2019 i had a hell of a surprise because i had a stroke so i was otherwise really
healthy i had exercised for years eating right for years done all the right things
but the first stroke i said first stroke didn't get my attention so i went right back to the
same behaviors the same lifestyles the second stroke was eight weeks later and that created
some suffering and it created suffering from october to the following july when i found dr joe
so from october to about probably april or may i woke up every day wanting to end my life i told
my wife every morning this is no way to live i'd rather be dead and she's well wouldn't you want to
be alive for the kids and i'm i said this is no way for the father to be i felt tired every day
i had to take a nap by 10 30 in the morning i was worried about my income i sell health
insurance over the phone my speech was impacted my right side was impacted i was miserable so
about probably in june my wife suggested dr joe and she didn't know his work
she just knew he was amongst the many people on youtube with self-improvement people that
was positive and she said well why don't you try this guy's meditations so i tried the first one
and i didn't know what he was doing with the the voice effects and his voice and i didn't
like it i said what are you trying to be the messiah what is this about and i rejected it
fast forward to july and i was still miserable and i was on my lanai reading a book a novel
and something came over me and i downloaded uh becoming supernatural on my kindle
and i read the first chapter that night and sometimes when you read a book you read the
first chapter and you know the rest of the book is true well that's what happened with that book so i
read the first chapter and the next morning i woke up and i started meditating with him
and i've probably missed five days since july well i also bought the progressive and intensive
workshops and when i started to read the book i started to listen to those my wife and my kids
were away on vacation for two weeks so i listened to the progressive intensive workshops probably
five times in two weeks i did nothing but work and listen to dr joe and meditate the results have
been phenomenal within about two weeks i just felt more alive like i went from waking up with dread
for my condition and how i felt and my life to waking up excited every morning i went from
lingering in bed to you know 8 8 30 to getting up at 5 00 every morning without an alarm i just woke
up ready to go out and meditate and it didn't take any discipline to do it and today's meditation
we were talking about mystical experiences and i realized my life has been my mystical experience
um my speech came back 99 uh my right side difficulties wasn't paralyzed but my right
arm was weak my right leg was weak that all went away but most of all my energy
and will to live and my joy for life came back my family has prospered financially we've
prospered with the unity in our family my wife is now doing dr joe's meditations every morning my
21 year old son is meditating with dr joe and the effects in our family have been tangible
the wisdom we've required from dr joe my wife has shared with her father and brother having problems
it healed that i've shared it with my father up in massachusetts it's been an amazing adjunct to his
practice it just created unity in our family and i questioned whether spending the three
thousand dollars to come here was actually worth it because i had such great results
anyways but obviously it was earth shattering sealed the deal well it was sealed before
you know before i came but it was just takes another level
