The Healing Mindset: Leeroy’s Discovery of Mind-Body Connection to Heal Chronic Back Pain

Leeroy, a skilled carpenter and joiner, has navigated a transformative journey of healing following a severe back injury sustained during his apprenticeship. At 21 years old, while lifting a heavy steel beam with another worker, Leeroy felt a soreness in his lower back that would alter the course of his life.

“Two of us were picking it up, and as we picked this beam up, I put it onto my right shoulder. The guy in front of me had it on his Left shoulder and said, “You need to put it on the other shoulder so we can carry it together.” I tried to lift it above my head, but it was so heavy that I couldn’t get it over my head to put it on the other side. I ducked down to try and get it over, and that put pressure on one of the discs in my spine with a lot of weight. We continued, walked up a long ramp, and put it down. Afterwards, I felt very uncomfortable in the back. I felt like I’d injured myself. I wasn’t sure how bad. As the day went on, I decided I was sore and went home a little early. The next day, I felt a lot of pain in my lower back, and I couldn’t move freely. I ended up having about three months off work, went to get CT scans and see physios, and did all sorts of things. It didn’t look very obvious on the scans, but it showed a bulging disc at L5 S1, the lowest disc.”

Despite undergoing physiotherapy and other treatments, Leeroy struggled with ongoing discomfort, compounded by scepticism from his employer. “It was genuine, but my employer at the time may not have believed it. It was a very stressful time for a young guy not to be able to work and not to be believed that I was injured. Over the years, the disc had further degraded and felt very painful at times.”

The turning point came years later when Lee was running his own business, jackhammering tiles off the floor. “Once again, I could barely walk. It had become something I had to deal with because I couldn’t get by anymore.”

Turning to alternative therapies, Leeroy explored Pilates and adjusted his diet to combat inflammation, which he realised was a significant contributor to his discomfort. “I was looking for any answers I could get,” Leeroy shares. “One day, I discovered Wim Hof, which made sense to me. He taught me about breathing and how I was reacting with my body when I was overly stressed about things. That led me down the path of meditation. It made me aware of what I was thinking and when I was thinking it.”

Embracing this holistic approach, Leeroy continued to search for self-healing and discovered the teachings of Dr Joe Dispenza, who emphasises the mind-body connection in healing. “Learning about Joe Dispenza and finding out what’s going on with my body and mind and how it all works was probably the turning point in me finding my way to be healed.” Leeroy acknowledges. “In ‘You Are the Placebo’, Joe talks about making a mind movie, so that’s what I did. I put a lot of time into it, and I put positive affirmations and everything that I wanted to be and wanted to become into that video. I got a guy to photoshop an image of my damaged spine; he fixed it right in front of my eyes. That was the first moment I went, “Okay, I can be fixed”. That was a game-changer, and I put that picture into the mind movie. So, every day, I looked at my Healed spine. I watched that mind movie every morning, every night and during the day.”

Then, one day, perhaps after 20 years of being in pain with his back injury, Leeroy had a breakthrough moment while vacuuming dust off the floor at work. “I walked backwards into a sharp metal corner. As I walked into it, it hit my spine, L5 S1, like right where the injury was. I nearly fell to the floor. It hit me right in the spot of all my pain, right into the injury.” Leeroy recalls. “As it happened, my first thought was it’s okay, it doesn’t hurt, I’m fine. It’s the same thing I’ve been practising for weeks. I just stood there, didn’t do anything, just focused on being okay. After about 30 to 40 seconds, I started moving, picked up the vacuum again, and continued doing what I was doing. I felt pretty good, a little bit numb, but felt pretty good, like no pain. I was a bit shocked.”

From that exact moment onward, Leeroy experienced a dramatic improvement in his condition. “It was life-changing, after over 20 years of really bad back pain on and off and all the grief I’d gone through, and all of a sudden, I felt pretty good,” he marvels. Leeroy insists that only those who understand the work of Dr Joe Dispenza would not write the whole thing off as a coincidence.

Today, managing a workshop and pursuing activities like rock climbing and callisthenics, Leeroy shares his advice for others facing similar challenges. “I think it’s very important to be aware of your mind and thoughts about your injury or issue. The mind is so powerful and can make such a difference to your recovery. So if you’re always told that you can’t recover or that it’s too hard to recover if you believe that and you feel that yourself, it’s most likely that you never will recover. “ he urges. “People recover from some really bad situations, and the only way I think you can do it is to believe that you can do it and feel like you can. You need to be positive, go against all odds, and don’t believe all the naysayers. You really need to believe you can be healed.”

Leeroy’s journey reminds us of the powerful truth of mind-body connection. “It’s very hard for your body to heal. So, learn about yourself, learn what you can do to make a difference, and arm yourself with as much knowledge as you can.”

As Leeroy continues to embrace life without the shadow of chronic pain, his story inspires anyone on their own path to healing.

Healing Beyond Mandated Treatments: Britt Mueller’s Path to Wellness after Mystery Illness Changed Her Life

Britt Mueller has navigated her health challenges with remarkable courage and determination. Her journey began unexpectedly after experiencing severe reactions to mandated vaccine treatments in 2021, which led to the onset of a mysterious neurological illness that will continue to impact her in some way for the rest of her life.

At the same time Britt was training for a new career as a life coach, Britt’s health began to decline with symptoms that included weak and shaky legs, episodes of fatigue, and issues with hormone replacement therapy. Her condition escalated to the point where simple tasks such as walking became so hard that, on some days, it forced her into a state of near immobility.

“At one point, when I was really sick, it was a struggle for me to get to the bathroom. I had to hang onto the walls because my legs wouldn’t go; they were heavy, and I had to drag them. That’s just indicative of how bad it was.”

Despite numerous visits to medical professionals, Britt’s mystery illness was brushed off as anxiety. It was only after consulting with a neurologist that she received a diagnosis of functional neurological disorder, which she attributes to the mandated treatments she had undergone.

“Mandated treatment,” Britt asserts, pinpointing the catalyst for her health crisis. “The doctor at the clinic I visited had another patient with the same issues. I’ve been in contact with vaccine injury groups, and my reactions to my symptoms are not uncommon. There are a lot of people like me out there, and there are many people who are worse than me.”

Her experience resonates with many others in similar circumstances, highlighting a broader issue faced by those who experience adverse reactions to mandated medical interventions.

Britt’s path to recovery took a decisive turn when she decided to take matters into her own hands. Frustrated with the medical responses she received, Britt embarked on a healing journey centred around raw food and a low-fat diet—a choice inspired by her past success managing menopause symptoms through dietary changes.

“Essentially, I guess I was fed up with the medics,” Britt explains. “I started on raw foods, low fats avoided gluten, dairy, eggs, and additives, and I got results within a couple of weeks.”

This dietary shift marked a turning point in Britt’s health. Over four to five months, she noticed gradual improvements in her symptoms. Once daunting tasks became manageable, and her energy levels began to stabilise. While encountering the occasional setbacks along the way, Britt tweaked her diet as needed and remained committed to her self-healing journey.

Today, Britt considers herself largely healed, though she remains mindful of her energy levels and continues to prioritise her health through diet and maintain lifestyle choices indicative of her necessary healing regime. She has started her work as a life coach, focusing on helping people undergoing a health journey similar to the one she has just taken, and she is grateful for the progress she has made and the lessons she has learned.

For others navigating similar health challenges, Britt offers practical advice based on her experience: “Try raw foods, low-fat raw foods, and cut out dairy, gluten, and eggs. If you don’t see a result within a month, then you know it’s not working for you. I’ve researched this, and there’s a big tradition of raw food diets that heal people.“

Britt’s journey reminds us of the necessity of self-care and perseverance when navigating health issues, the importance of listening to one’s body, and the importance of exploring alternative approaches to healing when conventional methods fail.

I hope her story encourages others to seek answers and become self-responsible advocates for their health journeys.

The Hidden Dangers of Silicone Implants: Franziska’s Road to Recovery

Franziska Boon is a mother, nanny, medium hobby farmer, and the founder of a startup focused on aquaponics. She is passionate about good, real food and deeply involved in her community. Fran’s life took a dramatic turn after she underwent cosmetic surgery, which included breast reconstruction.

Fran had lost significant weight and participated in a TV show called “Beauty in the Beach” on Netflix. She travelled overseas to have excess skin removed and planned to have a fat transfer to lift her breasts. “I just wanted to have a fat transfer to plump and lift my breasts because I could have flopped them over my shoulders. They were so saggy,” However, this option wasn’t available, and she ended up getting silicone implants instead.

Almost immediately after the implants were put in, Fran’s body reacted negatively. Her hands turned purplish-blue with white blotches, and she couldn’t warm them up. While recovering in the hospital, she was diagnosed with Raynaud’s Disease, an autoimmune response to the silicone implants. Fran recalls, “The facility that I was in was amazing, and I felt like I was informed at the time, but as soon as I had the implants put in my body, I immediately had an immune response.”

Fran didn’t remove the implants right away, which led to numerous health problems. As a former cancer survivor, she was very aware of her body’s baseline health and noticed significant changes. She felt nervous, anxious, and depressed and experienced weight gain, body pain, and difficulty breathing. Her right shoulder hurt constantly, and she had blurry vision, chronic fatigue, and joint pain. She felt like she was in a constant daze, similar to the brain fog a new mother experienced. She describes this period, saying, “I felt like breastfeeding brain, like when you have a baby, and you’re a new mum, and you feel like you’re always in this daze.”

Through research, Fran learned about breast implant illness and realised she had many of the symptoms. “I learned about breast implant illness, and it’s a real thing. I did a quiz to see it, and I was like the poster child; I could tick nearly every box. It was like, “Oh my god, I’ve got to get these out now”.

Determined to improve her health, she decided to have the implants removed. Finding a skilled surgeon was challenging because removing implants correctly requires a plastic surgeon experienced in dealing with the body’s response to silicone. “They have to understand what the surgery is. Silicon implants go into your body, the body starts to defend itself, and it produces a scab, which is like a capsule that becomes the interface between the rest of the body, so that’s that transition zone of the toxins leeching into your body. Some surgeons will say I’ll take your implants out, but they leave all of those toxins behind, so you’re still being impacted.”

She eventually found a surgeon in Melbourne who successfully removed the implants, although the right one had adhered to her rib cage and required cauterisation to remove. Fran says, “So basically, my ribs got barbecued just to get all of that toxin out.”

The type of implants Fran had were on a recall list, a fact she wasn’t aware of until much later. Hospitals don’t always notify patients about such recalls, leaving many women unaware of the risks.

After the implants were removed, Fran focused on holistic healing and self-care. Her surgeon used light spectrum therapy to aid in healing, and Fran embraced a ketogenic diet to help detoxify her body. She eliminated sugar, carbohydrates, alcohol, and soft drinks and practised intermittent fasting. Fran drank plenty of water and used activated charcoal as a binder for toxins.

She also explored MTHFR gene mutation testing to understand her body’s detoxification pathways. Fran incorporated salt baths, homemade bone broth, herbal teas, collagen, probiotics, fermented vegetables, and kombucha into her diet. She used pure pawpaw ointment for her scars and took various nutritional supplements, including vitamins D, C, B12, iron, and zinc. Eating apples with the core and seeds helped remove radiation from her body. Gentle walking, rest, and, once healed, swimming were part of her routine to support her exhausted body. Fran emphasises, “I looked at food as being my medicine because now I’ve got this toxic shitstorm in my body.”

Fran also worked on emotional healing, addressing the guilt and shame she felt for putting herself through this ordeal. She learned to love and respect her body, treating it as a sacred vessel. This inner work was crucial in her healing journey. She shares, “I did this to myself; this isn’t something outside of myself, so that was huge, too. To look in the mirror and actually go ‘I love you, I’m really sorry I did this to you’ and to actually integrate and be connected to my body and treat it like a sacred vessel.”

Fran advises others on a healing journey to understand that one size doesn’t fit all. It’s important to believe in the chosen healing methods and to be mindful of who influences them during vulnerable times. “Be clear about who’s in your inner circle influencing you when you’re in that vulnerable state because if you have people projecting their fear on you, that will not help you get where you want to go. Sometimes, you have to love people from afar and know that they’re loving you the way that they know how. But not to take on their projections”.

She warns against silicone implants, calling them a “toxic shitstorm”, and encourages others to avoid them entirely. Fran’s advice is clear: “Be informed. I would honestly tell any person not ever to get silicone implants in their body. If it’s in your lips, butt, implants, tits, you name it, don’t do it.”

Franziska’s story powerfully reminds us of the importance of listening to our bodies, being well-informed, and prioritising self-care and holistic healing.
