Pain Release & Healing

Story from M.H

Thank you for a wonderful Seminar at Yackandandah.  I use your tapes almost every day for Relaxation and find my Peaceful Place very helpful.  After a Stroke I was on Medication for Depression but after developing an allergy to the Medication I am currently managing with the help of my Peaceful Place!

Story from K.J

I was using a walking stick, taking pain killers - 27 pills each day & I had high blood pressure. I'm now taking no pills at all, forgetting to take my walking stick & the doctor's amazed at my blood pressure.

Story from J.W

This year has been full of frustration and pain but since attending your seminar I am more positive, have more control of the pain level in my legs and I am sure I am much nicer to be around as a result.  I don't think anything will equal the thrill I received when I realised I had walked properly up the stairs at the conference centre on Sunday morning - the first time in the 3 years since my accident!  I am also amazed that I spent two days 9am to 6pm and left each day refreshed, not jaded.  This alone speaks of the benefit I received and continue to receive from your wonderful methods.

I would like to express to you also the wonderful "feeling" at the Seminar.  I think my husband summed it up when he said ... "everyone had a lovely smile for me each evening as they left, it must have been good in there."  Thank you Sandy, I feel I have a new start to my life.

Story from Sandy about Bill

I've told nearly everyone that during my "endeavour to prove" that the subconscious mind does work I visited a consultant.  His name was Bill Robertson.  Bill said to me "You're doing it" (going to Alpha).

Sandy:"I have to prove it to me."

Bill: "OK, There are two challenging things to do - one is to stop smoking and the other is to release weight."

Sandy: "I don't smoke, so I'll work on weight."

Well, Bill said hello to me at a recent seminar.  He shared with everyone that he had had a stroke - down the right hand side of his body and the doctor told him he wouldn't walk again.  Bill's attitude was - you just watch me!  Within 10 days he was up and about.  Very soon after, another stroke - really bad.  Bill couldn't talk and the right side of his face was twisted, besides not being able to walk.  Once again you can imagine what the doctors said.  Bill's attitude was "well this time it's really serious - it'll be a good test of my Alpha powers."  You can imagine the rest.  That's right! Up and about, and speaking normally in two weeks!  You're an inspiration Bill.  Thanks for all your help and advice.

Story from S.P

One direct link of your teaching was put into practice 2 weeks ago when on the beach my heel came down on a boxthorn branch and the spike broke off in my heel; PP and control straight away.  36 years ago I had stepped on a similar branch and had to go to hospital and have an operation to remove similar thorns.  This time the pain was almost non existent, I believe because of your teaching and even the past did not catch up with me as it was one thing I had feared.   The heel became swollen and red by the time I had made it home, so I washed it off and found the offending half inch spike underneath the skin and pulled it out, and with it a rush of blood.   Three days later I could hardly feel that there had been any thorn there at all, so it certainly works - it's great!  Also I have been on a diet to release weight and my doctor indicated to me that over Christmas I would have trouble keeping it under control but I actually released 1 kilogram over the 4 weeks and I didn't worry about my diet all that much.  Once again I was thrilled.  The Seminar, the tapes and the learning have made a difference in my life and I'm so grateful.  Many thanks.

Story from R.C, NSW

At the end of 1993 I had developed psoriasis, where patches of skin recycle in 3 days instead of the normal 30 days, resulting in red scaly patches.   I was told by the specialist that there was no cure. Then I found the CALM technique.  My next appointment with the specialist was four weeks away and so I visualised myself leaving his office feeling excited because my skin was clear and the specialist was “dumbfounded” over this “cure”.  I'm happy to say the specialist was dumbfounded.

Story from W.R, WA

Shortly after my marathon run in October 1994 I was thrown from a horse and had a groin injury for 8 months - I was never confident that I could run freely.  I used your Healing Tape once a day without fail and the groin injury issue vanished.  With 3 weeks to go to the 1995 Marathon I started to notice a soreness in my right foot.  I was unable to walk properly. My doctor suggested 3 months rest.  With new running shoes and my healing meditation I was back in training in 5 days and persisted and achieved the success I had planned.

Story from M.J, Vic

Jack is 71 years old and came to the seminar for prostate pain.  At the seminar, after the pain meditation Jack stood up even before I was able to take control again and he said as he walked to the centre of the floor: ”Well I've got an announcement to make.  For the first time in 18 months I've got no pain.”  Jack went to his doctor about a month after the first seminar and asked his doctor to take his pulse rate.  Then Jack asked him to take it again - it was lower.   He also did this with his blood pressure and the doctor was amazed.  No more prescriptions for pain for  Jack.

Story from D.M, NSW

I was winning local ski races which was in line with my goal of becoming World Champion. I had a fantastic trainer, a beautiful girlfriend and a family that facilitated unconditional love. At 8pm on 13th March 1993 my life had taken a different direction - I was in hospital with my right arm no longer functioning - my goals of college and World Titles shattered. Shortly after, tests proved my arm would probably remain paralysed and painful for the rest of my life. High speed ski racing accidents can be very unforgiving! I now live with torturous pain. I had been introduced to Sandy's work and have utilised the PP technique countless times to have pain literally vanish in seconds and it is here where I often turn to before making important decisions.

Story from someone not to be identified

I bought your book - Piece of Mind & the 2 tapes in 1994 when I was on medication for high blood pressure. I attended your course in 1995. I have never taken the original drugs prescribed, however by applying your methods, my blood pressure is now normal. I “treated” swollen lymph glands in my right arm pit with meditation to the extent that the swelling was no longer detectable. I have now had one full year without pain and am presently travelling around Australia enjoying life to the full.

Story from A.D

From Sandy’s Introductory Tape I learned I am no longer a candidate for psychiatric treatment!   Thinking about my car accident, the understanding of how I returned to the living, when expected to go the other way, is to me awesome.  The words breaking through the haze of my mind “I’ve got to get out of this” were repeated over and over.  The ‘THIS’ was a ½ inch thick plaster of Paris in which I was encased from waist down to cover knee injury and to keep my dislocated hip in place.  I had no physical strength, and yet I broke open that thick plaster with hands not strong enough to hold a spoon.  I am sure the strength came from the 88% power of my mind.   I became aware of my surroundings, began to get better, and now believe pressure blocking nerve supply to the brain was released.

Later, I reduced blood pressure from 220 to 180 in the doctor’s surgery in a few minutes (it was once 240!).  The doctor gave in to my request of no treatment for high blood pressure and it is now of no further concern.  My self image is improved and lots more.

Story from T.T, Tas

I had my first heart attack at about 8.30PM one hot Tuesday evening (would you believe that it was still 30 degrees in Hobart) just after completing my regular evening workout. I was sitting down putting on my socks when the symptoms first struck. I was alone, everybody else having left the gym, and the staff were at the other end of the complex. They were too far away to hear, and I could not raise my voice loud enough to be heard outside of the change room. I knew that the next person due in there was the cleaner, and that was not till 9.00PM. It was what happened next that makes me truly indebted to you Sandy. I went to my Peaceful Place and was able to bring down my pulse rate, control the sweating and feeling of nausea and “distanced” the pain sufficiently to allow me to get dressed and go for help. There should be no need to tell you what I did first when I was struck again some two weeks later. I’m here to tell you it works!

I look forward to catching up with you again in the not too distant future, but in the meantime I know that your support is only a tape away.

Story from A.C, SA

Firstly, I would like to say a heartfelt thank you for enabling me to attend your two day seminar recently in Adelaide. It was without a doubt the best I have attended and as I have owned Piece of Mind for some years, it was great for me to have these ideas reinforced by practice.

I felt that I understood the Emotional Anchor much better, as I had been unsure about this before. I also had an opportunity to look around the outside of my Peaceful Place. Prior to the seminar, I had always gone straight into my PP without looking around. Now I enjoy the 360 degree view, when I have time!

One of the things that really impressed me was your honesty and warmth, and you spoke in a manner that was uncomplicated, and easy to follow. As a teacher I am often a little critical of the presentation styles of others. You scored a 10/10!

Last year I was invited to speak publicly about my experiences in teaching relaxation to school children. I was very honoured and was quick to acknowledge that my inspiration came from your book Piece of Mind.

When I started school on the Monday morning (after a 2 week holiday) I was brimming with enthusiasm and wanted to tell my colleagues about my wonderful weekend seminar. I was bursting to tell them about being “hooked” up to the electroencephalograph and the way it showed that I could access the alpha state very rapidly. I was really excited about meeting my class, as I had a much more positive outlook, although others tell me that I’m a very positive teacher anyway!

On Thursday of the same week my life took a dramatic turn, as I was diagnosed with early stage breast cancer. I’m now at home recuperating from an operation and awaiting radiotherapy. I wouldn’t be honest if  I said that I wasn’t shocked. However, while I went through 4¼ hours of gruelling tests to confirm the diagnosis, I thought of the anecdote that you told us about the woman who had needle biopsies.

When I was subjected to the needle biopsy, with the “cast of thousands” in the room with me, I thought “Well, here you go, use your PP.” I closed my eyes, even though I was invited to watch the screen. I took some deep breaths and went to my PP. I could hear people telling me that it would be painful, but I hardly felt a thing. Afterwards, the woman who performed the biopsy said “Were you off on a desert island?” I explained a little and she replied she could tell.

Before I underwent the bone scans, blood test and X-rays I used my PP. I continued to teach for 4 days, and my colleagues were shocked, and remarked on my really positive outlook. I kept telling myself that I couldn’t afford a negative thought and that I would cross a bridge only if I had to.

I continued to go to my PP and into a ‘Healing room” and use your Healing Tape. On the day after the operation the surgeon said to me “You should have the biggest smile on your face. The tumour was 0.85cm, not 1.2cm as the ultra-sound showed. The lymph nodes are clear.”

Of course I have some down moments, but I am fairly at peace with myself. The tapes have been so helpful. Sandy, I am so grateful that I could be at the seminar. If my journey so far would encourage anyone else, please use it, just as I used the story of the woman and the needle biopsy. Again, my sincere thanks and appreciation.

Story from F.M, NSW

I so look forward to receiving your “Switch On” Newsletters that I’m sure I could not live without them. They are a constant reminder to keep the techniques you taught me 2½ years ago, polished and “alive”... and they have definitely played a large part in my recovery programme from a knee operation last week. Between you, my surgeon and my physio, I am in good hands. I am especially blessed! Pain is such a minor issue that my physio is perplexed ... but then again he hasn’t been to my PP, has he? Attending your CALM Seminar in August 1995 provided a very dramatic turning point in my life ... but it didn’t happen instantaneously. There were a lot of issues I had to confront head-on in my life, and it really has taken me 2½ years to do that, with the constant help of your tapes, techniques and your very personal newsletters. The great beauty of it is that the more I work through them, the greater the depth I feel to my life. I am constantly being recreated from a very comforting spiritual power within. There will always be issues for me to confront but I am not afraid of them now.

God bless, and thank you for a wonderful year of “Switch-On Success”. Warmest Regards.

Story from E.K, ACT

Started: 19/1/98;  Finished: 28/2/99.   I am in my 4th and final year at Uni and have been doing a spring cleaning when I discovered this half written letter.  So I’ve now finished it off.

Four years ago when I was in the middle of a two year working holiday in London I was about to walk out the door to begin a two month trek in Europe.  Unfortunately, the day before I was due to depart I had a grand mal seizure.  I’d never had a fit in my life before so this came as a huge surprise.  After having a C.T. scan I was told I’d had a brain haemorrhage and was admitted to hospital.

I was then required to have an MRI scan which is similar to a C.T. scan but gives a more detailed picture. The procedure takes about 45 minutes in a tightly enclosed area where there is not room to lift your head and the noise the machine makes is similar to a huge drill.  Combining such a noise with intense migraines I was having due to the pressure from the bleeding was not something I was looking forward to.

My father called me from Australia and having recently taken part in one of your seminars, he described the development process of PP as best he could.  In the next few days I developed my PP and went into the MRI scan, ready to make use of PP.   The 45 minute procedure was over in what felt like minutes – I had gone to PP and then fallen asleep whilst the drilling was going on all around my head!

I continued to use my PP for relaxation/stress release and calming over the next few weeks.  The day before my surgery Dad arrived from Australia with a set of your tapes for me to use.  I had 6 hours of brain surgery, followed by a further 12 hours in the intensive care unit.  At this point I was still very much affected by the anaesthetic, and therefore too drowsy to concentrate on anything!

Over the course of the next few weeks I had 3 days using pain-killing injections and then decided to use my PP instead.  It didn’t totally cure me of my pain, but it certainly brought the pain down to a tolerable level and I no longer needed injections.

Since this point in time I have used my PP (both with and without the tapes) for stress release, general relaxation, to help with studies and also to help me sleep.  Your tapes have done nothing but help me immensely since day one!  I thank you and recommend them to anyone considering to buy them.   They’re well worth the time and effort in order to achieve results in many aspects of life!

It has been delightful to not only do your seminar initially Sandy, but I felt privileged to be able to help out on a subsequent seminar a couple of years later.

I look forward to more updating newsletters and I hope that this story may be of use to you.  With fond regards and best wishes.

Story from F.R, WA

I am a 79 year old pensioner who was diagnosed with lung cancer approximately 2 years ago.  Since that time I have had an operation which removed half of my left lung.  However, abnormal cells still remain resident in my system.  I have always been an active individual and believed strongly in my own capacity to control my own destiny.  My medication since the operation has assisted in relieving the pain somewhat, but as you’re probably aware this is nothing more than a bandaid measure.

I have also used a series of meditation tapes and whilst I felt that they’ve been of assistance I have never really found them convincing enough to have any real impact.   I have worked diligently on the meditation 2 to 3 times a day.  Your tape was a different story and I sensed a deep empathy with your words almost instantly.  I have often felt my hand shaking strongly and tears welling up as the dialogue proceeded.   I don’t know as yet whether this has had a positive impact on reducing the number of abnormal cells, but I feel good about what has been occurring.  Thank you for your care and for making this tape available.
