What happens when we face death - and return to tell the tale? Today’s guest takes us on an extraordinary journey from advanced cancer to complete recovery, challenging our understanding of both healing and human consciousness.

Anita Moorjani is the New York Times best-selling author of Dying to Be Me: My Journey From Cancer, To Near Death, To True Healing and travels the world speaking to sold-out audiences who want to learn about her journey and experiences of embracing change, the power of healing, and the quest to live a full and unlimited life.

Anita’s story is an extraordinary one. After a 4-year battle with cancer, she fell into a coma and was given days to live. As her doctors gathered to revive her, she had a near-death experience (NDE) where she believes she crossed over to the other side and when she regained consciousness, her cancer began to heal. To the amazement of her doctors, she was free of countless tumours and cancer indicators within weeks.

In this powerful conversation, Anita explains how living fearlessly, cultivating self-love, and embracing joy became her pathway to healing. We discuss how people-pleasing, lack of self-worth, and suppressing our authentic selves can negatively impact our wellbeing. And, we also explore her wonderful concept of "energy equity" - a practical framework for understanding how our daily choices either nurture our energy or deplete it.

As a medical doctor, I found our discussion about the limitations of current medical knowledge particularly fascinating. We explore how cases like Anita's invite us to expand our understanding of healing and human potential.

This conversation goes beyond an extraordinary medical case. It offers practical wisdom for anyone seeking to live more authentically and create positive change in their lives. You may be sceptical - something Anita and I talk about - but I urge you to listen with an open mind. This episode challenges our assumptions about healing while offering hope for a more fulfilled life.

Mindsip insights from this episode:

Shift motivation from fear to love for healthier habits

Adopting healthy habits out of a fear of getting sick, rather than a love for your body, may have a negative impact on your health.

Break free from fear; embrace love for true safety

Contrary to the belief that fear keeps you safe, the speaker argues that fear actually keeps you shackled, while love is what truly keeps you safe.

Manage energy like currency for a balanced life

Use the 'Energy Equity' model to manage your life, where you consciously choose activities and relationships that add to your energy reserves rather than depleting them.

Transform cancer into a life-saving gift

The speaker views her cancer not as something that was killing her, but as a gift that ultimately saved her life from a state of self-negation.

Uncover emotional roots of cancer through self-acceptance

The speaker believes her cancer was caused not by physical factors, but by a lifetime of repressing her true self, lacking self-worth, and excessive people-pleasing.

Acknowledge spontaneous remission over drug effects in recovery narratives

The speaker's oncologist privately acknowledged her experience but publicly attributed her recovery to 'spontaneous remission' and her visions to the effects of drugs, highlighting a professional dilemma.

Achieve cancer-free status in five weeks after near-death experience

After a near-death experience from end-stage lymphoma, the speaker was declared cancer-free by doctors just five weeks later, with medical records documenting the rapid remission.

Understand mind as a filter for consciousness during near-death experiences

Citing researcher Dr. Bruce Greyson, the speaker suggests the mind is not created by the brain but is instead filtered by it, which could explain consciousness during a near-death experience.
