Hello and welcome back to the injured to elite podcast with your host me Dr. Dave Meyer Dream Coach and Performance Physical Therapist. Today we have an extraordinary guest, Mateo Difontaine. The story you are about to hear is graphic, emotional, and like no other story you have heard before. Mateo is a world renowned DJ, part of the band the Fun Lovin Criminals and performing for some of the most exclusive Hollywood parties including the Oscars Vanity Fair After Party, to spinning records on yachts off the coast of the south of france with some of the most prestigious artists in the world. Mateo’s life as he knew it came to a temporary halt 5 years ago in May of 2015. I had the grateful opportunity to sit down with Mateo in Brooklyn, just this past week where he graciously shared with me his mind-blowing story. Now, I apologize for the audio quality being a bit less than what I have previously given you all, but in Brooklyn you never know when the sirens are going to blare or the helicopters are going to fly overhead. I wanted to keep this as authentic as possible and unedited as Mateo shares his story less than 2 miles where the notorious BIG Biggie smalls grew up. Please keep your hearts and minds open and receptive as you are about to hear a personal and miraculous story from an absolute legend who continues to defy the odds.

Thought Vaccines: The Cure to Thought Viruses!
As part 2 of the Affirmations Episode, John Denney and I go deep into though viruses talking about both positive and negative thought viruses. A thought virus is defined by the author's of the book "Explain Pain" as a thought which indicates extreme danger in you and can be expressed amongst your senses, things you say, and things you think and believe. Others have defined thought viruses as "subconscious patterns that become ingrained in our being.”
We take a positive thought virus and call it a thought vaccine to cure these negative thought viruses and teach you how to cue yourself to use these at critical moments in journey when going from injured to elite.
