Anxiety, Depression, and Disordered Eating No Longer Define Her

Description

“I feel like a completely different person.” At 19 years old, Haley’s new modeling career left her feeling broken – struggling with anxiety, depression, and a severe eating disorder that caused her to lose her menstrual cycle. Deep inside, she wanted to heal but didn’t have the tools to change. After several years, Haley finally admitted she had to act on her desire to create a different life. Once she began reading Dr Joe’s book, Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself, she felt like she had a path forward. For months, she struggled to meditate more than ten minutes at a time, but knew healing was waiting for her, so she kept going. The next step in her journey was to attend one of Dr Joe’s retreats. She arrived at her first Week Long Advanced Retreat physically sick and emotionally fragile. But just several days into the retreat, she woke up in the middle of the night with an undeniable knowing: she was healed. The day after the retreat ended, her menstrual cycle had reappeared – the first time in five years. Months later, she’s now free from anxiety, her health is restored, and she’s creating a new future for herself. “I’m in the unknown,” she says, “and I love it.” Recorded at the 10-Day Advanced Retreat in Cancún, December 2024
