Rising as Someone New

Summary

Young woman (25) developed progressive skin disease starting as rash above heart, spreading from neck to ankles. Doctors had no name, no known cause, no cure. Dermatologist said scars would never go away, take steroids, ignore it. She felt relieved because now she could put intention to the work. Studied Progressive Intensive workshops, fell in love with the material, meditated daily until feeling like new person. Signed up for June 2021 Cancun retreat, couldn't find passport night before flight, meditated feeling happy about outcome, passport appeared. During "Moving Into New Potentials" meditation, imagined baby skin. Skin looked worst that evening - peeling everywhere. Next morning after walking meditation and shower, skin was completely clear, soft, rejuvenated. Key practice: changing beliefs about who she was, not being victim of circumstances.
