Running up to the class, in uniform, J calls to us breathlessly “I just want you to know this is really working for me. If I get yelled at, I just take it and do better. My Sergeant asked me what’s up with me and told me I’m doing way better work. I’m getting along with people at work and it’s only been three classes! I’m helping others too! I can’t stay. I just wanted to let you all know.” He turns and begins running back to his car, then turns again and yells “hey, and it’s really helped my relationship with God too! I’m quiet enough to listen!”

This (mindfulness medication class) helped me so much. It’s a lot having a stressful job in the military, my wife being pregnant, and having little kids. Now, I use it whenever I get a chance. My kids in seeing the doctor with my wife and I’m sitting in the waiting room meditating. I park my car before going in to work and just sit there for ten minutes and meditate. I’m so calm, people at work ask me what I’ve been doing and I’m teaching them! I’m teaching my kids too, right before I put them to bed, we meditate.

I can’t believe how I can handle stress now and not blow off the handle. I just take a few deep meditative breaths and either walk away and talk about it later, or sometimes after a few breaths I’m calm and can talk right then. I’m not as on edge. My PTSD is less and I sleep better. I’m just a better person all round. I’m just not as angry. Even I like myself now.

Your mindfulness class helped me so much. I take things slower now. I actually taste my food instead of just shoveling it as fast as I can without even really tasting it. I don’t get mad at people when I’m driving like I did. I’d get out of my car and yell at people, daring them to fight me. Now, I just think something bad might be happening in their life. I don’t feel stress all the time and don’t feel anxious. I still meditate now, over a year after taking your class. I think my family likes me better too – they say they do. This should be taught to everyone who is in the Army and to every civilian who works for the military. It is that important for us all to get along and help each other.

The Mindfulness class was so helpful for me, and I’m so glad my husband was able to attend your next Mindfulness class and my son attended a class in Colorado! It has totally changed the way we interact with each other and we are so much happier now. We are more sensitive to each other’s needs and can listen to hear our different opinions. It has made all the difference for us as a family. Thank you.

Thanks for doing EFT with me yesterday. You might not believe this, but the protracted bleeding I told you about after my surgery 3 weeks ago stopped last night. No more, it’s done-only 24 hours after tapping. This works!

This (Emotional Freedom Technique, EFT) has to be the best thing you do! I’ve not tried everything you offer, but this was amazing. I was so confused about where to turn with all the things I have to do and my responsibilities. I couldn’t seem to figure out how to prioritize things. I didn’t even want to do EFT because I didn’t think it would work and you said it could take up to an hour…that’s a long time. But when we finished, it seemed like only 15 minutes, and you said it’d be about 50! Better yet, you took all my responses to your questions and showed me how I had answered my own problems! I think this is so cool. This is your big seller, right here!!

Thanks for the reading you did for me and for my fiancé. The details you knew about his grandfather were amazing and you can see that this photo looks just like the man you described. You described his personality, what my fiancé remembers about him and things they did together. Combined with the information you shared about my fiancé, the reading gave him strength, happiness, and a motivation he hasn’t had in a while. I could hardly believe your sharing why my professional choices totally matched for me. It makes so much sense now. I loved hearing from my mom too and your sharing her words with me, just like she would say it! I knew it was her. Thank you – we will share what you have done for us with everyone! You will hear from us again!

Thank you for doing a psychic reading for me. I was really searching for a way to make a life-changing medical decision. Your clarity on the two decisions, neither of which you knew-and you didn’t even know what my issue was, gave me the information I needed to decide and move forward.

Valerie, I can't thank you enough for bringing me peace after 3 years of wondering. Although you humbly explained that you were still learning, my session with you was very accurate. There were things you said that only my father and sister would have known about our lives together. You helped them both to 'speak' and 'laugh' and even 'dance' with their messages to me. You helped bring me closure after my father's shocking death and the sad death of my younger only sibling after her long painful illness. When they passed within a short time of each other I felt I'd lost all my life-support and I've often felt like a lost soul, but now I know they're with me always. Valerie, with your genuine gift, you filled my heart with their love. I laughed and I cried. It was beautiful. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Eden Energy Medicine incorporates Eastern Medicine evaluation and treatment techniques such as acupressure, meridian tracing, Chakras, Auras and various treatments designed specifically for "what ails you".

Description

Energy Medicine is the practice of assessing one’s energies, which can become blocked, stuck, or sluggish. During treatment an energy medicine practitioner provides interventions to help the body resume it’s natural energy flow. Your body then helps itself to heal. Energy Medicine uses the body’s own energy to help an individual feel better physically, emotionally, cognitively, and spiritually. Working with your energies is invigorating and revitalizing. It can bring greater vitality and balance, clearer thinking and awareness, and make you more durable and resilient.
