A Doctor Finds Healing – and Release

Summary

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.
