How far does this go, Faith?

Yeah.

I mean, it is always the question.

I'll give my sort of cliche response, and I think anyone in this world probably is aware of Dr. Joe Dispenza.

Yeah.

He was my first inspiration when it came to this.

I read, I can't remember which was the first book.

So, what are you saying here? Are you saying that some of our physical symptoms are what? A development of our minds? Yes.

Thank you for letting me know, but you know, you know, you're not really serving me.

Yeah, that's exactly it.

That's exactly the narrative.

But it's a different reframe for the sensation because you're saying like, I know you're telling me this.

I don't need it.

And that's exactly it.

Usually we're reframing it as something is wrong with my body.

So what

Okay

... you know, the people I work with are, like, pretty extreme scenarios, if you will.

You know, like, like, kind of, they've done a lot.

The kind of a prerequisite is you've seen a functional medicine doctor, you've done the, the testing.

You, you then are very confused because even, like, the in-depth testing, you know, I did every single one with functional medicine, you know, you've got nothing there.

So we're all like, "Okay, now this is a bit sticky.

Let's see what's going on." But that, of course, it applies to anyone, right? If you're...

Yeah.

How do you help people cope with that? And how have you?

I don't feel that panic because I had to become delusional to where...

Great, let's talk about delusion.

Awesome.

Yeah, I posted this on my stories.

I had a form I filled out and they were like, any pre-existing health conditions? And I checked no and I submitted it.

And I was like, oh, I was like, wait, this is the perfect opportunity to show my students like how my identity has changed so much that I had forgotten to press or to check yes.

That's really cool.

Mm-hmm

...

it was a laundry list.

And so in 2018 was when I had to leave my job in corporate America, and I was unable to work.

And from there, I went into functional medicine because I was using the traditional allopathic medicine model, which is, you know, like the Western medicine model, and for those who might not, you know, be aware, and they sort of ran out of solutions for me.

And so it was at that point that I found functional medicine, and I was already, like, a pretty healthy person.

Like, I grew up from-- my family is South American, so, like, I grew up eating really fresh foods and bone broth and whole foods.

Yeah
