Episode I Stayed in Total Darkness for 10 Days And It Changed My DNA
What really happens when you spend ten full days alone in complete darkness?
In this extraordinary episode, Dr Carol Talbot joins Lisa to share one of the most intense and transformative experiences of her life - a 10-day dark room retreat designed to strip away external stimuli, awaken the body’s natural chemistry, and reveal who we truly are beneath our learned patterns and conditioning.
Carol explains in grounded, accessible language how the body floods with melatonin, then pinoline, and eventually endogenous DMT when deprived of light, creating a cascade of healing, repair and vivid inner experiences. She also shares how darkness helped her reconnect to what she calls our “multi-dimensional DNA” - not just the biology we inherit, but the deeper intelligence, memory and potential held within us.
You’ll hear:
• What happens to the body and mind in pitch-black darkness • Why melatonin and DMT can create intense emotional breakthroughs • How childhood conditioning shapes the “story” we keep reliving • What DNA might hold beyond physical traits • Why many women feel stuck in repeating patterns — and how to break them • How Carol uncovers the fears, blocks and beliefs that quietly trip us up • What “optimal timelines” are and how they reveal your potential
This is one of the most unusual and thought-stretching conversations we’ve ever shared - part science, part spirit, part emotional awakening - and a powerful invitation to question who you are, what’s holding you back, and who you could be if you stepped into a bigger version of yourself.
