Imagine living your life exactly as you are today, and suddenly over the course of three days your sight continually deteriorates until you are completely blind. As you and the doctors try to figure out what is happening, you realize you also cannot stand up; paralysis is now setting in.

This is what Vanessa Potter went through ten years ago. She went from a busy television producer to full-time healing from blindness and paralysis. She was able to not only overcome her health issues, but immersed herself in the world of mindfulness and meditation. Working with a researcher at Cambridge University, she created a groundbreaking experiment that allowed participants to view their brain waves through art. We talk about her journey in this episode. We also hit on scoliosis, brain wave states, different forms of meditation, and forest bathing.
