The story of healing.
Next to me is Dagmar Schult, Dagmar Schult welcome!
Nice to have you here, you have an amazing story.
Would you like to tell us your story? You were suffering
from chronic back pain for many years
Yes, sure. So it started all with that that I did a competitive sport for many years
and this was acrobatic rock'n'roll dancing
and this is a very athletic form of
dancing and it is very demanding for
the body. So I had a lot of injuries
during that time and a lot of
injuries of my back. So I had several disk protrusions
and lumbagos and I have a sacro iliac joint disfunction.
Yes and I never really
listened to my body, I didn't respect my health at all
and I just wanted it to perform.
And so I even took painkillers to just go on
We had a very ambitious goal at that time
that was the World Championship in Rock'n'Roll group dancing
and therefore I did everything
So you were suffering for many years, over 10 years
13 years. How was that influencing your life, Dagmar?
Yeah, it influenced my life really badly.
I could not do what I love to do.
I had to stop dancing, even
going out for dance at night and
I could barely move and even sitting was stressful for my
back. So just going out for
watching a movie and being
with my friends for dinner was just stress for my back.
Life really sucked at that time. So you got to the point where you knew
you have to change something life couldn't go on like that.
So, what did you do?
Of course I cannot reveal the whole story
here. You will find my whole story in the book
"The Spirit of Success!" by Adam Markel, where I am a
co-author. But, what I can tell you now is,
I deeply believe that we are no victims in
life, that we are creators of our own life.
And so at
that point in time, I didn't know what do.
I didn't know how to go on. One night
when I really hit the bottom and I couldn't stand it anymore
I just asked the Universe for help
and believe it or not, the Universe sent help
in form of a Yoga teacher of mine
who showed me some very basic exercises to mobilize my spine.
And he taught me about the power
of breathing and the power of awareness. And that was really the turning point.
So this is what you doing now actually? It's like you wanna share your
story, you wanna share your experience and help others and inspire others
to overcome their pain and not believing in being a victim?
You wanna help them now? Yes, definitely! That's what I want to do.
So I know what they are going through and I know they
do not have to suffer from pain. They can have their lives back,
which they want and they deserve. And I really
love to help them and that's what I'm going to do now.
That's an awesome story
and you look so beautiful and so happy Dagmar.
So, how is life today now? What changed?
Life is great now, I am really happy again
I can do everything I want to do. I can dance again,
I really enjoy life, I love my life so much
and I am so grateful for all the things that happened. Congratulations that's
awesome and I am very excited to read more about you in the book
"The Spirit of Success" and of course you got an email and a website address so we can
definitely stay in touch with you. This is a very awesome
and inspiring story, Dagmar. I wish you all the best
Thanks for sharing your story with us. Thanks a lot Laura.
