), got life back with zest and passion, feels has tools to fight anything that might come. This year started getting premenopausal symptoms (hot flashes, bit of anxiety) but had the tools, symptoms barely stayed a month and back to normal, had tools to avert any problems that might come.
She Released Fear – and Healed an Inoperable Aneurysm
Woman woke up on birthday (April 2021) spinning in dream and in reality (vertigo), couldn't move arms or speak properly, thought having stroke. ER gave oxygen, fluids, CT scan - doctor said no stroke but found 8mm aneurysm on left carotid artery (she had no idea what aneurysm was). Considered very large, no neurologist appointment for couple weeks, so already knowing Dr. Joe's work, dove into it - meditating 4-6 hours daily because terrified. Morning of neurologist appointment, during meditation had most profound mystical experience - personality turned off, disappeared, felt like pure beingness looking through eyes as universe, creation unfolding everywhere she looked, complete elation, no more fear of death. Neurologist said inoperable, don't worry, live your life, if bursts will try to operate. Kept daily meditation, second neurologist completely freaked out saying emergency, could burst any moment - once again terrified. After couple weeks of 4-6 hours daily meditation, had vision of woman (shared past lifetime, had been in slavery) smiling because she was free, fear in her body turned into hundreds of black birds flying away. Continued daily meditation for hours, in December 2021 during Tuning Into New Potentials meditation, dropped into quantum field floating free, then had vision of arm/hand made of blue light reaching into her head pulling out aneurysm - she knew it was gone. February 2022 CT scan showed no sign of aneurysm, artery back to normal size. Neurologist shocked, said must not have had one, but she knew she'd been healed after completely changing emotionally, mentally, spiritually.
He Overcame Doubt and Healed Bell’s Palsy
Huge skeptic of Joe Dispenza had Bell's palsy 3 times in early 20s (1% of 1% lottery), on left side and right side twice with permanent nerve damage in right corner of mouth, eyes wouldn't blink at same rate, treated like leper when can't move half face with food dripping, can't speak properly, looks like stroke, very fearful going into meditations thinking might happen in brain again. Son Max had double hip surgery, father agreed to come to event for Max's emotional recovery from surgery, tweaked back picking up bag of mulch at Costco, Max said good time to start the work. First 5 minutes of meditation felt really warm feeling on face that freaked him out, felt energy released from face, 20 minutes later started feeling smiling equally (hasn't smiled in photograph since early 20s). About week later doing meditation felt pain in back of shoulder going up through neck, back through face, up through sinuses, very painful like getting electrocuted but trusted and kept going, got here and released, immediately able to start blinking at same rate. Week later mother visiting (hadn't seen for more than 5 minutes, upset she couldn't fix son's physical issue) immediately looked at him saying "you're blinking the same, you're smiling, what happened." At 13 was pitcher, tore rotator cuff, right arm was 3 inches shorter so every suit tailor would say arms aren't same length. In meditation moving shoulder did slight pull on arm would never do consciously, felt something go around shoulder and release. Next morning talking to Max about weird things happening, Max said "put out your arms," right arm was half inch longer. For someone who was massive skeptic turned off by walking out of wheelchairs stories, this was really small thing but had obviously been holding it whole life, says be skeptical and you'll be surprised.
She Healed Autoimmune Disease by Learning to Change
Woman with multiple autoimmune diseases including multiple sclerosis (spent 3 years in a wheelchair, blinding left eye), rheumatoid arthritis, bone marrow cancer twice, and myasthenia gravis with double vision. She spent 3-4 hours daily watching Dr. Joe's content (rewired over 20 times) and meditating, initially triggered by an angry email about myasthenia gravis. Her breakthrough came when she realized healing wasn't enough - she needed to change who she was as a person, because the same disregulated genes causing MS also caused her other autoimmune conditions. In one meditation, she woke up realizing it was about changing, not healing, and from that moment everything shifted - she became more mobile, lost 155 pounds in 8 months, moved from Oklahoma to Los Angeles, and manifested attending Cancun retreat as a Give to Give Foundation recipient (her husband also has traumatic brain injury).
She Healed Pre-Cancerous Cells in Her Cervix With Divine Love
Woman received diagnosis at Cancun retreat of abnormal cervical cells positive for high-grade cervical cancer, confirmed as CIN 3 lesion (highest grade before cancer), requiring a LEEP procedure that would scoop and cauterize part of her cervix, threatening future fertility. She delayed the procedure for months to do the work using breath work, meditations, and all Dr. Joe's tools, and received a remote coherence healing where she felt feverish and something physically came out of her body that night. She surrendered to divine love instead of fear, prayed for the doctor to be unavailable if she wasn't meant to have the procedure, and the nurse called during her drive to the appointment saying the doctor was in surgery; the follow-up biopsy one week later showed complete clearance with the doctor finding nothing on examination or microscopic analysis.
She Fell in Love With Life – and Her Liver Tumors Shrank
Commercial pilot experiencing pain under her breast was diagnosed with 25 liver lesions (10 in left lobe, 15 in right) showing malignant traits. After surgery at Churchill Hospital in Oxford where they found her liver "looked like a leopard," she lived eight years on a "knife edge" in fear and worry. She discovered Dr. Joe's meditations and practiced for eight months without missing a day - even waking at 1:45 AM before early flights to meditate for 45 minutes. She learned awareness, catching herself reacting instead of responding, asking "how would love respond?" After eight months of feeling so good she didn't care about the diagnosis, her tumors became so small they were mostly undetectable, and she was given a five-year clearance. Dr. Joe emphasized she no longer identified with the condition and felt so elevated she couldn't care less if she had it.

Diagnosis was internal decapitation, head literally came off spine, C1 vertebrae shattered, C2 and C3 broke. Surgery eight and a half hours, titanium rods and plate screwed to back of head. Doctor said vertebral artery blocked and closed but if piece breaks off will have stroke and die. Walked next day post-surgery, five days later got off all prescription pain meds using Dr. Joe's meditation, four month checkup showed artery still open.
Living With an ‘Expanded Heart’ – and Free From Migraine Pain
At age 30, this person was suddenly struck with a rare form of daily chronic migraine affecting only 1% of the population, causing such severe 24/7 pain for 5 years that she couldn't work, maintain social life, care for her child, or leave home, leading to deep depression with suicidal thoughts, anxiety, and panic attacks despite trying all conventional medical treatments including surgery to cut 8 nerves in her head. After discovering Dr. Joe's work through the book "You Are the Placebo" and attending the Cancun retreat during COVID, she committed to meditating 2 hours every morning at 6 a.m. regardless of how she felt, spending the entire year catching herself returning to old emotional patterns and realizing her addiction to past trauma and childhood emotions. After one year her environment completely changed and she could enjoy life again, and the severe migraine pain completely disappeared, with no pain for 2 years now, living with an expanded heart and maintaining mystical states with eyes open in daily life.
She Stopped Looking Outside for Answers – and Healed Autoimmune Disease
Since age 12 experienced autoimmune disease where body did not recognize connection cells and was eating them inside, especially joints, tremendous pain during growth, pregnancy with three kids. In 2013, oldest daughter, grandma, mom, and father all passed away within four months, woke up with half of upper body not working and unable to walk. Doctors said it was trauma disconnection between mind and body, needed physical therapy and psychologist. In 2018 attended first Progressive event in wheelchair, realized she relied on everything outside and needed to look within. In 2020 had five surgeries on both shoulders, right hip, and sacrum, committed to daily practice reading, listening, and meditating every morning for two years. September 2023, all 14 DNA tests for autoimmune disease came back negative after being positive since age 12, no longer on hormones, shots, or chemotherapy.
She Let the Old Stories Go – and Healed Her Back
A woman had a horseback riding accident in January 2020 that fractured her L1 vertebra, and unlike normal falls, she couldn't get back up. Despite doctors recommending she go home and warning she would go numb (which happened 2 days later on one side), she chose to refuse opioids and use meditation to regulate pain daily, viewing it as a mental game of overcoming herself. Fortunately, she had learned about Dr. Joe's work a year before, as if the universe was preparing her. During months lying in bed unable to sit, stand, or recline (only able to squat and walk briefly), she worked through her critical inner voice, refused family visits to avoid buying into victim stories, focused on counting blessings and what she was still capable of doing rather than what she couldn't do, and surrendered completely. Three years later, she has healed with better emotional control, her business is thriving, and abundance manifested as a side effect (not her focus) - doctors who see her MRIs showing the broken bone compared to her current mobility are speechless and don't know what to say.
She Kept Her Date With Healing – and Is Pain-Free
A person woke up one morning and fell to their knees unable to stand from a pinched nerve in their back, with doctors recommending spinal fusion surgery, but they refused saying "I'm going to this conference and I'm going to heal," spending a month in tremendous pain learning to use a walker for the first time, driving themselves to the Nashville conference and renting a scooter to get around the hotel. By Wednesday they couldn't get up off the floor after lay-downs requiring multiple people to help them onto their scooter, texted at 5am in horrendous pain requesting a doctor, spent 6 hours in the emergency room in screaming pain with shots only making them loopy without relieving pain, kept telling their friend "my first coherence healing is tomorrow, I have got to be there." After the first Friday night coherence healing half the pain was gone, and after the second Saturday night coherence healing all pain was completely gone, though doubt remained that it would return. On Sunday's final healing they woke up needing the bathroom so badly they ran (never running ever) with pain totally gone and not returning, telling the doctor who still recommended fusion surgery "nope, I'm done, I know what works now," committing in January to meditate every single day with their whole life and physical being transformed.
She Learned to Let Go – And Her Thyroid Healed
A woman who had been diagnosed with inappropriate sinus tachycardia at age 17, trigeminal neuralgia on the right side of her face for 2 years (causing severe nerve pain in her ear, eye, and mouth), and clinical hypothyroidism with a thyroid mass discovered 6 weeks before the event. This was her first advanced event, having only completed the progressive intensive online beforehand, and during her second meditation she experienced intense sobbing for over an hour on the floor—not happy or sad, just a deep release from her depths. After the meditation, she noticed her hair touching her face no longer caused stinging pain, and that night she discovered her goiter (enlarged thyroid) had visibly disappeared in the mirror. Throughout the week, her heart became coherent with no tachycardia or skipped beats, and her trigeminal neuralgia transformed from pain into a sensation she could completely separate from and not care about.
He Focused on Wholeness – and Healed Erectile Dysfunction
Male somatic bodyworker underwent rectal cancer surgery 3 months prior and developed very severe erectile dysfunction from nerve damage that doctors said might return in 1-5 years or maybe never, with nothing working including energy work, healers, naturopathic treatments, PRP shots, ozone shots, Cialis, and Viagra. Signed up for a retreat to manage cancer recurrence fears, not expecting healing of sexual function, but within two days experienced huge energetic heart openings. On night two, tears came gushing out with his heart crying and releasing grief and pain, and that night after meditation everything worked perfectly; the pain in his perineum from years of issues also completely resolved, and he called his wife crying to report his body was working 100% perfectly with no pain, constrictions, or limitations.
She Overcame Fear – and Healed Stage IV Lung Cancer
Diagnosed with advanced lung cancer as a non-smoker with three young children, doctors gave her one month to live with cancer throughout her brain, lymph nodes, lungs, spine, hip, liver and spleen. Though targeted treatments worked, cancer kept returning for seven years, and the side effects from medications were devastating. After watching "Evidences" and seeing women change breast cancer cells in a lab, her belief solidified that she could actually be healthy again. She did blessing of the energy centers daily and attended San Diego week-long as a healee. During the walking meditation "Heart Full of Mind and Mind Full of Heart," she connected with her past self standing in the hospital window after her stroke, realizing that her belief nine years ago that she'd be okay was actually her present healed self reaching back in time to reassure her past self. She continued strengthening that belief until her brain MRI came back so clear the radiologist said it didn't even look like her scans - too good for her history. Her precancerous skin lesions also resolved, transforming from fearful cancer patient to loving healthy person.
To Heal Her Spine, She Changed Herself
Woman suffered debilitating spinal trauma from stair fall and car accident affecting T12 to S1 region, with bulging discs that Western medicine couldn't effectively treat. After exhausting all modalities including acupuncture, energy work, and herbs, she lost her home and job. Became remote healer for 2020 Cancun event which gave her inner guidance that she could heal. Experienced very gradual neurological recovery over years of daily practice, eventually running on beach and inspiring her physiatrist who wanted to read Dr. Joe's books.
She Transformed Trauma – and Healed Tinnitus – With the Breath
Woman with three traumatic brain injuries, more than five concussions, spinal injuries, chronic migraines (bedridden in dark room for a month at a time), clinical PTSD, vestibular dizziness causing blackouts and falls, and an inoperable brain aneurysm. She was "a zombie" on multiple prescribed medications, believing in doctors and pharmacies as a "normal secular person" who had never meditated. After doing Progressive and Intensive at home, she attended a retreat wearing back brace, sunglasses, earplugs, hunched over. After three days she declared "I am not my body," removed all supports, stood by the biggest speaker and "started dancing like a maniac." Years of severe tinnitus (like a train through her head) disappeared during breath work when she "became the breath" and heard a pop or click. Seven years later at age 69, she takes no medicine, is pain-free, stronger and healthier than since being a teenager.
Opening Her Heart to Receive Healing
A woman had chronic Lyme disease and Mast Cell Activation Syndrome since childhood, undiagnosed until age 30 when giving birth to her daughter who was also sick. After trying everything including stem cell therapies injected into her brain and spending years bedridden (her daughter age 3), she was diagnosed at age 35 with cystic fibrosis and told she shouldn't be alive at that stage, eating only chicken and rice for two to three years and collapsing with breathing difficulties. In March 2022, she read You Are the Placebo, attended Denver Progressive in May 2022 (walking/standing the entire time despite expectations she couldn't), and started 5 AM daily meditation and jogging three days after the retreat, with doctors mind-blown. At Niagara Falls September 2022 week-long with her daughter and three coherence healings, she focused on opening her heart rather than imagining outcomes. In December 2022 during a 3 AM Center of the Magnet meditation, she experienced sleep paralysis with snoring while brain-awake, saw an angel and her daughter in the quantum field with broken blood vessels as "angel kisses," said "heal" three times, and her daughter (previously needing feeding tube, eating only rice) began eating all foods, gained weight, became social, loves kids, and now does sleepovers and karate. The woman herself can now eat all foods including gluten, dairy, and avocados, has no metastatic lymph nodes, and attributes her success to opening her heart rather than envisioning specific outcomes.
He ‘Opened Up Fully’ – and His Hearing Returned
Diagnosed with heavy nerve damage to his left ear at age 10, attributed to genetics, he adapted to deafness through hearing aids and special classroom accommodations for five years. His mother introduced him to Dr. Joe's work after her own transformation at Niagara Falls 2021, and though skeptical at first, he tried meditation and felt immediate clarity. At his first week-long retreat as a 15-year-old, he was randomly selected as a healee for the coherence healing. During the session, hearing another man cry with raw emotion - something he had never witnessed before - caused him to completely open his heart space and let go. In that moment of elevated emotion and surrender, he turned his hearing ear to the pillow and could hear clearly out of his deaf left ear for the first time, restoring hearing that doctors said was impossible to regain.
She Embraced Meditation – and Let Go of Sciatic Pain
Three months before the retreat (January), a nurse giving her an anti-inflammatory intramuscular shot accidentally hit her sciatic nerve, causing severe damage with intense nerve pain, leg weakness that would make her fall over, and difficulty walking that required her to bring a cane to the airport and through the hotel. She had tried medications, heating pads, and massage with no real relief, couldn't lay on her back due to pain (only on her side), and was afraid she would fall over but hoped the retreat might help without forcing expectations. On the first full day (Wednesday) during meditation while laying on her side after being told to "let go," she felt a strange pulsing sensation isolated to just a small section of the sciatic nerve - like a muscle spasm but only in the nerve itself - pulsing out of her leg for a few minutes before fading. When the meditation ended and she got up, she had no pain whatsoever and nearly forgot her cane in the room that day, walking normally since then with no pain or leg weakness as if the injury never happened, appreciating how Dr. Joe's work is easier to understand because of the science and tangible evidence that makes it like a literal how-to book.
She Left Trauma – and Chronic Pain – in Her Past
Suffering from chronic nerve and pelvic pain since 2008 with multiple surgeries, unsuccessful medications, and no definitive diagnosis, this 49-year-old Pakistani woman discovered through daily meditation that her physical pain wasn't illness but decades of unprocessed childhood trauma she'd been carrying. After nearly 25 years of being too afraid to return to Pakistan due to painful memories, her meditation practice gave her courage to travel home last month where standing at her mother's grave (lost in 2000), she forgave herself and her mother, finally feeling the love she'd been missing her whole life while walking around numb and angry. The physical relief during meditation was extraordinary, but the real transformation was becoming whole, opening her heart, feeling compassion, and restoring her relationship with her father.
He Stepped Into the Unknown – and Found His Voice
Lost his voice for four years to spasmodic dysphonia, a neurological disorder causing choppy, breaking-up speech that made simple activities like ordering room service impossible - hotels hung up four times thinking it was a bad connection. Medical treatment was Botox injections through the neck every other month, which he refused. These daily incidents compounded, putting him in a small corner trying to figure out how to deal with life. His son planted the seed to attend after going to a show. During two coherence healings, before healers entered the room he felt an orb rotating in his throat area and heard Dr. Joe's words to "get out of the way" so he stepped into the unknown. When healers walked in, the energy was pure jubilation and a symbiotic flow - as he felt their emotion it drew on his emotion. His breathing changed rapidly, energy moved through him, his body moved involuntarily back and forth, and when healers sat with open hands he could feel their involvement and hear them quietly weeping. He felt rotation through his body, his torso came up off the ground, his throat opened, making weird sounds, and after four years got his voice completely back. This was his first time speaking in front of a group this large, demonstrating full restoration of vocal function.
A Doctor Finds Healing – and Release
Doctor (healthcare professional working with Amazon tribes) had traumatic brain injury at age 18 from skateboarding accident - fell at 40 mph, cracked skull, bled in brain in six places. Lost smell, taste, short-term memory, and ability to cry. Therapist said it's normal after such trauma to never cry again. Went to Cancun retreat without clear intention. During second walking meditation on beach at sunrise with 1500 people, experienced traveling to different time-space, saw older version of his father, felt overwhelming love that made him cry for first time in years. Heart exploded open. Played Interstellar theme song, danced crying in ocean alone. Describes it as moving from power center (third center) to heart center (fourth center). Everything in his life and medical practice expanded 10x after heart opened. His father (also a doctor) attended later retreat to have his own experience.
Stories of Transformation - Daniela
Woman went blind at age 8 from encephalitis which caused severe optic nerve scarring and damage, with hundreds of doctors over the years telling her "too bad, nothing can be done." For her entire life she had no depth perception, very small field of vision, and no peripheral vision in her right eye, unable to see on the side at all, only seeing shadows and colors (described as seeing the world "flat"). During a walking meditation at an event, halfway through she decided to "just walk with purpose and walk like a person that can see," got so wrapped up in the action that she forgot about herself and couldn't remember the rest until reaching the end, and when walking back she could see the trees "not flat," see her hand clearly, and had depth perception for the first time. Dr. Joe explained she "walked right into her future self," unified with the unified field, overcame her limited self to join her greater self, "lost herself in nothing" and became somebody else, receiving a biological upgrade simply by making up her mind and getting so involved in the act that she forgot about space and time.
‘Hardwired’ for Healing
For 12 years of adult life, this person suffered from chronic anxiety and panic attacks that became so debilitating they couldn't drive, especially over the 6-mile bridge to get home from work, requiring constant availability from their husband and sister for support as they thought they were having heart issues or strokes, diagnosed with hypothyroidism which brought additional mental challenges and weight gain worsening over the years with hormonal changes, pregnancy, and postpartum depression. The anxiety was so severe they couldn't be present with their daughter and missed the first 3 years of her life, wanting desperately to be a good mom and wife with joy but unable to find it despite seeing multiple medical professionals and counselors, with antidepressants making things worse and causing suicidal thoughts. After discovering Dr. Joe on a podcast where everything he said resonated deeply, they read Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself which taught them they had chemically wired their body to have panic attacks before they even happened, creating adrenaline rushes and lack of control, and through doing the meditations exactly as instructed day after day, they came out a completely different human being with joy for life, describing it as 12 years with horse blinders on that suddenly came off revealing a panoramic view, getting their daughters and husband back as life started beautifully happening for them.
New Body. New Life. New Future.
Diagnosed with carpal tunnel in both hands 10 years ago along with osteoarthritis, her symptoms were so severe she couldn't use her hands, particularly her right hand, and the pain would radiate all the way up to her neck, affecting C6 and C7 with nerve compression that would numb her arm, requiring emergency room visits for injections. The condition limited everything she did daily from self-care to cooking to work, forcing her to leave her job and dedicate time to self-healing. Last year it got so bad she gave in to taking a corticosteroid injection. When she came to the week-long event and received a coherence healing, she felt the energy intensifying and suddenly her arms started moving involuntarily, her stomach felt like something was bouncing around inside, and she experienced sharp pain coming from her neck going down her forearm to her thumb—the pain actually seemed to increase during the healing. The healers told her to wait until tomorrow to try her hand, but later that day she decided to try and was able to put her hand at a 90-degree angle, something she hadn't done for 6-7 years. She started doing yoga poses she couldn't do before because she could never spread her hand (always had to keep it closed), and everyone cried together. She now has a new body, new life, and new future—not the same person who came to the event, having received her upgrade.
A Familiar, Unfamiliar Feeling
A surgeon who doesn't believe surgery always fixes everything (especially pain) developed severe bilateral carpal tunnel syndrome in both hands during 2020 lockdown from repetitive surgical hand movements, with EMG nerve conduction study in February 2021 confirming clinical carpal tunnel that risked irreversible hand damage affecting her ability to perform surgery and even brush her hair. After trying ice, acupuncture, weekly massage, Gua Sha, and minimal anti-inflammatories for months with no improvement, she had left hand surgery but experienced 3-4 months of continued pain plus new surgical pain with persistent symptoms, so she postponed the right hand surgery and was disappointed. In September 2021 she discovered Dr. Joe's work, did the progressive online workshop, and as a "go all-in" type-A personality (who ran 4 marathons in a year) attended Cancun 2021 week-long retreat with intention to "feel more whole." Almost leaving Sunday early, her healing occurred during the very last Body Electric meditation on the final day where despite being "mortified" and "horrified" at flopping around "like a fish out of water" on the beach, energy moved through her body filling her with unfamiliar love, and she felt hot metal plates on both wrists that then "disappeared" completely. A follow-up EMG nerve study in February 2022 (1 year later, same doctor) showed completely normal results for both hands, with her orthopedic surgeon confirming the normalization despite her still operating full-time as a surgeon.
In Her New Future … Blessing Her Past
Woman with myalgic encephalomyelitis (mitochondrial disease) became bedridden for 5 years, which worsened after severe car accident causing level 5 brain damage, jaw fracture, herniated discs, torn shoulder, severe fibromyalgia - requiring her to relearn words and her own name. After discovering Dr. Joe's work on YouTube, she meditated 4-5 hours daily while bedridden, starting with morning meditation, first noticing her nervous system calming and exiting survival mode, then gradually regaining ability to feed herself and sit up. At Cancun 2021 advanced week-long retreat, she left her wheelchair behind after using it for years, donated it to charity, and now runs 6 miles daily, does Zumba, hip-hop dance, and swimming, with doctors dismissing meditation as cause despite no known medical cure existing.
Evolving His Experience
Chiropractor, former city councilman and mayor, retired seven years ago, became complacent. On February 4th underwent angiogram for rare spinal cord AVM after 8 months symptomatic, went home, 45 minutes later completely paralyzed from belly button down. Two days later had double laminectomy to diffuse fistula on T11-T12 thoracic spinal cord, neurosurgeon gave 50/50 chance to walk within first year. At nine-month retreat, first meditations difficult, third meditation fought through severe back pain and burning in both flanks. Later meditation experienced popping, dove off ledge, rode eagle through mist into quantum field, ball of energy exploded in abdomen, broke into complete perspiration. Walking meditation saw angelic being saying "keep going, almost there." Pain completely eliminated (was level 8, requiring two painkillers three times daily plus oxycodone), gained ability to move quad muscle.
Practice, Persistence, and Patience
Matthew had C5 spinal cord injury requiring three supports to walk, severe neck bone-on-bone with no range of motion, and shut-down hip flexors. During coherence healing his body went catatonic then lifted completely off the floor repeatedly for 2 hours as energy found a way through frozen patterns. Immediately after he walked confidently without wobbling, his neck had full range restored, and he progressively regained function including bicycle leg movements in bed.
Letting Love Back In
Few years ago quit drinking and smoking to better life, lifted something heavy and hurt lower back causing nerve damage. Doctor said sprain, did physical therapy but pain kept magnifying. Woke up one day and couldn't feel leg, needed walker to get sensation back. Spent seven months hopping and dragging body around, doctors told him to learn to live like that. Doctor performed surgery doing much more work than expected, woke up to two spinal fusions, missing bones in spine, missing whole sections of muscle, metal and screws. Developed fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, chronic pain, inflammation, candida, headaches, slept 12 hours nightly waking exhausted. September started Dr. Joe's work seriously, woke up with bad fever and intense vibration, turned out to be advanced myalgic encephalomyelitis. Did Blessing of the Energy Centers first time, felt fireworks in brain. Meditated five hours daily in front of laptop then at shared office space with Wi-Fi and radiation until hypersensitivity completely went away.
Stories of Transformation - Laura
Laura, who suffered severe hearing loss and tinnitus from a traumatic brain injury three years prior, attended the Marco Island Week Long Advanced Retreat in January 2022 seeking mystical experiences. During a walking meditation in the rain, while lying in the sand, she had a powerful mystical encounter where she perceived a woman in a black cape sitting beside her with her eyes closed, experienced full body shaking, and witnessed a vision of Mother Teresa in blue and white habit holding her hand. After the meditation ended, she realized her hearing aids were not in and her hearing had been completely restored through this transcendental experience.
