In this live testimonial at a CBH event, Lakshmi recounts her journey from a stage‑4 metastatic cancer diagnosis in 2022 to her current role as a motivated survivor. After discovering a lump under her left breast, she was diagnosed with advanced breast cancer that had spread to her right lung and left femur, prompting chemotherapy and radiation. She describes the physical and emotional toll of treatment, including fatigue, weakened immunity, lung damage, and osteoporosis. Seeking additional healing, she encountered Badri Sir’s Breath Flow Mastery Workshop and the broader CBH (Conscious Breath Healing) program. Despite initial skepticism, she enrolled in the 2‑day workshop, then progressed to Silver and Diamond memberships, adhering to lung‑fitness exercises, dietary guidance, pranayama, meditation, and community support. Lakshmi reports rapid improvements: sinus clearance in two weeks, elimination of wheezing, increased lung capacity within days, disappearance of autoimmune rashes, reduced knee swelling and pain, weight loss of 5 kg, and overall immune strengthening. She credits the CBH mentors, spiritual practices, and a supportive community for her holistic recovery and newfound purpose. The hosts, Badri Gella and Speaker C, introduce and applaud her story, emphasizing its inspirational impact for other cancer patients.

I'll take you forward with my story. That was the year 2022. My life as teacher was going on very smooth and happy. Of all the subjects I taught, Legal studies was very popular, so I went beyond my schedule to retain the interest of the students and planned lots of field trips, activities, followed by evening classes at home. Naturally, this hectic schedule led to lack of exercise, irregular food timings, and naturally it affected my health. My body started giving signals, but I failed to notice them. One day, by chance, I felt a small body of lump beneath my left breast. Okay, we'll ask them to put I was in fear that something was not all right. I consulted a doctor. After mammography and further tests, it was confirmed that it was cancer. I was in shock. My family was in shock. I was diagnosed with fourth stage cancer. Metastasis, a stage where cancer spreads to other organs. My right lung was affected, my left femur bone was affected, and I was advised to undergo chemotherapy as the first step. It was a very stressful moment for me and my family. Everything seemed very dark. On one hand, I had a growing daughter who was in the midst of her education, and on the other, my husband who had taken voluntary retirement to deal with his own health issues. And now here I am to deal with my own health issues. It was a huge responsibility on my shoulder. I might have hit the rock bottom in my life, but I decided I will rebuild my life again. I promised myself I am not going to leave this body in this disease-ridden state. I would rather leave it when I am happy and healthy. With this positive frame of mind, I began my treatment. After a few visits to the hospital, I lost the fear of the disease. There are many who are affected by cancer. Seeing others fight the disease gave me courage. I am not the only one affected by cancer, nor everyone who gets cancer will die. So I started researching about cancer. I started reading the success stories of cancer survivors. I never talked about people who lost their life, only cancer survivors. I started paying very close attention towards my health. I surrounded myself with only positivity. This led me in the path of spirituality. Now the actual challenge began, the recovery stage. Surviving cancer treatment is by itself a victory, but recovering from the side effects of 8 cycles of chemotherapy and radiation was my next to tackle with. I never lost my hope. Experiencing physical fatigue to reduced or weakened immunity followed by secondary health risks, I had 3 major areas to work on. Spread of cancer has affected my lungs. Osteoporosis, or degeneration of bones and bone joints, which is the consequence of chemotherapy and radiation. And lastly, enhancing my weakened immunity. These were 3 major areas. Cancer might have drained my body, but it could never drain my spirit. I continued my quest for solutions. Around this time, I saw Badri Sir's video on Lung Fitness Challenge and 2 Days Breath Flow Mastery Workshop for just ₹99. I watched the video and the testimonials, but initially I had a bit of doubt about his authenticity. All the testimonials are claiming extraordinary results. Not a single negative opinion anywhere. Sir, my sinus vanished within 2 weeks. Another saying, sir, the wheezing sound in my lungs totally gone. Another saying, My lung capacity has increased within 4 days, and the doctor stunned with these miraculous experiences. After repeatedly viewing the video for several days spread over several weeks, I finally decided I will register myself for the 2-day Breath Flow Mastery workshop. After attending the 2-day Birth Flow Mastery Workshop, but while registering, little did I know at that stage that in very near future I would also be giving one such testimonial, which I doubted. And then after the 2-day workshop, I immediately joined Silver membership. I started seeing significant changes in my health, and I realized this place can give me everything that I needed. And then within a few days of becoming silver, silver member, I am here, the lifetime diamond member. I followed meticulously everything I was asked to do. I was very regular with my lung fitness challenge exercises. I meticulously followed the dietary advice given by the in-house dietitian, regular with prana healing sessions, and I paid particular attention to the miracles or experiences that members shared before and after the session and noted what is the ailment they overcame and what they did to get that result. And then I was very regular with my pranayama and meditation as Badri Sir has taught us. Naturally, I started seeing significant changes from within. I truly started healing. I remember a very popular saying in this regard. The doctor dresses the wound, the doctor dresses the wound, but it is the God who heals it. Badri sir, his dedicated team, the entire CBH community, and my mentors Chudamani ma'am, Rani ma'am, and Shivarajini Ma'am, who continuously motivated and cheered me. They are the true healers in my life. I take this opportunity to thank each one of them for holding my hand when I needed it the most. This act of kindness will stay with me forever. And what are the changes I saw after coming into the CBH? My breathing pattern changed. I started breathing better and my lung capacity increased. I used to have allergic rashes on my fingers. They vanished within 2 weeks, whereas the doctor said it is autoimmune and there is no definitive cure for this. The swelling around my knees and the pain has considerably reduced. And I realized my immunity is truly building up. My weight reduced by 5 kgs within 2 months, which reduced the pressure on my knees, and it was mainly because of the knee strengthening exercises that we were taught, which I used to practice. In the earlier methods, before coming to CBH, whatever effort I made to reduce weight, if I reduced my weight, it affected my immunity and other areas of my body negatively. But with CBH, the dietary advice given, my journey was very smooth. I didn't have any side effects due to the diet I followed. The regular pranayama healing, prana healing sessions and the Wednesday wisdom sessions, they gave me an insight into our ancient Indian knowledge, which I was detached earlier, and kept me firm and strong on the path of spirituality. And the regular chanting club kept me energized throughout the day. The Guru Padukas Stotram was my first. As I said earlier, I truly started healing from within with the true healers who have taken a major part in my life. The entry of CBH into my life made me a person, as a person, whole and complete, and gave me a new life with purpose. I am now very mindful of what I eat, what I think, and what are the things I do around me. It has made me realize that there is a beautiful world around me other than just myself. Madhri Sir made me realize that the purpose in life is not just about what you achieve. It is about how you touch lives, how you grow within yourself, and how you make the world a better place than you found it. To take Badri Sahib's teachings forward, I had taken a small step towards helping people in need, helping people with their medical needs, and educating people about the need to be kind. The act of kindness from now onwards will be my swadharma. I now wish to conclude my speech by saying, you need not be big to be meaningful. You need not be big to be meaningful. Do your swadharma, follow your duty, and when duty is done with a great intent, it creates a lasting impact.
Thank you so much. Please give a standing ovation to Lakshmi ji. Please, please, please give a standing ovation. Wow, so what an inspiring story. Thank you, thank you. Super duper inspiring story. And I think like you implemented whatever I have said to the team, so that's why I have seen these results. I think there are many cancer people like they thought like their life is at end, but you are a hope for them. So I want you to keep spreading this knowledge and wish you all the best in your journey.
