“From the initial assessment to the final session, your staff of trainers and administrative personnel showed a refreshing professionalism, punctuality, and positivism. All of this served to create a space where I felt safe letting go of some deeply held tension. The seizures in my hand reminded me of the tense moments of flying my A-10 attack jet during air refueling, weather formation flights, and sketchy surface attack and close air support missions throughout South Korea, Arizona, and Alaska. But, there was clearly a lot more stored tension than just that incurred through my military service. The feedback I received from the BST staff and the BSC equipment has given me clear benchmarks for opening and connecting with a space of rejuvenation, relaxation, and release. Your team at BST and this process of BSC put effective tools for “letting go” into my hands. You offered this experience to me as a veteran service-member, but I must thank you as a human being. I can’t express enough, my gratitude for your hospitality, encouragement, generosity, and attention to detail!”

“I live in Cape Town, South Africa with my parents, who recently ventured off America-wards and returned on Christmas Day with one of your machines. I was then instructed that I should give training on the machine a try. I have been a rather sickly child for parts of my life- I had malaria five times before my 9th birthday- but mainly the last three years. I contracted glandular fever at the end of 2003 and never really shook it, leading to an immune system that couldn’t really cope with everyday activity. I was also an insomniac of the worst kind, I mean we are talking four hours on an average (good) night and being exhausted and feeling awful all day. My school has tried to fail me-unsuccessfully, thanks to good grades-three years running for poor attendance. Needless to say I wasn’t having much fun and pretty much prepared to try anything.

And you have fixed me! I sleep. I actually close my eyes and wake up an average of eight hours later. I have been to school every day this term-all four weeks of it. I haven’t caught any of the colds or stomach bugs that went around. I am calmer and I can hold my temper. I would just like to thank you, from the bottom of my heart. You have saved my sanity. You are pure genius. I wanted to proposition you with marriage, but  mom says there are laws against that.”

I came to BrainWave suffering from anxiety, O.C.D. (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder), problems sleeping, stress as well as some other issues. Through the early stages of the Intensive, I started to notice a change, especially the way I slept. I was sleeping through the night and waking up rested. As the program went on, I noticed that I was much calmer, less agitated and happier. I now can actually sit, relax and watch a whole movie without having five different jobs on the go at the same time as the movie! This is a big change for me. I worry about things a lot less and my stress level has come way down. My colleagues at work don’t know I went through brain training, but they can sure notice I’m much mellower now!
Thank you BrainWave for everything.

I was consistently having a lot of trouble getting to sleep: so many ideas, challenges and problems buzzing in my head that I just could not switch off. About half way through my Intensive at BrainWave–after my 5th session–all that started to change. I am now enjoying a full night’s sleep and wake up each morning refreshed and ready to go. Thank you. What a difference!

Brainstate training under the guidance of Thomas Portney accomplishes this shift within the brain and has improved both my sense of calmness, and increased my capacity for organization in ways I thought impossible prior to this process.  Brainstate training has relinquished PTSD symptoms and to my amazement general anxiety has diminished also.  My husband and I have received countless individual blessings due to this miraculous healing method and now we are both witnessing our marriage fulfillment increase as deep joy and renewed intimacy are reborn within our relationship. I truly feel that The Wizard gave me a brain and that new brain opened my heart.  Thank you!

My experience with Brain State conditioning at Brain Works! has been very positive. I have completed 15 sessions and overall I feel happier and my level of stress has decreased considerably. Or maybe I’m just better at handling the stress.

I have always had trouble expressing my thoughts and finding the right words to describe things. Since doing the Brain State Conditioning I am more comfortable in conversations and the words I need just seem to be there when I need them.

Three unexpected results: My golf score has improved, my blood pressure went down about 15 points, and I’m zooming through the sudoku puzzles.
Thanks for everything.

“We heard about Brain State Technologies, and more specifically, The Evolutionary Brain, from our nephew in July 2008. He had done eight sessions with Kean in the fall of 2007. He thought that this was something that might help with our 32 year old son, who had been diagnosed with an Obsessive Thinking Disorder with OCD traits more than five years ago. At that time, our son had sunk into a deep depression which had plummeted us into a dark world where we felt very helpless and scared. We took our son to a psychologist who counseled him and put him on an anti-psychotic medication to slow his thinking down. His life pretty much consisted of going to work, coming home, sitting in the garage smoking two packs of cigarettes and downing over a six pack of beer every night. He was so “into his head” that it was like living with a robot. He would hardly speak to us and if we asked him a question it would take him about seven to ten seconds to respond, as if it took him that long to process our question before answering. It was a very stressful time for us all.

We decided to give BSC a try and made arrangements with Kean to bring our son down to Pennsylvania to be assessed and trained. He did ten sessions and seemed to have a positive experience. The first thing we noticed was that he was sleeping better. At the end of the first week, he was talking a lot and responding normally. He is now at the end of his third week after training and we are completely amazed at his progress! He is off the medication he was using, he feels happy, has increased self confidence, he is smoking half of what he was before, feels more comfortable around other people and is much more focused and back into life. He even tried some beer after the three weeks were up and didn’t like the taste or the way he felt the next day. So he has given it up!

We can now look back and see that his anxieties have been haunting him for over half of his life. He is an absolute JOY to be around! We realize that Brain State Conditioning has changed the course of his life and our lives. Thank you, Kean and Louise, for providing our son with the key that has unlocked his new life of possibilities!”

“My training with Jackie at New Life Brain Center was fabulous! My goals were for depression, brain fog, focus and attention, self-esteem, and anxiety. It is hard to believe that in 10 days you can have this much difference in the way you feel. Almost immediately I started speaking clearly and without confusion. My depression is gone and I have more self-esteem. Sometimes I get a little anxious, but nothing close to how I was before.

My immediate problems and surrounding did not change, but I am changed. I now have the ability to make different choices and therefore my environment IS changingv. This truly does give you a NEW LIFE and I can not wait to get back for more sessions!”

“My first visit to Ultimate Brain Institute was to relieve depression. I was depressed at least 75% of the weekends for the past 3-4 years, with a history of depression since High School. I would sleep all weekend to avoid painful thoughts, or I would be mentally and emotionally drained. Many week nights I would isolate myself in my home and watch TV.

Since my first sessions (6 months ago), I have not had 1 weekend or even 1 night of depression. My emotions leveled out and the angry and painful thoughts just disappeared.

My second visit was to overcome major mental blocks, anxiety, fear and resistance. These have all been either completely eliminated or greatly reduced and are manageable now.

Jude Davis my trainer has a passion for her work and it shows. She is very thorough and explains things to me. She really wants you to be healthy and free from problems.”

Nancy Eaton over at Brain Works! in Paradise CA has sent in some testimonials from a few of her clients. It is great to read about the help our affiliates are offering people.

This first testimonial was written by Loyd B., a 74 year-old semi-retired man dealing with stress. Loyd writes:

“My experience with Brain State conditioning at Brain Works! has been very positive. I have completed 15 sessions and overall I feel happier and my level of stress has decreased considerably. Or maybe I’m just better at handling the stress.

I have always had trouble expressing my thoughts and finding the right words to describe things. Since doing the Brain State Conditioning I am more comfortable in conversations and the words I need just seem to be there when I need them.

Thanks for everything.”

The next testimonial deals with sleep and depression. Eric E., a 42 year-old warehouse manager writes:

“Before I started Brain State Conditioning training I was not sleeping well, I was depressed and just did not feel good about life in general. I have been battling drug addiction and depression for the past 20 years and was just plain tired of it all.

I was sleeping better after my first session and after six sessions I felt the depression lift and it has not returned. I have gone through 13 sessions and plan on coming back every year or so.

It has been 11 months since I started with Brain State Conditioning and I still do not have any urges to use drugs and life is better than ever. I give a strong recommendation to anyone facing recovery to try this training.”

Finally Deborah J., a 38 year-old massage therapist talks about a genetic condition that effects her memory.

“Before going to Brain Works! I was plagued with an inability to stay focused. I also had no ability to recall specific information or words. This disability affected all of the activities in my life, especially my performance in school and my relationships.

When I met Nancy Eaton at Brain Works! she was very interested in my particular situation and felt that I could benefit from Brain State Conditioning. At first I was skeptical because I felt that my condition was permanent. I had learned to live my entire life with it and I just couldn’t see reversing or fixing something so deeply entrenched in my head with a few sessions of training.

The first couple of sessions were challenging for me. I was left mentally exhausted with a headache. However, as the sessions went on, each morning when I woke up I began to feel more alert and I felt as if I was in more control of my mind. People around me told me I was more coherent. I experienced something I had never felt before; I was beginning to access the left side of my brain.

The positive impact that Brain State Technologies has had on my life is as follows:
• I am definitely a lot more alert with a sense of mental clarity
• My mind is able to find the right words to express my thoughts and I answer questions more freely as well as finish sentences without much effort.
• My thought process is more uniform, as opposed to random
• I am able to problem solve using previously learned information
•The neck and shoulder pain that I have had from and accident 12 years ago has diminished by about 90%.”
